    3/14/17 - 151.4
    3/21/17 - 147.6 Spring Break!! LOTS of Spring Cleaning going on. Started C25K Sunday. Getting the kids out for walks and bike rides after "chores." It's been a good calorie burning lady few days! One more week to see how many more fat cells I can shrink and muscle cells I can grow.

    March loss: 7.2 lbs

    March goal: stop overdoing it on the sodium, and then get to 145 or less by 3/31.

    Non scale goals: continue drinking 3+ liters of water a day, stay below calories, and get into single-digit jeans by the end of the month.
    ..... :star: Single digit jeans... Check :star:

    Me: You don't cut paste, you quote yourself and then delete the qoute marks. Like I did here. This looks like I said what you & the other guy said, so I added names.

    3/28/17 - 148.2 Went so far over on sodium on Sunday that it caused physical pain, and I didn't even realize I had done it! I was achy and bloated and completely miserable. Hopefully it will all be gone by Friday; actual end of March.

    You can do it!
    For April, look for a similarly titled thread ("Lose 5lbs +...") from @SamanthaLouiseMence. If she hasn't created it yet, she will. This thread was an accidental duplicate for March.

    Pretty excited that I lost more than 5 lbs this month. Really would have liked to have lost that extra 2.2 so I would have been at a nice 5 lb increment, but I'll still take it.
    Way to go in March, everyone! Y'all did awesome! Hope to see you all kickin it in April!
