Welcome to the monthly challenge. March is here and time to start thinking about spring coming soon. This challenge is a fun way to keep track of your monthly weight loss while gaining and giving support to other bandsters

Copy and post the template below and fill in the information that you are comfortable sharing on Friday March 1st then come back every Friday on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and the LAST DAY OF THE MONTH --31st for March and post your updated weight.

I will keep track of the weights to get a table listing everyone's results on the following weekend. Good luck to everyone and remember this isn't a contest it's a challenge and you are a winner no matter how much you lose.

The first three items are required all others are recommended, but the last one is the most fun. If you are new to our monthly challenge please leave a short introduction.
