10 pound race!!!
 
Kinda stole the idea from the format in the "lose 5 challenge" (still love you guys!). I wanted to make something just a step harder than losing 5 pounds since our weight fluctuates on a daily basis. Sometimes 5 pounds can come and go over a few days, 10 pounds is more of a permanent thing!


So here it goes! Post your starting weight ---> 10 pound lighter weight - and then your current weight in parenthesis! Use the format below to keep things easy for everyone to read! As you lose the weight, copy and paste the list over and edit your numbers! Keep it in "race" format with the winner at the top of the list and so on! Join in anytime!!!!! Just copy the race list and add your stats! :D


Lets see who can get to ten first!


:cheer:READY--------SET--------GO!!:cheer:

Come on guys!!!! Its not as bad as it looks! :D Im here to help motivate everyone and get us through this together!

Akasha Wed, Aug-24-05 21:17

I'll join you. I only plan on weighing myself once in a great while (like once a month or so), so I hope that is okay. My starting weight is 142.

EciGirl19z Wed, Aug-24-05 21:22

Sounds good to me! Whatever you feel comfortable with :D

Sounds like a motivator!
 





Hi! count me in. I'm new at this. Actually i dont even start atkins until tommorow. So this sounds like a great idea and a motivator. I am trying to lose weight for powerlifting. I am a senior in high school and I need to lose weight to be in a particular weight class. But in order to gain muscle at the same time i needed a high protein diet. This is why atkins is best for me. well good luck!

truffle00 Mon, Aug-29-05 01:28

I'd really like to join in this challenge, since I'm pretty much 20 pounds away from my major milestone (200 pounds). Given that I have a lot more to lose and will probably lose twice as fast as most of you, mind if I join in with a 20 pound requirement?

EciGirl19z Mon, Aug-29-05 16:05

tardon! :lol: looking VERY familiar! Im hiding in here so I dont have to post a fat pic!!!!!

Truffle, you are more than welcome to join!! How it works is like this...we all start with a goal of 10 to lose, when someone wins, we all start over where the race ended. So its kind of like a nonstop race, but people are just winning different legs of it :D Some people only have 10 to lose, but most have more! Im here for 20 as well, so you can stay as long as you would like :D

Ill add you to the stats!

tardon Thu, Sep-01-05 23:30

Hi fellow 10lbers..just checking, do we post our little losses as they happen until we get to 10lbs...whiich could by the way time a while for me. Sportygirl is kicking some serious butt. Can we perhaps sabotage her with temptation :q: Sorry wrong challenge..lots of sabotage going on at the 2lb a week thread.
I wish you guys lived in kilos. 600 gms looks more substantial.... :lol:

Akasha Fri, Sep-02-05 06:02

Hi guys! I still have stayed away from the scale, so no progress to report yet. TOM is here, and I feel like I gained about ten pounds overnight. Haha, well, if I did, I hope it is just water weight.

EciGirl19z Sat, Sep-03-05 20:58

Hey tardon and akasha! :) Tardon, post everything you lose!! You lose .25 then change your stats!!! LOL And yes 600gms does look WAY better!

Akasha, I know what you mean about tom, I feel like the goodyear blimp when he comes to visit. I HATE him with a passion! :lol:

Im staying off the scale until monday, thats my weigh in day.

Tomokato Sun, Sep-04-05 09:11

Welcome Tomokato and Fitz, there's always room for more.

Tomorrow is my official weigh in day, so really hoping to see a little progress. Especially since I know TOM will be visiting real soon, and I think we all feel the same about that visitor.

Hope everyone has a great evening.

Jenny

EciGirl19z Mon, Sep-05-05 03:15

Tomokato, dont feel weird! We are all here for the same reason! Glad to have you aboard ship!

And thanks Akasha for the curse! Tom came a knocking yesterday! :lol: So Im not attempting the scale till he takes a hike!

Good luck guys!

skylee Mon, Sep-05-05 04:42

I am excited to report I am down 3lbs. this morning. I can actually see making it to the 170's as a reality now. That will be an outstanding day for since the lowest weight I can actually remember being is 179, and that was almost 2years ago. I am gonna work extra hard this week to try and make it there.
