  • I don't know when Memorial Day is, but count me in. I need something to get me back on track!
    I only needed to lose.2 to meet my Easter Challenge, and instead I went totally 100% off program from Thursday until right now. I was snacking on chips this morning...and I have WI tonight! I am sure I am up at least 3# from last week, I have been a one-woman-eating-machine! I feel bloated and grumpy but keep on going!
    Anyone want to be journal buddies for this next challenge?? Or maybe add journaling into the challenge to help us out?
    I am in a wedding in a week and a half. The dresses aren't here, so I don't know if mine will even fit. I got some jeans from friends and was estatic to fit into a size 32 again- but that didn't stop me from eating like a crazed woman!!!
    I am going to stop the eating like a nut right now, and get back on program.
    What will our next challenge be?
  • Hi everyone:

    Saskiemom - Memorial day is the U.S. holiday on May 26th. Guess it is like our Victoria day which is a week earlier. But the 26th would be good - would be a complete month to work on.

    Hope you don't do too bad at your w/i tonight. I didn't want to go last night since I felt I would be up and I was, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it might be. Think the exercising is helping. But I have to keep on programme & exercise as well.

    You know, we seem to be our own worst enemies. Everytime I get going & have a few losses, it seems I sabotage myself and end up going waaaayyy off programme.

    Anyway, lets get back on track & I agree - it would be good to share journals.

    So lets make May 26th our target date.

    I will make this goal same as last one - to be down to 190.
    Yesterday w/i was 194.2 and walk at least 12 miles per week.

    Good luck everyone.
  • I DID IT!!! I DID IT!!!! (m)
    I started the challenge at 193.8 and I wanted to lose 3 pounds.

    At WI today I was 190.2!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!

    I am so happy!!!!
  • Look wtaunton I am so happy for you I am giving you an applause.
    I am also going to do the Memorial Day challange.

    starting 190
    ending 185

    I don't how but from easter till now I gained 5 pounds. I am determined to get this weight off and start keeping it off.
  • Way to go, Wendy!
    Judmom- It has to be water weight, you cannot have gained 5 # in 3 days!!!!
    I will start the new challenge- lets move over there.

    I gained 1.2# this week, putting me almost back where I was at the start of the challenge! Oh well, it is the kick in the butt that I needed and I am ready to re-commit to myself, my health, and the program!
