    Hey all! :flowerforyou:
    I think most questions have already been answered, but if not:

    WELCOME ALL!!!

    This thread is open to anyone! There are no rules other than the forum rules. I we ask is that you post you starting weight at the beginning of the month and at the end of the month. You are responsible for keeping up with your weight posts. If you don't want to weigh in/post weekly, you don't have to. Pick whatever day you normally would weigh in. We all have different schedules, so find what works best for you! We all chit chat throughout the month, be it strengths/weaknesses or just in general life stuff. We love to talk with each other.

    :blushing: **Don't look for any losses from me. I'm 16weeks pregnant but keeping my weigh in's on here so I can track better** :blushing:

    My weigh in days are Tuesdays, so here's my weigh in schedule:

    March 1st: 206.3
    March 6th:
    March 13th:
    March 20th:
    March 27:
    March 31st:

    "Hey" to the regulars, "welcome" to the newcomers"...

    Here's my official March starting weight: 145.
    I normally weigh in on Fridays, but I'll skip tomorrow, since I weighed in today.

    March 1: 145
    March 9:
    March 16:
    March 23:
    March 30:
    Final - April 1:

    I am reposting and updating my "Note to Self" from February, as I am in even more dangerous rebound territory... 145 is an all-time post-baby low for me, a number I haven't seen in at least 7 or 8 years... Thrilling, but also a total invitiation to my subconscious to sabotage me.

    Note to self: I know that you are really comfortable at this weight (150 plus or minus 5). Everytime you get to this weight, you somehow manage to either gain or maintain. What I want to tell you, self, is that It's ok to weigh less than 145, really it is. Just because the scale says 145 does not mean you have to eat everything in sight. Got it? 140 is a perfectly normal number, and on April 1, you will realize that. In the meantime, just trust me. And we'll worry about April in April, ok?

    Also, it is critical for me to stay on track in March... My 3-month gym membership promotion was that if you lose 10 pounds (Jan - March), then you get your money back! I have 1 month left, and need to lose a few more pounds (hard to tell exactly how many because their scale is different than mine).

    I'm thinking this is just what I need! I haven't stepped on the scale since Novermber (I'm in a bit of denial after losing 50 lbs in 09-10, then sliding down that slippery slope) With that said, my weigh in day is Friday so I will have a CW and a GW and my first weigh in, tomorrow!

    Just got word girl scout cookies are in, and the last week of March I am at a conference...I am STILL IN!!!:bigsmile:
