  • Ok It's time to start a new challenge. I did badly on last one so I will try harder this time.
    It will start today December30 and end on February 14. That is about 7 1/2 weeks.
    I am going to try to lose a minumum of 8 pounds which will be about 1# a week. If I can do that for 52 weeks that will be 52#.

    Jan 3 = -3 A good start
    Jan 10 = -2.5# A very good start
    Jan 17 = missed meeting due to grand-daughter being ill
    Jan 24 = Turtle Better than a gain but a loss would have
    been much better
    Jan 31 = -.50#
    Feb 7 = -1.75# 1/4# to go
    Feb 14 = -.75 For a total of 8.50#
    This is first challenge I have made

    Good luck to everyone and just do your best
  • I'm in!!! I'm going to take 8 pounds OFF FOREVER!

    My weigh in is on Thursdays.

    Jan 3 -1 1/4#
    Jan 10 +1/4 Wrong way!
    Jan 17 -1
    Jan24- did not go to weigh in/terrible headache, my scales say -1
    Jan 31
    Feb 7
    Feb 14 Well, I didn't meet my goal, but I am 6# lighter, so that is okay! So I'll go for the Easter Challenge. Eventually, I will make it!!!


    IF IT IS TO BE, IT'S UP TO ME!
  • WOO-HOO!!! I'm in this one. Since I don't have a lot to lose, I will shoot for 5#'s as of right now, but this may change if I lose my KOPS status this week. Need all the help and motivation I can get.

    Jan 2 - DOWN 3.........YEAH!!!!!
    Jan 9 - didn't go to meeting
    Jan 16 - will be out of town
    Jan 23 - I doubt I will be back at meeting weigh ins while this is going on. I need a break from some things in my life right now, and my TOPS activity is something I can control so I'm starting here. Really going to have to stay on my toes, but cutting out this one stressor just might help.

  • I will join too. I won't be at my meeting this week so will start next week.

    January 9 +7 pounds (since December 12)
    January 16 lost 1 this week but now I am 6 above my Dec
    weight
    January 23 lost 2.25 pounds and now 3.75 pounds above Dec weight...still 13.75 to lose to reach my challenge amount...don't think I will do it.
    January 30 lost 2.25 pounds and now 1.5 pounds above Dec weight....I won't reach my challenge amount because I still have 11.50 pounds to go...at least it is in the right direction now.
    February 6 down .25 still 11.25 to go which isn't attainable. My new goal is to lose the last of the weight I put on over Christmas.
    February 13 Down 1 pound this week.....didn't make my goal.

    I am going to aim for 10 pounds from my last weigh in during December.

  • Hi Eleni,

    Count me in for this one. I really blew the last challange and didn't get anywhere. I am going to lose 10 lbs by valentines day. But if I don't make that I will be happy with anything over 5 lbs.

    I am going to go back to my meetings this week. I have not been in 5 weeks. So here it goes. I am on my way to goal.

    January 3 - My starting weight tonight is 183 1/2

    Jan. 10th - 184 lbs (gained 1/2 lb) Not happy but trying

    Jan 17th - 179 lbs (lost 5 lbs this week) I am 1/2 way to goal.

    Jan 23rd - 179 lbs (I had a turtle tonight, I will lose next week)

    Jan 31st - No meeting because of snow & ice storm.

    February 7th - Gained 2 lbs I am not happy with this at all I am going back to the ww points and not going to concentrate on the SB plan. I am still going to do the SB but I am going to concentrate on the points this week and exercise.

    Feb. 14th - 1 3/4 lb loss = 179 3/4 lbs

    That gives me a total of 3 3/4 lb loss for the challange. At least I lost this time. Best of all I completed more of the challange then I ever expected to. I am down 1 whole pant size. I never imagined that would happen in 4 weeks. So that is even better then the weight on the scale. I would have liked to complete the 10 lbs but being 1 size smaller I will be happy with that. And I am closer to goal by losing what I did. At least I didn't gain like I have done on the last 2 challanges.

    I am ready for the next challange.
