    For me, priorities shifted AND I haven't cooked my meals lately --> so, eating out is not helping the diet, on top of that, i've been feeling so tired lately. All I want all the time is sleep these days. I hope to do better next month. See you all in April!

    Hit my goal! Officially lost 6 pounds in March and bought myself a new skirt to celebrate. Sad I didn't have a loss today but expected it - ate out a lot last week, drank and had salty foods. I'm just happy I tracked everything and didn't gain.

    Lost 1.5 Kgs. Less than what I would've liked
    Last week couldn't work out ,but been full of meetings
    It was really motivational to see the others progress
    Congrats everyone. A pound lost is a pound lost.
    Look forward to joining next month.
    One last point- I've lost more inches than pounds and perhaps
    Some others have too. Maybe that's something to add to the
    Next month's challenge

    Not exactly 5 lbs, but close enough that I am calling it a win!

    This group really helped keep me motivated for the month. I am 3.8 lbs away from my MFP short term goal and 4.8 lbs away from a healthy BMI!!
