LAWL June Challenge - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

hkychik · 05-31-2006, 12:01 PM

Hey ladies, it seems like a bunch of us need a

kick in the ol' backside, some re-dedication to our journey. We seem to do well with challenges, and setting some short term goals that a bunch of us are working on together, so here we go!

From now until the 4th of July (5 weeks) I challenge you to:

Stay POP at least two days in a row this week. (next week we'll bump it up to three, then 4, and so on) It takes time to make POP a habit.

Post here once a week at least one positive thing that you did for your weight loss journey - Things like making a good choice while eating out, a little bit extra exercise time....

What d'ya say ladies? Are we game?

I am certainly in a comfort zone - I am still losing, but I am certainly not as strict with the plan as I used to be, and the minor cheats are getting more frequent... My plan for getting back to POP is to start weighing and measuring foods again, instead of just "eyeballing" it!

and I am going to start with my cool whip for my strawberries, right now!

Hi!
I'm in. I've been on lawl for a little over a month and am down 10 lbs!

I backslide over the holiday a wee bit.

I really need to get back into the swing of things. Esp. since the annual 4th of July family amusement park trip is coming up.

Good Luck Ladies!!

Dh work picnic is the second week of July at an amusement park, and I don't want to look like a complete

I would also like to get down a few more before my family picnic the beginning of August!

I was pop yesterday but today I screwed up. I went on a school field trip with DD and came home with such a headache, I just needed a big bowl of no added sugar ice cream, and I had already had my 2 starches for the day. Also tonight I had some peanuts at the baseball game.
So tomorrow will be my second day of pop for the week, with the goal in mind of being pop all weekend too.(yeah right)

Gamababa3 · 05-31-2006, 11:16 PM

So far POP today. I had to ask my DH to eat the rest of the Poptarts & pastries left over from the weekend. Told my DD to quit leaving her sweets here to please take them home. Now lets see if I can get through tomorrow.

CandlePrincess · 05-31-2006, 11:30 PM

I'm in girlies!!! I guess I will set my goal - hmmmmm, thinking 5 weeks - I want to do something I can actually accomplish on the scales....I will make it simple - get into the 150's - Right now I'm gained a lot of muscle - so the scale is a little further away from that decade, but I'm hoping with my new running skills (wink wink) - I will start seeing some scale results as well....So that will be about 5.5 lbs for me as of this morning and then TOM is next week - ...
