    My weight spiked back up. I am currently trying to find a gastrologist because it feels like this constipation is trying to slowly kill me.

    Here I go again! Actually gained weight in February, despite good logging and lots of working out, but I measured myself this morning and have lost 1& 1/2inches, so I am more convinced that I am gaining muscle. I am not so worried about a few pounds of weight gain if that is the case!

    Height 5'6"
    HW: 185
    CW: 149.3
    Mar Goal: 146
    Ultimate goal 135 (maybe... may depend on muscle gain and how I feel!)

    Mar 2: 149.3

    I've been absent for a touch. I was Wally Amadeus previously, but since I upgraded my Garmin and had to re-register for reasons too boring to describe, I am now Formerly Wally Amadeus. If any of my prior friends would like to friend me, that would be awesome!

    Starting: 155
    Current: 148.8
    March goal: 147

    I'm 5 ft 8ish inches, and I've reconciled myself to the fact that my body isn't going to let go of those lbs in great big rushes.

    I'd love to say I sweated, disciplined and powered off that weight, but between a family member's hospitalization and a cold, it came off on its own!

    Take care, all! This is going to be OUR year!

    I'm a bit late with March check-in, here it goes:

    Height: 1m67 / 5'6"
    HW: 64 kg / 141 lbs (like a year after pregnancy, so no excuse)
    UGW: 57 kg / 126 lbs (20-22% BF)
    January SW: 62.4 kg / 137.6 lbs (~34% body fat)
    February SW: 59.6 kg / 131.4 lbs & 31.5% / 18.77 kg BF
    March SW: 58.5 kg / 129 lbs & 30.5% / 18.1 kg BF
    March goal: maintain or lose while losing BF.

    Plan for March:
    • be caferul with "I eat this today and just eat less tomorrow" mindset. I've been eating close to maintenance recently, and from maintenance to overeating there's just one small step
    • start recomping, my scale readings tell me I'm becoming skinny fat even though I look different than those 30% BF reference pictures
    • look into bodyweight exercises and go running now that the weather is not an excuse anymore

    March goal: 135 lbs

    I’m also a few days late. I’m so embarrassed to say that I’ve gained so much weight over the last 2 weeks and my starting weight this month is ridiculously high :s

    5th March 65kg

    Goal weight for this month needs to be aggressive, so I’m going for 62kg.

    @mrssunshine78 , crossing fingers it goes off fast! And happy belated birthday!

    @itseclair , I've been fasting on Mondays since a month and the only advantage I noticed so far is that it helps you balance weekly deficit if you like me tend to overeat during weekends. You do need strong willpower though not to devour everything in sight when coming out of the fast. Also be careful as the first (couple of) time(s) is likely to make you very sluggish and light-headed, which might be dangerous if you're behind a wheel.

    Stopped dieting back around Christmas and haven't picked it up again until a few days ago but lost some weight due to stress. I'm hoping to lose more weight (healthily) and keep it off but with final exams just around the corner it's going to be hard to not eat my way into another dimension. Gonna start playing more sports as well and hitting the gym more often.

    Height: 172cm
    HW: 152lbs
    CW: 145lbs
    March Goal: 140lbs
    UGW: 135

    Here's to all of us hitting our monthly goal!

    Hey everyone. You are all doing great! I haven't been on these in a while, figure I could use an extra push for the last month of my gaining cycle. I had the flu a few weeks ago, so it was a bit of a setback, but I am back on the gain train.

    Height: 5'7"
    SW: 129lbs
    CW: 139.1lbs
    March GW: 142lbs

    Good morning,
    I missed my log-in a bit but am here now to report small positive changes.
    :)
    Here are my stats:
    Age: 41
    Height: 5'2"
    Waist: 28 inches
    Body Fat 21.7%
    HT: 124.9 lbs
    Ultimate Goal weight: 114 lbs

    February 22: 124.9 lbs
    March 6: 122 lbs
    March 13:
    March 20:
    March 27:

    I admit it's hard! Those temptations are everywhere but I'm trying my best to stick to my plan.
    I hope that everyone is doing well and in good spirits.
    We just got a few inches of snow overnight so it looks like the majority of my workout today will be shoveling.
    P.S. I posted this in February as well. (before I found this thread. Sorry for cross posting!)

    HW: 145lb
    CW: 138.4lb
    GW: 120lb

    2/24/18: 139.6lb, 25.5% BMI
    3/6/18: 138.4lb, 25.3% BMI

    Last week's goal of 35k steps per week was met and surpassed! I have a sedentary lifestyle right now and am looking for gradual ways to better my health that I can actually achieve and STICK WITH. Each week I will increase my step goal by 1k. So my next check-in here should be at 40k steps per week!

    I'm doing well with nutrition for the most part. Since I've started paying attention to macros I've had more satisfying meals and stay full for longer, all while staying under my calorie goal. I've had a few days where I slip up, and I've discovered that it's generally weather-related.

    @holytricoli Amazing progress! Inspiring indeed.
    @theknitpicker With a little planning, anything is possible! Good luck!
