April challenge??

[aintwana]

Hi from a Newbie! I started on phen yesterday 3/26, and am a little late in the game to start the March challenge myself. Has anybody thought about a challenge for April? I think I'm really gonna need something to keep me motivated after the 31st, as my son's leave will be up then and he's headed back for duty, he's in the Marine's and his flight is at 5:30 a.m. Monday morning. Since he's been home, our menu at home took a drastic turn...gumbo's, jambalaya, crawfish, lots of spicy cajun and "homecookin" for the last 3 weeks as we pretty much let him set the menu while he was home. I didn't slack on the exercising, but the rest of my good habits :( So I'm ready for a challenge to get back in the game. Thanks ya'll! Hope everyone has a fantabulous day!

I agree! I was too late to join as well and would love to join if another one is started up...I need the extra motivation! I know it would make me work much harder!

Where is your son stationed? You must be very proud of him. i know how difficult it will be for you when he's gone because my boyfriend has been a marine for the last 25 years and he's been in Iraq since the beginning of the war.. I haven't seen him since June but I'm trying to lose the weight before he comes home for a long vacation at the end of may....Unfortunately despite how much water I drink,, and the hours I'm putting in at the gym it's not coming off (pounds or inches) as quickly as I hoped. Good Luck.

I will watch for that! I need extra motivation...my splurge this past weekend...has me staying within my calories but making less than desirable choices!

Thanks CD....I'll definately be checking the challenge tomorrow.
Corr...yes I am!! He will be VA for about 6 more weeks, then he'll be stationed in Washington D.C., the job that he was chosen for, from what I understand, will have him there for the next year at least. I'm ready for the challange!!
