Valentine's Challenge

[Sherry73 94]

Since this will be my first challenge I am not sure what to set a goal weight at. I lost over 30 lbs the first three weeks and then went into a three week stall. In the last two weeks since I have started losing again I have lost 13 lbs. Anyone have any idea of what kind of goal I should set? Very excited to do the challenge.

I'd love to join. I'm only 2 weeks out so my goal will be a bit of a guess.

Thanks!

I'd like to join too. I've never done a challenge before. Sounds like a great opportunity to hit the ground running in 2014 :-)

Hello Bea, I have my surgery Tuesday 12/31 but I would LOVE to participate, do you think that this is realistic for me?

So cool to see so many new folks joining us this time. Here are a couple of notes, mostly about stuff we've learned over time.

1. Yes...even if you are pre-surgery or recently sleeved, by all means, join in on the fun.
2. There are not any fancy rules here, so there's not a lot you can do wrong in this group.
3. While the main activity here is reporting in weekly, we also tend to do a bit of bragging, complaining, teasing, etc. so feel free to join in on this part of the fun as well.
4. If you're not sure about the goal setting part, don't worry. It's no big deal. We've been known to modify goals mid-stream although it's usually because we become better at estimating over time. Take a shot at a goal and then don't worry about it...just watch the weight fall off as the challenge progresses...that's definitely the most fun!
5. Post questions here for the group to answer and I'm guessing someone will jump in with good advice. If they don't, simply ask again...we won't mind.
6. This is a GROUP activity and we are all equal members. I keep the stats, but often don't interact a lot (busy lifestyle and all that). There are some VERY experienced and knowledgeable people here, so again, feel free to ask questions to the group in general. Lots of knowledge here...it's definitely helped me along!

Finally, and most important...HAVE FUN with this. Meeting some new goals by Valentine's Day is really going to be nice, and I can't wait for next week so we can really get going! (Now if I could just get rid of those LAST THREE POUNDS before New Year's day!!!)
