Week At A Time Challenge #17 - Please Join In!
 
The object of this thread is to take on at least one challenge related to your weight loss goals for 7 days straight. Choose whatever inspires you - a certain amount of water intake, no sugar, 30 minute walks, etc.

I will award accolades for each day you maintain your goal(s), and 7 day winner awards and pounds down at the end of the week. We will begin each challenge on Monday - you can choose a new challenge or repeat any challenge for extra mileage. If you would like to stretch yourself, take on more than one challenge.

We will support each other keeping in mind to stay focussed on our successes and/or challenges of the day and week related to our weight loss. There are plenty of threads where a lot of time is spent on personal stories, so let's try to keep that to a minimum.

New Goal: My muscles have been feeling pretty tight from weight training so I want to do my stretching video every night.

Congratulations everyone for last week!

FishWoman 10-18-2005 09:59 AM

Good morning all! I am going to try the no alcohol challenge again. Yesterday was day one!

sandybhat 10-18-2005 10:39 AM

Hi:wave: Welcome Everybody to CHALLENGE # 17
My weekly goals would be
to increase my water intake
write everything I eat in the journal
exercise daily ( which I am doing for past 7 months)
hope to loose a pound this week:halffull:.
:cheers:

stacylambert 10-18-2005 07:22 PM

Monday was successful!

carla49 10-19-2005 01:39 AM

Hi all, just a very quick "hi, I'm fine". (hard to write with both hands full of the food I'm busy shovelling in.) I intend to blame the rainy grey weather...

Later, gators.

FishWoman 10-19-2005 10:03 AM

Good morning all! Yesterday was day 2 with no alcohol!

TamLynne 10-19-2005 01:52 PM

Am I too late to join in this challenge?

mscat816 10-20-2005 06:20 AM

Missing you!
 
Good Evening (hmm Morning) Ladies!

How is and where is everyone??? It seems I am not the only one missing in action. :?:

TamLynne :welcome2: Jump on in! The time to start any challenge is right now. Let us know what action goal(s) your are working on this week and we will encourage and support you through Sunday. Then we all start over with another 7 day challenge on Monday. We give you kudos for everyday you complete your challenge - so you still have 4 days of cheers coming your way.

Fishwoman :cb: :cb: for 2 days of no alcohol.

Stacy :cb: for Monday's goal - What stretching video are you using?

carla - thanks for checking in. Hang in there. Are you doing another 21-day challenge right now?

Hey Sandy - how are you doing on your goals?

Bonnie :wave: how are you doing? We are still praying for you and your brother :grouphug:

We are missing quite a few people here. 1of3 wishes, Sweetkisses we are missing you. Could we all be just busy to post? Or are we being overly concerned about content?

Although one of the purposes of this thread is focus and keeping the personal stories at a minimum, it would be cold and stagnant if we don't share some personal part of ourselves, including an occasional reference to joys and sorrows that have nothing to do with our weight loss.

My share for the week is I am going nuts. Things are so crazy, disorganized - and there aren't enough hours in the day! My grandmother has been moved to hospice and my house and work is in total disarray. All the stress is affecting my butt - which is growing. :fr: I am not getting my water, missed 2 days of exercise and skipping meals. However, for 2 days I fell asleep before 10 so I made my sleep goal!

So I am challenged this week. Any advise? Who else is challenged? If you are having success with your goals, please share how your are doing it. If you are challenged, share what and why and let's help each other be as successful as the 5 to 7 dayers!

3 days with no alcohol - it is definitely helping keep my calories down. This may be just what i need to finally drop below 145.

sandy - I am so sorry to hear about your father :grouphug: I hope you will be able to see him, but remember that he knows he is in your thoughts every day.
