tried on my pre-preggo jeans yesterday and they fit! YESSSSS! Loving it!0

I've been losing about 2lbs per week. This has been going on for about 6 weeks! I am losing weight I had gained after last Summer. It feels good to have everything working together...logging, exercise, and DEFICIT! It was always the deficit, not the logging or exercise, that hindered me.0

put baby in the backpack and went for an hour long walk yesterday. Hoping to get on the Wiifit tonight.0

I've lost 16 pounds of the 30 I put on during my pregnancy. Baby is 1 week old. I am planning on being 20 pounds down by the end of March so I need to lose 4 pounds this month.
I've lost 3.8 more pounds and am at 19 pounds lost since having baby. Only need one more pound to reach this months goal. Maybe I should change my goal.

lost 6.5 pounds so far this month. Changing my goal to reaching 160 by April 1st.0 -
March 3rd = Baseline determined and noted
March 10th = -3/4#
March 17th = -1/2# from basline ( so up 1/4 from last week)
I will weigh in again on weds as sometimes Mondays aren't my best weigh in day.
Successes:
+ Got in all my workouts
+ met goal of no more than three alcohlic drinks for the week (2 5oz wines and one light beer)
Challenges:
-not eating at as much a deficit as I'd like. Set my daily goal to 1770 with the idea of staying there or under regardless of workout claories burned. If do it right then I 'd be set up to loose a 1/2# a week. Its so easy to eat over and not feel like I ate much....0 -
Everybody is working hard and making progress!
I have a COLD today. No energy to exercise. BUT I also am not hungry, so at least I am not struggling with calorie issues. Still, I LIKE to exercise.
Hopefully I'll be able to have an early AM workout tomorrow. Mornings are rough with a cold!0 -

How is it going?0 -
Hi Mel,
I'm still here. Spring break this week so didn't weigh in as the scale I use is at work.
March 3rd = Baseline determined and noted
March 10th = -3/4#
March 17th = -1/2# from basline ( so up 1/4 from last week)
March 24th= ? not weighed in yet this week
Successes:
? I don't if I had any this last week....
Challenges:
I've decided to stopped food diary log in for a while and use portions and food groups at about 1600 kcals. It's spring break so I will be a little off I think.
-I pulled my S-L joint (low back pain) over the weekend and seeing a back cracker tomorrow. So I will mostly walk and stretch this next week no weight lifting.0 -

got my Zumba on
Love Zumba!!!! I like Zumba, but I am somewhat uncoordinated. I like to hang out in the last row, then the instructor turns around and suddenly the last row is the first and the center of attention.0 -
oops I never updated.
End of February I started a program called the 21 Day Fix. workouts and eating plan. After the 21 days I lost almost 6 pounds.
I have since put one, maybe one and a half back on. I somewhat expected that and I've gone a bit over-board. Now looking to keep it even before starting up my next program.

Congrats to all of you that met your goal or made progress toward your personal goals. :drinker: Bravo! :happy: March proved to be extremely challenging for me. I did not lose anything, but I maintained. Maintaining is a win for me! I hope everyone will take on April's challenge.0
