State: Louisiana | Labor Day Weightloss Challenge
Next Monday, Labor Day will only be 10 weeks away!
Anyone wanna go for -10 in 10 weeks? I sure need this boost!
Im guessing that Jonathan is in transition right now, and will put our info into his site as soon as he checks in. He wanted before/after pics on this challenge. But Ill wait till he gets back and let him persue that avenue!
We can start on Monday - and weigh in every Monday afterwards.
And you are welcome to set your own "goal".
-10 in 10 weeks is a fairly decent weightloss goal for most of us to aim for.
Anyone???

I'm in for 10 in 10! I'm gonna kick ya'lls butts cuz I'm getting my first fill on July 6th! wahoo!! So we are posting start weights on Monday? I'll be here!
DeLarla, I think you make a perfectly lovely head-cheerleader. I'll need it because I have all this gumption today and will likely peter out in a few weeks. Keep us driven! Get your whip! (and I know you have one).
Jonathan, we'll be here when you get back...

Hi Phyllis!
On Monday's, just post your current weight.
LaMadam actually strated the original one. Everyone was complaining about not losing any weight. So the challenge was started to show us that we ARE losing, we just cant see it on a daily weigh in, but we CAN see it on a weekly or bi-monthly weigh in.
Oh, and Jonathan has a web site that he adds our names, starting weight, current weight and goal weight. Seems easier to keep track of!

I am going to try as well... I have been lurking (only) lately, but I need to get it together. I had to have all of my fill removed due to heartburn & reflux and I cannot get a re-fill until July 6. I have already gained 3 lbs and feel like I am craving things I haven't craved in many, many months. I cannot stop myself from eating!!! I need serious help and support, so count me in.
Thanks everyone, I LOVE THIS BOARD!

okay, Let's add a twist to the pix part. I say we wear the same outfit in the before and after so that we can get a realistic portate of the weight loss.
