Round 159
August 10 - August 19, 2021

Please join us starting on 8/10, for JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, when we will begin Round 159!

Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.

Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.

Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!

Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.

FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

    I love the 10 day challenge since it is offset from the 7 day (week long cycle). Just curious if anyone had the background on 10 day challenge ... vs targeting 7 or 14 days?

    @Lilylady3k - @TerriRichardson112 and @GrandmaJackie were both here, I believe, when I started in Round 6. Perhaps they know why it is what it is.

    Row 30 mins, Free-Weights, Walk (1 or more - 8 days):
    Vegetables/Fruit (5 or more each day):

    You’ll never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.

    Female, 5’3”, 60
    Ultimate Lifetime Goal: Weigh Less Each Year Than the Last

    I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.
