not a lot to lose challenge

shannahrose

When's Labour Day? (I'm not in the US). Happy for Friday weigh-ins and also happy for whatever end date...will just adjust my goal for the challenge based on the length of it!

Labor day is Monday, September 6. But if we do Friday weigh ins, we can go until the Friday before, which would be September 3. What does everyone think??

I wanna be in! Just got married and went on my honeymoon and gain some weight I had lost back, ready to get those stubborn few back off!

I can join in on this one...don't know if I will hit the target by Labor Day (that's ten weeks from now), but I can try!

SW=139
GW=125

Really my goal weight is 130, but I want to see how I feel when I get there and then hit 125 if I feel like I want to lose a little more. So OP are we all in agreement that Friday will be the weigh in day? Right now, mine is Saturday. I have no qualms about changing it though! Here's to losing weight! :drinker:

What I have learned is these challenges need an awesome leader who has amazing organization skills....
if no one else wants to I will set up the chart with all the names, the starts & the goals and the friday check ins... but I am not sure I will be able to continue to fill it out each week (in about 4 weeks I have overbooked myself with stuff to do).

Start: 143
Goal: 135

September 3 works for me as well as Friday check in!

Oh and I nominate AnneElise to be our chart gal!!! :-D

shagybear33

May I make one request???

Could we start a new thread each day or Friday instead of adding to one single thread? I don't know about everyone else but having a thread with a 500 ongoing posts gets hard to follow/find after a while. Lol!

Thanks bunches!!!

These last 15 pounds are stuborn and don't want to come off!!! I hope to find a lot of helpful hints and tricks from everyone to help reach our ultimate goals!!! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

AnneElise

making the chart...

I agree on a posting each friday.

What should our name be for the challenge?
Not a lot to lose or something spicier?

What do we want the challenge to be for the first week?

When I get a name/challenge I will repost TODAY to start the challenge with the chart... it will be under motivation message boards

Friday is good for me and Sept 3 it is!!:bigsmile:

AnneElise

okay... chart is done and its a big chart. I have put check ins for all of July and then i can add more when the time comes.... i need

1) a good name

2) the 1st challenge for the week

shagybear33

How about......

Slim Slimmers for a name??

I dunno... LOL, just throwing it out there!! I'm excited about this group and am feeling quite giddy!!! HAHA!!

badrianne

LOL shagybear we are two of the same mind! I was thinking something on the lines of "littlest losers", but I really like yours too.

Thanks annaelise for nominating yourself to be the leader. I don't know what a challenge could be that is feasible for everyone. My personal challege this week was no fast food. I have done pretty well. It takes a lot of planning. I realize, I head out when I have forgotten to grocery shop or am very busy.

Since we have a small amount to lose, could next weeks challenge be to get 2-3 strength training sessions in addition to our cardio? I like Jillian Michaels' "No More Trouble Zones" for my toning days. We have to keep it tight ladies!

Im in! I really dont have much to lose left though but I like the idea of a challenge group!

For a challenge, the first week how about drinking at least 8 glasses of water? Obviously, like someone else said if people want to tweak the goal to be more or less water, that's fine. For example, I try to get in 10 glasses a day.

Also, I'm sure the chart is huge, but as I've learned with other groups, they tend to thin out, so it will probably be less overwhelming (in terms of the quantity of participants) as time goes on.

double post :blushing:

I like the "Little Losers" group name! Cute! And I'm in for 8 glasses of water per day. I usually shoot for 10-12, but I think everyone should try to meet their water goal, whatever it is. 8 minimum. Thought?

shagybear33

Water challenge sounds great. I'm usually really good during the week, but weekends kill me for my water intake!!

And I like the "Little Losers" name too!!! Awesome job!!!

misslizz6958

I'm in goal 125 for now. I'm going to have a binge day to start a week long vlc diet. Healthy? Eh but it works for me when I do it right. Hopefully ill hit the 20's by the end.

RooMcDermott

I struggle with my water, so it'll be a great challenge for me. Are we starting today then? Weigh in next Friday and next challenge starts next Friday as well?



Guess I better get to drinkin' some water

dc83

I'm in !! This sounds great!! I like the little losers name as well.
