    Ok, here is one I have been working on... NO frozen meals. I am trying to eat fresh and healthy, not preservative filled.

    @ BattNAt
    It will. I have been challenging myself to not go out to lunch. I have been bringing 1/2 lb lunch meat, one loaf of bread, pretzels, hummus and fruit for lunch and I keep it all at work (we have that option). I have been saving $30 a week from not eating out every day. All the above mentioned food cost me about $12 a week.... Eating out was costing almost $10 a day!

    You can do this!

    Either you need another man or the ever reliable Mary Palmer - you are naughty guys!

    I want to do this too, but I think I would die of curiosity with the scale staring at me.

    I could have sex every day for a month.

    How many calories are you going to lose if you do this for a month? ;)

    Steal tastes from my kids or "spear fishing" while I am in the kitchen. So hard to track those calories. Much of my extra pounds comes down to BLTs. - bites, licks and tastes!

    Putting myself on a no-buy this month. So that automatically means no eating out/fast food.

    This month I will not buy any clothes. I can't afford it but I'm so easily tempted so it will be difficult.

    I am willing to workout 5 times a week. I have been slacking on that part of the weight loss :grumble:

    Gym challenge: Do more than a warm up on the rowing machine at the gym. Time a 2k sprint, and repeat at the end of the month, hoping for improvement. #edit: obviosuly with some rowing in between!

    Diet-wise : Have more self control regarding my snacks. Even though they're healthy, I could probably do without some of them.
    Continue to avoid chocolate for month 3!
    Have 5 carb-free meals a week.

    Other challenges: Have a half marathon booked a week on Sunday!
