  • 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!

208 missed goal hit a little stall! Thank you Bea for doing these! You are awesome! Good luck in your new job and congratulations!

229.0. Didn't make goal.

I didn't make my goal of 219. I gained 1.5 lbs. I had not taken my diuretic for my blood pressure and I had not been drinking enough H20. So.... I'm depressed... I can only blame myself! I am starting to work out tomorrow. I plan to walk 2.2 miles a day and use my resistance band to improve my upper body strength and dust off my ab lounger. I've was in Vegas for the 4th and I ate 1 fried chicken strip and a few bites of macaroni and cheese...I am really angry and feel like I've failed...

My final weight was 151.

End weight: 131.1 - Didn't make my challenge goal but since I am maintaining under my overall goal weight of 135, I'm happy. I am still going to try to lose a few more during the Labor Day challenge.

Thanks Bea for everything you have done with these challenges. Good luck with everything! :D

I should have known that last number was a fluke!

168.5. ????

Sorry for late check in. I was on vacation and didn't have access to a scale. Final weight - 192

Two pounds shy of goal!

211 :(. I seem to be in a bit of a slump! I am going to need to try something

new to shake it up a little and keep the weight loss going!

Didn't make goal last Friday of 127...but as of today I hit my personal goal of 129.0

Thanks Bea and best of blessings from above on your journeys of life
