Default 100% christmas challenge 21/12/2009 - 03/01/2010

The lovely Belnatjas had the brilliant idea to have a special Christmas challenge to provide some extra motivation over the holidays.

So here is the 100% Cohens Challenge - special Christmas edition! It will be running from Monday 21 December until Sunday 3 January.

Instead of the normal dancing mangoes, if you complete this challenge, you put the following in your signature:

100% Cohens Christmas

So come one, come all and be a part of the Cohens Christmas challenge!

Ohhh, I would love to join this! It sounds like fun, plus who wouldn't want that cool signature addition!!!!

But, I don't think I can, seeing as I plan to eat lobster and weigh it already cooked... which is a deviation.

Bummer... but I guess I will be DF for everything else and that is an achievement in itself.

Good Luck everyone!!!

Welcome Ladybird, and congrats on your achievements so far.
I am in my 4th week, and I am very determined to remain deviation free, so I am glad we have this added incentive.

So happy that there is so much interest for the Christmas challenge!!! Be sure to spread the word, the more the merrier!!

Alright so the list so far:

Gremlin
Cobie_Lee
Determined28
Belnatjas
Ladybird!
Lil_doll
Corbyns mum

I almost said 'let's get those mangoes dancing', but that's not quite right, is it? Hmmm.. Oooh! Of course: Let's spread the Cohens Christmas Cheer!

Hi Mette!

I have changed my mind re: Christmas day... so I will be 100% DF!

Can I still be in the Christmas challenge?!

xMissy


P.S- I actually don't think that adorable ticker addition will fit on my ticker!! I am already having issues with the limitation on characters (incl. mark up!)... hehe, but anyway, 100% Cohens Christmas for me!

Good luck to all on the Cohen's Christmas Challenge. I am off to Lismore NSW for Christmas and I may only have access to a dodgy dial-up connection for the majority of the time. So I may be AWOL on the forum until I return to BrisVegas on the 3rd Jan 2010.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.
Looking forward to hearing about your Christmas stories when I return

Survived Christmas Day, but there is still soooo much food surrounding me ... Boxing Day picnics etc etc.
*Sigh*, and I am finding the 5 hour time frame a pain in the bum too ... Cohen's is SOOOOOO much easier at home in my own routine.

But enough on my "woe is me" spiel ... on the up side I have been spending time with family and enjoying this beautiful part of the world .... Lismore/ Ballina

Going great guns guys, I'm so proud of you!!

Sorry I haven't been present the past few days, I've been working horrid 12 hour shifts. Makes it nice and easy in terms of avoiding Christmas temptation though

Lil_doll and Corbyns mum, you are on the list!

Oh boy thank god its all over. I managed to stay DF but it was hard. Harder than what I thought it would be. So hard that I had to get on here last night and keep away from it all. Can you believe it was the cashews that were calling me?! LOL

Now the next stage, new years. Its a non event for me so I should be right. I keep chanting 8 kgs to refeed to keep me on track. I am ready for this journey to be over.

Hope everyone had a great xmas!

Great to hear everyone is still DF, especially you Bel YOU ROCK, well you all do!
