π Welcome all new first timers to this challenge and "Hello again" to those returning for another month, another year, another round. π
I joined back in September of 2021, which was my first month back on MFP. In the first 9 months, I lost 40 pounds and use this challenge as motivation to stay on track. It is nice to have a medium-term goal that gets broken down into manageable chunks.
Pick your own goal, check in once per week, and at the very end of the month. Let's keep encouraging each other & staying focused on our individual goals.
You can change the dates to suit you, but try to keep it weekly as it shows off the weekly progress betterπ
Pick how you want to weigh as in lbs kgβs or stones
Feel free to copy & paste the chart:
April Start Weight:
April Goal Weight:
Ultimate Goal Weight:
April 1:
April 8:
April 15:
April 22:
April 29:
April 30:
For those unsure how to do your weekly weight input:
When you want to do your weekly update do a search for your original post, copy and paste as a new post in the add post box then you can edit in your new weekly weight. A lot of people also maintain their post in a notes application on their device and just cut and paste into a new post.
Itβs not a race go at your on pace, imagine where you could be in 6 months time!π
Best of luck to everyone - have fun! ππ

I am finally losing some weight, not a bunch but slow and steady, I'm not doing anything that I won't be doing 15 years from now. So no diets, just lifestyle change with eating habits and exercise. Have a great month everyone.

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.
04/01-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I woke up today in quite a depressed state. I am bothered that my normal routine has been so very disrupted. I realized I have not even gotten dressed since Thur morn when I had to travel. I am still bloated and am quite sure I have put on a few pounds while going through all of this medical drama. Even with the medication change, my bp was down way too low again yesterday and I couldnβt get any fitness in because of it. Food is not the answer and does not solve the problems! I ate things I shouldnβt have mixed in with good pre-planned choices but the in-betweens threw me out of plan. I am a mess. I will work on myself today though it is babysitting day again. That will not leave much time for me but Iβll do my best. Tomorrow (Sunday) is a rare free day this week. No babysitting and no drs appointments. Tomorrow I can really focus. Iβll be back to travel on Monday. In the meantime, I am logging my food and going to youtube to find some positive affirmations that I can listen to (and repeat). I really need them today.

I am up a pound to start off the month but it's not surprising, I haven't been eating as healthy because of the amount of birthday celebrations in my family (4 total in the last two weeks!) Plus, my asthma is being triggered by my seasonal allergies making work outs difficult. I am hoping to turn it around and break 170 this month which has always been the number I struggle to stay below. Thankfully there are only 2 April birthdays and Easter to worry about LOL πππ°7 -
I am game! Just finished a challenge (lost 5.4 lbs Jan-Mar), looking for a new one.
