Next goal - 303 by the end of April

Full of ups and down - don't give up!
With five days until April 1st, there's still time to work towards the March goal (312 lbs), but I want to be at 303 lbs by the end of April. I would like to be able to properly wear my new Gore-Tex jacket, which I want to take with me on my hike in Oregon (see http://blog.ergoob.org/2016/02/revised-targets-new-end-date-but-it.html).

I have a couple of friends who are struggling at the moment with the frustration of seeming to have stalled. They're doing the right things: eating well, doing the exercise, but they're not seeing the results at the scales. My chart (above) shows how progress goes sometimes - even if you're doing all the right things. Keep at it! Don't give up! You will be rewarded in the end. I had a few weigh-ins at the beginning of the month where I appeared to be going backwards (or upwards), but I stuck at it, and now I'm down to 317.8 lbs, and headed in the right direction again.

As I keep telling people: if I can do it, so can you!
