Easter Challenge
 
Hey guys! I wanted to start an Easter challenge because I didn't see one :) Challenges keep me accountable so who is in? There are 10 weeks till Easter!:D

SW:210
GW:190

That's 2 pounds week! :)

I picked a weigh in day since it was requested by some people.
Sundays are the day! Here is the link to the spreadsheet to put your weight. https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?...thkey=CJunyLUH

Feel free to edit it and make it fancy =P

If you don't know how to add your name just comment on the thread and I will add you!

catahoula 02-15-2011 10:03 PM

I'm game. My problem is that I am from New Orleans and before Easter is Mardi Gras. So I will probably be partaking in some adult beverages that might sabotage my Easter Challenge.

Razorbackbritt 02-15-2011 10:08 PM

I'm in!

I think I could do 15 pounds by then!

So....
Now: 175
Easter: 160!

That would be exciting!

Princess of the KING 02-15-2011 10:22 PM

Awesome I'm excited!

Catahoula- You can do it! Don't give in!!! :)

girlinwaterglobe 02-15-2011 10:35 PM

I want to be 140 by easter! Thanks for making this!

HotPants 02-15-2011 10:45 PM

I'll try! I wanna get down to 108 by Easter. Lowest I've ever been in 2 years!

rainbowstripe 02-16-2011 03:08 AM

I'll join in! Kind of like updating my weight places haha. Going to set kind of a big-ish goal for me, as I know I'm losing slowly it might not be possible...but I'll set it anyway and try to get as close as I can!

SW February 16: 64kg / 141 lbs
GW April 22: 58kg / 127.8 lbs

Just over 13 pounds, 6 kilograms...definitely not a definite, but a possibility anyway.

Cat86 02-16-2011 03:16 AM

I'm in!

My starting weight is 132lbs.
My goal weight is 125lbs.

I love challenges!

Chele615 02-16-2011 06:31 AM

Ooh...I'm in :)

SW: 196
GW: 185

Princess of the KING 02-16-2011 10:54 AM

We can do it!! :)
I'm so sore today so no workout! My weight is up a bit I think because TOM is coming up and from the kettlebell workout yesterday. Hope it goes down!

Song of Surly 02-16-2011 11:58 AM

Totally in.

SW: 232
CW: 220
GW: 199

21 pounds over about 10 weeks. It may be a little bit aggressive, but man would it be something to be in onederland by the end of April!

MzJuicyD 02-16-2011 12:28 PM

Im in! I think Im going to shoot for 250! Currently, as of this morning, I am 267.4.

tropica 02-16-2011 05:51 PM

Oh! I am so in!!!

SW: 154
GW: 136 (normal BMI)

18lbs! I can do this!!!!

nickyj 02-16-2011 06:04 PM

I want to be at least 165 by then!

Razorbackbritt 02-16-2011 06:12 PM

How often will we report/weigh in?

Bonita 02-16-2011 06:47 PM

I'm in!

SW: 194.2 (88.1 kg)

GW: 184 (83.5 kg)

mdchick88 02-16-2011 07:08 PM

I'm in!! I'd be SOO happy if I could get down to a "normal" bmi for Easter... That's almost 20 pounds, so I might not quite make it, but I'm sure I'll get close.

SW - 178.6
GW - 160

emilyszynaka 02-16-2011 07:24 PM

I'm in I'm gonna shoot for 20lbs I know its a big goal but I've gotta get back in my nice clothes. I have nothing to wear that fits!

I think we should weigh in once a week for a progress update :)

Lets stick to this ladies!!!

Catahoula - Mardi Gras isn't that long and don't feel guilty for a little indulgence its only once a year! Just don't go overboard you'll be gravy!! :)

Princess of the KING 02-16-2011 10:00 PM

Okay guys! I set weigh in for Sundays! I figured that was a good day since Easter is on a sunday!
I also made a spreadsheet. Feel free to make it fancy and what not! I'm not good with them =P
Here is the link: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?...thkey=CJunyLUH

I'm also adding the link to the original post!

est1991 02-17-2011 01:11 AM

I'm in! But I think I'm only going to shoot for 10 pounds. So my starting weight is 165 and my goal is 155.

Cat86 02-17-2011 04:45 AM

OOH I like the spreadsheet idea! Although...with me not being good with technology, when I type in my weight each week, does it automatically save or do i have to do something fancy? Sorry for being clueless!

Princess of the KING 02-17-2011 07:12 AM

Cat86- It should save for you!

Song of Surly 02-17-2011 10:02 AM

How cool is that spreadsheet! That is such an awesome idea. :) And I had the same question, Cat, so at least some one else is clueless too.

Razorbackbritt 02-17-2011 11:21 AM

Excellent with the spreadsheet! I usually don't get on 3FC on Sundays..but I will update it first thing Monday morning with Sunday's weight.

JLNichols07 02-17-2011 12:23 PM

My easter goal is going to be 130...I'm sure the lower my weight gets the harder it's going to be to lose the weight. So..
SW: 144
GW" 130

mdchick88 02-17-2011 06:39 PM

Cat - You probably have to click File -> Save to save your changes

EDIT: Nevermind, just tried it, and you apparently don't have to click save. That's cool!

Princess of the KING 02-17-2011 07:45 PM

I made sure to set it to save on its own :)

girlinwaterglobe 02-17-2011 11:44 PM

Wow, thanks for making that spreadsheet. That is such a great idea.

SweetPeach3388 02-17-2011 11:49 PM

I would love to lose 15 pounds by then! I'm trying to be realistic, but we'll see!
So SW: 187
GW: 172

MaddieBPhoto 02-17-2011 11:59 PM

I'm in!! I'd like to get to 158. I'll be in CA for a week in March so I'm sure that will set me back 5 or so pounds. I plan on eating some amazing Mexican food!!

SW: 171
GW: 158

Kristen81985 02-18-2011 12:10 AM

Love this.
I'm 150, hoping to reach 135 by Easter. That will bring me to my lowest weight EVER in adulthood.

Blcarter84 02-18-2011 09:45 AM

Ooo I'm so in on this
SW-189.6
GW-171

We both want to get down to normal bmi and lose about 20lbs. We can do this!!!

Princess of the KING: You are so awesome! Thanks for making a spread sheet for us!

Song of Surly 02-18-2011 11:59 AM

So, can I just say that I have been dying for it to be Sunday so that I can put something on that spreadsheet? No idea why it makes me so excited, but it most certainly does.

monstermash 02-18-2011 04:07 PM

I'd like to play, too!
I'm currently 250
I'd like to be 230 by Easter
That was my normal weight through my early 20's.

I don't know how to do the spreadsheet but I'll try!
ETA: I think I did it properly.

Me too!!! I am so excited! I just hope I lose something! :club:

Cat86 02-19-2011 01:56 PM

I'm so excited about weighing in tomorrow! I think it's the spreadsheet...

CurryMama 02-19-2011 02:07 PM

I'm in too! I added my name...hope I did it right.

Razorbackbritt 02-19-2011 02:58 PM

How about I sweeten the challenge? I make cute little homemade totebags (perfect for reusable grocery bags or just your average tote) and I will make and send one to the person who loses the most % of fat. I make them for fun as I learn to sew...so I could use an excuse to make another one!

So, ten people might lose 20 pounds, but whoever loses the most % based on their starting weight. So someone weighing 180 losing 20 pounds lost 11.1%, more % than someone weighing 200 losing 20 who lost 10%....get it?

I will figure % at the end of the challenge and send a tote bag to the winner! :-)

PS. Pictures of some of my totes http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Vcg4glJ5w2...0/IMG_0114.JPG http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Vcg4glJ5w2...0/IMG_0113.JPG http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Vcg4glJ5w2...0/IMG_0094.JPG
