I don't know what went wrong this week. We ate out more than usual with my mother in law visiting, but I made good choices. I exercised more (walking, yoga, etc.) and drank a ton of water. Still 8 pounds to go by Easter. Probably not going to make it. But I hope I get close.

Keep going everyone. There's still another week to go, and even though everyone may not meet their goal, you probably weigh less than you did at the start of this. Yay for progress!0 -

Couldn't agree more!! I won't reach my goal, but I'm close and a heck of a lot closer than I was at the beginning of the year. And I can be very proud of that!

I made it! My current loss is 21 lbs since I re-started my dieting in late January. Didn't expect to get there a week early (actually, I expected to get here a week late or so), but I'm excited I did. (And even more excited that I'm so close to one-derland again. )
Starting Weight: 222
Easter Goal Weight: 202
Current Weight: 201
Next Goal Weight (by memorial day? or maybe before my birthday in July?): 180
Ultimate GW ...someday: 150ish or 160ish
Thanks for this challenge! It was a good sub-goal for me. This type of thing is a good reminder/motivator, and I like to have many reminders/motivators so that if one of them starts losing its luster, the others are there as a backup.0 -

Awesome job! And amazing progress! Can't wait to see more people post their updates since we are so close to Easter now! My weekly weigh in is tomorrow, and then I'll try to weigh again Sunday morning to see then too!

And I'm not even upset about it like I thought I would be. We bought a house this week! And between playdates, missed meals, extra caffeine, some good choices and some stress choices, and some bloating lol!, I'm happy it wasn't more! I'm proud of myself for what I did lose, and making better eating choices a habit instead of a rare occasion. I'm ready to start a new challenge! How about 20 pounds by 4th of July! ?!?!?! Who's with me?!?!?!!!!

Down 1.2 lbs this week. Just over 5 lbs to go by Easter! 19 days! It's still a lot to lose in that amount of time, but I think I'll get very close. We're almost there. And then we'll need a "Lose 20 lbs by 4th of July" challenge or something like that!
I was thinking the same thing! 20 poundsby 4th of July! I'm in!0 -

Congratulations! I loved this challenge and having something to help keep me accountable!0 -
So I've been visiting family all week and trying really hard to lose my last 1.3 pounds. I managed to find a scale this morning, and even though I'd like to use my own, going off this scale, I'm exactly at my goal weight of 247!!
SW: 267
Current: 247
Congrats to everyone else, even if you didn't hit your goal, you've still gotten started losing weight!!! This was so great for me and I hope to continue losing!0 -
I didn't make it. I lost 15 pounds total. Thanks for the challenge.

Final update as well. I also only lost 15 lbs for this challenge. I'm still down 17 total though since I came back to MFP at Christmas. Not too shabby I think!! This was definitely a great challenge, and fun checking in every week. Congrats to all who lost something during this challenge, because really you've all won!!0
