Anyone interested in a Christmas challenge?

[sslouha 3]

Hi

I just found out about this, so I went ahead and put my name on the google spreadsheet. This is fun for me, I need this push. Now has anyone thought of make a spreadsheet with the exercise that they do? If you have can you post the link or email it to dslouha@verizon.net?

Thanks and good luck

Christmas Challenge

I don't know if anyone else has noticed but the Christmas challenge participants have lost a combined 162.9 lbs. So, we have basically lost a person and that's with a lot of people who have not updated their weight loss!

Just saw this and I am joining today! I need some workout motivation. I see that many people have huge goals, but I am doing 48 lbs, which seems impossible right now...let's see how this goes.

Ugh...for some reason I am retaining Water. So I stayed the same this week. My ring is tight again and so was my bra which wouldn't have happened if it was weight related. Guess I'd better check my salt intake. I've had more than a couple of the new McDonald's smoothies this past week and even if they fit in with my calorie goals it is the only change I made so I will cut them out and see if that gets me back on track. Congrats to everyone else! And I'm not really unhappy as I'm doing well anyway.

Lost 2.8 this week! Woohoo! We are less than 5lbs from hitting the 200lb lost mark (as a group). Way to go guys!

Bumping the link to the spreadsheet:

Congrats everyone! 231lbs lost, that's awesome scale hasn't been doing much for me, but down another pants size.

Dumb question - how do you guys do the double tickers ???

[cynpatt 2]

3 pounds down this week and feeling great. Love these challanges. Everyone - keep up the great work!

[lauragshsu 6]

1/5 of the challenge down and we've lost 272lbs! That's an average of 55.2lbs a week! If we keep up an average like that, we could lose 1,435lbs total by Christmas. I think we should set a group goal of trying to lose a thousand pounds by Christmas. Thoughts?

I'm up for this challenge. I have 20 weeks and my goal is going to be to lose 40 lbs. I need this more than ever :redface:

Count me in! I'll add myself to the spreadsheet on Monday, when I weigh myself for the Labor Day challenge. I think I set too ambitious of a goal for that one, so I'm going to go with 50 pounds for the Christmas challenge. One of my coworkers is getting banded today, so we're going to start hitting the gym together at lunch once she recovers. Sort of looking forward to it (though the lazy part of me is not!).
