    Ive just started back on MFP so think this challenge is just the thing for my motivation.

    I am going to use my starting weight from only a week ago as this is like a "fresh start". Im in kgs not pounds so I have 2.3 kg to lose which is 5 lb.

    SW 63.5
    CW 62.3
    GW 56.0

    If I lose my 2.3 by 31 March, I'm going to get a new pair of dress black pants. I will also post my weigh ins on a Friday.

    I am looking for any motivation I can get to get back on track. I hit my goal weight in May of last year, kept it off thru early fall...and then all those holidays hit...and I gained about 8 lbs back, so here I am again! Trying to stay motivated! I know I can lose it, but I do have to work at it.
