    Total weight lost: No weight lost. I'm guessing it's because I went on a vacation.

    NSV: Worthy to note that despite no changes on the scale, I have gotten 'stronger' because I can lift heavier things with ease now :) I will work hard again in April and this time, hopefully, I will reach my goal weight.

    Congrats to everyone who met their goals or successfully lost a few pounds!

    So very depressed this morning. I really did work hard to stay at or under calories this week, and all I see is a .4 gain. :(
    2.2 loss for the month is really not what I was looking forward to. Why am I so stuck at 180? ! :(
    Looking forward to everyone else's posts to help pull me out of this blue mood. Hope everyone else did better than I did. Maybe I'll weigh again on Monday, to see if I can still lose a bit more before the very end of the month.

    So close. We'll see what happens over the next 3 days and what my end of the month total is. Trendweight.com is showing me at a trending loss of 4.7 lbs for the month (as of today), so either way I am going to take this as a win!
