Hi! My name is Kristen and I host the "EGG--CELLENCE For Easter!!" challenge. I have been the host for two long term challenges, here on MFP, and now it's time to get ready for the next one! This next challenge is "Thin In My Skin!" and goes for 12 weeks. It is from April 9th to July 2nd. Our weigh ins will be on Mondays and need to be in by noon PST. If Friday, Saturday, or Sunday is better for you to weigh in... no problem. Just make sure to use the same day every week. We will have at least one mini challenge every week. After the first week, it will be given by one of our biggest losers. If you don't want to do the challenges, no problem. Here is the format that we'll use for the weigh ins.

Name/ real name:

Current Weight:
Challenge Goal Weight:

04/09:
04/16:
04/23:
04/30:
05/07: <<<mini goal weight>>>
05/14:
05/21:
05/28:
06/04: <<<mini goal weight>>>
06/11:
06/18:
06/25:
07/02: <<<challenge goal weight>>>

You will post the format, with your new weigh in, every week (on the thread). If you don't want to set mini goals, that's up to you. I'm a really informal host. The thread will be pretty easy going, with a great group of people posting and supporting each other along our weight loss journey. We won't have pressure here. One negative... If you miss 3 weigh ins in a row, you will be dropped from the chart that third week. If you'd like to join, welcome! For now, please state how much weight you'd like to lose over our 12 week period so that I know what group to put you in. :-) You do not need to use the above format until our first official weigh in on April 9th.

Kristen

P.S. Here is a sample of how our weekly chart will look.

    Kristen, I might have to try this again since I had the foot injury in the middle of the last challenge. I probably would shoot for 10 pounds. I also love the Betty Boop.....my daughters name is Betty and that has always been her nickname:-)

    Yay! I'm in for sure! Will work on losing 24lbs. I'll do the weight and mini goals when I do my final weigh in for the current one.

    Thanks for doing another...they really keep me motivated! :flowerforyou:

    I want to drop 20 by then. I'd love to drop 25 even more, but that's probably not realistic.
