LOOKING GREAT SCARLETT!!!

I finally had the courage to wear that green dress I showed you (from the "12 Weeks to Take Off Part I" thread).

Check it out!

I was at the Inspiration Awards in Los Angeles, supporting Susan G. Komen for the Cure for breast cancer.

oh beila is that you on the picture? it's so cuuute and i see you're doing fantastic ;D

and scarlett damn girl you rock. now you guys have really motivated me to start over when will the 12 weeks to take it off III start???

I'm down for Part III!

I can't handle the spreadsheet though, but if Scarlett or someone does it, it would be great to see the next part of our transformations in Part 3!!

I’m going to do a 6 week holiday challenge. It will basically follow the same rules. The only difference being Tuesday (rather than Thursday) weigh ins because it works better around the holidays.

Baseline: 11/22
Week 1 : 11/29
Week 2 : 12/6
Week 3 : 12/13
Week 4 : 12/20
Week 5 : 12/27
Week 6 : 1/3

Hopefully having to post the first weigh in the week after Thanksgiving will help us though it. I’ll make the new thread sometime next week. Then once we’re into the New Year I’ll probably start 12 weeks part 3. These challenges are keeping me crazy accountable so I want to keep them going.


Belia – OMG you look so glamorous!!! That color is divine on you. You’re on the “pink” carpet and everything. I hope you enjoyed every minute of it. Also I just checked out your weigh in congrats on the 130s!!! You’re doing amazing.

I actually ended up wearing the dress I posted in the last thread too. I just unfortunately have no pics of it. I wore it to a wedding and had the absolute best time. It felt so good to wear a dress I bought 3 years ago but could never fit into.

Thanks everyone! The weigh-ins look great! I definitely need this! Last year, I gained weight due to not caring (gained 20 pounds).

So yes! Let's do it again! We can start marketing it now and ask people on this thread to "post" their rsvp on the new challenge.

I'm so excited!

Scarlett, I'm so impressed with your transformation! Your latest pic is AMAZING! Love the layered look with your skinny jeans!

Oh Beila you look fantastic in that dress!

I'm up for the 6 week challenge and the for Part III. Scarlett, may you please post the link to the 6 week challenge here? I don't want to miss a single day of it. Thanks! BTW I like the spreadsheet and have not had any issues with it. You're a genius.

I definitely packed on the pounds over the Holidays last year too. I told myself the diet starts on New Years so I ate like I'd never see a cheese puff again. This will be a huge help.

I don't have time today but I'm not working tomorrow. I'll try to have the new spreadsheet, thread, etc finished and posted by Thursday night. I haven't started anything yet but it probably won't take me all that long.

Ok I just made a spreadsheet for the new challenge. Here it is if anyone wants to sign up

I thought it would be fun to do a bright islandy color scheme since many of us will be cold and wanting to do nothing but eat.

I'll finish the rest of the Holiday challenge stuff by tomorrow night and post a new thread then.

Thanks

Scarlett - I can see such a huge difference! Way to go!

Beila - You look so great! That is a beautiful dress.

I'm totally up for another challenge. I'm hoping to get under 200 by the end of the year!

Here is a quick article about what foods to avoid during the holidays. I know I have a soft spot for those "savory puffs" from costco!

I'm definitely in for the 6 week challenge too..love the purple shades!! I added my name into the new spreadsheet as well.

Me too! I bookmarked it. I love keeping track of this stuff! It's weird. I used to track my weight every day even when I wasn't really dieting and I weighted 120's. Must be the OCD person in me. :P
