Healthy for the Holidays

Options
Our initial weigh in and measurement day will be Monday November 7 (this coming Monday).

The goal:

Lose 10 pounds or more by CHRISTMAS, Sunday December 25. (of course you can still join us if you have less to lose! )

We will also take measurements of only : Neck, Waist, Hips, and Thighs. (MEASUREMENTS ARE NOT Required, but can be motivational on those weeks where you don't see a loss on the scales!)

THE ONLY REQUIREMENT IS TO POST A WEIGH IN EVERY MONDAY.... and also measurements if you choose...but they are not required.
Share your first weigh-in on November 7th. I have preemptively put this challenge up NOW so that people see it and are aware next Monday for the weigh-iin.
Anyone's welcome to join at any point during the challenge.

You come back to this thread to post your results. I will be making a spreadsheet of the loss every week!

I will try to post daily challenges for us. They are not "required", but are there if you want to do them. EVERYTHING WILL BE POSTED ON THIS THREAD!


So, JOIN US! Everyone is invited!

    Starting at 172.6
    I hope that this challenge I can actually break my plateau.

    Does anyone have ideas? Beside just being on a physical plateau, I'm feeling like I'm on a mental one as well.

    I feel the same way. I was thinking of doing something drastic like no food after 4pm since I go to bed at 8 or 9. The hard part is that I still have to feed my family dinner. Good luck to us!!:flowerforyou:
