Don't think I've ever gone past my monthly goal weight, very pleased i had to check the scales 3 times on different parts of the floor?!?
i have had an apple every day, they usually make me hungrier but as i got them free from work i didn't want to waste. i haven't always eaten the healthiest things this month but if i know im going to have a pastry or cake etc. i make sure it fits in with other stuff i have through the day so i stay between 1200-1500 calories a day .
I will put a link up for next months challenge later on today. would love to see you all there, really been enjoying reading your weekly posts

@sassbag Congrats on surpassing your monthly goal! 🎉 I have always gotten hungrier after eating apple and you’re the first other person I know who has. Usually people think I’m nuts when I say that! 🤣4

4/1- 177.2 lbs ....got my second vaccination yesterday so feeling a little tired and sore today hopefully I will better later today so I can get a workout in 😊
4/8- 175.2 lbs....had to make up some calorie burning the last few days but it paid off! My body is definitely a little sore from last nights workout but totally worth it 😊
4/15- 171.8 lbs...much bigger drop than anticipated, must have been some water weight! Feels great just was a big surprise today ❤️ Staying focused on logging my food and exercising! The nice weather has helped a lot and the craziness at work has me getting a bunch more steps in so hope I can keep this up for a bit longer 😺
4/22-169.6 lbs....reached my goal!!! My new goal is going to stay under 170 this next week 😳 since covid began my parents haven’t come down to visit and now that we all are vaccinated they are coming to see me for my birthday! Very excited to see them just need to make sure I don’t go too crazy with food and gain too much weight this next 7 days 🤞
4/26-168.4 lbs...my parents get here today! Might be distracted and forget to weigh in on Thursday so this might be my final April weigh-in....just need to stay focused and not overeat the next few days 🤪
4/29- 167.8 lbs...so very happy to see this! Even with house guests I have tried to eat mostly healthy 🤪 My parents have kept me busy so despite being a bit over my calorie goals I guess I am burning it off...or I will see it on scale in a few days but for now super happy ❤️

What a way to end (almost) April! 6lbs doesn't seem like much but it was a challenge to me. Looking forward to May and losing a few more pounds. The nicer weather makes it more appealing to get out there and walk. I have fibromyalgia, diabetes and sciatica. Some days are harder than others but I try not to give up. I hope everyone on here has a great weekend! Hoping we can all do this for May! The accountability helps. Anyone on FB doing this? Please let me know!7 -

Apr 22: …207.2 My second shot of Moderna today. Just feeling a bit tired so far, no headache, fever, chills or aches at this time. Weight is down a bit from last week. We’ll see how it goes on the scale in the upcoming days. I had a lot of travel this week (including restaurants) so we’ll see how it catches up to me.
Apr 29: …207.2 I am retaining water today so my final weigh-in tomorrow will be more accurate.

April Start Weight: 205.7 lbs
April Goal Weight: 199 lbs
Ultimate Goal Weight: 159 lbs
For consistency I will be weighing on a Friday so my dates slightly differ.
April 1: 205.7 lbs (Starting Weight)
April 2: 204.8 lbs
April 9: 209.1 lbs 🤦🏽♀️ combo of being ill & pms upon reflection. Hopefully next week I'll be back on track 🤞🏽
April 16: 207.6 lbs - not quite where I was originally but still a loss 🤷🏽♀️
April 23: 208.8 lbs - first time this week I lost weight so I still call it a win despite weight gain. Definitely not hitting my goal this month though! 🤦🏽♀️
April 30: 210.3 lbs - so this was definitely not successful for me but what I have learned is that I need to find better coping techniques when it comes to stress/illness & not to fall back into old habits. But tomorrow is a new day & month and I will endeavour to do better in May!
Well done to everyone who hit/surpassed their goals, great stuff! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽5 -

Well and there you have it. The last day of April (where did the month go). My total April weight loss was 6.4lbs, pretty happy with that and reached my goal weight this month, so happy. Again, congrats to everyone who reached their goal weight, to everyone that came close to their goal weight, to everyone that stayed the same weight and everyone that even gained weight - you are still here and that's an accomplishment! Let's bring the positivity into a new month when we welcome May tomorrow. Have a great day (rainy here)!5 -

CRUSHED that there was no April 31th; it would have fixed everything!
But I can't blame anything but myself for overeating and not tracking as well. Setting new ultimate goal for next month and hope things will move in the right direction this time. 7 -
Original Start Weight: 209
April Start Weight: 202.2
April Goal Weight: 195
Ultimate Goal Weight: 169lbs
April 1st: 202.2 (it was 200.7 yesterday)
April 2nd: 200.8 (changing my weigh in days to Fridays)
April 9th: 200.4 (not quite as low as I'd hoped. I was 199.8 on Saturday so was hoping for 199 by today. Unfortunately, got off track with Easter and sweets this past week. I have been working out almost every day though, which is still fairly new for me)
April 16th: 200.4 (I'm a bit discouraged by this. On Sunday, I had a good talk with myself as my birthday is coming up in a few weeks and I decided if I got serious, I could lose at least 5-10lbs before then. I currently have MFP set to lose 1.5lbs a week and this week, I ate under my calories every day and worked out all but one day. I was hoping I would at least be out of the 200s! Next week!!)
April 23rd: 201.2 (I forgot this week was my TOM and I also ended up ordering a delicious & comforting fried oyster dinner delivery meal after a frustrating failed attempt at making some healthier sweet potato and cauliflower pierogies with cassava flour. I did see 199.0 this week on Monday, yay, so hopefully this will shoot back down in a few days.)
April 30th: 199.8 (didn't reach my goal, but made some progress. I worked out a lot more this month and made healthier choices)8 -

Apr 22: 167.2 (75.8 kg)
Apr 25: 165.9 (75.25 kg)
Apr 30: 165.2 (74.9 kg)
I was really hoping to break into the next pound down, but I'm happy to still be progressing.
NSV, I bought a new pair of jeans after 2 people at work commented on how baggy they were and I was able to go down a size! I knew they were a bit loose, especially in the thighs, but I wasn't sure I could size down because I hold weight in my abdomen. Plus, now that I'm wearing a properly fitting pair, I feel so much better with how I look.7 -

Ah well... accidental maintenance month. 🙈😂
There are certain points when weight loss gets harder. When I get back below an overweight BMI is one, and this stage, when I’m really close to goal, and no longer feeling as big, fitting into most of my old clothes etc is another. It’s harder when you want it less than you did... but kind of still do want it...4 -
