***July***Weight Loss Challenge--Sign Ups Always Welcome!

Welcome to the **July** Challenge!

If you’ve participated before, welcome back for another month!  To all those who have not done this challenge (or any other) welcome aboard newbies!

The challenge is pretty easy & does NOT require a long term commitment.  You pick a goal weight, and post your progress each week.  You are NOT in competition with the other challengers—in fact, you are encouraged to cheer each other on.  This is about having a reason to stay motivated throughout the month’s weight loss journey and having a place to post your progress to help you stay on track--some "extra" accountability for your actions because you know you aren't the only one who will "see" the results.

We'll have 4 weekly weigh-ins in July.  I will not put weight data on the spread sheet until you report your weight info for the first weigh in.  Our weekly weigh-in dates are July 3, 10, 17, and 24 with a final weigh in on July 31, 2009.

Weigh-in days are on a Friday...I did this because we started late for July and because some people do not prefer weighing-in on weekends. I personally could care less, I'll weigh on any day of the week; but, it's nice to switch it up every now and again.  

I will normally post results by Tuesday—I will NOT email you to remind you to post.

So! Sign up--fill out the form below and post it EVERY Friday with your new weights.

 DO NOT EDIT YOUR ORIGINAL POST because I won’t notice.
Thanks :]

Ok, some notes here:  I am volunteering to host the July challenge.  I'm letting you all know now that I may not be able to keep the tally up-to-date, but I'll try.  I have EMT school three nights a week and two more classes in addition; so, please forgive me if I'm not the swiftest with the updates.  

Everyone give July your best shot!  Let's do this!!
