Clean Eating Challenge

Ok, there seems to be a mysterious condition going around that is causing sabotage to our eating. I know I'm not alone here when I admit that my eating this past little while leaves a lot to be desired, causing slight weight gain after such hard work to lose it. I also know, that I am the same person who was practically flawless in my eating for like almost 90 days straight, so I know I can get ahold of this - who's with me?? There is no deadline for sign-ups, anyone can join at any time!! All you have to do is check in once a week (at least) & let us know how you're doing. If/when you "cheat", simply let us know & I will restart your start date. A cheat is defined as whatever a cheat would mean to you personally, whether it be going over your calories, bingeing, not eating enough, too many treats, etc. We all know when we've cheated, so just be honest with yourself Let's be honest with each other & keep each other eating clean k? The PRIZE to the winner? Well that's easy - weight loss!!!!!!!!! (or maintenance for those at that stage!) Let's do this! Dee ********************************************** Here's the list of all signed up & the new rules: (let me know if I missed you) If you lose your mind & cheat, just let me know. Then you can re-start from the next day. I'll simply unbold your name, along with updating your new start date. After being clean for a week after a re-start, I'll re-bold your name. So you always have a chance to feel like you are succeeding. Also, if you just don't feel like you want to partake in the challenge anymore, can you let me know so I can remove your name from the list? Thanks!! Anyone not checking in for one week (December 25 - December 31) will be removed from the challenge. Good luck all! People's names in bold** have been going the longest or have not restarted for at least a week - way to go!!!!!!!! cerhiunnhn - hiatus Jan 30 chanb73 - Dec 10 - 3rd Place, Congrats!!!!! deejlb - Oct 27 - 1st Place, Congrats!!!!! emmylou - Dec 17 ewwxroflzz - Dec 9 - 2nd Place, Congrats!!!!! healthnut24 - Dec 15 jennlett - Dec 14 madronam - Dec 15 nancy1967 - hiatus s57chevy - Dec 17 shadowmystika - Dec 20 skinnyogi - Dec 18

18lifetogo, I like your idea of the post-it notes! I think that's a good motivational technique. I think little reminders are good. They get my mind back in the game, especially when it shuts off when sweets are near! I wish you the best!

I would definetely like to be a part of this challenge. I began my weight loss efforts approximately 2 years ago once I started nearing 180 lbs. Fair to say I have not been very successfull in my attempts. Just a month ago I had lost 10 lbs. and was weighing in at 169. I got on the scale Monday night after watching Big Medicine on TLC and realized that my current weight is 190.5 lbs. I knew that I had gained weight, but did not imagine I had gained over 20 lbs. I think a challenge like this would be very helpful to me.

barnespa - welcome!!! Please check in at least once a week, let me know if you ever need a "restart" and if you no longer want to be in the challenge, let me know too, so I can remove you. Good luck to you. I, as I'm sure many others can relate to your quick story above. Thanks for sharing. You can get back to 160s & below, & it won't take long girl!! I like that show too, and shows like it. they're the type of shows that make you think about what you're doing.

add me to the list! (starting tomorrow) clean eating, to me, means whole grains, fruits and veggies, lean protein, no added sugar. i love challenges, competitions... :) and i promise to not lie if i screw up. ~Julia
#895	lauramaehey	Jul 13 2007 04:04
Well I did great on my first day! ! ! I havn't weighed in since my second day on here because I don't have a scale I'm happy with lol (tends to weigh about 12 lbs heavy!!!...talk about a slap in the face) Hopefully tomorrow when I do finally weigh in it will be rewarding (at least 1/2 lb) I've been dieting for almost a week lol Its a long time when you're really use to not worrying about what you eat! good luck all! -Laura Mae

Hello fellow clean-eaters! I need help for tomorrow. We are going to an evening wedding and dinner, which entails sitting for hours and hours at a dinner table, with course after stomach-bursting course, bottle after inebriating wine bottle. 4000 calories are easily consumed at one sitting (including pre-dinner drinks and appetizers). PLEASE: suggestions for clean eating in this circumstance??? I've considered exercising ALL DAY before we set off for wedding. Eating naught but BROTH in the day. And then FASTING the next day. All three of these ideas leave me cold. I may be reporting in on Monday "NOT CLEAN" :( Thanks guys, have a great weekend and ... keep it clean! ciao for now, Nancy

I'd join but what i consider clean eating is way to broad for most people that it really would be like cheating. (I pretty much hit for an average of 1440 kcal a day but if i go way over once in a while like 2500 or something or eat junk food the whole day i don't feel at all bad about it cause I'm still maintinaing a steady weight loss as long as most days I have a 800-200 kcal defecit. i really can't imagine what going "off of the weight loss wagon" would look like for me- i geuss it would probably be a week long binge stravaganza with tons of doughnuts...drool)
