10 kgs in 6 weeks - Starting Mon 29th June - Mon 8th August 2009

[maria1969yellow]

Hi Everyone, I know that theres a few challenges going atm but thought I would bring back the 10kgs in 6 week Challenge for those that are interested...

I really love setting goals and rewards and that was one of my tools that kept me motivated losing the 30kgs or so that I did before falling off the wagon..

Well Im back and have a few goals and would love to motivate everyone that wants to come back on board...

I see we have a team challenge of over 35 and under 35 which maybe we can all join in also to make it even more challenging..

Okay check out the closed threads on the few we did a few months ago to see that there were a few contenders that did loose over 10kgs in 6 wks.
Anyhow I will check the official weigh ins every tuesday morning and ad update the stats for all of us...

To make it easy for all of us cut and paste the below and put in your weights of course...

Good luck fellow contenders and dont forget to set some goals and rewards along the way...Give me as much or as little information as you want to post..

My thoughts for the day

• Aim and shoot high in your goals, and stay focused.
• Never let others discourage you concerning your past. For the past is exactly that - " the past." Live every day one day at a time. And remember that we learn from each test that comes our way.

Look forward to losing 10kgs in 6 weeks or close to that. I hope you will to....

Yay!!! I love this challenge and it's just what I need to get me back into the swing of things.

Counting you in Rach. I haveto be honest I missed not doing this challenge and thought it was fair for others to have a go but like you its just what the doctor ordered for me.. Reporting back and setting rewards and goals..

Will do a update on tuesday morning with everones stats PLUS my own

Im planning to loose the 10gs in 6 weeks and am going to do everything in my power to get to refeed in this time also.. Just haveto think of some rewards now that will motivate me even more... I think I want to go somewhere like a health resort to relax for a couple of days..

Anyhow welcome on board...
Look forward to your stats!

Hi Maria
I'd luv to join this challenge. The dates you've mentioned.... did you mean 29 June to 8 August?
I just began Cohen's again after a 6 month break and really need to stay focused. I'm going to Darwin at the end of July for a week's holiday, so this will work in nicely.

What info do you need from me?

LyneeL Cut and paste this when you reply and each week to update stats and let us know how your going...

Official start date this monday for weigh ins but of course if your weigh in is for e.g on a sat or sun just do it earlier that is fine

Look forward to seeing you loose those kgs in 6 weeks

[maria1969yellow]

Good morning everyone, at this stage even though we havent many takers I am still going to keep this challenge going has the few of us who are about to commit can still lose it and be accountable to each other..

My stats.

Maria - Start Weight kg 81.7kg
Goals: Like to be at the stage in this 6 weeks to have started refeed if I feel ready. My goal is 71kgs. My other goal is to take it one day at a time and deal with accepting that I have to use the tools that I am learning and have learnt with Cohens and put them into practise...
Rewards: A weekend away and a health resort and a proper day of pampering and shopping at Chadstone.

Have a great week everyone, never too late to start the challenge fellow contenders.

Maria.

Week 5.
Week 6.
Total loss:
Goals: Stick to the programme 100%!! I've got 19.8kgs to go and it would be great to lose another 10kg in 6 weeks because i'll just be in the 60's which isn't far off from my goal weight. I want to look at wedding dress's during the 6 weeks and be able to find the dress or potential dresses that are going to look gorgeous in my new looking body and being that 10kg lighter will just make finding that dress easier because i can have a glimpse of what i am going to look like on my special day.

Rewards: Order my wedding dress in a size that i am going to be comfortable with because i don't want too many alterations.

Hi Girls,

Been out of town and just stumbled upon your challenge. I would LOVE to join in. I'm in the US so Monday morning weigh in is about 16 hours from now.

I will cut and paste the info needed when I weigh in tomorrow.

Thanks for bringing this challenge back. I think it is just what I need to get back on track after being basically off plan for 5 days while in Las Vegas.

Hi Maria,

I saw you'd changed the date - unfortunately, the Title of the thread remained as July - thus you'll see all of above replies showing that date.

But, I've now edited the thread title - so all subsequent replies will be showing the proper date from now on.....

Good to see you getting in the swing again - you go girl

Im trying to stay true to myself and this challenge and each other here is definately a tool that has helped me shed what I have.. For some its not as emotional journey but feel free to ask us along this challenge for any motivation you may need... Im very big for rewards and goals so come on lets list them and I will continue to update them so that way when we are all checking in we are accountable..
