So I am thinking about what to call our next challenge--I want to keep us together--any ideas?

One thought I had was doing another 14 weeks since thats what we did with the thanksg challenge. that would take us up to March 2013--what do you all think???

I usually need goals to keep me going. Just a few suggestions for dates.

Jan. 01 - New Year's Day
or
Feb. 14 - Valentine's Day

or for the days in March -
Mar. 20 - First Day of Spring
Mar. 31 - Easter

Just my 2 cents. :)

im already doing a valentines day challenge of my own, lol. theres a thread.

how about first day of spring?

Love the first day of spring idea!

Mar. 20th it is then. :)

start a new thread or just keep going on this one?

1 more day!
 

hi all!

okay so here it is the last day and weve made a lot of progress since we first met--we are a winning team for sure. I lost another pound this am making it 2 lbs this week.

How about we do our final posts tomorrow and I will post a link for the new thread?

Sounds good. Now heading out to my Pilates class.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!:happ3: :thanks2:

Oh darn, I missed all the votes--would have chimed in for April Fool's Day, but that's just the sort of weird person I am! First day of Spring sounds nice!

So glad everyone wanted to continue, was wondering about that . . .

Looking forward to it!! Thanks, Sno.

I am up for another challenge. Not really being competative because I am realistic that you cannot put a time on weight loss. You are all a wonderful group to travel this journey with. I am sure I will need support throught the holidays. I used to make fudge and cookies as gifts. I am thinking of making caramel/chocolate dipped prezels this year. I may have to sample a few but it will less fattening than fudge. So many teaches to buy gifts for this year. My girls have 10 classes each and only a few overlap for teachers.

I will look for the link. Have a Happy Thanksgiving ladies. I am off to make my DH his special Thanksgiving pie. Caramel Pecan Pumpkin Pie. Its so good and no bake. I need to make 2 because he wants to bring one to work. He works Wednesday and Thursday night.

i thought about that too but there is another thread with an april fools challenge. lets have a special one! lol

also going to weigh in tomorrow morning. im trying calorie cycling for 2 weeks and not weighing in but im going to do a cheat for this challenge. i wont count it officially but just to see.

I'm so happy to report that I've lost another 1/2 lb. That is a big deal for me!

ok so i did my "cheat" weigh in this morning. im not counting it or changing my ticker but i was at 181.7!!!

i lost 13.3 lbs during this challenge from 9/15 to 11/22 and im so proud of myself! im proud of all of us! cant wait to read everyone else's final weigh ins. im going to try to be careful today but not too crazy.

happy thanksgiving all!

Hi all!

:dust:

Julia, that's fantastic! I know you were discouraged there for awhile!
Sno, 19 lbs? Wow.

Lishar, thank goodness my DH didn't see the caramel pecan pie reference (sounded wonderful!) or he would have wanted one, too.

My weight was okay this morning, but sometimes it seems to take a few days for the pies to catch up to the scale. And leftovers, oh dear.
