Make 2014 Your Goal Year! Challenge 4/6: Summer 2014 (June 21st - September 21st) - Page 8 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Streudel · 09-14-2014, 11:48 AM

TOM chose today to visit, so I'm probably pretty lucky to be down a 1/2 lb. I'm hoping for a little post-TOM whoosh next week.

Really, it's hard to be disappointed with a 15 lb loss. I hate missing goals, but it wasn't for lack of trying. I'm thrilled that between this and the last challenge, I've lost 37.5 lbs. so far.

Hope everyone has a great last week!

I have noticed Streudel and AAD are kicking it! Me, not so much. I am somewhat happy with 245.3 this week. Will keep pushing on....

xRiotGirl · 09-15-2014, 10:26 AM

Streudel - 37, almost 38 pounds!!! You should be so proud, that is awesome!

And AAD - Congrats on meeting your goal early! It's all profit from here...

Is anyone else sort of flabbergasted by the fact that there are only TWO challenges left to complete the year?? Insane! When did all that time pass??

xRiotGirl · 09-20-2014, 01:21 PM

Arghhhh I came so close to goal! I really am not disappointed at all, considering how my progress has slowed down since February when I began this journey. And also considering that I have swapped my cardio for strength training. I look and feel better than I ever have in my life, and so although the numerical goal doesn't match up, there is something much great in the works.

And hey -- I STILL lost 16 pounds!!

How did you guys do??

Great progress, RiotGirl! 16 pounds is awesome!

Here is my progress. I was up and down and all over the place this time. At least I ended it a few pounds down, and I'm awfully close to the 150's which is exciting.

Anyone know if the new challenge has been posted yet?

Well, I came darn close, only 2.5 away from goal. Between 2 challenges, I lost 40 lbs., so that's a win.

Great job everybody!

We should all be very proud of the weight we lost over the summer, or as I like to call it: BBQ, boardwalk, and carnival food season.

I haven't seen the new challenge posted, and sadly I haven't seen Dreamer 2012 in a long while, so I hope I'm not out of line, but I'd like to see if I can get the Google spreadsheet set up for the next challenge. Even if I can't get the spreadsheet going, we could still do the next challenge without a sheet if anyone's interested.

I know these challenges help me so much and I'd like to continue. What do you think, ladies?

forkeeps2013 · 09-21-2014, 12:00 PM

Streudel: Congrats on the fabulous progress you made! That's inspiring.

I think it would be great if you could start the next challenge. Dreamer probably has something else going on right now in her life, I don't remember seeing her lately either. It happens to all of us.

Personally, I do not use the spreadsheet as I think it asked me to create a Google account and I have no interest in that. But I faithfully update my original post here every week (I don't tag it onto the end of the thread, but I suppose I could start doing that). You should start the new challenge. What is the time frame? Through the end of the year? Until Winter (Dec. 21)? Or maybe just through Halloween? I will sign up no matter what you choose. Let's do this!

MarliQQ · 09-21-2014, 12:49 PM

I was wondering if Dreamer was still around. I am all in for you Streudel carrying on a thread for the next time frame. I have pretty much participated in the challenge for most of the year, so it would be missed

.

End Weight 09/21: 170.5

Just short half a pound

. But looking at my chart it looks like I lost 5lbs in one week

, which is totally not what happened...but looks cool

. Next month will be numbers I know that I have not seen in my adult life, so I am excited.

Streudel · 09-21-2014, 01:48 PM

Fantastic! I'm so impressed with how many of you have kept going throughout the year. I'll be happy to help keep this going.

The new thread is started here.

Streudel: Thanks, I'll check it out!

AAD: Great, you surpassed your goal! I love your steady progress, you are another inspiration here. :-)

kmruby1 · 09-23-2014, 12:15 AM

Thanks Streudel for keeping the challenges going! I agree that these weekly weigh ins help to keep on track for at least slow steady weight loss for now.

Start of challenge =6/21 253 lbs

End of challenge = 9/21 245 lbs

Total wt loss = 8 lbs and I am happy with this

kmruby1 · 10-03-2014, 10:02 PM

Hellooooo? What happened to the next challenge and where did everyone go?

forkeeps2013 · 10-04-2014, 08:42 AM

Scroll up a few posts to Strudel's last post, there is a link. And congrats on your success with the summer challenge!
