Next challenge timeframe question?????

SO, when Labor Day gets here we will start a new challenge round... Do we want a short timeframe so as to get 2 more challenge rounds in before New Years OR do we want ONE LONG round that starts at Labor Day with the end being New Years? We could do a Halloween round ending at Halloween and then a holiday round ending at New Years. YOU GUYS TELL ME WHAT YOU PREFER!! Lea

Hi Lea, I guess I get to be first! I'm voting for two rounds. There are 8 weeks between 9/3 and 10/29 and then 9 between 10/29 and 12/31. So my goals are 10 and 10 lbs. unless I dump a couple in the next two weeks!!! I think the structure of school will help with the structure of my eating!!! Karen

Hi Lea, Yes, yes, I vote for Halloween and New Year's. I love the challanges, and I think succeeding at Halloween will encourage me through the holidays. Thanks again Lea for all your work with the challanges, they are a huge part of my success. I really look forward to the weekly roll calls. I think it really keeps me in line, especially now that I can eat more (quantity and variety). Sandy

I vote for Halloween and Dec 31st. Then start the new year out with a new total to end out the 2007- 2008 school year out with. I like short goals. They seem easier to do! Karen

I would like to see 2 rounds with ending dates of Halloween and December 31st. Then we can start off the new year with a clean slate.

I vote for the two rounds! Cira

From the responses here and the private responses I've gotten, I would say that we will be doing two separate rounds... Just works best for everyone who's taken time to comment so far. So, start thinking about your Halloween goal weight!! Labor Day is just around the corner! We've only got about 2 1/2 more weeks! Lea

I vote for 2 shorter rounds! It's easier to see the finish line. lol

WooHoo! It looks like we are going for two! Ok, Lea, I can't let you catch me so I've got to kick it in gear and meet these goals. My Halloween goal is 205 and my New Years goal is 195. Onederland in 2008.

Hi Lea, I am voting for two as well. Maybe one until Thanksgiving and the other until New Years! I need these to help keep me motivtated and on track. Thanks, Judy R
