Default Spring Challenge?

Is anyone up for a spring challenge? Since yesterday was the first day of spring, I was thinking of joining/starting a spring challenge. I didn't see one here already, would anyone want to do one with me?

It could run from now until June 21st (the first day of summer). We could set our own goals for the challenge and check in on the boards each day to update.

Anyone up for it?

YES!! Just tell me what it is and I am THERE! I love challenges- the competitor in me hates losing, and losing to myself most of all! Perfect time to start!

Great! What would you guys like to do? We could go for a certain number of minutes of exercise (like maybe 2000 or 3000 minutes for the whole challenge - which would be roughly 3 months). We could also do a weight loss challenge (such as lose 15 lbs.). People could choose do do just one of the challenges (weight loss or exercise) or both! If we all don't want to have the same goals, we can do individual ones.

What do you all think?

Hmmmm, I think that I want pounds. I tend to stick with the exercise challenge more on a monthly basis. And i think that 15 pounds before summer is reasonable. for me. Alright that is what I am doing startinnnnnnng.......NOW!

Weee! Time to make a new ticker! I love tickers!

15 pounds sounds good, my weight loss has slowed a bit this last month or so. Kind of discouraging, but I'll give it a try!

Should I start a new thread for the official challenge (which would be to lose 15 lbs. during spring) or do we just want to stay here?

Futurepixie, good for you! Way to start off the challenge! My weigh in is tomorrow, hopefully I'll be joining you with a good loss!

CharityKB, the title says spring challenge, I say we're good to go right where we are!

Great! Futurepixie, way to start off! Keep it up!

I weigh in tomorrow, wish me luck! It hasn't been a great week, so I am not expecting much, I may even gain

Hi Ladies! I'd like to join in on your Spring Challenge!! I'm new here and was looking for something like this to join. Right now, I have my own little personal goal to lose 23 pounds by June 7th (vacation time ). I'm a little worried that I may be going for too much weight loss too quick...but I decided to stick with it and give it my best shot because I really really want to lose it. So, I guess i will say that my goal for June 21 will be down 25 pounds. Do you guys think I'm in over my head?

I think I will join you guys on this challenge. However, my goal is different. I'm planning on trying to lose 33 lbs by June 21. Here's to all of us hitting our goals!

I'm up for the Spring Challenge. I usually like to do month long challenges so I don't get too frustrated, but this will be good. I am hoping to lose 20 pounds by the first day of summer. My 15 year class reunion is at the beginning of July, so it would be nice to be closer to goal.

Glad to see some of you St Patties Day Challengers here!!

My WI is tomorrow morning so I will be on then to update. Hopefully a loss, but I ate out 3 nights this week so not counting on it.
