    I was so motivated post pregnancy last year and once I was back to my pre pregnancy it's like I gave up! I've been off and on all of the past year. I'm hoping I can get back into the swing of things :)

    For Fun: Each week, as you post your weights, include one thing you did to boost your motivation or one thing that inspired you during that week.

    Good luck everyone. Let's get it done in April.

    Good luck everyone, I really hope posting my weight each week will be the motivation I need to stop regaining everything that I lost (which I have been steadily doing for the past couple of weeks).

    Yeah, I'm in.
    I lost 7.3 pounds for March. Started at 202.4. I want to keep my momentum.
    I highly doubt I can lose 5 pounds, it will be more like 3 pounds. But, I want to try!

    SW: 202.4
    CW: 195.1
    GW: 190.0

    Weigh in Dates:

    31.3 : 195.1
    3.4:
    7.4
    14.4
    21.4
    26.4

    Will be off to Greece from 27th to 30th.
    After checking achievable loss per week, 5 pounds is about 2 kilos a month, 500 grams a week (about a pound) yeah, thats do- able.

    a friend of mine at work recently said she wanted to lose some weight and we made a pact to lose 5lbs this month, would like to use this as extra motivation. With spring coming up, I think it will be easier to get motivated to walk around outside

    Oh, I'm in! :) Might be tricky as I have a 10-day visit at my partner's place coming up (and we tend to eat a fair amount of chocolate (he has a fast metabolism and can eat whatever without worrying, the *kitten*)), buuut with good enough planning I think I can do it.

    At the moment I assume I weigh about 63 kgs, would like to get to 60 by the end of the month.
    I'll weigh myself when I am home - unfortunately don't have a digital scale though, so won't be 100 % accurate.
