Chicks Christmas Challenge- Please Join Me!!!!!!!!!
 

Good Morning,

This morning I had a great idea. Christmas is about 14 weeks away. I know that christmas is usually all about children, but this time let it be about us. Let's start a christmas challenge. That way we have something to look forward too. And we all know that the holidays are a time when you get to see all the relatives that you don't get to see once a year, so let's give them something to talk about.

I hearby challenge myself to lose 25 pounds by christmas 2004. That means my weight should be about 187. Wow I haven't weighed 187 since my daughter was born 3 years ago.

I am with you! 25 by Christmas would be WONDERFUL. I am 209 right now so by Christmas I should be 184. That would be wonderful! (I said that already right?)

Count me in, I love these challenges....Lets see my goal should be....235 by Christmas. I'm 270 by now...so that is 35 pounds...if that seems too unreasonable later on I will modify it.

me too !!!!!!!!!
i have 20 pounds to go to be pre-pregnancy weight (just before my first baby, 16 years ago....) oh boy that sounds like a long time.....
peace and love

Good going girls

I am glad to see that someone else is joining me on this journey. Good luck to you all. Remember to keep me posted on your progress. :grouphug: Now on three, GO FAT CHICKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am with you
 

I would love to join you all.
My goal for Christmas is 20lbs. That would put me at 194 - I would be below 200! That would be a good present for me!
:^:

I would LOVE to join you guys!!!
My summer is HOT, so this will be a wonderful start.
How is it going to work? Do we weigh in every week? for the 14 weeks?

I think that we just weight ourselves whenever but don't forget to keep everyone posted on your progress!!!! Good luck!!

I'm in. I want to weigh 130 by X-mas. That would mean 21 pounds. Cool post squabb

WoooHooo!! Another 5lbs off for me!!! I am at 265 now!!!!!

I think I'm in. 25lbs by Christmas would put me at 188lbs, which is almost halfway to my goal. I think I'm gonna go home tonight and just throw away all the sugary stuff. We can do this!

Michelle Y is in
 

Back For Day 2
 

Hello all. I didn't do as great at the gym today. I only did a 13.19 mile and quit. but I ran most of it. That is my fastest time yet. I have drank 64 oz of h2o already. So I am doing good with that. I want a large carmel swerl iced latte so so bad. That is one treat I need to give up though I hate to. They are so good. I don't know how bad they are as far as fat and sugar and all the bad stuff but I am sure they are pretty bad. Well, hope everyone is doing good. Talk to ya tomorrow.

Do NOT get discouraged over the mile time! We all have up and down days in the gym. I did 200 crunches on the machine one day. The following week when it was time to work my abs again, I couldn't do 100 without quitting. As long as you are doing SOMETHING and not sitting on your tookus 24/7, you are ahead of the game.

Good luck!
