*THANKSGIVING WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE*

Options
To anyone who wants to challenge themselves and have accountability for their weight loss, I am inviting you to join!

The holidays will be sneaking up on us before we know it, so let's be ready! Starting on Wednesday, Sept. 8th, everyone sets a weight loss goal for the eleven weeks between then and Nov. 24th. Weigh in on your favorite day, but 'report' here how you did for the week on Wednesdays. I have also made a chart for the challenge on my profile page to stay accountable.

Think about your goal..... and be ready to share it on Wednesday!:happy::smile:

    Hi Ladies - I'm in too! :flowerforyou:

    Thanksgiving will be here before we know it! 11 weeks, huh? What am I capable of in 11 weeks? I would LOVE to lose 19 pounds in 11 weeks. That would blow past my goal, and put me down to a weight that I haven't been at since junior high (seriously). I don't know what I'd do with myself if I really lost 19 more pounds. Kind of seems unreal. I've lost 21 pounds so far - and feel wonderful! When I lose my next 9 pounds, that will put me back into the "normal" BMI category - which I'm thrilled about. 19 pounds would be a whole new world for me. I have a family wedding in a month - I'd love to lose my 9 pounds by then, and then the second 10 pounds by Thanksgiving.

    By writing this down, I think I just talked myself into it.

    I'M GOING FOR IT! 9 pounds by October 7th, and another 10 pounds by Thanksgving!

    I am excited to start this on Wednesday..... so hard to believe Thanksgiving is only eleven (and a half) weeks away!!

    On Wednesday, just post your starting weight and your weight loss goal for the challenge. Each week after that we will post :
    Starting weight -
    Current weight-
    Goal weight -

    This will be a great way to stay accountable to yourself and each other. If you dont post..... I'll come looking for you!!! LOL

    I normally hide from the camera, and today was my friends wedding and I will admit to NOT hiding for once in my life. I am proud of what I have accomplished so far and looking forward to what I know I can still lose. BRING IT ON!
