    Yeah, I'm in.
    I lost 7.3 pounds for March. Started at 202.4. I want to keep my momentum.
    I highly doubt I can lose 5 pounds, it will be more like 3 pounds. But, I want to try!

    SW: 202.4
    CW: 195.1
    GW: 190.0

    Weigh in Dates:

    31.3 : 195.1
    3.4:
    7.4
    14.4
    21.4
    26.4

    Will be off to Greece from 27th to 30th.
    After checking achievable loss per week, 5 pounds is about 2 kilos a month, 500 grams a week (about a pound) yeah, thats do- able.

    a friend of mine at work recently said she wanted to lose some weight and we made a pact to lose 5lbs this month, would like to use this as extra motivation. With spring coming up, I think it will be easier to get motivated to walk around outside

    Oh, I'm in! :) Might be tricky as I have a 10-day visit at my partner's place coming up (and we tend to eat a fair amount of chocolate (he has a fast metabolism and can eat whatever without worrying, the *kitten*)), buuut with good enough planning I think I can do it.

    At the moment I assume I weigh about 63 kgs, would like to get to 60 by the end of the month.
    I'll weigh myself when I am home - unfortunately don't have a digital scale though, so won't be 100 % accurate.
