Sure, I will be a long term challenger. Let me know what the challenge is. I haven't really thought about how much I am going to lose in by summer. What were you thinking??

Sounds like fun! Are you talking about June 21? Any specifics yet?

Woosh Fairy, I love you!

Hi, I was thinking somewhere between 16 and 18 lbs by June 21 for myself. What do you guys think? When do you guys want to start this one? There are so many other challenges on right now. Would appreciate input.
Debbie

Hi again, I was thinking maybe we could start the 21 of this month. Just an idea. Let me know what you think.
Debbie

Hi Debbie,

I am also in the St. Patrick's Day challenge with you. You can count me in on this challenge. I would like to reach my goal weight by summer. That means 130. I will be back on the 21st.

See you soon.

I am thinking of joining this long term challenge - I could say drop another 20 lbs in that time if we start on the 21 of this month and go till the 21 of june that gives us 17 weeks, 4 months plus one week.
It helps me to be on track with my food plan if I get into one of these....kind of making me responsible for what I am doing with my food.
let me know if we run with this.

Hi Carolyn in Texas, I like the idea of challenges to.I need some kind of accountability. And it's great to have the support and input of others.
Debbie

Hi to all you Low Carb fans, I see there are some takers out there for this challenge. Im so glad. I would like to start this challenge on Febuary 21 and go until June 21. That gives us 4 months and one week. (If my math is correct). On the 21st everyone can post there start weight, and challenge weight goal. Then I will make a general post on this challenge later that night with everyones stats to make sure they are correct. Anyone wanting to join us is most welcome anytime. I usually dont get to the computer until evening after the kids are in bed, (Im sure some of you can relate) and we will go from there. Just post your weigh ins when ever you want. Sound like a game plan???????? Im excitied!!
Heres a question for you guys: When our challenge kicks off, should I start a fresh topic with a better name for our challenge or just stay on this one?
Got any questions my email is debfromreno@charter.net

Hi!
I am new to this, but would like to get in on the challenge. I have done well with Induction and week 3, but need to really do well for the long haul. I hope to lose more than 20 lbs by June 21, and will be grateful to lose the 20! I have lost 25 lbs the first 3 weeks on Atkins, but know it will slow down now. I think your challenge is just the thing to keep me on track.

Slateless, Glad to have you on board. Just post your start weight, and challenge weigh goal on the 21st of this month and we will get this rolling. People usally post when ever they get a minute. I usually weigh myself weekly but everyone does diffrent. Sounds like you have done well so far, lets keep the streak going. Im looking forward to this challenge!!!!!!!
Your Host Debbie

Wow Slatelee, Congrats on the 25lbs. You are doing real well.
