There has been no movement on my scales in the right direction for several days now. I want to lose 5 pounds in the next 11 days, so I can tell my Doc I've lost 25 pounds since he last saw me. He told me he would consider taking me off blood pressure meds if I lost 20 pounds.

Hi All,
This is my 7th month with this group! I'm 5'2" and I've just hit my target weight of around 124 lbs. One of my goals at this point is to lose maybe 2 more pounds or so and figure out what my maintenance weight range should be. Another goal is to start running again.
Original starting weight: 160 lbs
Goal for March: 122.0 lbs ?
March 1: DNW. I'm sick! I feel terrible. I am not going to weigh or log until I feel better.
March 2: 122.6 ☘️ I logged. I was very sick yesterday and the previous day, and didn't eat very much. Today I am feeling a little bit better.
March 3: 121.8 ☘️ I logged. Well I think my weight loss is because of my sickness, and I would like to stop losing at this point. I logged yesterday and my calorie intake was a little under goal but not super low. I'm going to increase my calories a bit. I am getting better but still sick. I am looking forward to getting better and getting back to routine, getting to my March goal of exercising, and also eating more than just chicken noodle soup and juice!
March 4: 123.2 ☘️ I logged. Feeling better and I definitely have my appetite back.

Hello! My name is Tara and my journey has been a roller coaster. I've been on MFP for 12 years now. I've had great success in the past. But a lot of life happens during that time. I have a 5 year old daughter and have been maintaining post pregnancy weight since then.. sometimes it gets a little higher like it did recently.. but I started back at it very recently this week, on March 4th. I've been logging and weighing daily since then. I have slipped up, but try to be mindful everyday. I've still made progress though.
3/4: (SW this time around) 187.0
3/5: 186.0
3/6: 185.4
3/7: 184.8
3/8: 184.6
3/9: 183.6
I know that when we first start something, water weight goes first and we see a big difference in the beginning. I expect it to not go as smoothly as March goes on.. so it makes setting a goal for March difficult. Initially, I wanted to lose 10 pounds by May but I might be able to do that in March (if I lose 2 lbs/wk). But i do want to be realistic, lol. I will set my March goal for 179.
My ultimate goal is 155-160.. for now, lol!

I'm so excited to be back for March- hello to everyone! 😊 I'm Kat, 32, 5'1". I have 5 cats and live in the country. I think March will be cold and windy here, but I'm happy to be moving towards warmer days.
Start Weight: 122.6 | Feb. Loss: 5.4lbs | Goal Weight: 100-110 (I'll know when I get closer and may switch to measurements)

3/08: 116.4 I’m feeling a little better today and trying to focus on being kind to myself and shaking off the obsessive self-criticism, which is my biggest struggle. It’ll be a chilly weekend indoors, but I’m working on planning my first ever garden and thinking of spring. Happy weekend and many well wishes to everyone!
3/09: 115.8 Big overnight drop so it might take a few days to stick, but 116.0 used to be one of my uh-oh numbers(where you start to pay attention!) so it’s a little wild to be below that for the first time in a few years. My most recent uh-oh number was 126 so 10lbs down from that!3 -

My name is Cindy, 5’3, 174lbs. I have always been aware of my weight and was at my healthiest 2016-2020. 2020-2023 I gained around 40+lbs and have struggled with trying to lose the weight. I started focusing on losing weight in Sept 2023 but have been very lenient about it. I want to spend March focusing more on my goals and make some progress. I am doing a 75 Soft Challenge and also will be using this group for tracking my goals.

I have a chronic back injury limiting how I exercise and am recovering from a sprained ankle. So I have to be creative with exercise.
My main problem is pain and emotional eating, because food fixes everything (if only)
I have made this journey many times in my life, and hope to someday make it a permanent lifestyle change. My longest run maintaining a healthy weight was 9 yrs and then my world fell apart in 2015 leading to my highest weight of 203, and I have yo yo'd the same 30-50 lbs over and over again since then.
Im tried of feeling sick and tired, my health is now being effected so it's time for a serious change.
I know what I have to do, I just need to do it and stick to it!!!!

Hey friends! My name is B - I live with my husband and two kids and work in community mental health. I've never not struggled with my weight, so I'm focusing on long term habits so I can live a longer and more active life with my family.

8 glasses of water💧
Self Care Activity 🧶
Sept weightloss: 6.7 lbs
Oct weightloss: 3.1 lbs
Nov weightloss: 2.3 lbs
Dec weightloss: 2 lbs
Jan weightloss: +1
Feb weightloss: 1.8 lbs
💚🍀💚🍀MARCH💚🍀💚🍀
1: 🥙💧🧶
2: 🥙💧🧶 Took the plunge and cut off about 8 inches of hair!
3: 🥙💧🧶🏃♀️

5: 🥙💧 I meal prep everything for the week and this week I made the mistake of making a little treat that might be nice to have as an afternoon pick me up. I made macaroons. They are delicious. Chewy. Sweet. Perfect. They are 170 calories for a tiny little cookie. After 3 days of "just one more" I'm popping those suckers in the freezer. At least it will slow me down...

Hello I'm Darlene. Retired, 63-year-old. Married (Greg), one adult daughter (Allyson), and one goldendoodle (Monty). I have been on this weight loss journey since January 2023. I found MFP in March and this group in April. Almost a year with some of these amazing people. 💖I wouldn't be where I am today without this group (along with a couple other challenges I am in); I am so thankful for their support and accountability. 💖
My Goals for March
⚖️ Lose 4 pounds (always my goal), but happy with any loss
👣 17k Steps Daily with one day of rest
📝 Log Daily
🥗 Stay under my calorie range
💪 Strength Train 3 days per week
🧘♀️ Tai Chi or Yoga 1 day per week
🫀 Aerobics 3 days per week
💦 6+ glasses of water
👣 📝 🥗 💪 🧘♀️ 🫀💦
Highest Weight 228

March starting weight: 156.8
🍃🪁 MARCH 🪁🍃March 01: 156.4 😁 👣 📝 💪 💦 Busy day yesterday. For Christmas my husband makes a Daddy-Do list for Allyson. This year she wanted to convert her coat closet into a pantry. We got that done yesterday. I spent the day handing tools (kind of felt like a dental hygenist- LOL). In the down time, I helped her with her taxes. Spent most of the day there, had take-out for lunch. I did get my walk in before we went, and did a strength train session when we got home. I am tracking differently this month, so I went over my calorie limit a little if I don't count my exercise. Was happy with the scale today.March 8: 154.8 😁👣 📝 🥗🫀💦 I'm doing the hard 75 challenge, in the challenge you are supposed to take a selfie every day. I just wanted to point out how important it is to take these on throughout your weight loss journey. I NEVER took pictures of myself. It was really hard to find a before picture. In the beginning of my journey I also didn't take any. Those around me (and myself) didn't see much difference because I've been taking it off real slow and they (and I) saw me every day. It wasn't until 50 pounds lost that l did an after picture. Please take pictures of yourself as you go through this process (you only have to share them with yourself) - It was so nice to see the difference and to know that all this hard work was actually working and noticable.
March 2: 156.8 👣 📝 🫀💦Quiet day yesterday. Made some chili for dinner, the uptick is probably sodium. Figuring out this new tracking, it is really hard to stay under without my exercise. But I'll give it a try for a week to see how things go. I was very hungry, and had a protein bar late in the day which put me over.
March 3: 156.8 👣 📝 🥗 💪💦 Nice Saturday. Started the day with a 3 mile walk at our favorite trail. Started to sprinkle a little as we finished. It was kind of refreshing. Make a wonderful pot of chicken soup (I just love soup), and homemade bread for dinner. Cut back on the salt - it was delicious. I watched an episode of Skin Tight last night - don't ask me why - but I couldn't change the channel. It was so scary. Loose skin was/is a really big fear for me. I guess I came away feeling pretty good - as mine is NOWHERE near what they are experiencing and my hubby was wonderful - telling me I look fabulous!
March 4: 156.8 👣 📝 🥗🫀💦 It was a beautiful weekend in Connecticut, warm and sunny. Spent a lot of time outside enjoying the sunshine. It had a very busy week - of doing nothing! Don't know where the time goes - but life is just flying by.
March 5: 156 😁 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦Another nice day in Connecticut, got in a 4-mile walk in the morning instead of our usual 3-miles. Bingo night with Mom - and didn't munch on any of the NUMEROUS snacks that they put on the table. Didn't win (I rarely do), but a good night. Mom was in good spirits - although gets quite frustrated when she doesn't win.
March 6: 155.6 😁 📝 🥗 🧘♀️ 🫀💦 I gave myself a smile for the weight loss, but it was a sad day. A colleague from my old work place passed away. Heart attack at 50; he was one of those that you just had to love. Quirky, a wonderful sense of humor, treated everyone with respect, hardworking, and was so appreciative of anything you did for him. He will be missed on this earth by all who knew him.
March 7: 155.4 😁 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦 Don't know where the day went yesterday - just flew by. We got our outside walk in before the raindrops, which was nice. Then before I knew it the day was over. Life is just "March"ing by and I'm try to catch up. Today I will focus on what I am doing instead of letting life just plass me buy.
Mar 9: 154.8 👣 📝 🥗 💪 💦
Mar 10: 154.2 😁👣 📝 🥗🫀💦Yesterday was our monthly visit to see Greg's 90+ year old cousin. Gone most of the day - but couldn't sleep the night before so got up at 3AM and jumped on the treadmill - at least I go my steps in. We eat out - so expected a up-tick today due to the sodium and lack of water while there - but I drank it all when we got home, so think that worked. I ate a very small dinner and made it under my calorie goal.

I seem to be stuck in a rut. This may have something to do with my new addiction to homemade sourdough bread. Luckily, we finished off a loaf yesterday and froze a loaf in waiting.

I'm so excited to be back for March- hello to everyone! 😊 I'm Kat, 32, 5'1". I have 5 cats and live in the country. I think March will be cold and windy here, but I'm happy to be moving towards warmer days.
Start Weight: 122.6 | Feb. Loss: 5.4lbs | Goal Weight: 100-110 (I'll know when I get closer and may switch to measurements)

3/09: 115.8 Big overnight drop so it might take a few days to stick, but 116.0 used to be one of my uh-oh numbers(where you start to pay attention!) so it’s a little wild to be below that for the first time in a few years. My most recent uh-oh number was 126 so 10lbs down from that!
3/10: 116.6 Bounced back a little higher than expected, but I’m in a much better spot as far as obsession which is much more important. Still making good choices and getting in some exercise.2 -

03/10-178.8-(Trend Weight 178.9)- I sure have been eating out and away from home a lot more lately. Yesterday I ended up having some ice cream. It did not show up on the scale today so I don’t know if it will rear its ugly head another day or if I got away with it. Only time will tell.

Hi All,
This is my 7th month with this group! I'm 5'2" and I've just hit my target weight of around 124 lbs. One of my goals at this point is to lose maybe 2 more pounds or so and figure out what my maintenance weight range should be. Another goal is to start running again.
Original starting weight: 160 lbs
Goal for March: 122.0 lbs ?
March 1: DNW. I'm sick! I feel terrible. I am not going to weigh or log until I feel better.
March 2: 122.6 ☘️ I logged. I was very sick yesterday and the previous day, and didn't eat very much. Today I am feeling a little bit better.
March 3: 121.8 ☘️ I logged. Well I think my weight loss is because of my sickness, and I would like to stop losing at this point. I logged yesterday and my calorie intake was a little under goal but not super low. I'm going to increase my calories a bit. I am getting better but still sick. I am looking forward to getting better and getting back to routine, getting to my March goal of exercising, and also eating more than just chicken noodle soup and juice!
March 4: 123.2 ☘️ I logged. Feeling better and I definitely have my appetite back.
March 5: 123.4
March 6: 123.2 ☘️ I logged

5: 🥙💧 I meal prep everything for the week and this week I made the mistake of making a little treat that might be nice to have as an afternoon pick me up. I made macaroons. They are delicious. Chewy. Sweet. Perfect. They are 170 calories for a tiny little cookie. After 3 days of "just one more" I'm popping those suckers in the freezer. At least it will slow me down...

I have a chronic back injury limiting how I exercise and am recovering from a sprained ankle. So I have to be creative with exercise.
My main problem is pain and emotional eating, because food fixes everything (if only)
I have made this journey many times in my life, and hope to someday make it a permanent lifestyle change. My longest run maintaining a healthy weight was 9 yrs and then my world fell apart in 2015 leading to my highest weight of 203, and I have yo yo'd the same 30-50 lbs over and over again since then.
Im tried of feeling sick and tired, my health is now being effected so it's time for a serious change.
I know what I have to do, I just need to do it and stick to it!!!!

My name is Cindy, 5’3, 174lbs. I have always been aware of my weight and was at my healthiest 2016-2020. 2020-2023 I gained around 40+lbs and have struggled with trying to lose the weight. I started focusing on losing weight in Sept 2023 but have been very lenient about it. I want to spend March focusing more on my goals and make some progress. I am doing a 75 Soft Challenge and also will be using this group for tracking my goals.

1/2024: 171.6 - 2/2024: 174.4
March Goals
▫️lose 8lbs
▫️strength train + cardio or walk every day
▫️drink 100oz of water every day
▫️read every day
▫️drink during social events only
3/4 — 175.4lbs: I had an indulgent weekend since we were out of town, but I expect to be back to my “regular” weight in the next couple days
3/5 — 173.8lbs: I’m surprised I dropped down so quickly but not complaining. Did a strength workout but also went to a cafe with a friend and might’ve overindulged. We will see how I wake up tomorrow.
3/6 — 171.6lbs: Woke up a few lbs lighter and very excited about it but tomorrow I go to Disneyland so I know it’ll bring my weight back up by Friday. Still happy with the progress I’ve made this week.
3/7 — 172lbs: Disney day
3/8 — 174.8lbs: as expected
3/9 — 174lbs: again, as expected
3/10 — no weigh in: decided not to weigh myself today because it was a bad eating weekend. Tomorrow I will and I know it’s gonna be tough to deal with it. Weekends are my worst days and always make me fall back.

March SW: 66.3kg
March GW: 65kg
Ultimate GW: 55kg
March 1: 66.3kg
March 2: 65.8 kg
March 3: 65.7 kg (surprise surprise. Guess my run yesterday helped compensate for the heavy lunch).
March 4: 66.1 kg oops
March 5: 65.6 kg yay!
March 6: 65.5 yes! 3 kgs down from my heaviest weight in recent times !
March 7: 65.5 kg
March 8: 66.0 kg
March 9: 67.1 kg (After three heavy meals for son’s birthday celebrations yesterday). I don’t regret that, we need happy carefree days and eating on select days or else this diet / lifestyle isn’t worth having. I can revert the gains.
March 10: 66.1
