Need to Lose 100 LBS -Robins Thread !

I do better on short range goals so I vote for two back to back, the third option please @RobinB0812 and I think since Helene has volunteered that is FABULOUS! We will be off and headed down the lovely path of getting healthy and stronger! Thank you ladies!

Welcome to the group @karenleona and @traceyc013. It's great to have you joining us!

I think I would like to do a month by month challenge. We would take a little break after Earthday and then start a May challenge. Any body with me?

Thank you @RobinB0812 for organizing a new challenge! I like the idea of a 10 week challenge, but would be happy with whatever the group decides by vote count.

What do you think?

I'm in with any challenge you all decide on, for me 10 weeks is good, but I don't really care. It has been a great incentive and I think everyone of us has benefited from being in the current one. Thanks @RobinB0812 for getting the ball rolling and to @sand86802 and /or @MermaidPrincessRach whichever one of you ends up recording the stats for us. I am going to add one more thing to my personal challenge, I think it will just be a number from 1 to 7 to show the number of days I was able to drink a predetermined amount of fluid! I am bad at getting anywhere near what I should of my daily fluid. Now I just have to try to come up with a reasonable number. I know it should be at least 64 oz. so even though I don't drink anywhere near that amount, I guess that's what I'll put as my goal. Maybe by the end of the 10 weeks I'll be able to hit it!

On another note, I rewarded myself for the first 30 pound lost by getting the speedometer for my bike. It tells me max speed, average speed, distance and time ridden as well as current speed and a few other things. I had to have a new front tire too, and I also got a water bottle holder and side mirror. I rode as soon as I got back with it and was happy to see that the speed I had guessed for past bike rides was pretty close! From now on I will know that I'm tracking accurately both speed and time wise.

I am amazed at the number of people that have already beat their goals in the challenge, way to go! For others struggling, I want you to know you are an inspiration to me that you are not giving in or giving up! Keep up the good work everyone, we still have 9 days left!

@happygirlxxx If you dont mind me asking, where are you from and where in Europe are you going? I moved from France to Canada 6 years ago so I am curious

I'm in on the new 10 week challenge. I hope this will keep me moving in the right direction.

My thanks you those of you willing to coordinate the next challenge! I'm in, whatever the majority decides.

Thanks ladies for arranging the next challenge. I will participate but I will set my goal weight for the end of May and then change it for the end of June. I will be doing a lot of traveling and vacationing during that time period and that makes it difficult for me to plan out my weight loss strategy. I could but I'm just not willing to put that much effort or planning into what I will eat when. That would make my travels stressful rather than relaxing, which is the whole point of them!
@happygirlxxx =Wow that's amazing, I'm so happy that you can be a woman of the world, that sounds so exciting! And @sand86802 wow to you too! I wish that I had been born in a time when women could just take off and go wherever they wanted and do whatever they wanted, without society having limiting expectations. I wasn't a rule breaker back then like I am now! LOL Happy travels to both of you! I do what I can now that I am a rule breaker! You can tell by my profile picture, I'm not your typical little old grandmother!
OH and welcome @marib67

Current vote is 7-2 in favor of the 4th of July challenge (10 week).

@MermaidPrincessRach your template seems prefect to me. It has my vote.

Happy Easter, Passover, etc to all!

Until next time; wishing everyone Peace , Love and Weight Loss !!
