    Default February DANDR Quote A Thon Challenge

    FEBRUARY
    DANDR QUOTE-A-THON CHALLENGE



    PLEASE READ..............................
    Your signature is seen in many places on this board. Maybe it's in Spotlight forum or maybe you post in Journal Chats. Do you visit the Main Forum or do you find yourself in the Food and Recipe Forums each day? Consider this challenge an opportunity to bring the best of DANDR to other members and maybe you'll even give yourself a boost along your weight loss journey.

    ANYONE can do this. Non Supporting to Supporting Member, Newbie to ADBB Admiral. We've been having Moderators and this Administrator along for the last several months but ANYONE can join.

    In this challenge, a Challenger will be required to post a supporting, movtivational and/or helpful quote from DANDR {2002 edition} in their signature no less than 3 times a week for the month of February. Your quote, along with the chapter and page number, will be posted in this thread and in your signature. When the quote changes {no less than 3 times per week}, you should post the new quote in this thead and then in your signature. The requirement is 1 quote at a time in your signature but you can post all of your weekly quotes if you want and if siggy room allows.

    The Challenge will begin with the first full week of February {which is February 5 thru 11} and will continue thru each full week of the month. Nothing will be required February 26 - 29. A little bit of a break because there are only 3 full weeks in February.

    a few details:
    1. A week is condidered Sunday thru Saturday.
    2. February 4 is the last date for adding to the list of challengers.
    3. When you post the quote in this thread, supply the chapter and page number along with the quote.
    4. No less than 3 posts per week are required and 1 post will equal 1 quote. In other words, don't make one post on a Saturday which contains 3 quotes. 3 quotes = 3 posts.
    5. Supporting members should have no trouble adding a quote to thier signatures but some challengers {non supporting members and possibly Newbies} may not have the ability to post a quote because of limited signature space. Non Supporting Members and/or Newbies may have to tweek signature space by replacing smilies, weight stats, etc, for the month of February.

    Earning the Award will be based on the above.

    I'm going to take a raincheck on it this month, Jo as real life is taking over a bit at present. ;(

    I will vary my signature quote from time to time and put a link to this challenge in my signature though to encourage others to join in or at least read the posts.
    Are you having problems getting most of your net carbs from vegetables on induction?
    Join our veggies challenge by 20 May to get the motivation and knowledge you need!

    Vegetables most dense in nutrients are lowest in sugar and should be your primary choices.

    mary, repeating doesn't matter, it's not such a big deal. what we're doing to encouraging no matter what the quote is. encouraging to us and those who read our siggies.

    I'm gonna give it another go in February... I'm finding some people really help motivate my choice of quotes by their posts... and some quotes just jump out at me because of the stuff I'm going through... but bottom line... I like putting the quotes in the signatures because I think it sends a good message to others about reading the book. Thanks for a great idea Jo... and like you told misson... I'm not going to worry about repeating quotes (kind of a relief)... I'm just gonna go with the moment and quote what feels right when the time comes... fun stuff.
    Grins to ya and have a great day.

    10/8/10 - Started w/ADBB - 234 lbs - highest pre-Atkins - 248 lbs.
    2/18/11 - 1st Goal - 200 lbs - completed.
    8/06/11 - 2nd Goal - 180 lbs - completed.
    12/25/11 - Pre-maintenance - In progress.
