    Everybody did great on Our THANKSGIVING CHALLENGE~Some of us met our goals, some of us only got partway there,some went the wrong direction, but we all put in a great effort, learned some lessons, made new friends, and supported each other... and that's what these challenges are for. Now, we're ready to set our sights on a new challenge, new goals, and the next month of this journey.Then we will start our next one.

    Here's how it works... Set a goal or goals that you would like to reach before Decemeber 25th ~Christmas day . Your goals can be anything: pounds you want to lose, a smaller clothing size or outfit you'd like to fit into, sports or fitness achievements, or just a goal of keeping food and exercise on track. Whatever gets you excited about working your plan over the next few weeks, is the right goal for this challenge. You can set as many or as few goals as you like.

    All are welcome! If you're not sure what your goal will be yet, but would like to join up and find some weight loss buddies, get and give support, please jump in, and you can post a goal later, when you think of something. Our main purpose is to motivate each other to keep the food on plan, keep exercising, keep getting leaner, more fit, and healthy. REMEMBER: Even if your not a calorie counter Your more than welcome to join!The more the merrier!I may not be able to check in daily,Since I am a mom of 3~ But I will do my best too. HAVE A GREAT CHALLENGE EVERYONE

    TO EVERYONE &

    TO EVERYONE

    AND MAY WE ALL HAVE A SUPER CHALLENGE & A MERRY CHRISTMAS
  • I hope everyone had a super Thanksgiving too~ I think I will aim for a weight of 135 By Christmas Or lower..Since I had a no count today for Thanksgiving today & see how close I can come to fitting into a pair of size "0" Jeans I have in my closet...LMBO~That would be the day...Ya never know though.(doubt I ever do though) Anyways Basically Just still gonna work on toning...Not much more to go~Been going great. HUGS TO ALL !!!! KEEP STRONG EVERYONE!!!! I will try to check in again tomorrow..Off to bed.
  • This is very timely for me!

    I was just thinking that I'd love to be at GOAL by Christmas. I'll have one month to lost 7.6 pounds and I think that is totally doable. Especially since I have the feeling that my weigh in tomorrow will put me even closer to goal weight. I might only need 5 or 6 pounds to lose in the next 30 days.
  • Happy Thanksgiving everyone and welcome, Matt!

    Of course I'm up for another challenge! I am going to be realistic about the holidays and set an attainable goal. I think I will shoot for 194, which will keep me well within onederland (yay!) and put me at 80 lbs lost for 2010!

    According to my ticker, that's only 4 lbs...but I have a feeling I'm weighing a bit more after today! Going to get back on track tomorrow but stay away from the scale for a while...oh the games we play with our own minds, lol.

    Looking forward to another challenge! One of the many things I'm thankful for
  • Hope Everyone had A Happy Thanksgiving!

    My Goal for Christmas will be to lose 10 LBS. I didn't reach my GW, but I still lost some weight -3.2. For the month of December that is great.

    SW: 241.6
    CW: 238.4 (-3.2)
    GW: 231.6


  • Ugh... the food was good but, I feel cruddy now. My body has definately gotten used to eating healthier. BUT that's a good thing! That's what I want. I will get back on track tomorrow.

    I'm pumped for the Christmas challenge. For this challenge I want to:
    1) not cheat
    2) eat less processed/more fresh veggies
    3) lose ten pounds

    Let's do this!!!!
  • I hope everyone had a good Turkey Day!! I had a great day but did eat more then I should have..UGH!!
    So, Im new here, Ive been a member for a little over a week,, I think. I love this place and would love to get in on the challenge. I would like to be down to 160 by christmas day, I know it will be tough but I think I can do it.
  • Welcome to 3fcs fg35!

    I think your goal is too high though. Losing 21 pounds in 30 days, especially when you weight 181 is a bit much. Maybe try to lose 10 pounds?
  • I would like to join, if thats okay!

    Current: 152
    Goal for Xmas: 145
  • I have been trying to lose the same 20 pounds for a couple of years. It is ridiculous!! I will stay on plan 2-3 days AT MOST and then just act like I forgot all about it until a couple of weeks later when I get fed up again. I don't know why I can't do it.

    I am sitting here this morning (no work today) THINKING about exercising. I am a little disgusted with myself. So...my goal for Christmas is to......

    STICK WITH SOMETHING FOR MORE THAN 2-3 DAYS!!

    I know if I would eat a little less and move a little more I could EASILY meet my 20 pound goal for my daughter's wedding next summer. I know I would feel better and maybe get off of some of my prescriptions. There is no doubt I would look better too. I know WHAT to do....I just don't do it. Maybe this challenge is what I need. I hope to post on here on December 25th that I have been faithful to my eating plan and exercise plan. I think if I just eat around 1400-1500 calories a day and take my dog for a daily walk, I will see results.
  • My big goal: be below 180 (really below, like below 180 no matter what time of day I weigh in.)

    My actions to take every day to get me there: plan my meals with in my calorie range, walk/run/yoga/hike every day.

    I think it is totally doable.
  • Gooood Morning...
    I'm ready to get back on plan for the month of December!

    My goals:
    -Stay within calorie limits each day

    -Find a way to incorporate healthy food when friends are in town/when I'm away visiting friends this month, instead of constantly eating out and over indulging

    -Avoid too much alcohol consumption... this is again a problem when with friends.. must find happy medium!

    -Continue to train for 8k in March, with primary goal of improving speed/ completion time

    -Start Bikram Yoga the week of Christmas (studio offers 30 days for $30 unlimited for first timers @ this location, plus I have a Groupon for 20 more classes... I'm good until Spring!)

    -Reach Christmas goal of a 4lb weight loss, down to a weight of 122lb

    Wishing you all a successful, healthy December!

  • Good Morning!X It's Black Friday and I get up with a sore throat, cold and feel misrable. Oh well wasnt going to shop anyway. I tryed that once and to me it wasnt worth it. I dont like crowds and I want fight for something which in east texas that happens. Its crazy. Well I can proudly say I didnt over eat and scales so far looking good. So I know I can do this. Christmas challenge is on.:smile:

    CHRISTMAS CHALLENGE TO LOSE 5 lbs
    :ginner:251.6246.6:n ewyear:
  • This is gonna be fun this time! This is my favorite time of the year and after yesterday I know I can say NO MORE!! So my goal will be to be on plan each and every day.
  • I'm in, again!

    I had gotten down to 70.5kg / 155.4 pounds, but today I am closer to 70.8 kg / 156 pounds.

    I'd like to keep my calories in check this month. I'll be working more, so I may face a few challenges, but I can do it. No letting them get too low either!

    I'd like to keep my exercise in check as well! No fewer than 3 days a week, preferably 4 or 5. With more work, this could also be difficult, but I'm sure I can do it. Keep working on the jogging, I really am enjoying it!

    For my weight - well I'd like to see the half way point of my goal and pass it. I've got a goal in another thread that has me seeing 66.5kg / 146.6 pounds. I'm not sure how likely that goal is at the moment. I'm going to set it in this thread for 67kg / 147.7 pounds. It's still quite a bit to lose, but I'll work towards it. We shall see.

    Looking forward to another challenge with all you lovelies and new people too!!
