Default February weight loss

February Weight Loss Challenge


February 2015 Weight Loss Adventure with Prize!!
On February 1st, weigh yourself and write it down. DO NOT send it to me. On February 28th, weigh yourself again and PM me your loss. This is weight lost not percentage lost. I will announce the winner on March 3rd.

The prize is a themed FQ from each member. Once a winner is declared, I will contact the winner and FQ's will be mailed by the 6th.

Private message (PM) me for the mailing address. All FQ's should be mailed by the 15th of the month. You need to check in on the thread at least once a week to be eligible for the winning "skinny quarters aka FQ's" and to be declared the "biggest loser" for the month.

You cannot win 2 months in a row.

Chit Chat is allowed, as wells as WAYWO (what are you working on). Please stay positive and uplifting as possible to keeps us all on track. Share tips, recipes, encouraging words and {{{HUGS}}}
IN February is the month of love. So I think it is the month we should learn to love ourselves more and remember to think of our own health.We are all so used to doing for others.So lets see how we can play with some your choice of FQ's. Please send quality fabric that you would want to receive in return. As always if you don't have the theme, send what you have. If you don't have a FQ, then send a linear 1/4 yard. If you have signed up to be in the running for the prize, please send your FQ to the hostess by the 15th of the month. As the winner has worked hard for her prize.

Eat healthy, exercise, make wise choices and lose weight but most of all have fun!!!

Sign up deadline to be a part of the PRIZE adventure February 4th at 9 pm cst. You are encourage to contribute to the thread even if you are not in for the prize.

To let me know you are participating just post on the thread and then send a PM for the mailing address.

Here I am again. Thank you Ms. Pat for being our hostess on this adventure.

I don't think my weight has changed. I love to walk - my favorite stress reliever. Now that has to change. How I wish I had an elliptical. LOVE that machine.

Good luck to everyone.

Gonna try again. Heading out on a little vacation the end of April and that is my goal date, but February is the loss month. Would like to be a little thinner than my cousin - ha ha! At 76, how much can I lose???????? I will start in again on my indoor walking and I love salads . So I will be sending in my fat quarters soon and will pm my address!!! Good luck to all of you, but better luck to me?????? I have three months to lose about 30 lbs and I just got through watching Biggest Loser. I am so glad that guy won! I was rooting for him most of the show. That show really gives a person impetus, but I don't do anything super-strenuous! Just walk! Good luck!!!! Edie
