  • Popular Post

Time for the next challenge...
4th of July Challenge!

Here we go with the rules and instructions:
1. Be sure and log in here on Friday, May 30, 2014 to post your start weight and your goal weight for the challenge.
2. When setting your goal, keep in mind that this challenge is only 4 weeks long (5 weigh-ins).
3. Weigh in every Friday and post your updates here.
4. Watch the data at 4th of July Challenge (click to be taken to an online spreadsheet) to see our progress as individuals and as a team.

GOOD LUCK!

Note for you non-USA folks...even though it is not your country's Independence Day, it is definitely your country's "Fourth of July" (I mean, it's the 4th of July everywhere, right?!?) So here's hoping you'll think of this as a holiday to share with us and join in on the fun here. Happy 4th of July, folks!

I'm in! I will post Friday with my CW from my consult appt with the surgeon. :)

Count me in! Will post starting weight and goal on Friday.

I'm in! Will post on Friday

I love these challenges! Thanks Bea :)

I'm going to start today because the last weigh-in I have will be Monday, June 30th. I'll be on vacation over-seas for the rest of that week, including 4th of July.

CW 237.4

GW 218

Almost 20 pounds is a lot, I know. But this goal has a couple of facets. Being 218 would be mean I would be at my lowest recorded weight as an adult, the lowest weight in 10 years AND I'll actually be on vacation to enjoy it! I would love to go on vacation rocking my brand new body. :)

If I don't make it, it'll be ok. I'll still be the lowest weight I've been in almost 10 years and happy, happy, happy! But I'm going to push myself and see how I do!

Ok so know this is early but my Bday isJune 27. So I am using that date and I wanna be in Onderland so CW is 210.4 goal for b-day is 199. Come on me!

I am now 170.8!

I intend to be 163 which will give me a 7.8lb loss-

It will give me a lil over a 155 lb loss all together--

I started at 319- my DOS was 2/25/13

Good luck to all if you!
