Mar 25: 162.0 lb, Annnnd I had chicken-pesto pasta lastnight. I need to get back in the habit of just having salad for dinner AND do less snacking in the evening! That's my downfall. I do really well during the day at work. I eat what I pack most days. I run into trouble when I get home and start snacking on the kids snacks. Then I say, screw it, might as well eat something yummy for dinner too. Dumb! I need to do better. I know I can!

@pridesabtch Great progress this month! Consistent trend with the expected blips that didn't derail you. Keep doing what you're doing until you've done it so much it's a habit.

@kellyswimmer Kudos to you for your persistence in breaking through your plateau and seeing improvements after a rocky start. A lot of people would have given up. But not you.
