Passover Challenge - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

2beautiful2Bfat · 03-19-2008, 09:00 PM

Well ladies we have only one month until Pesach and no one loses weight over Passover so lets see how much we can lose between now and then!!

I personally am aiming to lose 6-10 lbs by Passover. April 19th.

2B2BF -- you're part of the Tribe?? I would love to join you in this challenge. My goals, as you know, are not going to be so much weight based as behavior based, but I am IN! I just talked to my dad about running a 5K while I'm home for the holiday, plus, it's the next time I'll be going home, and my family is very weight conscious so I really like being svelt when I see them, because they always notice!

I'm in! I'll set the goal to lose 10 pounds before the attack of the matzos arrives! I hope we see this grow

Week one of our Pesach Challenge has passed! I don't get to have one of those nifty ticker things yet, but I can happily report that I have lost 3 lbs (from 192-189) so far.

ok so i'm getting a divorce from the scale, particularly time-bound challenges, so i can't say about a goal met or lost, but just wanted to say hi!!
i'm actually going to run a 5K on Sat, pre-seder, so that should help me stay motivated! other than that, i should probably come up with some sort of plan so i don't go off the deep end...

Congratulations on making your goal! And good luck with your 5K.

Lizzy how are you preparing for the 5 k?

Where are you for the seders? We are hoem and it is our first time and I'm doing all the cooking which is good and bad!! Good cause I can make healthy choices but bad cause it is a tonne of work!!

How is everyone else doing with their goals? I am 2 lbs under my pesach goal and quite happy about that!

Its moments before closing down the computer for Pesah. I am so glad that you have this challenge. It took me a while to figure out the dating system because I wanted a currant support group. I started losing weight in Sept. and have lost 35 pounds with about 25 to go. Basically, its a low carb and low fat diet from my doctor. Have a Pesah.

I am having real problems with my low carb low fat diet this week because of Passover. I really miss my comfort foods especially decaf coffee and gum. Its only a few more days I will be lucky to maintain this month instead of losing. On the positive side I have been very good about preparing and eating low carb/low fat foods and I was very conscientious during the evening Sedar meals.
Its funny how some weeks are just incredibly easy and others are a terrible slog.
This is definitely a slop week.
