Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I know I responed to this thread. but I'm so new to this board I don't know where to find my original message. It doesn't matter though. I think I put my goal under: keeping the faith, on the above list.

I finish Induction tomorrow on the 14th. I've lost 17lbs so far everyone and am extatic!! Everyone sharing there goals has been an inspiration.

Since I can't find my 1st thread I'm going to guess what my weight was then: I think it was 235 and I said I wanted to lose 25lbs by x-mas. So that goal would be 210. and Right now I am 228. So I've lost 7lbs so far and have 18lbs more to go by Christmas. I can definately do that!!!! There's no other diet plan that give so much hope. Good luck everyone I know you can all make your goals!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Hi everyone!
Well, nothing to report... am cutting down on coffee and cream though... Only had one cup this am and one decaf in the pm... I had gotten way out of hand. Thinking that may be a staller... so cleaning up my act. I felt like a crack addict looking for a fix this morning though. (not that I would really know what a crack addict feels like! It's just an expression. lol!)
Also, have been consistently walking 3 miles a day. Really gonna push myself to stay on track with daily exersize and no day offs til the weekend when I'm working.
Also pushing the water! Have been all puffy lately from all the coffee and not enough water!
So, still hoping to make my goal, but am not going to weigh again until next week.
btw????
Emma???? I can't get that darn christmas tree in my siggy???? could you help me please by giving me the written code for the pic? not the actual pic? Pics don't seem to work for my computer, only copying the written code. I know! weird!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Oh Emma, I'm down nearly 3 lbs again. I'm doing induction again. It was so easy the first time but it's so hard after OWL... I am still having a daily dark chocolate and black coffee to keep me sane.

My goal is to drop another 3-4 lbs in these next few weeks and then I'll start climbing the owl rungs again!

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

seeee! i told you it would be off before you knew it!

[Louloo]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Can I join in? I would like to lose 10 lbs by Christmas. My start weight is 180.

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

You can, but you need to come back here each week and weigh in with us!!

Welcome to the challenge Lou!

[chicamarun]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Well I've lost another pound bringing it to 8! Of course I feel like it's going a lot slower since I joined the challenge But no biggie - I expect a WOOSH one of these days - LOL

[Alexa]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Hey Emma,

Sorry I've been a bit awol in this challenge. I am down another 2lbs (after going way up again) so my progress: 3/13

[Ebonyspice]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

down 4lbs

[PinkBikini]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

That red wheal on my stomach... that I had suspected might be a food allergy even if there was only 1... well, it had gone way down. And I had a nurse practitioner look at it and she said it may be fungal. Anyway, it was dark and fading and flat... after my "sugar and fast food treats" it is red and reinflamed a few days later now. Besides that the only thing I may have reintroduced was soy sauce... I believe it had been a little while since I'd had that.

Do you think I developed a sugar intolerance??? I'm going to see how long it takes for it to reduce again... or at least not be so red... it's just strange that there's only one. I understand that food allergies usually have multiple spots and rashes and not just 1 spot and also that most people suffer all the way along the GI tract including laryngeal spasms too...

AARGH. At least I'm able to reintroduce foods one at a time and notice what an impact they have on me. I've never done that or had that suggested before despite years of GI trouble, tummy cramps, etc with meals.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Are we supposed to come back and weigh in each week? I didn't know that Emma. What day each week?

[*Emma*]

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Don't worry about it Mickkey! it's mainly for the zero posters ive said that to as weve had so many come in and never come back! You're Okay!!!
