SAIL INTO SUMMER CHALLENGE

  • Popular Post

Here we go again!I actually feel fine after my surgery, at least well enough to host one of these challenges.

This challenge will run from June 16, 2017 through August 11, 2017. This will give us a total of 9 weigh ins. I will do my best to post to the spreadsheet within 1 - 2 day of receiving your weight but I will be recovering from surgery, then working three jobs and taking 3 classes so if it takes me a few extra days I am sorry but I WILL have it updated as soon as possible!! Please note that I will recalculate the figures as soon as I can following the Friday weigh in - so your weight percentages may be a little off...

I have made these Friday weigh ins because that will allow us to start as soon as possible. You may post your weight at anytime during the week if Friday is not your weigh in day!

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 June 16th) Goal Weight (what you would like to weigh at the end of the challenge) at the start of the challenge on June, 16, 2017. Remember this goal weight is only for the end of the challenge, not your ending goal weight!!

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 Friday. Specifically 6/16, 6/23, 6/30, 7/7, 7/14, 7/21, 7/28, 8/4, 8/11
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 Friday, 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!

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

Remember we are all here to support each other! I look forward to running another challenge with you!
