Expert  997    Littleton, CO |  Subject: CO 10-lb challengeThere are several of us who need to lose our "summer weight" and shed 10 lbs. We thought it'd be fun to have a Colorado challenge to keep us motivated. Who's in? Any idea of guidelines? Time frame?

Extreme Veteran 745 Colo Springs, CO | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge I'll play, although mine will probably end up being 8 lbs. No great ideas on timeframe etc. Maybe have a weekly weigh in (posting on this thread)? |

| Littleton, CO | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge I'd be up for this, although I'll be lifting more in the off-season. So I might be more focused on body-fat %, but I could sure lose the weight as well. |

| Colorado | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge The Turkey Trot (I assume that's the 27th?) sounds perfect...lose 10 lbs. right before the holidays start! That averages a 2 - 3 lb./week loss, which seems about right... |

Pro 4228 Broomfield, Colorado | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge I'd be in too! I don't want to lose that much wt but still need a goal of some sort and some accountability. I like the TT idea! I'd also would still want to continue through the winter. I also want to incorporate more strength training, at least for myself. |

New user 13 | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge Most communities in CO will be having a Turkey Trot. There are just a couple listed on the RacingColorado.com calendar right now, but I'm sure there will be more added right away. I'll give the nudge to the race directors to confirm detail. Longmont is a big one. |

Expert 671 | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge I'm in. With a 10 lb loss I might even set a new 5K turkey trot PR as a goal. |

Expert 997 Littleton, CO | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge Ok. So the plan is to start on October 1st with the initial weigh in. You can post your weight, or not, whatever you're comfortable with. We'll weigh in on every Wednesday, with a new post under the Colorado board, stating how much weight we each lost. Each person sets their own weight loss goals. We'll look for a Turkey Trot to do and call that the "Big Finale". Does that work for everyone? |

Master 1924 Denver | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge Can I swap 10 lbs of whatever weight for 10 lbs of muscle? I can't afford to lose 10 lbs. or I'll be one of those too skinny people that my friend always says this about: "they look like they need to eat a cheeseburger!!" |

Elite 3489 Lakewood, CO | Subject: RE: CO 10-lb challenge Hey, if I go back to Monday the 15th and start then, I already have a 7 lb head start. Then again I would not recommend my methods (or wish them) to anyone I could gladly target 198!!
