June 2004 challenge

[Suzanne B]

I am creating this challenge to get myself closer to my 10% goal. I had set a personal date of June 8th (Tues, my WI day) to reach my 10%, 22.4 pounds. I had a gain last week and now I'm not sure if I can reach my 10% by the date I picked but I'm going to try.

This challenge will run May 2nd until June 12th which is 6 weeks.

Week 1~~May 2-8
Week 2~~May 9-15
Week 3~~May 16-22
Week 4~~May 23-29
Week 5~~May 30-June 5
Week 6~~June 6-12


Anyone want to join me?

[Suzanne B]

I'm going to pledge 8-12 pounds. That will put me close to or at my 10% I weigh in on Tuesdays.

Beginning weight (April 27th) 213.6

Week 1~~May 4...Lost 3.8 (I'm not in the teens anymore!! :D )
Week 2~~May 11...Gained 3.2 (TOM) :mad: (back in the teens)...total -.6
Week 3~~May 18...lost 3.0...total -3.6
Week 4~~May 25...lost 1.4...total -5
Week 5~~June 1...gained .4 (had to WI at home, scales read 1/2 pounds)...total -4.6

I am game! I have lost 11 lbs so far. I started in February. The good thing is that I've go from a size 20 to a size 16-18. I just really need to be remotivated. I pledge to lose at least 5 lbs by June 12th. I am so excited.

[shannon35]

Oooooh! Count me in! I need a challenge to get my butt in gear.

I am hoping to reach goal by my 24th birthday (9 1/2 weeks! :eek: ) so I think I'll pledge 8-10 pounds. If I put down a range, it's easier for me to deal with!

May 29th
I really don't think I am going to make my June goal...I have really been having a tough time lately. Not sure why, but I am trying to shake things up and jumpstart my losses!

Challenge SW-150
Challenge GW-142-140

Week 1~May 2-8 -1.5
Week 2~May 9-15 +.5
Week 3~May 16-22 -0
Week 4~May 23-29 -0 (TOM)
