Most importantly though is the way I feel about myself. I have made so many positive changes in my life in the last 6 weeks including, my appointment to get my braces on in 2 weeks!

The 6 week challenge was wonderful for me! No, I didn't lose any pounds, but I can tell I'm firming up in areas and developing some great muscle tone. Most importantly, I'm in the habit of exercising AT LEAST 4 days/week, usually more, and have encouraged others to start as well. Two of my co-workers and I are starting our own challenge today to walk on the treadmills at the Student Rec Center for 30 minutes of our lunch hour. DH started walking/running with me a couple of weeks ago, too, and is doing great on his exercise program. So, the effects of the 6-week challenge on myself and others was terrific! Thanks for the support and encouragment that everyone on the thread gave!

Binny - I'm sorry I couldn't check in more frequently but I know this challenge helped me reach my goals!

I wanted to reach my second 10% weight loss goal. I had 7.5 pounds to lose. Not only did I reach that 10% goal but I surpassed it by another 7 pounds and have a beautiful 60 pound clippie to show for it!

I wasn't as successful in keeping away from the sugar free ice cream but I have given up the Pierre's chocolate with the sugar free peanut butter cups.

My third goal was to be more okay (mentally/emotionally) with my weight loss and I have to say that I am definitely working on being successful at this and learning to accept compliments without making an excuse or saying something negative behind it.

Thanks so much Binny for providing this thread and helping me to feel accountable and to be successful!

I think I did pretty well. I wanted to do better getting all my water in each day. I have gotten much better at that. I wanted to increase my exercise to four times a week and I'm doing well with that. I decided to change my eating plan a bit and have been trying to work the kinks out of it, but I think I have got it figured out now. I wanted to lose 5 pounds, but I only lost 1.5. But I think that's because I had to get my plan straightened out. Overall I am very happy with myself!
