Holiday Challenge!

Its time for another challenge! This challenge will be beginning with the first weigh in and goal on Friday November 7, 2014. From there on after, weigh ins will take place Fridays. Last weigh in will be Friday January 2, 2015. This will allow a total of 9 weigh ins in all. I will post the link for the spreadsheet once its the week of. I know this challenge will be hard for a lot of people including myself because of three major holidays. I want everyone to enjoy this time with their family and friends.. This challenge is to help us make healthy food choices during this time.

Few reminders

  1. You will know it is updated once I have liked your post.
  2. Please post weigh ins here in this post only.
  3. We are all here to support each other..so questions posted here will be answered by anyone else willing to help.
  4. If you want to adjust your goal weight, just add that in any reply to this post.
  5. if you miss a weigh in...no biggie. Just report back in the next week.

But If you missed three or more weigh ins, i will amuse that you no longer wish to continue the challenge and your name will be removed from spread sheet.

Have fun with this! Challenge yourself in new ways! Join us for the Holiday Challenge!

Nowhere near goal, but I lost weight over the Holidays!!! That is huge for me. Thank you again Susan!!!

On to February challenge!!!

120.1! Well it looks like I made my ultimate goal and I survived the holidays. I won't be doing the Valentine challenge (yikes). I'm going to try and fly solo and keep up maintaining. I want to thank everyone for the support and a special thanks to Susan for heading the challenges. Good luck to everyone and remember YOU CAN DO IT! 2015 here I come!

I made it to 191.5 but fell short of my goal of 190. Ok well I'll keep trying for Feb challenge. Thank you so much Susan for organizing these. It's really helped keep me on track during the holidays.

I have been slacking, either holidays, work or ill. My numbers are as follow:

1/2/15: 215.2

12/26 /14: 214.0

12/19/14: 215.4

Final weigh in: 152

210.8 as of today for final holiday weigh in.

This has been a hard week still recuperating from a fall down the stairs week before Christmas so not doing my 4-5 X a wk 4 mike walks. I've given in to holiday sweets & not getting in as much protein. But I still managed to lose almost 2 pounds. Didn't reach my goal but lost nearly 20 pounds during this challenge. Thank you Susan for creating the Holiday Challenge now to focus on the next step in my rebirth! Happy Healthy New Year All!

New Challenge will be starting on Monday for only 7 weeks. Jan 5 thru Feb 16.
