Talking Turkey Day Challenge!!!!

Hi Everyone, I'm Stephanie!!!!

seems to be lacking in the Challenges department and I want to get this thing going again. A few years back, these challenges are what kept me accountable, and I want that again, and I know there are SO many of us that would use that too!!!

I will keep track of our start weights, our goal weights and then your current weights and we will see how well we do!!!!

There's always a holiday right around the corner, and in my eyes, there's ALWAYS a potential challenge to keep us on track!!!!

Thanksgiving is a little under 2 months away, 55 days away! That's a great amount of time for us to get ourselves in gear and drop some of this weight!!!

Lets do this together guys, what do you think?!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Default Re: Turkey Day Challenge!!!!

Welcome Glenda and Michelle!!!! I'm so glad you guys joined!! I was starting to think I was doing this solo! LOL. You guys would have thought I was crazy having a challende by myself! LOL

We can start whenever you guys would like. We can start today or even Monday if that works better for you guys!! I am going to keep track of my stats now though, just b/c it will keep me accountable for this weekend.

Just lemme know what you ladies would like to do!

As of this Morning, I weighed in at 177.2, which I am very excited about! I also want to set a realistic goal for myself..so I am thinking maybe 162ishh?? What an odd goal, right?! LOL But it's 15 pounds..so we will see

I am so excited, you ladies just made my weekend!!!!

Hi Stephanie!

I weigh in on Monday in addition to taking my measurements. I'll report in & give you my goal Monday evening. I think you've set a decent goal for yourself! Are you doing Induction??

Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

Mondays good for me too. Thats the end of my first week of induction. I'm typically a pokey loser all but 1 week a month so I'll have 2 think on my goal.
One really important thing goal wise to me (besides weight) is mon-fri exercise. Want to help keep me accountable?
Anyone up for daily menus so we can check on each other and get new ideas?

Thanks Lauren!!! I have missed you too!!!! So are you joining us or just teasing us?? LOL

We can definately start Monday, that's great for me too!!

Michelle, I always end up posting my menu and I have to have some sort of exercise goal.. I haven't really started exercising yet, but I think this will be a GREAT way to get me moving!

Glenda, Thanks! Yes, I started induction 10 days ago, and I am so happy that I have stayed on track so far! LOL> Do you think 15 pounds is too much?? I used to always think I could lose 10 pounds a month only to be sadly dissapointed, so I tried to be more reasonable this time. LOL

I had a great Saturday...I DH and I took the kids to this awesome park that we found and they had a blast. And it wore us out too. LOL. So I am feeling like that sound definately count as some exercise for the day..LOL. We also went to the store and got some things we needed and then hit the Halloween store which was a complete waste of time. LOL> They had the SAME exact costumes that Target had, same brand and everything, and they were charging 10-15 buch more!!! Insane!!! I have my daughter's costume but not my son's and it is so hard to find a good toddler boy's costume these days..LOL

Alright ladies, I have to run. Talk to yas tomorrow!!!

Hi Stephanie,

Thanks for starting this - I need a challenge!

I'll weigh in on Monday, and am pledging 10 pounds. (I'm a slow loser!)

Wendy

PS Spiderman was the rage last year at my daughter's preschool for the boys. This year I'm hearing alot about pirates!
