ANSWERS

Way to go everyone! Here are my answers.


I am IN for the next month.


MOM: I have paid for last month. Let me know when the due date is for this next month and the amount I owe and I will get it sent. I will let you know if I made my goal of 8 pounds on Saturday. As of current I have, but need to weigh in on Saturday to make sure I have maintained the weight loss.

MICHELLE: I really liked the rules over all. However, it would be nice to maybe have a few more 5 or 10 pointers so the overall points can be a bit closer and more competitive. A 30 point loss in one blow almost puts you out of the race entirely (unless others oops along the way too, which I guess is the hope.) We could have points for posting more frequently. Rules about posting need to be designated from the beginning, I do like the incentives we created this past month. Everyone really needs to post once a week so whether we use the ones currently posted or create new ones I don't care, but we do need motivation to post. At least some of us did. EVERYONES plan MUST BE POSTED and receive BIG points for doing so by a certain day. Plans should maybe reviewed by someone to make sure it is challenging yet doable. I think we could cut back on the water to 6 cups (that's what Weight Watcher recommends), but water isn't an issue for me so I am good with whatever. I think we should add a new good habit this month - along with maintaining the good habit we created last month or if the old good habit wasn't realistic last month tweeking it a bit but still adding another good habit since this is all about a HEALTHIER HAPPIER WAY TO LIVE. Change doesn't happen unless we create the habits (good or bad).

Good Luck and let me know what the new rules are.

Chris
