South Beach Diet - Abby's New 6 Weeks Challenge

Hi Everyone, :wave:
I am new to this site. I have not totally figured out all the turns of posting here yet. I have been on th South Beach diet for 3 months and really in the past 10 days been faithful to it. Well, I am down 20 pounds and loving it! I wanted to challenge everyone to a new 6 week goal.

Abby's Challenge:
1. Exercise at 4 times per week(gym, walking, jogging,etc.). :ebike:
2. Stay totally POP all 6 weeks.
3. Lose at least 12 pounds and 1 size.
4. Journal each day
5. 1 positive statement about yourself each day.

"Starts May 30th and ends the July 4th week.!! "

Do I have any Takers. Think the reward will be a new and improved you! :sunny:

Count me in! :)

Welcome to The Beach and congratulations on your weightloss to date!

We do have a weightloss and exercise challenge going on but it's monthly. See the stickies at the top of this Forum. Feel free to join in or start your own.

I could do it... but I'd just change a few things to make it "My own challenge"

I would just add that I'm NOT going to be POP on June 27th - my b'day :) and I'm going to start with 3 days exercise - and hope to be up to 4.

Sounds fun :)

Good for you!

:yes: Count me in too! I love challenges!! ;)

count me in. I need a challenge.

I have just started my journey with SB and am determined to lose the weight that I have been carrying around for a very long time. I am 5'5" and weigh 176 and don't feel good about myself.
I had tried WW, Atkins and just on my own and did not do very well. So, I am dedicated to eating differently and so far it has not been very hard. I started Phase 1 on Sunday and am trying to adapt to not eating as much and finding out that I am not as hungry.
I hope to learn from others on here and if I can be supportive to anyone else please let me know.
Thank you. :)

Welcome to The Beach, Lady. Be sure to check out the FAQ and the Phase I Emergency handbook at teh top of this Forum.

I'm in .... what exactly does "POP" stand for ?

I appreciate the welcome and am looking forward to reading everyones post and sharing a little about me.
I am going to my daughters wedding this Saturday and even tho I haven't lost any pounds so far I have lost inches. That sound strange but my clothes are not as tight.
Hope everyone has a good day. :cool:

:o

Please count me in...I am going to print off what is the "challenge" and will adhere..

I have a big family function on July 4th...so, I want to show them that I am HOT and not temperature wise..haha!!!

Mostly, I want to "show up" my DHs family...I know that is bad..but he has some cousins that are our age and we have 2 kids...and I just want to be "oh my goodness, she had 2 kids and has a body like that??" hahaha!!!

-Sarah-

Sarah, how tall are you? 130 is pretty good! I can't wait to be back down to 130 :lol: .....but, 110 is what I'm 'supposed' to weigh for my height, so I'm shooting for 120! :D I bet you'll look great and be the talk of the get-together!

Count me in! I love a good challenge and today's day one for a South Beach restart.

I need to know how to put my weight loss scale on my reply. I find the website and it tells me to put in some kind of code and then I get lost after that, I am not real computer literate. If someone can give me some help I would appreciate it.
I went to my daughters wedding over the weekend and did pretty good staying with the right foods and only fell off if there was nothing else available to eat. I am down to 174 and feel good, I can already tell that my clothes fit better, not so tight.
Everyone keep up the good work.
Have a good day. :)
