    I am so ready today. I love seeing signs of spring on the way. New beginnings and time to get ride of those coats so it is time to step it up for me. I need to get some more weight off so I can wear summer clothes hanging in my closet for 2 years now. Yes I am losing weight to get healthy but I am also losing weight to feel good about myself and to LOOK :smooched: better also. And I will do it, one day at a time.

    My March plan is: To focus on eating healthy and under my calories most days of the month. I am taking a page from WW with their bonus points system. On weekends I will give myself an extra 1000 starting Saturday to be divided however I want to eat them between Sat and Sun.

    This will not include exercise either. If I exercise this is additional food I can eat and probably will.:wink: This should work well. This will give me wiggle room without going overboard and not feeling deprived for special occasions or events over the weekend. My goal on weekends is to maintain. Eating 500 to 1000 extra calories over the weekend for me will not be a gain with or without exercise.

    I will lose more than one pound in March as I get one year older this month. Have a good week everyone and let's do our best to stick to our plans and goals whatevery they may be!:flowerforyou: TTYL!

    Going with 7 lbs since that's about 1.5 lbs a week, plus a little extra. But I'll consider anything under 200 a bonus -- can't believe I'm getting so close!

    Not sure what you mean here but if you are wondering how to check postings and post yourself. Go to message boards from your home page. Once you click no "Message Boards", then click on "My Topics" found at the top of the page. Then find the challenge and anything you have posted to. I see you have not posted much.....:-) Hope this is what you were looking for.

    <If you don't mind me asking, what are you getting surgery for? Is everything okay?>

    I don't mind you asking.:) I am having a spinal fusion done on my neck on Friday. Hopefully I will be home by Monday but recovery will hamper my weight loss I am sure. It has been slowed down already because I have been off work not allowed to do much for a month. It will just take a little more effort :)

    Good luck to you Chancie72. I had a spinal fusion in my neck about 15 years ago. After the surgery I have had no long term limitations.
