Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

It's almost time to weigh in. I'm still scale free, but now I find myself a bit nerous over what the results might be. Anyone else feel this way??? Just finishing my 3rd week makes me wonder.....

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

Morning everyone!

I think most of us are a bit anxious about the results stayin off those scales for the last couple weeks.. I know I am!

Its so good for us not to rely on that scale to determine our accomplishments but it really is hard to 'not know' also. We've all been 'trained' to think that those numbers are the do all be all in weight loss and how we reach our goals. But in reality, it really is how we feel and how we choose to change our lives to feel good!

I know I won't remain completely scale free, but I will push for a once a week check in but not rely solely on the scale to determine my success!

I'm soooo proud of all of the gang for hangin in there and for making this so much fun along the way!!! wooooooo hooooooooooooo to ya'll!

Oh... and when is our official weigh in, i'm sooo confused! lol Is it Sat or Sun?

Oh oh (thats sorta like a p.s.s) Punxsutawney Phil didn't see his shadow!! weeeeee spring is just around the corner!

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

i've gotten that feeling in the past, rhiannon. i suppose on my very first no scale challenge. that was ages ago and i was not at goal. i gained 7 pounds during that 2 weeks. i was freaking out back then.
why the gain? stress was probably most of it. maybe the exercise was not on target. what i do know is the eating was good. i've learned not to freak or get weirded out. if the pants fit, then i'm okay.

during this 2 weeks, i've had days that i felt bloated and days that i have felt skinny. i really have no idea if i will be in the 5 pounds range of my goal weight. it's no big deal to me right now. my totals for exercise during january were probably the best i've ever had and that may mean that my scale number is higher from building my muscle mass.

we're on day 13! 2 weeks can go by very quickly! remember..... don't weigh until sunday morning!

patty, i am pretty consitant getting between 12,000 and 12,500 now with snack attack. it's hard to get above that. i have to think of upcoming moves and i don't want to think that hard. :0
have you noticed the game cheating? no kidding, i'll see moves when the little pop up screen comes on and says the game is over. big cheating game!!! and it will tell me no more moves and i'll see one before i click reset. big fat cheating game!!!! lolol

myjack thanks you for the pm's! he is scale free! easy to do when you don't know where it is! i'm scale free too.

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

Hey All! A great day so far! No weighing for me, and since we are this close to the final day, I have almost forgotten about my metal bathroom decoration all together! *yeah right* Anyways, abs challenge is going well, and eating is going well too. Craving sweet and crunchy today. My dd opened a box of fruitloops and it kind of set me off. I haven't indulged but I would have liked to! Anyways, off to post, hope you all have a great weekend!

I'm in but I won't weigh in until March 1st Okay?

Hi everyone. I was directed here by 13 Jane. I'm on induction day 8 with no weighing in since day one. My plan is to weigh only once a month on the first of each month, not counting Feb 1st. Is that okay?

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

some of you are going to hit sunday morning before i do and i won't get in here till tomorrow afternoon so i figured it best to get this done now.

if you signed up for this challenge and if you stayed off the scale, not stepping on it at all on January 21 (the official start date) and never stepped on it again till February 4 (February 3 is the last day, 14 total days), not even once (after all, that was the challenge), then you have earned the

Weigh? No Way! Challenge graphic.

for some of you, this is your second badge of honor with this challenge!

congrats for earning it twice!

some of you are earning this for the very first time!

well done!

CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERY ONE WHO STAYED ON TRACK!

the only change on the graphic from the first time is the date was taken off, this insures that we can continue to award this graphic each time we do this board wide challenge. feel free to modify your graphic with the date or the amount of times you have earned it. for example, i could modify mine with a "2" signifying i have earned it twice. you could modify it by adding the date or you could also just display it twice in your siggy.

Re: Semi Annual Board Wide No Scale Challenge

Erin, if you're not going to weigh in tomorrow b/c of TOM, I'll wait for you so we can hold virtual hands!!
