    SW 188
    CW 187
    GW 179

    I had gotten down to 182 until I made a pig outta myself this past weekend. Hoping a lot of it is excess fluid. Ate chinese and I know it has a lot of sodium in it.

    Keep up the great work everyone, we are 1/3 done the month.

    There is an interesting resource here: http://www.nwcr.ws/Research/default.htm
    (this is a website where they share research on people that have kept weight off for 5 or more years). Here are some findings of these successful losers!
    78% eat breakfast every day.
    75% weigh themselves at least once a week.
    62% watch less than 10 hours of TV per week.
    90% exercise, on average, about 1 hour per day.

    My Official weigh-in days are Mondays even though I weigh daily just to see effects of different foods and exercise.

    For Fun: Tell us how you would like to reward yourself when you meet your goal at the end of this month! I want a pretty dress and hat for my birthday April 14 & Easter.
    Up and down this month. We'll see if this under 180 stays.
    Good luck everyone. Happy logging.
