    Glad you found us, Shanell! On my laptop, at the top of each page of this thread there is a star. Click on it to turn it yellow. Now, each time you go to the community tab, just click on the star in the top right corner and this thread and any others you have starred will show up. Or, you can just go to Community-->Groups--> Biggest Loser Monthly Challenge and scroll down until you see our team's thread for March and click on it.

    I just entered your weight on the spreadsheet....you lost over 4 pounds this week!! Really glad you found us! Nicely done!!

    I like having a snack in the evenings. It helps me to wind down and even sleep a little better. I usually log what I'm going to have for evening snack earlier in the day so that I can remember to save those calories. Occasionally, I have "one of those days" and when that happens, I log the extra and just move on the next day. :)

    Sorry Team .. forgot to put in my weight on Friday

    It was 184.4

    With the norEaster that hit us and my new work load it slipped my mind.

    I have put a big sticky note on my PC to remember to log it in this Friday.

    Hope everyone is doing great.. I know I don't know everyones end goal here but came across a a quick motivational piece on the internet....
    16 weeks until summer
    Lose 1 pound a week = 16 pounds
    Lose 2 pounds a week = 32 pounds
    Lose 2.5 Pounds a week = 40 pounds


    Small steps can equal huge gains(or losses in this case)

    Happy Tuesday Everyone!!

    Very motivational piece, Albert. Thank you for sharing! People sometimes get discouraged with losing only a pound a week, but over the course of a year that's 52 pounds! Even if you have a lot to lose, that is a significant chunk!!

    This has got me thinking about goals, and it has inspired the next Question of the Week.

    This is a two part question. Question of the Week: What are your March goals, both scale and non-scale related? What are your end goals?

    If you haven't chimed in on our first Question of the Week, you may still do so: What is your current exercise of choice, or if you are not currently exercising, what would you like to get into?

    That's a great way of looking at it..
    Turning 40 this summer and I want to be fit and healthy, so I can tick off more of my bucket list..
    So my aim was to lose 6 stone (84 lbs) at least.. Then I can bungee jump and go on a helicopter, may not be in time for my birthday - but before this year is out..

    Question of the Week:
    What are your March goals (scale): 154
    What are your March goals (non-scale):
    I'm getting better at the logging, staying within calories and exercise. BUT getting consistent sleep, planning/cooking meals on a regular basis, taking the time to clean everything before I go to bed and remembering my vitamins are things that I’m working to turn into habits.

    What is your current exercise of choice? Gardening and walking
    What would you like to get into? Strength training
