The third round of the postcard challenge is beginning! I realise this isn't a good month for a lot of us, but what better reason for a little extra motivation? Let's all get into our hot party outfits! I will try to find a Christmassy card for the winner!

Here is how this works:

Enter your starting weight by Saturday December 8th. Then we will all work really hard to eat right and exercise. If you don't want to post your weight for all to see then message me privately and I will record it. To start us off, I'm 168.8 lbs today.

THEN... 2 weeks later, on Saturday, December 22nd, everyone checks back in with their new and improved weight. The person who has the biggest percent of weight loss gets a postcard from YOURS TRULY!!!

How fun is that! You know you want me to send you a post card. do it...do it...

The WINNER then starts the next Challenge, and each challenge is always open to new and old participants. **This part is important, make sure you can be a committed winner and keep the challenge going. If for some reason after you win you are not able to run the next challenge, please let the previous winner know so they can see if the runner up would like to do it. **

See you all on Saturday!

    Cute! I love how its called the Christmas edition! I won't be joining this one because I'll be away and not able to weigh myself for the challenge. Can't wait to see who wins though!

    I'm totally in!! Starting weight 233 lbs.

    This will not be easy as I make lots of fudge for co-workers, friends and family and I always have to taste test before I give them out. :laugh:

    How was everyone's week? I did ok for the most part, but Friday was my husband's company Cmas party and I let myself indulge a bit. I think I can get back on track and have a decent loss next Saturday. Hope everyone is doing well!

    I had a week of socialising but was really strict on the days in between and it all balanced out, I hope. Still have one party night to go but I hope I'm still on track! Hope you're all doing well!

    We don't have a group page, the winner of each challenge starts the next one with a new post in the motivation forum. I'll be announcing the winner of this one shortly, one I have everyone's new weights. Then the winner will start the next one. Keep your eyes peeled!

    Apologies for the delay in announcing the winner over the festive season, our winner is Fitmommy2013, who will be receiving a postcard from Scotland! Well done all, we had some good losses even in party season, great commitment!
