New Year, New You Exercise Challenge
Count me in too!
Kris "Amberle3" wrote in message ... Since I haven't heard from Anna I've decided to go ahead and put together the next exercise challenge. It's a wee bit longer than the usual - this is a 13week challenge - because I wanted it to run right through the current year and end in the next one. Starting weights will be the weight the week of September 29-October 5. I'll need starting weights and goal weights for anyone wanting to participate. I'll have a website up later today and will post again with the URL. I'm going to institute some of the same rules that Anna had for the SWWC, namely: 1. Goal weights should assume the recommended, average loss of 1-2 lbs per week, although they can be a less if you're a slow loser, or a little more if you're a fast loser. I don't want anyone killing themselves for a little challenge! 2. People on maintenance will be identified by an "M" in one column, so that we know they aren't trying to lose a lot of weight. People who have had to drop out will also be noted. I picked New Year, New You (NY,NY) because everyone always focuses on the new year as a time time START working on their "new you". Well we here at ASDW know that it's an ongoing journey. So instead of waiting until January 1 to make a resolution about weight loss, why not look ahead and say HEY! I'm going to be a heathier, happier individual FOR the new year, not just IN the new year. And why is it that the media teaches us to start preparing for the swim suit season months ahead of time, and then tells us that it's okay to "let go" at holiday parties and not worry about weight loss until January 1? We know that we can have our party fun and lose weight at the same time. So let's show 'em how it's done! Okay, enough rambling.

New Year, New You Exercise Challenge
Sign me up Amberle! Even though I am on maintenance, I think these challenges are
wonderful in keeping me focused and accountable ... probably will be more than necessary with the holidays quickly approaching. Let's throw 133 in as my current weight (Is actually 133.3 but I'm going to move to a different method of recording weight). My personal ww goal was 140, but I think I'd like to continue with 135 as my challenge goal (I use that as a danger zone). Hope that hasn't confused the heck out of you.
