Weight loss: 18lbs
Mood: happy yet disappointed

There are three days left until my birthday and I have 2 pounds left to lose before I could claim I had reached my goal. It is almost impossible for this to happen and therefore I know I will not be reaching my goal of having lost 20lbs by my 24th birthday. Hm, it would have been better sounding if I had tried to lose 24 pounds for my 24th birthday - though that wouldn't have been possible.
Though I am not going to be at my goal by my birthday, I am still having the birthday party as planned. I feel that I was successful in many other parts of my regime to be able to reward myself still. I exercised almost every day as planned and am still working out regularly. My calories were on track almost every day and I was able to increase my water intake on a regular basis - although it is still not exactly where I would want it to be. I know I gained some muscle weight through my weight training regime I had (and have) going on - so I am still happy with what I have accomplished this month and am planning on keeping this plan into April.
Speaking of which, my April plan is basically going to be the same as the March one:
- attempting to complete 60minutes of exercise every day (with every 6th day off)
- 2L of water a day
- 1400-1600 calories daily

Hopefully that will get me to 20lbs lost soon into April and make it possible to reach my next goal - which I haven't figured out yet.
