Good morning everyone, CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL for the last challenge!!! Most made their goal and passed it and many others like myself made it very close... WE ARE ROCKING OUR SLEEVES FOR SURE!!!

So, here's the new challenge folks, what will you weigh on Easter Sunday?? That is on April 24th - 10 weeks from yesterday, and 70 days from today.

Everyone's welcome to join in, even if you are just trying to maintain your weight loss. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!! But with the sleeve, who needs luck??

Me personally am going to go aggressive this time. I really need to work hard to get as light as possible in preparation for my 5k run on May 7th... whoottt!!!

Also, instead of carrying over EVERYONE else on the challenge, we will just be responsible for ourselves. I have started the "ticker" of sorts, I hope everyone will still use it so everyone can easily see everyone's progress.

This is my original post... I think the warning here is to be careful what you wish for as, so far, I have only lost a pound...lol

192.8.............178.2...................175................3.2

I can say that I don't know if this will happen or not. I am usually right around 2 or less a week but I am SO happy with my journey thus far! I really wanted to weigh 175 by the 30th of April because that is my next race so I really think that can happen!

**Conjures up Soccer/Futball announcer voice** GOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLLL!!!!!!! And then some. 254.6 this morning and a goal of 255 by the upcoming Sunday. I would be really excited if I could get to 249.9 but I don't think that will happen in one week. But...we'll see!!!

***CALLING ALL CHALLENGERS***

It's about that time to choose a new challenge date! I'm so excited for a new one already, especially knowing I'm well within reach to actually making or passing this last one I set for myself!! Whooohoooo!! Anyway, I also really liked the fact we gave ourselves a little extra time to make it. So, I'm thinking either Father's Day which is Sunday June 19th - or the first day of Summer which is Tuesday June 21st. Open to suggestions as well!

Either of these dates are great as they are so close together plus an extra bonus for me! I have all along wanted to see how close I can get to goal weight by the 20th of June (my DD's bday)!!!

I vote for the first day of summer since not everyone on this board will celebrate the 4th of July. Just a thought!
