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!!!

Goal Weight (by end of Challenge) 189 lbs (aiming to be out of the 190's)

Current Weight: 191.6

Did not hit goal but I'm still proud of me!!!! I low key had a goal range of high 180's low 190's and I think I hit right within my target.

Now lets get ready for Thanksgiving!!!

Ended at 148.8.

Gained weight during this challenge.

Kind of disgusted with it right now, but moving forward with perseverance. What other choice is there?

Thanks for doing this challenge for us all!

Ended at 210.8. Met goal early, then stayed there (in the midst of the dreaded 3 week stall). Still happy with progress!

I know the challenges help motivate us and keep us engaged. I know they are probably crazy busy to do so I appreciate the ones who step up to the plate. Tomorrow marks officially 2 weeks til thanksgiving. Challenge can run until 11/28 and then its time to get ready for Christmas. This is the time where everyone struggles the most so it would be nice to get one started for the holiday season.

OMG... @dashofpixiedust8 that's awesome !!! Bless you!!! @goplay94123 you can still PM me as well the basics of how to run the challenge and what I'd have to do and I can consider either doing it or helping out with future challenges but I have to regretfully decline at this time.
