STAC Exercise & Weight Loss Challenge

Please join Vickie and I in competing in the STAC Exercise and Weight Loss Challenge. We hope that every STACer who signs up will start drinking more water, exercise more frequently and get a little closer to
your goal.

The Challenge will run from Saturday February 28th until Easter Sunday April 12th.

The rules are simple.

1. You must commit to posting an update daily including daily goals like water intake and exercise.
2. You must commit to exercising at least 30 minutes 4 days a week. Be specific on your daily goal. Example: walking, elliptical, aerobics, weights, distance etc.
3. Post a reasonable weight loss goal and weigh in every week. Just make sure you try to use the same day of the week.

We will post a challenge member sticker with instructions on getting the sticker into your siggy shortly.

Challenge finishers will receive a prestigious award.

STAC...Second Time Around Club

Hi Miab
STAC is an acrynom for Second Time Around Club - members of our group have attemped (often successfully) Atkins - sometimes more then once (ME!) - and, for what ever reason, have to start again. In my case... regained ALL my weight lost. Bad me!!
But good me now because I'm back and going strong!!

[EverLosing]

Wow, I'll go ahead and say I'm in....but I'm really going to have to think about a specific weight loss goal! Hasn't been easy lately and I'm an inches loser apparently and rarely a pounds loser. Are we doing measurements too?? Because otherwise...I can work my butt off and look like a couch potato!!!

[Miab]

cool I'm a second time arounder myself! I gotta think about what kind of goals I need to set.

[steady as she goes]

I'm in! I'll have to think of a weight goal too.

If I'm not mistaken, what we're really after here are weekly weight loss goals - accompanied by a weigh in report (eg. Today I'm 210 and this week I will lose 2 pounds).

Julie is the Challenge guru here (I'm just the guru's handy assistant) so she'll have to pipe in with the real truth of things.

If I have the right of it, working with these smaller goals will be much easier!

To add the siggy sticker participation egg just click on the picture. Then left click your mouse. Then copy the address and past in the insert image icon (located on your tool bar). I hope this makes sense.



Still thinking on the measurements. It may be that you will have to add your total inches together and then report in how many inches lost,but we still want to see a weight loss goal and weigh in once a week. To go with all of the entries.

I will work on this more later.

Here is how I plan on doing mine for the weekly weigh in

My daily post will be something like this;

Yesterday I had a goal of 3 liters of water. I drank 2.5. Today's is 3 liters.

Yesterday I managed 2 miles on the tread mill and weight trained my upper body/lower body for 20 minutes. Today I went for a long walk and then swiming for 20 minutes.

Now back to work.
