May weight loss
 
May Weight Loss
May 2014 Weight Loss Adventure with Prize!!
On May 1st, weigh yourself and write it down. DO NOT send it to me. On May 31st, weigh yourself again and PM your loss. This is weight lost not percentage lost. I will announce the winner on June 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 May we hope the weather is finally warm and the spring flowers explode with lots of color. So lets see how we can play with some flowered 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!!!

I will post the FQ themes for 3 months at a time to save on postage if you would like. We already did April. May is flowers and June is blue. Good luck to everyone. When you send your FQ make sure you include your board name in the pkg.

I'm in again, too, and sent my FQ when I sent the April FQ. Thanks, Pat!

While working at a medical center some of the staff got together for a weight loss contest. What we found after the first contest is that people with a large amount of weight to lose could lose much more quickly than those with smaller amounts. The doctor had us change to percentages.

Just a thought.

PS: Any weight loss is a good weight loss!

I'm in again! I am really going to try to get back on my walking routine this month.

I'm working on my weight, but not gathering any fabric (since 2001!)
May I post and read along?

Last months thread lead me to FitnessPal, where I'm logging my foods. I like it.
