Hello Everyone!!! Welcome!!
Morrigan…I like how you’ve included non-pounds lost goals in your challenge. I think I’ll do the same. SO I’m changing my goal:
1) 10 lbs lost
2) exercise everyday I don’t have school (after work) for at least 30 minutes
3) limit dining out to only once a week for dinner and once a week for lunch (this will allow me to go out on a date AND eat lunch with my supervisor)
Rahkstar…I agree with you…having the challenge helps me stay focused too. I think for me its because I feel accountable to something. Besides I love the feeling I get when I meet a challenge. I think I might be a closet competitor.
Justsomegirl…I like your attitude after all isn’t the weight loss battle mostly your attitude. I set a goal of 10lbs for Easter and even though I didn’t make it I was happy with my loss. I think it was the fact I got below 200 for the first time in forever.
Jigglybits…I just gotta warn ya…when you hit Onderland after being about 200 for a while it’s a brand new feeling. I hit it yesterday and I think I’m still on a high. I wanted to cry when I saw the scale stop on 198.8lbs. I even took a picture of it for my scrapbook.
Just wanted to give ya warning…it’s a great GREAT feeling.
And as to when and how often you should post and what….just what ever…I post at least once a week when I weight in…however if I’m having a bad day and need some support I post then too…and if it helps post your points. I post my on other thread and it’s helped me a lot…. I firmly believe the more we post the more we help not only ourselves but someone else too.
Katie…I think most of us would agree with you on the weather. I’m in Texas where it’s been relatively mild all winter but even I feel a difference. I’m not an outdoor-type person but I’ve enjoyed it the last few days.
Shari…glad you came over girl…I was worried you’d be upset I started another challenge. I just had such a time finding yours….had to find a post by you here to click the link.
Cryket…I think you do fine on the Easter challenge. You didn’t give up and that’s the hardest thing to me. By your other posts we know you’ve been frustrated with it so I’m glad you didn’t let your frustration bring you down.
Well I guess I should get back to work.
Hope everyone's day is going as well as mine is.
