    It's a bit late to join the March 4% challenge. With 10 days left in the month, I'm in for 1.33% or 2.46 pounds lost by the end of the month.

    I would also be willing to join the group if the same thing is done in April!

    Well, this week wasn't so good. But at least I still had a loss. I keep calculating according to my last weeks weight. Should each week's percentage lost be total percentage since the beginning?
    So far 4.4 pounds and 2%
    One more week to lose 2%. Yikes! Guess I'll skip the red wine tonight. I'm so doing this next month! Thank you for setting it up!
