4th of July Challenge: Red, White and Blue: Whole New You!

  • Popular Post

This challenge will run from 5-30-2016 through 7-11-16 (I didn't want to end ON the holiday). This will give us a total on 7 weigh ins. This is my first challenge as an organizer - so patience is appreciated! I am following the same logic as vsgSarah3 who has done a great job administrating up till now :). I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 day of receiving your weight.

This challenge is for everyone. If you are pre op, post op, in maintenance or looking for some accountability; this challenge is for you! The rules and link to the spreadsheet are below!

Please respond to the post if you are interested and I will add your name to the spreadsheet.

Please Post Your Starting Weight (Weight on or around 5/30) and your Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the 7 weeks) at the start of the challenge on 5/30 or before.



Rules:



1. Post your weight on this thread every Monday.


2. If you change your screen name please let me know.
3. If you miss 3 or more weigh ins, I will assume you no longer want to participate and your name will be removed from the spreadsheet.
4. If you miss a weigh in, no problem. Just post it asap.
5. We are all here to support each other, if you post a question anyone can answer.


6. You will know your weight is updated on the spreadsheet once I've liked your post!



The link to the spreadsheet is below! Have fun, and good luck with this challenge!!!

You are smashing this! You need a ticker so we can all see your progress :) Great work!!!

Thank you. I really hit it hard two weeks before surgery. I am still in the post surgery honeymoon phase following the rules. It is exciting to see the weight fall off. I know this won't always be the case. Being a loser is so fun!

I know I am late with this, but here it is. For the second week in a row I am 201. I feel about this two different ways. One, it is better than gaining. Two, it is worse than losing. lol This last week I ate out several times with friends and over did it on carbs, so this week I am increasing my exercise time and decreasing my carb intake. We gon to get below 200lbs yah hear meh! So far I have been doing well with my activity level and carb reduction this week. As someone once said if you fail at a goal just make another goal.

Hello Thank you for the challenges I was wondering are we going to have a Labor Day challenge? If we do please email me a note. Thank you very much.
