I did not do well with the stress of this week. But I will take heart with sassbag's comment: "There are things going on in the world that we have no control of.. but our weight isn’t one of them😀" I like that thought.

Thank you all for being here! I really appreciate the motivation this group has provided me. Although this past month has been a rollercoaster of emotions and a struggle for me mentally and physically, I have been able to stay more focused than I would if I didn't have the support of you all. I hope all of you will join me and continue in your fitness journey through the month of April. Thanks again to my fitpal family and thank you sassbag! 🙂6

March start Weight: 76,9kg
March Goal Weight: 74,5kg
Ultimate Goal Weight: 65kg *dreaming*
Mar 1 : 76,9kg
Mar 8: 77,0kg
Mar 15: 75,9kg

Mar 31: 74,8kg
Missed my march goal by 300 grams. But I’m still doing my happydance
Assuming I keep this rate of loosing +/- 2,5kg per month I should’ve reached my ultimate goal in about 4 months.
And THEN comes the really difficult part: holding the weight!!! Looking at the past 5-7 years I have regularly lost weight, typically around 10kg, in the spring just to regain them (or more) over the next ¾ - 1½ years. Fortunately I know what I’ve been doing wrong and I promised myself to not fall back into the old, bad habits.
So long... Stay safe and healthy y’all
See you in the april challenge!4 -

Mar 31: 203.5 I hit my head on the same wall over & over and kept getting the same results. No surprises there! April will show a weight loss. Recommitting to myself the promise of health & vitality.
Final thoughts: During this global pandemic, it is more important than ever to stay healthy. I am recommitting to self-improvement and better health overall. Bring April ON!!!!!!
