Okay gang, tell me what you think of this. Our challenge ends after day 42, or Oct. 13 at midnight. I will send a vita-mix to the lucky winner.
Here's the thing: I want to keep going. I'm going to the November immersion and want to continue the streak. Then after that we have the holidays. I want to get through those with as little harm as possible. We're talking Oct. 13-Nov.24 for the second one, and then Nov. 25 - Jan. 5 for the third. Then in the new year, everyone else will be dieting and it won't seem so hard to eat healthy. Plus after 3 challenges, we'll have such great habits, maybe we won't need more (ha, I wish. I think we'll always need extra motivation since we're going against the society's grain).
Here's an idea we came up with on the Fuhrman forums. How about everyone who wants to join contributes a small chunk of change ($5? $10?). Once we know how many entered, we decide on a gift or just pool the money and give it to the new winner? Or divide the cash between 3-5 winners? I know in this challenge I will have a hard time deciding who the winner is! If we do a money pool, who should decide who wins? I don't mind doing it, and I'm happy that it's hard to choose because it means a lot of people are making great progress! And of course, the best reward of all is your health! Alternatively we could have a small jury decide but I don't want to pile on the work for myself or others. Please send in your thoughts and ideas!
