    Starting weight- 170.6 (highest ever 😟)
    Goal weight by April 15- 160
    Overall goal - under 150

    2/29- 169
    3/3- 167
    3/10- 163.7
    3/17- 165
    3/24- 160.6
    3/31- 161.9
    4/7-
    4/15

    So it's been a bit up and down, but 2 more pounds by 15 April should be possible if I get my focus back. I've been finding it challenging recently to stay focused.

    Coming in a bit late to update the weigh-in, but I did check my weight this past weekend.

    Highest starting weight - 151 (12/25/2023)
    Goal weight by April 15- 135
    3/3- 146
    3/10- 147
    3/17 -145.8
    3/24 - 146.2

    Challenges - I didn't do any early morning treadmill walks this week. My husband's work schedule shifted this week (had to wake up 2hrs earlier) so it completely threw off my planned sleep.

    @Paz922 - congrats on getting into a lower range (150s), you're doing great.

    To all the group: we are about 2 weeks away from April 15th to work towards our goals! Even if the journey is up and down - if we keep our focus, we'll be better off than when we started (even if that just means we learned something from our approach).

    I totally agree with you!

    Hello everyone,


    Wins- I was able to get into a pair a pants that did not fit at all two month ago!. Losing 5 lbs and being less bloated does make a real difference.

    Challenges- We celebrated Easter so yesterday was challenging as I went over my calories and I could not exercise.

    I did great today with water and eating lots of protein and fiber. I am still at 159.



    Starting weight- 164
    Goal weight by April 15- 154
    Total weight objective- 146


    2/14-164
    2/18- 162 (with the flu)
    2/25-162 (I did not gain the weight I lost with the flu)
    3/6- 161 (I am happy with a 1 lb loss because I am not starving and does not feel like a diet)
    3/18- 159!! - I am so excited. I have not been in the 150's in a long time.
    3/25-159
    4/1-159
    4/8
    4/15-

    3/31 - 144.2

    Challenges - My sleep has been really off these past few nights. I think I'm having dreams or nightmares because if find myself twitching and/or jerking like if I'm falling, and so I'm waking up multiple times during the night, which is not normal for me. If my sleep is off, it derails my days.

    How is everyone doing?

    I’ve had a few challenging days as I am having back issues. Today is my first day walking at a normal pace. My food has not been great.

    Today is a new day!! I am still at 159 but I am ok with this. My clothes fit better. I am drinking more water and got used to eating more vegetables.

    END of Challenge

    Starting weight- 192 lb
    Overall.goal - 140 lb

    March 2024
    3/3- 192 lb
    3/11 - 189
    3/17- 188
    3/24- 190
    3/31- 195
    4/7- 188
    4/15 - 185

    Total Challenge loss = 7 lb

    The last month has been very hectic so didn't manage to post my weekly weigh-ins here. After going away over Easter my weight crept up and weighed more than when the challenge started!

    I got back on the bandwagon and the last two weeks have stuck to intermittent fasting and manages to lose weight again. Will keep going with this motivation now. My clothes are finally starting to feel less tight and my muffin top is slowly reducing!

    Hi everyone!

    I hope you are having successes implementing new habits during these two months. I lost 5 lbs and feel much better about myself.

    @phreekles7 That is awesome! congrats. I love that you lost the weight and your clothes feel better.


    Does anyone want to keep going on this challenge for another 10 lbs or any other number? It does not always need to be weight. it could be wearing clothes that did not fit before, being more active etc. We can come up with a number but everyone can decide their own objective. In my case, I would like to eat gluten free and less dairy because I feel better when I do. Also, I am trying to lower my glucose levels.
