14 Weeks to Christmas Challenge!!

I'm ready to start tomorrow!!
I've given up chocolate about 3 weeks ago with my detox and then atkins, which I'm on for the rest of the week.
BUT I've been eating diabetic chocolate as this is super low carbs!!
A little treat/cheat I've been rather indulging in!!
So Wednesday to Wednesday... No Diabetic chocolate either!!!
That will be tough, was my treat :sad:
As I'm already pretty much at my goal weight I'm just going to be joining you for the weekly challenges as a way to keeping motivated while I'm maintaining my weight loss and keep me moving forward with more exercise.
Hope this is alright with everyone!! xxxx
GOOD LUCK TO ALL :flowerforyou:0 -

I almost had a stroke when I realized the no chocolate thing should probably include my white chocolate dream peanut butter. Technically, I don't know if it really counts since white chocolate doesn't contain cocoa like regular chocolate. But I might as well REALLY challenge myself ... hrumph.
Hey Bikinimission, I still don't plan on weighing myself more than once a month - hope that doesn't mess up your spreadsheet. You know me and my standoff with that scale though
I didn't mention on my initial profile, I'm starting Power 90 on October 1st.
