This is a continuation of the weight loss challenge.

I put the date first so it would be easier to "search".

On May 1 weigh yourself and write it down. Do NOT send it to me. On May 31 weigh yourself again and PM me with your loss. This is weight lost not % lost. I will announce the winner June 1.

You can not win 2 months in a row.

Chit chat is allowed, as well as WAYWO, (what are we working on). Please stay positive and uplifting as that is what keeps us on track. Come to this thread for tips, recipes, encouragement and {{{{HUGS}}}}}}

The prize is a themed FQ. At the end of the month the people who didn't lose as much weight will contact the BIGGEST loser/winner for their information and sent them the themed FQ.

May is spring and spring is pastels. This month's theme is PASTELS. As always if you can not send the theme fabric please send what you have. If you don't have an FQ, send a linear 1/4 yard.

Eat healthy, exercise, try and lose weight but most of all have fun!!!!!!!!!!!

Sign up deadline to be included in the Prize Venture is May 3 at 9 a.m. CST. You can always contribute to the thread, but it is only fair to have a cutoff for those trying to win.

Mem, I just wanted to say I've been watching your ticker and I'm so proud of you. I know how hard weight loss can be. Keep up the good fight!

thank you! C'mon and join us. You can have a good time and lose weight.

I'm in but this will be my first time to participate. Where do we go to notify you before the 3rd and to follow the posts on the thread. Do we bookmark this and go back to it? I check new topics every day and have never come across one for the previous months challenges as they progress (does that make sense?). Sorry for all of the questions for what is probably a very simple process.

You've got the process down exactly!

1. PM me that you are participating (before the deadline)

2. Bookmark the thread

3. Participate in the conversation and hints

4. Send me your loss at the end of the month

5. Await the results on the last day of the month

6. Send (or keep) the FQ

That's all there is to it! Friendship, Fellowship, and Frolic.

Although I have noticed it several times, this is the first time I have understood the meaning of your weight ticker. I think it is wonderful that you have achieved a 42 lb weight loss. You go girl! And, keep up the good work.
