  • Hooray for lowest weight ever!!!
  • @StNessa79 Thank you!!!

    You know guys, I really gotta say this board and especially the challenges are totally making this work for me. I love to come her and chat with you and share the experience. I think without 3FC I would have quit by now. I am at a weight that feels comfortable, all the clothes in my closet fit again and I feel great. But I am discovering a never seen before competive side now. I am doing this until I am going to reach my goal weight!! Thank you everybody!

    And thank you too!!

    I also really like the challenge set up - esp. having it for a specific date and then having my own personal weight loss goal.

    I already started to think ahead after this one - it turned out that for when I started, it was a 10 week challenge for me. So when this one ends, I was thinking of creating another challenge for 10 weeks after this one ends, which coincidentally enough goes to Oct 10 - so it will be a 10/10/10 challenge, 10 weeks on plan to get to 10/10!! (although I may try for more than 10 lbs, depending on how things are going for me at that point!)
  • Let me know when you post the challenge. I am in!!

    Will you call it the 10/10/10 challenge so I will notice it when it starts?
    I will join it. I stick to my diet better if I am involved with a challenge.
    Thanks!
  • It sounds like everyone is doing great! Here's to an OP week!
  • I'll set up the new challenge towards the end of July and post about it here too. I'm glad that people are so interested, I think because we are all seeing the benefits of being a part of this challenge! I definitely think about "well, I'm not going to cheat because I want to get my 10 weeks on plan!" that I challenged myself to do.


  • I have lost another pound this past week. I am staying on my plan.

    And I have been snacking on strawberries all week from my garden.

    I just hope I don't get hives from eating so many.

    A momma Robin parked her baby Robin in my yard between the strawberry patches. So I am sharing them with the little guy every day. He eats only 3 or 4 a day.
    He is so uncoordinated yet, it takes him a couple of hours to get one down!

    I hope all of you are able to stay on plan and lose this week.

  • Aww at the momma/baby robin story, Jolina! Congrats on your 1lb gone!

    Josey- hurray for lowest weight ever! 1lb down means 1lb closer to your goal!

    April- I'm sooo in for the 10/10/10 challenge!

    I'm down to 189.4 as of this morning! 9.4lbs to go for this challenge! Gotta buckle down if I'm to make it.

    Sending to everyone!!! Hope everyone is having a good week so far!
  • Late starter here!! I am totally in...that gives me 6 weeks. I *MUST* have a stone off by then!

    Start weight (16/06/11): 143lbs
    Goal weight (31/07/11) : 129lbs

    Let's not thing of the mountain we have to climb...but focus on how good we will *ALL* feel when we check in on July 31st with our progress. WE CAN DO IT CHICKS!!!!
  • Hope everyone is having a great week!! Hello bella83!

    OMG! You are fading away amandie! Awesome!!! Now I really have to work to catch up to you! I peeked this morning and it is looking good. I hope I can hold onto that until Sunday.
  • Happy Friday, everyone! I WI this morning and have 5 pounds to get to my July 31st goal. I hope you are all doing great, and I hope you have an awesome weekend!
  • Hello everyone ! So glad I found this challenge ! I so much need to be here. Six weeks to the end of July is just what I need. I will be at my goal of 199 by then. I have no excuses not to. You can count me in. Just what I soooo sooooo needed. Thanks so much. I will be checking in to report my progress.
