    Check in as often as you'd like!!! I'll be checking in daily if nothing else than to see what people are talking about and to offer some encouragement!
    I'm in 225 as of this morning. Looking forward to a glorious Easter.

    I'm giving up being sedentatry for lent. At least 30 minutes of exercise daily.

    Are we going to check in somehow during our Lenten journey?

    Ok...I've been having a fight in my head about this thread for 2 days! :noway: I officially posted on my status today that I'm giving up being fat for Lent, and not just until Easter! I've been having a serious hate-on for my scale lately since it has not budged since February 13, and I mean AT ALL! So.....drumroll please.....I'M IN!!! Lordy, Lordy please help me get through the next 47 days!! Official beginning weight: 159 lbs. Good luck to you all-I know I'm gonna need it!

    **I may need a sponsor! :bigsmile:

    I second this! Otherwise it will be a 39 day challenge, and that number just isn't as good :tongue:

    I'm not religious either but it's definitely a good idea to give up something else that will help with the weight loss.

    Let's all keep active and eating healthy!
    Good Luck to everyone and me!

    Oooh....so tempted to join this, but I'm also part of another challenge that has me weighing in on Fridays....give me some encouragement people! I don't know if I can give up weighing in cold turkey for such a long time....oofda. Well, I just weighed in this morning...I'm at 161.2 lbs. This would be a really good thing for me to give up for Lent! But can I do it?

    YOU can do it! I am official scale addict -- I weigh 3x per day every single day. I saw you on the P90X thread... and I am doing it too :)
    Just bag the other challenge... join us... think of how awesome you will feel on Easter Sunday!

    Thanks for the nudge. I'm at weighing in once a day....so, yeah, I think I will do it! I don't need to weigh myself every single day of my life! I'm in. :happy: Thanks again.

    ARGH whon Earth am I agreeing to do this?!
    I'm completely addicted to the scale lol.
    Sorry I know you said it's against the rules but I will be weighing in in the morning, as I didn't know today would be my last one so I haven't an accurate starting weight.
    Expecting around 206 though.
    In fact, I'll tell you what.
    I'll go hop on the scales now before midnight that way it's a little more fair.....
    Starting weight... 208.75
