We are going to make it to onederland~!

My goals this time around are....
1. 195 by Thanksgiving

2. Weigh and enter everything I put into my mouth into Fitday
3. Drink no less than 80oz of water per day
4. Exercise 700 minutes this month of November(will revise in Dec)

5. I will watch my caloried and carbs. I am aiming for 12-1600 cal a day.

We did the halloween challenge this month and didn't quite make it, however we did lose weight and we will make it to onderland soon!!!!!

Come on in and join us!! You know you want to!!

Even if onederland isn't a goal for you, feel free to join! The halloween challenge was a lot of fun! Even though we didnt' make it to goal, we are much closer now then we were before! Better to aim high and fall a little short then to aim low and reach your goals, is my motto!

My goals:
1) obviously, get below 200!!
2) walk 20 miles on the treadmill this month (dog walks not included)
3) get to 195 by Thanksgiving too!
4) Fit into my size 16 pants at some point before New years!!
5) Don't overeat the legal foods!! Stop eating when I am full!!

Goodluck Rikki!! And anyone else who decides to join us!!

Okay.. I am off to Curves.. I am going to start this challenge out right!!!

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

Rikki,

I am here! I can't hit onderland by Thanksgiving unless I lose 61 pounds in 24 days, but I am game to set a few goals. So, here I go:

1. Eat only induction list foods--no soda, low-carb snacks or emergency peanuts.
2. Exercise 30 minutes a day five days a week.
3. Get to 240 by Thanksgiving day.
4. Record my food, water and exercise in my journal everyday.

Whew, that is a bunch of stuff!

So, I will toss those 10 candy bars I bought or take them to friends kids!!! LOL- Good luck on this challenge baby!!!!! 20lbs is quite a bit for 24 days.... Have you not slowed since starting?- NOT saying you can't do it- Go for it! For me I think the 9 I am trying to lose is gonna be very hard!

No, I am at a stall right now, but I am setting an ambitious goal for myself.

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

Welcome, so glad you are here!!!!!!

Great goals!! keeping a journal really does help to keep you from accidentally veering from course, and eating only induction foods will really help the weight come off quicker!! What kind of exercise do you like to do? If you need any suggestions let me know

Well I wasn't happy with my halloween weigh in, though that's what i get for thinking that it'll be a "given" getting to my goal,

.. Complacency is my enemy, lol! But it did move me to action! Went to Curves and did that for 40, walked my dog for 15, and did treadmill for 33 minutes. (1.5 mile, half of which was done at an incline.. and at 3.0 - 3.3 mph)..

There is a huge basket of candy in front of me for the trick or treaters.. havent had any, but i cant wait until it is out of my sight.. Darn halloween!

Hope you both are having a great night!

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

Hey you guys! I just clicked onto this thread from another thread altogether! I don't think I will make it to onederland by the time your Thanksgiving comes (end of November right?), but I would love to just make a few goals for myself! Can I join? Pretty please?

**loser4life** · October 31, 2005, 07:14 PM

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

Of course you can!!!!! Yeay!!! We are all gonna do great I know it!!!! Now, tell us some of your goals!!!!

**divaindubai** · October 31, 2005, 07:38 PM

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

I'm joining you all!!

Babydreamer! I just realized that you and I are around the same weight at this moment! I'm trying to get down to 242 (110 kgs) by the time my mom comes to visit us December 6th, 2005, but that's great you have a goal to get down to 240 by Thanksgiving! I think I will set myself an easier goal, of losing 15 pounds, get down to 242 by the time 24th of November comes. Probably close to your goal as well! We can do this!!

Okay here are my goals for this challenge.

1. Not going to drink diet Coke anymore.
2. Going to exercise and burn at least 300 calories every other day(using my eclyptical machine that I have, and from any walking I do as well)
3. Drink 2 litres of water per day minimum.
4. By New Years Eve be down to 220 lbs. (100 kgs)
5. By the end of November get down to 242 lbs (110 kgs)

Re: ~~~Winter Onederland Challenge~~~

Rikki,

Thanks for the wonderful comments. The biggest change I can see is in my face. I just hate to think I got married like that when I already know I can do better. Perhaps I will make Josh re-marry me in a different gown next year on our 1 year anniversary if I am at goal.

Any excuse for another party!
