Halloween (can be healthy) Challenge - 10/3 through 10/31, 2016!

  • Popular Post

This challenge will run from 10-3-2016 through 10-31-16. This will give us a total of 5 weigh ins. I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 - 2 day of receiving your weight. Please note that I recalculate the figures over the weekend following the Monday weigh in - so your weight percentages may be a little off...

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!

Procedures:

Please Post Your Starting Weight (Weight on or around 10/3) and your Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the challenge) at the start of the challenge on 10/3 or before. If no goal weight is posted I will put down 10 pound loss as the goal.

You can cut/paste this below and fill it in on your post -

Goal Weight:

Current Weight:
Today's Date:

Rules:

1. Post your weight on this thread every Monday. Specifically 10/3, 10/10, 10/17, 10/24, 10/31

2. If you change your screen name please let me know.

3. If you miss 2 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 on Monday, 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!!!

Disclaimer: Hosting this challenge is volunteer and I have a busy life -- if something is up or looks wrong please have patience, send a message, and I'll fix asap. My ft job, 5 year old, 5 month old, or husband may get the majority of my time but you will receive it as soon as I can, I promise! The goal is for all of us to stay motivated by accountability. ;)
