On the fitness side, I'll continue using Lose It -- it's been amazing so far!!  I started seriously using the program after reading Cate's amazing post here.  Since March 13th I am down 1.5" around my waist and 1" around my hips.  Weight-wise I'm down 7.6lbs.


I found this fitness calendar on Pinterest - original post here.  Looks like I'll be tweeting #pfworkout a whole bunch of times this month!


 

Looking like a busy April ahead!!
