THIN-N-FIT #17 APRIL 1 - 30

LV2BFUNY · 04-01-2005, 04:30 PM

Hi

I thought I would start this thread since our team is going through some turmoil right now.

This is a new month and I think we can turn this around. Is anyone out there ready to stick it out with me??

BIGGEST LOSER APRIL CHALLENGES

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here they are!!

SPECIAL CHALLENGES FOR APRIL:

The challenges for April were picked to help motivate us and remind us of how and why we are on this challenge. There are lots of opportunities to earn points, so this should make it an interesting month!

The first challenge is to go to the Century Club Forum and read the 100, 200, and 300 pound loser sticky threads. If you do this before the 15th of the month, give yourself 25 points!

Challenge Two: Try out a new type of exercise. A new exercise video, a new exercise class, a new type of equipment, a new sport, etc. You have to do it at least once a week for the month. If you want to try four new things, that's fine, just try something new each week. This is worth 50 points!

Challenge Number Three: Give yourself 25 points for rereading (or reading for the first time if you haven't read it yet!) the book (Atkin's, South Beach, Carb Addict's) associated with your WOE. Read the one that really goes into detail about this WOE and the science behind it and the rules for following it.

And as an ongoing challenge to promote participation, let's continue Kim's challenge from last month... give yourself one point for everyday that you post on your team's thread!

REGULAR CHALLENGES:

EXERCISE

Less than 500 minutes exercise/month = -100 points
501-599 minutes of exercise/month = 35 points (avg 17 min/day)
600-749 minutes of exercise/month = 40 points (avg 20 min/day)
750-999 minutes of exercise/month = 50 points (avg 25 min/day)
1000-1149 minutes of exercise/month = 65 points (avg 33 min/day)
1150-1249 minutes of exercise/month = 80 points (avg 38 min/day)
1250-1499 minutes of exercise/month = 95 points (avg 42 min/day)
1500+ minutes of exercise per month = 120 points (avg 50 min/day)

WEIGHT LOSS

Any weight GAIN = -5 points
1-4lbs lost per month = 4 points
5lbs lost per month = 5 points
6lbs lost per month = 6 points
7lbs lost per month = 7 points
8lbs lost per month = 8 points
9lbs lost per month = 9 points
10lbs lost per month = 10 points
11lbs lost per month = 11 points
12lbs lost per month = 12 points
13lbs lost per month = 13 points
14lbs lost per month = 14 points
15+lbs lost per month = 45 points

WATER consumption per month (in ounces)

1983 ounces or less = -100 points (avg less than 64 oz/day)
1984-3100 ounces = 35 points (avg 64-100 oz/day)
3101-4340 ounces = 85 points (avg 101-140 oz/day)
4341+ ounces = 150 points (avg 141oz+/day)

MEASUREMENTS INCHES LOST

HALF-Inches lost per month (total ONLY from waist and hips (same for both men and women)) You are encouraged to measure more body parts for your own records but just the waist and hips will count during this challenge:

Add 10 points for every HALF-inch you lose (measured monthly) add hips and waist together for a combined total. If you choose to measure every three months, you will have to be on an individual challenge – only. All team members are expected to measure and report their results on the last day of the month. (permanent challenge)

Deduct 20 points for every HALF-inch you gain from the prior month.

Further Additions and Deductions:

Deduct 1 point for every can of diet pop that is not made with the Splenda Sweetner or another Atkins-approved sweetner. Example, saccharine is not good. (Even if it doesn't stall you). (permanent challenge) (hint: drink Diet Rite)

Deduct 1 point for every 12oz. you drink that is not caffeine free. (permanent challenge)

Deduct 30 points for going over YOUR monthly carb intake goal at all! (permanent challenge)

Deduct 100 points for NOT reporting your stats on the 15th and last day of month. Email lagpmgdsls if that is not possible so other arrangements can be made. (permanent challenge)

Ok everyone, let's go out and make it a good month!!
