    April GW: 188
    UGW: 140

    I plan to work out 6 days a week, log everything, and really focus on responding to my body's actual hunger, not my emotions! Much easier said than done some days.

    4/5 191
    4/11 189
    4/19 188
    4/26 188
    4/30 186

    So happy to report those last two pounds are gone! I lost 8 pounds total in April! I was reading the recent responses earlier, and everyone has done so well! Great job, everyone! I'm definitely coming back for May!

    Happy Friday!! I can't believe it's already the last Friday of April... Where'd the time go???

    SW (4/6/2013): 212
    4/12: 207
    4/19: 203
    4/26: 201
    GW for April: 200
    UGW: 120-130

    I had a hiccup in the road earlier this week that caused my weight to creep up a bit before coming back down. This morning I stepped on the scale, and it read 199.6!!! So, I went to go get my camera (hey, I haven't seen under 200 in a VERY LONG TIME), got back on the scale, and the reading was higher (wasn't holding my camera). I got back on just to be sure, still 201... Aww man... :/ I'm sooooo close to being under 200!!!!!!!!

    SW (4/6/2013): 212
    4/12: 207
    4/19: 203
    4/26: 201
    4/30: 200!!!
    GW for April: 200
    UGW: 120-130

    YAYYYY!!! I MET MY GOAL WEIGHT FOR APRIL!!!!! :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :bigsmile:

    Actually, the scale read 199.8!!!!! But I'm waiting until it reads 199.0 before I finally declare that I am under 200. My weight has been bouncing between 198.8-200 for the past 3 days. I got a photo on Sunday when the scale read 198.8, but since that's not what it read today, I'm not counting it. I'm really excited to be at 200 because I haven't seen this number in a VERY LONG TIME. I'm also really excited because I met my goals for this month! It's nice to know that I am capable of achieving my weight loss goals (even if they are mini ones).

    Everyone in this challenge has been motivation for me- so thank you all!!! :flowerforyou: I can't wait to see all of you in May's challenge!

    I found the March challenge a great way to keep myself in check so am up for an April challenge.

    How do you plan to achieve your personal goal? Keep doing what I am doing food wise. Trying to walk as much as I can. Continue with day 2 of 30DS.

    General Weigh in dates, feel free to change to whatever days work best for you-
    4/1: 150
    4/8: 149
    4/15: 148

    From March 30th
    I'll play! :)

    SW:185
    CW: 158
    GW for April: 150
    UGW: 130

    How do I plan to achieve this goal?
    Same as I've been doing...eating clean, good-fuel foods, keeping the calories at some deficit, keeping up with the weight training, at least 3 times a week. Hooping, dancing, spin classes, running, yoga etc...usually 5 times a week, and when it gets warmer here, skating, kayaking, bicycling... lots of outdoors activities. :)

    Sorry I haven't kept up with posting on this challenge. I had hit a plateau for some long time, but finally lost another couple of pounds. Soooooo...

    On April 13:
    SW:185
    CW: 156
    GW for April: 150 (6 pounds to go. I hope I can do it.)
    UGW: 130

    OK, obviously I'm having issues with regular updates in the thread, but here is my current status: :D
    As of April 30th:

    SW: 185
    GW for April: Was 150. I got close. :D
    CW: 152 (So, I lost 6 pounds in April. I'm not going to whine about that. :) )
    UGW: 130 (When I get there, depending on my BF %, I will likely shoot for 125.)
