APRIL FOOL'S CHALLENGE - get started!

It looked like a bunch of us in the Valentine's challenge were ready to get started with the next one, so I took the liberty to start this thread.  :)


How much do you want to lose in the next six weeks?  Do you also have a goal involving inches, or sizes? 


Are you going to do something new/different/more challenging to get there?  Increase exercise, treat less, have a better weekend plan, etc.?  Let's all share what we're going to do to make this our best six weeks yet.

I'm going to claim 9 lbs, which is 1.5 lbs a week.

Well, even though I dropped to just below 139 for 3 days, I've been hovering since then back just over 140.

I'm in - - I've lost a bit of momentum this week, so getting back on track will definitely be good for me!

Alrighty then! My goal for this challenge is to be back at the weight I was at the first of the year which was 112. I have had a few challenging months with emotional eating, not staying on the plan, etc. I became complacent when I got to my goal weight.


So, I think I probably have about 5 pounds to lose for this challenge. I plan on tackling my eating issues by staying on track and finding other things to do when the boredom eating begins. I know I could find some things to clean around the house when that happens!


I have been good about working out though. I will continue that and hopefully my knee will heal enough to be able to still run the half marathon on March 31.


My reward for this challenge will be a new dress for my cousins's wedding on April 19.


Good Luck All!
