😀😀😀***APRIL 2024 WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE***😀😀😀

enlightenme3

😀 Welcome all new first timers to this challenge and "Hello again" to those returning for another month, another year, another round. 😀

I joined back in September of 2021, which was my first month back on MFP. In the first 9 months, I lost 40 pounds and use this challenge as motivation to stay on track. It is nice to have a medium-term goal that gets broken down into manageable chunks.

Pick your own goal, check in once per week, and at the very end of the month. Let's keep encouraging each other & staying focused on our individual goals.

You can change the dates to suit you, but try to keep it weekly as it shows off the weekly progress better😀

Pick whatever unit suits you -- lbs, kg’s or stones.

Feel free to copy & paste the chart:

For those unsure how to do your weekly weight input:
When you want to do your weekly update do a search for your original post, copy and paste as a new post in the add post box then you can edit in your new weekly weight. A lot of people also maintain their post in a notes application on their device and just cut and paste into a new post.

It’s not a race go at your on pace, imagine where you could be in 6 months time!😀

Best of luck to everyone - have fun! 😀😀

Remember to bookmark⭐️ this group- makes it easier to find 😀

Hi everyone - looking forward to all of your shares for April! I enjoyed the March group very much. Thank you for the challenge @enlightenme3. I want to lose weight for health and general well-being. My goal this month is to increase exercise (thank goodness the weather is finally a little better here in Calgary!), track daily sticking to goal calories, and increase water intake. I'm F, 58 years old and 5' 5 and 1/2".
Best wishes to all!

Lost 40 pounds here about 14 years ago. Kept it off for awhile, but fell off the wagon, and well here I am! I'm over 50 this time around, 56 to be exact, so it's harder than it was before.

Realizing I should have started sooner, especially with a trip coming up in June. It's been a challenging year; my kid age 26 spent the entirety of 2023 in the hospital. Now, thankfully, my child is finally home and on the path to recovery, and I'm fully committed to being here for every step of that journey. However, to ensure I can truly be present and healthy for my family, I know I need to shed some pounds.

Trying to lean up and gain muscle for summer. I was maintaining around 120 lbs but I have increased my lifting weights and hunger has increased. I put on 5lbs. I think some of that is water retention since I got off a prescription diuretic.
