HAPPY HEALTHY HOLIDAYS CHALLENGE!

This challenge will run from 11-14-2016 through 1-2-2017. This will give us a total of 8 weigh ins. I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 - 2 day of receiving your weight. Please note that I will recalculate the figures as soon as I can 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 11/14) and your Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the challenge) at the start of the challenge on 11/14 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. I will be awarding a prize to 2 lucky participants! The winners will be selected at random an the only thing you need to do to be eligible for the drawing is log your weight each week!

2.Post your weight on this thread every Monday. Specifically 11/14, 11/21, 11/28, 12/05, 12/12, 12/19, 12/26, 01/02

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

4. 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.

5. If you miss a weigh in on Monday, no problem. Just post it asap.

6. We are all here to support each other, if you post a question anyone can answer.

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

@@rydersmama are you dehydrated or constipated? Make sure you are drinking enough. Maybe go back to basics and do liquids for a few days to reset it.

It's so nice of you to respond to everyone!

I have no idea what happened to me the last few weeks. I actually ended up getting as high as 147lbs last week. For some reason I was retaining Fluid like crazy and gaining weight.

I always drink tons and never let myself get constipated.

So I have no idea what happened, but the weight is coming off again this week, so I'm happy about that.

I know I won't get to my goal for this challenge, but in the long run, as long as I can get into the 130's and stay there, I'll be happy! After all, I did start this year weighing 333lbs!

I know this is a mid week weigh-in....and I've already weighed in this week....

And I've learned not to question anything my body decides to do anymore - cause it's def calling the shots.

But I just got on the scale and weighed in at 185.8.

Not only below my challenge goal but the most I've lost in any time period since surgery.

WTF and whoooop!

And I fit comfortably in the rides at Hersheypark yesterday (seriously who does Hersheypark in 30 degree weather - I'm still frozen)

So.....that's all....

Have a great Thursday everyone!
