    Going to have to get back on track. Really need to lose some weight before our Cruise in September. I would be happy just to lose 20lbs by Sept and keep it off.
    Then work on losing another 20lbs by Feb for our 3 week Hawaii trip.
    I'm thinking Tuesday will be my weigh-in days. I have Tuesdays off for the next month and am hoping it will stay that way.
    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE.

    OK! Let's do this together! I will be happy with 10 pounds even- every little bit will help me feel better.

    Thank you @RubyRed427 for once again setting up this challenge!

    Happy May everyone!

    For the past 4 months I have been averaging about 2.5 lbs per month. During the last round I lost just over 5 lbs but I had gained 2 lbs while on vacation in February and it took me a couple weeks to get that back off.

    I would love to lose 3 or 4 lbs per month but I doubt that will be in the cards for me at this point in my journey so my goal for this round will be to lose at least another 7 lbs. I have increased my exercise over the past couple weeks and, with the weather improving and gardening season approaching, I will be more active in general.

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
    250’s; 240’s; 230’s; 220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180’s; 170's; 160's; 150’s


    Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.


    05/01-193.0-(Trend Weight: 192.2)- Good luck to us all. I know I’m going to clearly need it!

    05/02-193.6-(Trend Weight: 192.3)- The madness must stop! When I saw the scale I just wanted to crawl back into bed and put my head under the covers. I would love to get outside but it’s just too cold. Snow yesterday and today. It wouldn’t be northern Michigan without snow in May, right? I’ve got to cut the snacks and do some inside workouts. Maybe a little dancing will lift my spirits while burning some calories.
