    Well after a great March where I did better than my goal, here goes again! This month though I will be going onto maintenance from the 20th as I can't lose anymore between my final wedding dress fitting and the big day, don't want it falling down as I walk down the aisle!

    SW: 300.5
    CW: 272.25
    GW: 266

    Weigh in Dates:
    4/1 - 272.25
    4/8 - 270
    4/15 - 270.5 ( :-( it was my hen weekend though)!
    4/22 - 267.75
    4/28
    End of Month (or whatever weigh in days you use)

    Total weight lost: 4.5 so far hoping to hit 266!

    Just for fun: Spring is a time of renewal and rebirth. What new event, habit or change are you going to accomplish this month?

    This month I am going to eat my easter eggs in moderation until they're gone rather than eating them all in one day like normal! - 4/22 - still have almost my whole easter egg left, doing well!!
