What is a walking plank?


Shirley61 - You need to check in again with your final weigh-in on Dec. 27th. You can do these cool challenges everyday that MrsSeaShell is posting. She will tally up everyone's weights and post the winner after everyone is weighed in. If you win, then you will be the host of the next postcard challenge round.

I'm still here!!!! Just finding it difficult to check in every day.

Not doing all the challenges but keeping up with cardio, weights, jumping jacks, sit-ups, push-ups and walking lunges! Also, doing well with the water.

Only 2 days to go!!!!! Whoooo hooooooo!!!!!!! Christmas task... Should be wrapping pressies but I am taking my daughter to the shops to buy a dress for Christmas Day and I have a bed to dismantle, ready to be returned ('cos it's very poor quality), leaving me without a bed!!!!!!!!

I'm hee too. I admit that I have not done any of the challenges. Not because I don't appreciate them, but this close to Christmas, reguardless of how quick and easy they are, I just have a lot of things to take care of right now.

This is the first p.c. challenge I've been in since Oct (I think) and it's the first I've seen with challenges In previous challenges, we didn't have to post everyday (or close to it), we stated our beginnig weight and then if we wanted to, we posted throughout the two weeks, and then made our final post 2weeks later. Maybe that's why you don't have many people posting too.

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

I'm here also. Just not checking in except on Mondays when I will weigh in.

MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone and I will check back in (hopefully with good news) on the 27th.

MrsSeaShell

RushinBruisette

SW and CW 197.4, which is fine with me, that means I maintained through Christmas and all the parties!! Good luck all and congrats to the winner.

bkrbabe57

I am at 180 down 5 pounds !!!!!

looby1968

Weighed in this morning and I now know why I don't weigh myself on a Monday. Up 2lbs! I'm aiming now to lose 6lbs and get me back into ONEderland, with a bit of leeway!
I've started doing a Leslie Sasone workout (which I found on youtube) and have done it everyday for 2 or 3 days, so I'm going to keep that up!


Name: Louise (aka Looby1968)
Weight: 201lbs (I've left ONEder land, Poo!)
Weight Goal: Lose 6lbs
Non-Weight Goal: Structured workout, at least 30 mins everyday!

Weighed in this morning, after breakfast (cos I was staying with my parental units), and amazingly I was 165lbs. So I've managed my 6lb loss!!!!

Happy Bunny Dance!!!!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Good morning! I weighed in at 211 this morning, which means I've lost 0 lbs in the last two weeks. It also means I've gained 0 lbs! I know I could have worked harder, but you know what? It's Christmas time and I couldn't be happier that I at least maintained throughout the holiday.

Hope you all had a great Christmas! Congrats to the winner of this round, and another congrats to those who lost or maintained.. you did great for the holiday!

So I started here at 274.6 --right before Christmas I was at 267.4 so 7.2 lbs lost. And what did I do? I gained it back over xmas--thanks to cookies and my TOM I am at 276.2.

blah.

melodyg

Ending weight: 211.2 (UP 1.2 from my starting one... can't seem to budge from the 211.2, I think my first weigh-in was a temporary fluctuation!). Oh, well, better luck next time, right? Congrats to those of you who lost weight during the challenge!
