March Challenge, here I come....:driving:
 
10 lbs in a month is great! :hurray:
It could be that you're just slowing down after your initial big weight loss, which happens to everyone.

It is great but it's nothing to do with slowing down and everything to do with cheating and not working out. It has been an incredibly lazy month so I'm going to kick it into high gear for March. I'm heading back to Canada to visit family on the 31st and I want to shock them all! :jump: :eh:

terrible.... I was doing so well and I just fell off the eats. Going to a different country for three months not being able to eat the foods they have here, combined with the stress and frustration of not making the money I need has lead to the bad eats. The exercise is still there but I'm getting busy I've missed a couple days. I'm going to try really hard this spring to stick to good habits and portion control. I'll have no excuse not to workout. I'd like to lose 20 lbs while I'm gone.

Trying not to be disappointed here because based on BF%, it seems I lost fat and gained muscle, I guess. You just love to see that number continuously go down, though...lol.

Wow- It's amazing how fast one month flies!!

2/1: 179
2/8: 177
2/15: 176
2/22: 175.5 - Kinda bummed! Was hoping for more but I did indulge in lotsa beer Sat. night so of course that's why.
3/1: 174 - Pleasantly surprised at my weigh in today!! Almost made it to my goal 173, maybe next week. ;)

Total loss for the month = 5 lbs

February 22: 172lbs (-2)
