  • 2009 I Am Worth It Challenge

    THE 2009 I AM WORTH IT CHALLENGE
    will focus on
    EXPECTATIONS.

    We beat ourselves up over those scale flucutations, we set unattainable goals, we let others dictate our success and lack of positive comments from those around us put us in bad moods or worse yet.... send us straight for the chocolate chip cookies! These are just examples of things that might not live up to our expectations of doing and staying on Atkins.

    In this challenge, you will be writing a short essay on what your expectations are concerning your chosen WOE.... Atkins. This essay may be posted in your journal [Journal Chats or Journal Stats Forums] and then pasted in this thread, if you wish. If you don't have a journal in either of those forums, you can simply write out and post your Expectation Essay in this thread. Remember, you can edit your post if you want to add more thoughts to your essay.


    SIGN UP AND WRITING YOUR ESSAY FOR THIS CHALLENGE CAN BE DONE NOW THRU DECEMBER 23

    You can sign up now and post your essay later, if you wish.
    There will an award for those who participate.

    What a good challenge............. there is no right or wrong, nothing to debate, just a good, honest, personal look at what you and I expect from our lifestyle of eating and living.
