Aaaah....that's too bad for that board that you found us here at ADBB. Definetely their loss, Vicki. You're a wonderful addition to the board!

TOS is very different among boards. It's hard to becareful of what you're doing sometimes and trying not to offend the board owner or the TOS.

Glad you're here and started this Memorial Day Challenge (see I remembered lol)!

Hi everyone! I want to join in on this challenge. I weighed in at 185 this morning and my Memorial Day challenge goal is 150! Thats only 35 pounds and I know I CAN do it! Just finished Boot Camp and this is the perfect thing to keep me motivated! Im looking forward to a sexy summer!

Re: Memorial Day Challenge...

I'm down 3 pounds now. Might be more but TOM is doing weird things this month. Just finished boot camp along with some of these others, so back to my Berries rung! YEAH!!!!

Looks like everyone is doing great. I think it is wonderful that we will be better in January than December when everyone around us is going to be moaning about all the weight they gained at Christmas!

Re: Memorial Day Challenge...

Hey, Christy! Welcome to the challenge!!! I love that folks are joining in!

Yea, Kacey! 3 pounds gone is awesome!

I have a headache as big as the titantic right now, so I'm going to have to play it easy this morning and see where I need to aim my goals.

I met each of my goals yesterday! Woo hooo!

Hope everyone has an awesome day!

Re: Memorial Day Challenge...

Well, good morning all......I see a few new persons........Well, WELCOME TO ALL ....We can do this.....this coming summer will SOOOOOOOOOO different with a healthier and sexier body. I weighed this a.m. and am holding...which is fine...I might start weighing once(or twice) a week after Thursday (that will be a week for me) since I know that it will be coming off slower after the intial water drop. Water is o.k. too...since it helps get rid of all the bloat in my face.

Have a nice day and BE STRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Memorial Day Challenge...

Good morning, everybody.

I am eating well and exercising. I am up 5 lbs! I think it is because I ate several meals out this weekend. (I retain water pretty easily, and restaurant foods have a lot of sodium in them). Plus, I ventured out and added one new food -- could be an effect from that? I'm not sweating it.

Hope everybody can stay strong through all of these temptations of the Christmas Season. IMHO it's the hardest time of the year to eat legal.

Have a great lowcarb day, everybody! Get out there and exercise.

Re: Memorial Day Challenge...

~seeing more people signing up~

I wonder.... If we all put our weight losses together how much we could lose....
I mean it might not be a good idea, after all it *is* individual... I just think it would be very awsome as a group to lose 500lbs or well however much it is we're all trying too....

As for me.... Induction flu actually turned out to be a virus

... but still having an okay start. I didn't want to weigh until the end of week one, but I sneaked on the scales - 0.5 up!!!!! Thats till I realised a) It was afternoon after eating not morning like I usually do and b) My pockets were full of phones, keys and other things.... taking that off I was down 2.... and in the morning it was 3.5! yay me!
~knowing its just water... but the sooner thats gone the sooner the chub goes~

Is there actually someone running the challenge? Like is someone keeping track of who's in, starting weights, and weekly/bi-weekly weight losses? Just wondering.

I just got back from a 40 minute walk. I counted 111 steps per minute times 40 minutes = 4,440 steps. I am beat!!!

Hello....Well technically I got it started, although I really do not have the time it takes to keep track of everyone and their individual weight...wish I did. Soooooo, if there is anyone interested in the job...please feel free to step up and "Getter Done". It is a good idea, but it would have to be someone that has the time on their hands to devote to it. If no one does, well, we can add up all who hang around and finish at the end of the challenge when it is over.
You see me mostly at work....I drop in and out....the computer at home is acting stupid most of the time or the old man has it tied up.
