The 5lb Challenge
Jodi and Rubens were talking yesterday about doing a five pound challenge. It seems like a great idea, so I propose that we start today, Wednesday 17th March, and the challenge is to lose 5lbs by the end of the month, which is a neat two weeks. We could weigh on Thursday 1st April in the morning to get that yummy overnight weight loss in!
I am up for it! It is a good challenge for me, as 5lbs in two weeks is doable if I do some exercise, drink the water, and stick to the plan.
All you phase oners will of course lose 5lbs in about 6 hours, but I am on phase two and my loss has stalled a bit so I really am up for the challenge.
Who is in?

Me too. And, just to let you know, as a Phase I chick, I have only lost 3 lbs so far! And, to make matters worse, last night I was 226 at the END of the day after dinner and this AM I was 227. I keep repeating to myself "water weight, too much salt" but I am really annoyed.
In any event, this is a reasonable and do-able challenge so count me in!
Since you started it, Clovey, is this the .357 stone challenge?

I am going to jump into this challenge too. As a returning newbie, I need the goal to keep on plan. It is amazing to me that April is just 2 short weeks away. Good luck everyone.
