    Don't Wait for 2008! - Century Club Challenge

    Hi all Century Club members!

    I never realized how many CCer's there actually were on the ADBB! I would love to get to know all of you and provide/receive support along this weight-loss journey from people who have been in my shoes.

    SO

    I propose a challenge - Don't Wait for 2008! Let's challenge ourselves to lose as much as we can before New Year's Day. I definitely need to be held accountable through the holidays so hopefully this will motivate me to get my butt in gear! If you have 100 or more pounds to lose then you are a Century Club member and free to join this challenge. We have 50 days until January 1st!! Here's how the challenge will work:

    1) Sign up here if you want to join the challenge.
    2) Let us know your current weight and your New Year's goal weight in your initial post.
    3) Check in here regularly to let us know how you are doing and post your weigh-ins at least once a week.
    4) I will track everyone's progress as you post your successes.
    5) When you meet your New Year's goal weight you will receive an award to post in your siggy!

    YAY! I'm really excited about this challenge and hope some people will join me.

      YAY Austlyn! I was getting a little worried that noone would join me. I weigh in today and will post my official starting weight this afternoon.

      That's a great goal Austlyn! You'll be in the 2's by New Year's!!

        Welcome to the challenge, Dr. Who. I like your ticker! I'm going to try to make a graphic for this challenge ASAP so we can put it in our siggy.

        Okay, I weighed today and my starting weight for this challenge is: 345.4
        My goal weight for New Year's Day is: 330
        Total Pounds to lose: 15.4
        Definitely doable by the new year I think.

        Hope everyone is having a successful day on Atkins!

          I just edited the 1st post in this thread to list the challenge participants and goals. I will update that post often as we lose weight!

            Okay, I'm in, my goal is to be 305 or less pounds so 22 for me. I only weigh on Sunday, so I will post every Sunday morning. Good Luck everyone.

            P.S. inhisgrip, thanks for putting this together I think it's a great idea.

            Current weight 327
            40 year old male 6' 3"

            What I know:
            1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
            2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
            3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
            4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

              Hello everyone I wanted to join the challenge. I am currently at 185 and want to weigh 165 or fit into a size 16 by the new year. Can I do a pant size? Is that legal on this challenge.
              And just so you know, I started out with 100+ lbs to lose, that's why I'm posting here. I want to take advantage of my free membership

              Thanks!

                Hey Bluebelt, Thanks for joining!

                Hoping, Welcome to the challenge. Yes, you can make a pants size your goal. I'll put it next to your goal weight.

                Okay, well I'm about to go eat dinner. YIKES! It's already 9:00! I've been on here way too long. Hope everyone has a great day tomorrow!

                    Hello! I'd like to join in. Current weight is 288. New Years Goal 275 It's going really slowly this time (3rd timer) so I'm aiming for 13 pounds gone by the New Year.





                    290 lbs. on 11/02/07 Goal: 145 lbs. or size 14 whichever comes first!

                        OK fine, I'm in. My short term goals were under 320 by turkey day, and under 300 by Christmas. So I'll keep 300 as my goal for New Years, starting here at 331.3, so a goal of 31.3 pounds.

                            I'm in! Today my weight is 259.5. I would like to be 245 by the New year. Thank you for starting this challenge. I'm also happy to see the CC alive and active. I really belong here. I've managed to take off 100+ pounds and have 35.5 pounds to go. I believe with all the support, I'll get to goal again, and stay there this time. Thank you! HUGS
