Mothers Day mini-challenge
 
well.. here we go.. here is the opening for our newest mini challenge...

for now I guess we will again start with TEAM A: and TEAM B: (I think names for these next 2 challenges are going to be hard to come up with.. but I have no imagination!!)

If you are just joining us for this new mini challenge... place your name in the next team opened, post your starting weight first, then your mini goal weight, the next number is the difference between the two numbers, and the last number will be the amount you have lost during this mini-challenge. The last number will be the only number that 'should' change during each entire mini-challenge (unless a mini-goal weight goal is changed!). Each time you post.. copy the entire team A and team B list and post to your thread, changing your stats as needed.

good luck to everyone... the last mini-challenge (Easter) was a great one.. we had 4 challengers meet (and exceed) goal!!!. soooo many we're very close to making goal.. and everyone lost.. we had no gains at the end of the challenge.

TEAM A:
dianna9234 256, 251, 5, 0

TEAM B:

now .. I guess we start thinking about names.. we usually have 2 or 3 guys on the team.. so naming teams something like 'the mama's' wouldn't work.. hmm.. told you.. I have NO imagination!!>.

thanks to all my fellow mini-challengers!!

ps I am up in weight this morning.. man I was bad over the week-end.. and am gonna have to do some strict Induction for a week or so...

Annie1gi Mon, Apr-17-06 09:07

I have been thinking about names as well this morning, and haven't come up with anything, how about shrinking violets, fluffy mamas would work, but as Dianna pointed out we sometimes have men on our teams....somebody out there must be more creative than we are?? Anyone??

Aw, I know another 10 lb goal, didn't make it the first or the second time, but heck maybe the third time will be a charm????

Good luck to all!!
Annie :D

dianna9234 Mon, Apr-17-06 09:10

I am going to try for 15 lbs this time. For new names, if the guys don't care, Mother's Vanishing Rolls, and Mama's Without Flab. For the father's day challenge we will have the same issue, but I don't mind being on a team then with a name targeted towards guys.

I'll give it a go, as a stepping stone on my way to 25 lbs down by the start of summer. I'm tweaking my goal this time - I lost 4 lbs during the last challenge, so this time I'll aim for 7. It's a lucky number for me, so who knows? :lol:

So, how about mother-like things for our team names?

TEAM (A)re you going out of the house dressed like that?
and
TEAM (B)ecause I said so, that's why...

I am going after the 10 pound loss again. I am not letting my not getting to goal last time deter me. I'll do it this time!

As for names...how about Mother Hen and Mother Goose?

GypsyAngel Mon, Apr-17-06 22:09

OK... let's give this another shot! I like all the name suggestions. I think my favorites might be Southbel's picks. The Hens and Geese. :lol:

Mother's Day is May 14th. That's 4 weeks from Easter. I'll try for another 10 lbs. Haven't reached the previous 10's. Maybe this time! LOL!

I also got a new scale so my numbers have changed. The new one weighs me heavier dammit. LOL! But I know it's only a number. I've still lost 46 lbs!

I love it, that is great!

I am in, I guess I ate a lot yesterday at Easter Dinner, because when I woke up this morning I was 382, yikes! I am putting 20 lbs for my goal. I think I will lose the first 5 or so pretty quick, a lot is water I think.

I had a shock on the scale. Up a pound, dang it. I wonder if I ate too much salty stuff (lots of ham)? I can 't even blame TOM, which I usually do....Anyway, thought I'd better own up to it....

Plus, I tried our names on for size. I think they are unisex and awesome (that's for the guys!) Anyone is free to change them, but I was just getting tired of A and B and wanted to see something jazzier!

GO GEESE! :lol:

dianna9234 Tue, Apr-18-06 08:13

I don't know if I would like to be a mother hen (or mother goose) if I was a guy.. I think the names are very cute.. but if our guys rejoin this new mini-challenge.. I think we should give them the option of a change....
btw.. the other names were cute too!!.. sounds just like a mother.. (are you going out of the house like that?..),, i was chuckling.

Good luck everybody!!
