Default May POP Challenge!!
Hey everyone! Let’s do it differently this month.

Bring out your competitive side! Let’s challenge each other to see who can stay POP the most days in May. Of course, we should all shoot for 31!

Keep track of your POP days and we’ll see who the winner is for the month. I wish we could give out prizes, but I guess weight loss & better health is prize enough!!

We'll check in at month-end and I'll post something w/ our results.

Who’s in?

Count me in! I am going to make a calendar and keep it in my food journal and mark the days that I stay POP. Thanks this is a good idea. Have a great day everyone.

POP is Perfectly on Plan. No deviations.
And honestly I should participate. Ok you got me I will. I am doing TO today so I will count that as POP and also tomorrow as long as there are no slip ups. Good luck all!

Woohoo joiners! Hopefully my competitive nature will kick in and I will do good this month.

Cecilia, I bet if you stay POP most of month you'll be less than 5 lbs from goal.

I hear ya Shannon. I’m already at a disadvantage here b/c we’re going to Las Vegas the last week of the month. So at best I’ll be POP for 25 days. But that’s WAY better than 16 days last month and I still lost 4.2 lbs. It’s what you do the majority of the time that counts.

If I can stay POP until we leave, I’ll meet my Memorial Day goal and probably be down another 5-10 lbs before my vacation. Which is a must b/c I just ordered a bunch of clothes to wear on my vaca in the next smallest side b/c all of my stuff is starting to get WAY too baggy! If I don’t stay POP, I won’t fit into it!

Speaking of clothes…….this is the first season in YEARS I’ve still been able to fit into my clothes from last year. Not only that, but a lot of my clothes from last spring/summer are too big! I went to town on my closet the other day and I have so much stuff! Ranging from size 18-36! I can’t wait to be able to wear some of my old favorites. I found stuff that I’ve never even worn before & lots that was practically new but I outgrew too fast to wear much. Crazy.

It will be so nice to fill up my storage bins w/ clothes that are too big instead of too small.

Default POP Chart!
I attached a chart so we can see who’s winning our challenge! Keep me updated on your progress and I will update our chart on this post. Check back often to see how everyone is doing!

Hopefully all those blue bars we will be even b/c we are doing such a great job supporting each other!

Ok I wasn't sure what pop was I guess so I updated mine to reflect my real popness. Not looking so good. I was counting days when I wasn't getting all my food in as pop. Oops!
