April Weight Loss Challenge

I'm a few days late for this challenge, but I'm in. I'd love to lose 10 lbs this month but I'm setting my goal at around 8 lbs for the month because I am also part of a dietbet challenge to lose 4% of the weight in 28 days... which puts me around 8-8.5 lbs to lose by the beginning of May.
So my goals for April:
lose 4% of the weight (around 8.5 lbs)
complete all 30 days of 30 day shred
walk more miles/steps this month (get closer to reaching my fitbet goals each day)0 -
I've never done this before. We do we post our first week stats? I know you said 4/5.0
-
Here is where we check in, I'm thinking?
okay check in for 4/5: 151
so down 3 lbs (I don't think it's a true three lbs but still nice to see on the scale)
Hope everyone had a good week. I had a mix but learning as I go.

Reached a pound over (147) 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!!!!0 -

I will achieve my goal weight by tracking every bite I eat, making better food choices, and getting some form of exercise in EVERY day. Even if it is just a 30 min walk with the dog.

Ok, so I have to make some adjustments to my CW in my first post. I hadn't weighed myself and guessed at how much my current weight was on the 1st and weighed myself on the 2nd. It was a nice surprise, I weighed less than I thought. Yay!

I had hoped for a bit more but any loss is good after being off track for so long.
My plan for next week is to keep ;logging daily and get my butt back out side and walking. The weather is suposed to be great!0 -

I've been busting my butt in the gym. Doing the c25k program and some other cardio (bike, elliptical) with some weight training sprinkled in. Have to work on my eating. I'm good with calories, though I probably wasn't eating enough last week (only lost 1 pound)...but I'm not eating as healthy as I could.0 -
I'm in - always need something to challenge me to keep focused

Continue working out at the gym for 35-40 minutes Monday to Friday (strength training alternating with cardio). Also starting a walking challenge this month to walk everyday and hopefully when the weather warms up get my bike out on the bike trails.

I worked well last summer/fall lost 30 pounds. Fell off the exercise wagon when the weather turned bleak and I couldn't comfortably walk outside. I gained back 6 pounds over the holidays and then I was sick and hurt my back but have maintained that weight for 2 months. It's been nice enough to walk this week and last week- though I haven't been tracking it in here I have been walking. I came here today to get motovation. Thanks people.....0 -

I lost 25lbs while my husband was deployed but gained it all back when he returned =( I just can't get myself motivated to do anything about it. I have a spin bike and all the dvd's but without the instructor when I get tired I just stop instead of pushing myself like I did in the classes.

I'm part of the Move Your *kitten* group this month. Having set a goal of 35 miles this month should contribute to the weight loss. Also want to continue working on removing unhealthy foods from my diet.0
