I'm in - first timer in the monthly challenge.
On March 1 I started following the Fast 800 Keto plan so during March I am hoping to stick to 800-1000 kcals per day. I would welcome any mutual support from others following this plan.

Hiya, last month was my first full month back on MFP after reaching my goal, then regaining 26lbs in a year.
Losing weight is hard, gaining weight is far too easy. This time I'm not quitting as soon as I get there, this is for life!
F42, 5'4"
Highest weight 180.8 June '21
January End Weight: 157.6
February End Weight: 152.8
March Start Weight: 151.4
March Goal Weight: 148.0
Ultimate Goal Weight: 140.0
Ultimate Ultimate Goal Weight: 122.4
Trend weights are 7 day moving averages
March 1: 151.4 (trend 153.5) Starting the month with a 1.4lb drop overnight, so I have used yesterday's weight of 152.8 to decide my goal weight for the end of the month, giving me just under 1lb a week loss to aim for.
I'm also tracking my trend weight to help smooth out pesky water retention.
March 8: 151.8 (trend 152.4) Not happy with this weight, but I know I have been doing everything right so I have to have faith in the process. I had some excesses over the weekend but have made up for it over the last few days. This is 1.2lbs up from Saturday so I'm feeling a bit frustrated. I've been doing a lot of heavy lifting, so hopefully this is just water from muscle repair. At least my trend weight is down 1.1lbs.

Trying to get this plateau behind me! My March challenge is to close my iWatch rings every. single. day. So that's 75 minutes of exercise and 500 calories actively burned. 7 day streak!
This is also my week to attempt a healthier, cheaper version of the Starbucks red-pepper egg bites I love and miss.

OMG that is incredible! What a way to break through your stall, well done!4 -
My name is Donna. I am 62 years old and I live in the Midwest of the US. I am 5β 5β tall.
Start Weight (from Feb 28, 2023 ): 191.6
Goal Weight: 186.6 (5 pound loss)
End of Challenge Weight: xxxxx
Ultimate Goal Weight: 145-155 (Iβll know it when I get there!)
Weight in blue makes me blue because itβs a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because itβs a loss. Weight in black means no change.
03/01-191.6-(Trend Weight: 192.8)- Good luck everyone! Spring shorts & t-shirt weather will be here before we know it. Letβs do this!
03/08-190.6-(Trend Weight: 192.7)- Tonight is the school concert for two of my grandsons. The kindergartner and the younger high schooler (of the two). It is the next town over where my own children went to school and graduated (before I moved). Normally, for my son and I, I would make it an evening out and go to dinner first while we are all dressed up in our Sunday best. However, Iβm feeling strong in my diet resolve right now (such a blessing when that happens!), so I pre-cooked a nice dinner yesterday and promptly refrigerated it. Tonight I will pull it out, heat it up and call it done. Sticking to my guns when I can and while I can!
