Exactly a year ago, I signed up for the Feel Great in 8 challenge. I loved it (I did lose weight). With the Holiday seasons quickly approaching, I know it will help me keep things in moderation. I tend to go a little crazy during this time of year :) The other thing I liked about the program was that it pushed me to be better in different aspects other than just eating/exercise. I have decided to sign up again, and I do so much better when I’m held accountable with people I know! (My mom joined in last time, hopefully she’ll do it again). So who’s with me? I’m extending an invited to all of you!
Here are the details.
Feel Great in 8
The October group will run from October 6th – November 30th. (8 weeks) I know what you are thinking, but don’t worry, Halloween and Thanksgiving are both free days. This makes it doable.
For eight weeks you gain and/or lose points based on healthy or unhealthy choices. Points are reported online at www.feelgreatin8.com. Each participant contributes $20. $10 to the prize money “pot” and $10 for website creation/upkeep and to pay the host. At the end of the eight weeks, the competitors with the most points will get a share of the prize money! There are also weekly motivational prizes.
Tiffany has been hosting challenges for over 7 years now. In the past, winners have gotten as much as $350, and the greatest 8 week weight loss so far was 36 pounds! Take a look at her blog as well, she shares some great healthy recipes.
So who’s in?

If you sign up, add me on MyFitnessPal under Ajsullenger!
Here’s to getting healthy and hopefully earning a little prize money just in time for Christmas!
Hi Ashley! I have never commented before, but I sure love to read your blog! The other day I was feeling a bit discouraged in my quest to be healthier and then I saw your post. I decided that this may be the kick in the pants I need to re-motivate myself! I joined the challenge and I am excited for it to start! Thank you! I will be looking you up on Fitness Pal!
ReplyDeleteI just signed up! This sounds like it will be a fun challenge!
ReplyDeleteI just signed up and invited you on myfitnesspal. I'm natalienmorgan. I'm excited to start this challenge! I did one similar to this one but without the spiritual aspect, so I'm excited to focus on that as well. I'm that random lady that came and introduced myself to you and your cute family at Mesa Falls. I realized afterwards that I might have come off as a bit creepy. I'm sure its strange to have complete strangers approach you as if they personally know you. Sorry about that, I just think you're wonderful and couldn't believe I was actually meeting you. I guess you could say I was starstruck! :) Good luck with the challenge!!
ReplyDeleteI am signing up! Thanks for the suggestion! You don't know me personally, but I went to high school with some of your family at West Jeff and have followed your journey. You are amazing, thank you for always being so willing to share, I know your experiences have helped me be a better mother and wife.
