***April Weight Loss Challenge***Sign Ups Always Welcome!

Welcome to the **April** Challenge!
I “pirated” this challenge from Kallikat--hopefully won’t get kicked off this forum by the moderators if I didn‘t go through the right channels--am a relative “newbie“ to this forum stuff.  Anyway, if you’ve participated before, welcome back for another month!  To all those who have not done this challenge (or any other) welcome aboard to any newbies!

The challenge is pretty easy.
We'll have 4 weekly weigh in's and then a final weigh in on the last day of the month and the dates will be...:

April 5:
April 12:
April 19:
April 26:
Final Weigh-In for the month! April 30:

In keeping with previous tradition:  weigh in days are on a Sunday.  For those who don’t like to weigh in on the weekend--look at it this way--extra motivation to stay on track over those “days off!”

So!
Sign up soon--fill out the form below and post it EVERY Sunday with your new weights.

I was in this challenge last month and lost a total whopping 4 pounds..lol. hopefully I  can do better this time. this morning I saw an all time low..193, yea go me. lol

akgrl: Thanks for starting up this challenge!!

Way to go Diva!  I'm actually "up" .6lbs from my last Sunday in March weigh-in--hence my "inspiration" to see if I can make it through a month as "challenge leader"...I NEED the accountability--l0l...messaged a few of last month's participants who commented that they'd like to go another round--hopefully we'll pick up a few new faces as well!

Yay!  Thanks for picking this up!

I officially hate my scale. My house has carpeting EVERYWHERE even the bathrooms and that makes the scale inaccurate. I like to weigh unclothed. Now I am having to go into the entry hall by the front door or into the gargage to weigh.

Thank you, thank you, thank you...I need motivation.  I lost almost 50lbs and have put about 15 of it back on.  I have decided that logging and corresponding with others is the best medicine for me!!!  Makes me accountable!!!!

I have been loosing weight since February Im down 12 lbs so far but over the last 3 weeks it has slowed down to a crawl...my plan is to pick things back up and be heading for under 150 by the end of the month!

I started at 171.

Grretings AK,

I'm so in I think I need a little boost, my life has been pretty hectic lately but I should be able to get back on target next week.

I'm putting my April 1st weight as my start weight.  My weight has been a little weird, at the end of the March challenge I was

March 31 - 121
April 1 - 120
April 2 - 120
April 3 - 119

Hm... weird.  So I'm putting 120 as my start weight, and 117 as my goal.  This month may be a bit harder for me, because we're going to be on the road for about a week and I probably won't have much control over calories OR exercise.  My ultimate goal is 115.

Yes ~ I definitely need the motivation!
