Bumping to keep this at the top of my list! I'm so ready for this challenge! I have so much I want to accomplish and so much I want to just drop off, dump off, release along the way! :laugh:

Welcome everyone!

Yay! I'm excited. Hopefully I will do better this time than I did last time. Thanks Kristen. As always you are awesome!

kcthatsme

huh I was on page two of the invitation list but didn't make the cut. :sad:

I just checked the last thread and this one and didn't see a post on either one before this. Then I checked the other Easter challenge that has egg-cellent in the name and... you are on page two of that one. Good luck on your journey. :-)

Just want to remind you that for now I have to weigh in on Tuesday mornings....don't have a scale where I am on Mondays. Thanks for doing this :-)

That's fine but could you hold on to the info. and post it on Mondays? That would be sooo helpful for me.

Absolutely!! No Problem...I may be getting a scale for the mountains :-) Also, so I have to copy the dates and my mini goals again, or do you have them on some spreadsheet????

As of right now, my starting weight is 228.4 pounds, but I will repost when it gets closer to Monday. I can't wait!

gmomlyn

Time for a lost post to introduce myself to anyone who doesn’t know me from the last challenge. My name on MFP is gmomlyn….real name Lyn, but among other names I also answer to Linda, mom, mom-mom and grandma. I’m 55, will be turning 56 during this Egg-cellent challenge. Happily married over 34 years to the same guy. I have 3 children, 1 son, and 2 daughters…..and they are all married with kids of their own, so I’m grandma to 10 kids….3 girls and 7 boys. I was a teacher all my life, and I was teaching preschool when I decided to retire early over 6 years ago. With daycare costs being through the roof, I knew it would help out my own kids a lot if they didn’t have to pay for childcare. So, that’s what I’ve been doing for the past 6+ years. I’m also a Girl Scout leader for all 3 of my granddaughters’ troops. What else? Well…I live in a rural area of western New Jersey, and I’m also a procrastinator but I do some of my best work racing the clock, lol. My younger sister and brother will tell you I’m bossy…heck, my own kids will tell you that….but don’t believe them! (Ok….maybe I’m a little bossy, lol) And…..I believe that life is too short not to find humor in things and I “don’t sweat the small stuff.”

I never had a weight problem in my life until I hit menopause in my mid-40’s. That was the only bad thing about going through menopause for me…the weight gain. I found I couldn’t eat anything I wanted to like I always did without packing on the pounds. I’ve since put myself on diets 3 times in the past 5 years. I lost weight the first 2 times….but then got lazy and went back to eating like I always did and slowly put the weight back on again. So last September, I found and joined MFP and I’m here to lose weight for the 3rd (and hopefully the last) time. I joined the Hubba Hubba challenge in September and with the support and encouragement of many of the ladies who are now here in the “Egg-cellent” challenge, I was able to lose over 28 pounds. Woo hoo! Now I want to lose another 15 or so pounds. I know it’s going to be harder this time since I don’t have as much to lose now…..and then the real challenge will be to keep it off!
So, that’s my story. Good luck, Eggs! Lyn

redbird99

Introduction: I live in southern Missouri on a 40-acre farm. I was a K-3 teacher for 34 years, most of them in 3rd grade. I have neices and nephews who are like my own, but no kiddos of my own. I also have a dark s/p miniature schnauzer named Dudley DoRight (my sister named him!) who is as cute as can be.

I have always been on the high end of a healthy weight, even overweight. As a child, I had severe allergies and didn't go outside much, so I pretty much never learned to enjoy exercise. I didn't really begin to enter the obese category until after a car wreck in 1980 that injured my right knee. After that I seemed to slowly gain and gain until I reached a certain weight where my body just maintained my size (266 lbs). Now I want to slowly lose the weight and begin moving a bit more so that I can put off surgery on my knee and maybe feel better all the way around. I have a lot to lose, but 5 pounds a month is a healthy goal! So far, 14 pounds are gone and it hasn't been difficult, so we'll see!

Good luck to everyone!

greenescape - I changed your goal from 11 to 16.

thurberj - I don't keep the mini goals. People tend to change them as they go along and they are mostly to give incentive to keep working hard toward the challenge goal.

unifil & inkwell1 - I'm sorry but I'm not adding any more unless they were part of my last Hubba Hubba challenge. Otherwise, we are a closed group now.

Shirley61 - "Lots of sodium and bloat to get rid of." I'm with you!!

FaithLifeHope - As long as you give me a starting weight and a goal weight close to the 2nd, I won't get cranky. ;-)

Kristen

P.S. Right now, I'm enjoying visiting my daughter and granddaughter in Utah! I live in AZ and she lives in MD but she was going to be in Utah for the holidays so a 12 hour road trip later... here I am. :-)
