Healthy Holidays! (Christmas Group #2)- Closed Group

Ok everybody. Here is the link to the Google doc for everyone's stats. I've put in everything I've got so far. If you see something missing for you, just send me a message or post to this thread. I was a bit unclear in the beginning about what I wanted from everyone (bit of a frenzy getting this going- it's my first time heading up a challenge).

I've put together the spreadsheet for the first 10 weeks. At the end of 10 weeks I'll reformat for the second half. I just figured splitting it into two sheets would be easiest, as it would be a huge webpage otherwise.

There are some GREAT goals on here and everyone seems really excited.

Here's the link. Just copy/paste into your browser and it should take you directly to the webpage. From there, just bookmark it for future reference. I'll update with all of the additional info that's missing as I get it. Otherwise, it'll be updated on Mondays when everyone sends in their weigh-in info!

The spread sheet looks GREAT! We are to report our weight each Monday and you will update the spread sheet?
Starting another challenge really motivated me yesterday and today I am sore! Will take it a little easier today.

I have read that some of you have HRM, can you tell me what you have and what you like/dislike about the one you have. I need to get one that I can use for everything.

The banner idea is awesome. I have no talent in that area so will leave that for those who do!

About the picture idea. My first thought was ohhh no. But I have been thinking about it ..........Back in March before I joined MFP I was given a snap shot of myself and hubby close up. I thought ewwwh my face looks so full/fat. Then we were at an event in June and was given another snap shot of us close up. Wow what a difference. The scale doesn't show it but you can really tell a difference in my face. So, I am thinking I will take some pictures now and then maybe later. Don't guarantee that I will post them. I will do this so I will see the difference over time. I also took my measurements last weekend for the first time ever. Perfect timing!

Logging what I eat really helps me realize what I am putting into my body and I think twice (sometimes:blushing: ). Now that the weather has cooled off some my water intake has dropped!:noway:

Take control for Tuesday, WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!

I didnt mean to make anyone uncomfortable, i just thought itd be a fun incentive suggestion. i didnt mean to make anyone feel self conscious

You didn't make me self conscious love, I promise!!! I'm just pissed at myself and don't want any pictures. This is my second rodeo. April 2009 I weighed in at my heaviest, 245 lbs. At that point I hit rock bottom and I literally worked my butt off. By November I dropped 90 lbs and I was at a healthy 155 lbs. I did it all on my own (didn't know about MFP) and by that point I was burned out and quit working out. By this past May I ballooned up to 214 lbs. This time WILL be different because I have a wonderful support group here at MFP and I now know about maintenance. We are all going to ROCK this!!!!

I was playing around in my graphics program and came up with this...
Someone else said they have a friend that might make one, if they do, we can take a vote.

I think it looks great too!!


Are we going to have weekly challenges?? If so we should get one going for this week ASAP!

Can I change my NSV? I'm a size 10 right now, and I'm thinking in 4 months I will definitely be able to rock a size 8, but I think I want to push for a size 6!

So my new NSV = One piece of FAB clothing in a size 6... and I don't care if it's stretchy material as long as the tag says 6!

PS I love the banner! How do you put it on your signature?

I love the pretty graphic! I am leaving for a cruise Saturday and will not have internet access next Monday, so I will submit my weight on Saturday if that's okay.
