Hi everyone! I was trying to think up a new challenge and I saw this commercial for Monique's F.A.T Chance. I LOVE Monique, she's so beautiful and confident...just happy with herself. I wanna be like that so I decided to name my challenge after her show. Monique's F.A.T Chance premieres on Oxygen July 15 but our challenge will end on the 17th. I am so revved up! Join me ladies!

BTW, F.A.T stands for Fabulous and Thick, which we ALL are!

I am in! Do we have to pick an amount we want to lose?

SW: 188.4

If you want to. This challenge ends two weeks after July 4th.

Well I want to be 170 for July 23. So 175 by the 17th? That is 13 pounds, that could be tuff, but I am willing to give it a try!

So...this should be good...a nice mini-goal to work towards. If I absolutely stick to my eating and exercise plans...I should be able to lose...at the very least...um...dont bite off more than I can chew (pun intended). Ill say 15 pounds. Im in!

Go for it Court!

Welcome Anguilla!

I'm in. I am starting at 238. I am just going to make my goal 5 lbs because it is so hard for me, and I don't want to make an unrealistic goal for myself.

dustcatcher

Count me in with 10 pounds.

sw 208

me too, me too! still keeping min 64oz of water/day and 3hrs kickboxing/wk and -5lbs.

nola

current: 179
goal: 174

Ok, I'm in.

5 pounds is all I'm going to do, I'm trying to be realistic with myself, knowing that's going to be a really hard target for me!

Wow...this is going to be sooo good...I hope everyone meets their goals! JasonsLea, how often will we report our weight? Whenever we post or just wait til D-day? I cant believe that after this challenge I will actually be back in the 200's after God knows how long. Dustcatcher, you have the right idea...don't set yourself up and then be overwhelmed, remember...the tortoise did win over the hare. That slow and steady weight loss is always considered the best weight loss...Happy Losing Everyone....LETS DO THIS!!!!

Count me in ladies....I think 10lbs is a realistic goal for me.. I just have to exercise...thats the hardest part..i love tv..so i guess i will have to utilize my ipod and listen to some music...If i meet this goal Im getting my self a new shirt....I have your back Anguilla... We in this together

everyone! Thanks for joining! This is gonna ROCK!

Dustcatcher and Wide in Winnipeg ~ What are your real names? I just hate using screennames.

Ang ~ I start a new thread each week either Sunday night or Monday morning. You post your weight on whatever day is your WI day. You don't have to do it that way if you don't wanna. You do what makes your comfortable.

I'm SOOOO happy you are all here! We are gonna kick some butt!

My name is Wendy and I always set up the Beat the Bulge game!! I think you're involved in that one!

This is going to give me that extra push I need to get back on track!Thanks for the challenge!My weigh in day will still be Mondays.

SW=138lbs
