April Showers Challenge

Welcome to the monthly challenge. April is here and time to start thinking about spring. 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 Monday April 1st then come back every Monday on the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and the LAST DAY OF THE MONTH --30th for April 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.

173.4, not good, gone up quite a bit, but I'm hoping it's from the numerous pickles I've eaten the last 3 days.

202, down 1 lb. Only 3 lbs. more until I am out of the 200's, sooo excited.

Stayed the same 223 :(
