    I'm getting so close to my goal of 240. Only 2.1 lbs to go. I'm experiencing a bit of a slow down in weight loss, but I know I'll get there!

    Looking forward to the next challenge, too. Living in a northern climate I am more inactive than I am in the warmer months. I'm already busier and once I get my gardens going, my bike out regularly, and other things I hope my monthly losses will increase a little bit.

    Just one week to go! I can't believe this challenge is almost over already.

    I have hardly put a dent in my weight loss, but I think I'm in the stage of barely losing anything. But I'm working out and doing a lot of strength training, so I'm pretty sure the muscles are leveling out the fat loss. That's ok with me!

    Hope everyone is doing well!

    You guys are doing great!!!

    I havent lost anything in the month but I did manage to drop just a couple pounds during the challenge. I don't think I'll go much lower, but that's ok. I'm still kickboxing and doing strength training 6 days/week and my body fat percentage has been dropping, so I'm happy with that!

    Non-scale goal - be prepared to run a 12k the first weekend in May

    CW: 216.4 Made it a good portion of the way to goal and dropped another clothing size. Fit into a size 12! dress yesterday.

    As far as my non-scale goal, I admit I stopped training for 12k at the beginning of April when the family event that was going to put me in the vicinity of the race was rescheduled to June. However, I am still walking regularly and have added bike riding back in now that the weather is nice again.

    I'm so proud of all of you! Everyone has done so well! Don't feel discouraged if you didn't meet your goal, you still worked towards it and that's what really matters! We all know how hard it is to lose weight/maintain, so every ounce of energy you put into it is worth it...every ounce matters! I'm excited to see how this next challenge goes!
