Rabbits and Turtles United New Year Challenge



Recommended Posts

1-3-06

Today I weighed 254.5. My NSV would have to be working the courage up to sit in the cheering section at our basketball game today.

I don't usually do the challanges, but since it is a new year and I want a new me, I will do this one! This challange is a great idea because it isn't only focusing on your weight loss but your non-scale victories as well. Good luck to all!

Unbanded can play? I guess I will have to do it, then - but only if the gym has put in a scale... otherwise I can't track my weight! It's a new gym and they are still putting the place together.

:

(of course, I might KNOW if the gym had put in a scale if I had BEEN there in the last few weeks!! Gads - I need this challenge!)

<p>I'm in too! This will be the first challenge I have participated in. Since it's a new year & will start on my B-day, I can't think of a better time for me to start my participation. I like the 1 NSV & the longer challenge.</p>

1/3/06 - OOPS! I gained some weight over the holidays that just showed up this morning. What a great birthday present to myself! :) Okay so I'll have to work extra hard to get this 10 lbs back off again. So my official weigh in weight is 305 lbs. My goals are to at least lose 0.5 lb each week, & to limit my eating out to at least once a week. Good luck everyone!

I'm in, since I didn't quite meet my personal goal for the '05 challenge.

I agree-- 1 NSV per week-- till March 1.

I'm not sure how to do this, having never entered a challenge before, but the idea intrigues me. Last year - let's see- down 51 pounds since being banded in May 05, and I lost 19 pounds over the holidays, counting from Halloween through New Years. That's gotta be a first for me!

What do we do next? Set a goal? OK, how's this - 1.5 pounds a week for the next quarter. Hmm. :guess That's about 18 pounds or so by end of March. :P That would be well worth it!

Cheers, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! :banana

So official weigh in first day of the challenge: 211, goal for the end of March, to be at 190. That will be such a wonderful goal for my birthday on March 30th. I will also have met several personal goals, to weigh less than my husband, as well as be in onederland. I also have an NSV for the week already and that is having exercised between 45 and 60 mins everyday this past week.

1/03: 211

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
