Postcard Challenge Round 18

Options
Can you believe that this is the 18th round of the Postcard Challenge? How fun is this?!

Ok, here we go! Post your weight as of today (March 13) and I will make a note of it. In 2 weeks (March 27), post your finishing weight and if you lost the most weight, I will send you a postcard from Dayton, Ohio (it's an hour North of Cincinnati). The winner will also get to host the next round!

In round 17, Shannon asked for everyone to make some pledges for the next two weeks. I thought that was a great idea, so I'll do the same.

Mine:
20 minutes of exercise minimum daily
Drink 64oz of water minimum daily
More fruits and veggies

Feel free to add me because I'll post a reminder in my status of when to have your final weigh-in.

WE CAN DO THIS! WOOWHOO! :bigsmile:

    Oh I'm in! 162 today, and I would love to be able to say I was under 160 in two weeks time! My goals:

    1. A minimum of 45mins of exercise daily
    2. Eat less carbs
    3. Try to snack less, I find that all of my snacks keep on adding up every day!
    4. Not miss a day of tracking my food and exercise.

    I'll start tomorrow!

    Good luck everyone.

    I'm in... gonna use my last weigh-in's weight of 214. I'm up a little right now from high sodium and a not-so-great weekend but I'm sure it will come back off pretty quick.

    Anywho, here are my goals for the next 2 weeks:

    ~ No soda (I gave it up for lent)
    ~ Exercise more
    ~ Up my water intake to 9-10 glasses a day instead of the 6-7 I've been getting
    ~ Get out of the 210's... I want to be into ONEderland by the time school lets out in May.

    Weight 254. Really really want to be 249. Then that will be a total of 90 lbs lost! and closer to 200 than 300 :) I have been the same same weight or there abouts since 1/22. It's gonna be a huge challenge because my birthday is this friday. And I have off the majority of the week. So hoping I don't go nuts.
