    How do you plan to achieve your personal goal? I'm working with a personal trainer and going to the gym a minimum of 3x/week. Using the food tracker here is a big help, as is wearing my heart monitor as it seems to link with the cardio equipment for accurate caloric count. Good luck everyone!

    SW: 182
    CW: 176.6 (this is a little high from eatting too much at Easter dinner. I was more like 172)
    GW for April: 168 (this would represent about 4lbs from where I was March 29th)
    UGW: 130

    How do you plan to achieve your personal goal? I lowered my calorie goal (net) to 1330. I had it at 1500 and was fine with that during the week but was going over EVERY weekend. I figure keeping it to 1330 during the week will keep my overall weekly calories lower even if I still end up eating more like 2000 on Sat and Sunday.

    I also plan to run a lot (have a 10K on April 21st). I would like to finish April by having run 50 miles. After my 10K, I will focus more on strength training again.

    Thanks for doing this.

    UGW: 146

    Reached a pound over my goal weight in September and haven't seen the 140s since.
    I really would love to see the scale move in the other direction.
    Need to pay more attention to hunger and fullness.
    Allow some degree of hunger.
    Move more.
    Treat myself with more healthy foods.
    And stop eating in the middle of the night!!!!
