Anyone interested in another challenge?
 
The Spring Challenge ends this weekend, is anyone interested in doing another one? Memorial Day falls on Monday, May 31st this year, we could run one from April 5th - May 31st.

I'm not sure what I'll use for a goal this time. I'm thinking I'd like to get a handle on my snacking though... and stop eating after 8 pm.

Me:) I may pick the same goal. Knowing I had to admit to cheating on here was a great deterrent! Or maybe I need to focus on something else. But I am determined not to miss the start day this time!

I'm so in my goal is to lose 20lbs and keep it off :) so starting the 5th of april? :)

I'll join in! I'm going to participate in the 20-Somethings BL challenge too this month so I'll have accountability overlapping on accountability!

I'm thinking about it Heidi. I love the idea but had some real trouble remembering to log the last time.

I've been doing well with the Spring Challlenge, but don't you know I forgot to post there yesterday? :dizzy: I did manage to lower my BMI into a more acceptable range, and that was my goal, so I'm very pleased. :)

I'm up for another challenge, but I'll have to think about a new goal.

Heidi58 04-01-2010 06:07 AM

I've had a lot more "met the goal but forgot to post" days this time, too.

I'd like to get to 136 and get my BMI in the normal range!

I wonder if it's better to not sticky it and just let people update so it's at the top more often than not?

I think I am in. An all exercise goal (I coped out a lot with water) I think...or veggie eating as I seem to lax in both...

I would like to join this challenge! Not sure what my goals will be, but one will definitely have to be exercising at least 5 days a week. Memorial Day starts pool season and I would love to have firmer arms for my swimsuit and tank tops!

Good luck everyone, see you on April 5th!

Because we edit posts rather making new posts each day the thread wouldn't move to the top.

I make the graphic a link in my signature so I can just click that and go right to my post to edit it. That's been helpful for me. I do my exercise challenge post that way too.

I'd love another challenge! The last one really jump-started my return to SBD.

I think I managed to reel in my binge-y snack-y grazing. So I'll have to pick another goal. Exercise probably, as I haven't gotten back into the swing of that yet.

Yeah - the posting everyday was rough. Even when I was here lots (like yesterday) I'd forget. But I'll keep trying!

Ohhhhh, right. Heh. I are smart.

Heidi58 04-01-2010 06:42 PM

oooh Jenn, your siggy looks so spring now! :D

Heidi58 04-01-2010 08:01 PM

I started the challenge thread.
We won't begin posting for points until Monday, but the thread is there waiting for sign ups. :)

Reminder - you get 1 point for DOING whatever your goal is and a second point for POSTING in the thread each day. If my goal was "Eat breakfast within an hour of getting up and stop eating before 8 PM" I'd get 1 point each day that I did those things and a second point each day I posted in the thread saying I'd met my goal for the day.

Be sure to choose a goal that you can track daily for this challenge. :)
