Ok, so Im doing an Easter challenge in another group and thought some of you might like to try one as well.

There is a little over 8 weeks till Easter. It's time to set a weightloss goal to achieve by Easter Monday.

Tell us how much you want to loose by Easter monday, how you will do it and what your reward will be. After all, there is no point setting a goal if you don't know how you will achieve it, and we need something to look forward to at the end!

We will check in weekly to see our progress and encourage each other

    I want to loose about 10.4kg to get me under 100kg.
    I will do it by walking/jogging each day, going to the gym at least 3 times a week and cutting sugar and snacks from my diet.
    My treat for under 100 is a day at the hot springs, but if I make it by Easter Monday I will add in a spa treatment, I'm thinking a mud wrap!

    I would like to lose 16 pounds. I am going to do it by sticking to my calorie budget, cutting back on processed foods and getting to the dang gym. I would like to work out at least 4 days a week and get above a 3 on the treadmill.

    If I do this I will reward myself with buying a hotel room for my *hopeful* road trip to New Orleans this summer. I haven't seen my best friend in almost 3 years and I do believe I deserve it!!

    By April 1st I want to have lost 20 lbs. It is a little over 2 lbs a week, but I have a longer goal of 68 pounds lost by August! I am so excited and ready to give this my best shot! I plan on working out everyday, by that I mean either dancing or treadmill, or a walk with the family! Eating under or at my calories, and drinking only water and tea!

    I'm going to say that I want to lose 15lbs by Easter. I *really* want to lose 25lbs by then, to be under 200 by my birthday, but that's just wishful thinking on my part. haha!

    In order to reach my goal, I'm going to stay at or under my calorie goal, try to incorporate more good foods, drink more water and exercise 3x/week or more depending on how much my injury will allow. I'm sooooo ready to get this weight off.

    My goal is to lose 16 pounds. I have been consistently losing 2 pounds a week.

    I will do that by continuing to walk 2 miles at least 5 days a week.
    Work on getting through the C25K program (at least half way through by Easter)
    Continue staying under calorie goals

    Reward: A manicure and nails.

    My goal by then is 20lbs down. I think that's a stretch. I plan to move as much as possible while at work. ACTUALLY START WORKING OUT!! In tears I am struggling to get started with that part. Cut more sugar and salt out of my daily meals.

    I havent set a time goal, but my first goal is to drop under 300.

    Thats a loss of 25 pounds.

    I will do this by making smarter choices, keeping under my calorie budget, not eating the calories that I gain back from exercise, upping my water intake, and lowering my sugar intake.

    I want to have lost enough inches that I can zip up my favorite skirt. I was about 16 pounds lighter last time I wore it, so I'm aiming for 16 pounds by March 31. I am going to continue tracking my eating and working out at least 4 days a week.
