I'm in it to win it Yesterday would have been day 1 for me if I hadn't forgotten that last supplement Here's to a successful 100 days!!

[nickieluv]

As I said in Sue's journal I'm getting an attack of nerves about this 100 days of compliance thing. So I might just break it up in my mind as ten days at a time. So the first mini-milestone will be 7/17, my daughter's birthday. That'll be an easy one to remember.

I'm sure I CAN do it, but I have not had much faith that I WILL do it based on past experience. At the moment I can't think of a single reason not to be compliant. This challenge I think will be helpful. Will I want to blow it with other people coming along for the ride? What about that public service I was talking about earlier?

OK, so, 100 days and hopefully 40 pounds. I know it can be done with MF but I'm mostly focusing on the number of days, not the number of pounds. The number of days is the only thing I can control after all. One day at a time, one evening at a time (since those are my hard times), and I have the advantage of the musical taking up almost all my evenings for the next three weeks, so I can get 20% of the way to the 100 days goal without a lot of struggle I hope.

Alright, I started it, I can't believe I started it, but it has begun and I'm both scared and excited by it. I'm trying to imagine how I will feel on day 99 - and hoping that by day 101 I won't go nuts off-plan!!!!

Have I mentioned I'm scared? This seems unreasonable to me that I am experiencing this much anxiety about this challenge. I'm not sure exactly what I am afraid of. But I'm going to remain compliant and I'm sure I'll figure it out - whether I'm afraid I can't do it, afraid I'll miss certain foods too much to endure, afraid of the success I might have - but off I go on day 2! Time to get more water....

100 Days Compliance All You Guys! Whoohoo!

[SuzyQ66]

Nicki - just take it one day at a time. You just need to get through one day at a time and we will all be there to help each other. I think when you look at 100 days as a whole - it does get overwhelming. But knowing that we are all in the same boat, will make things easier for you, make you accountable, and then before you know it - 100 days will have passed. You can do this Nicki!! I as well as the others are counting on you!!

[nickieluv]

Yep - one day at a time, one meal at a time, one choice at a time - I can picture though how good it would feel to have gone all 100 days when October comes. Well, hubby's home so I need to go - day 2 done!!!!

[Mickeyz]

Nicki,

I thought long and hard before I got on board for your 100 day challenge.
I am still having some nerves over making the commitment. I love your idea about taking it in smaller segments. It's the old "How do you eat an elephant?" One bite at a time!

I did great my first 70 days and started faltering here and there for the last couple weeks. This is a perfect way to get back in the groove. And what could be better than all of us doing it together and supporting one another.

Thanks for getting this going. It will be fun! (she says with eager enthusiasim today )

[HappyHomeMaker]

oh NICKI!! don't be scared!! I'm right there with ya.

I've found that once I was compliant the weight came off!!! It's still coming off!

[SuzyQ66]

Hey Nicki - I hope everything is going well today.

[Serendipity]

I've found that once I was compliant the weight came off!!! It's still coming off!

You mean it's that simple?????

Sorry, couldn't resist

[nickieluv]

Jo, you're incorrigible. Yes, you've been preaching it to me for months - I'm very slow, what can I say?

Today is going well. I'm getting more excited than scared about being compliant for 100 days. Imagine where we'll all be by then! At last count I think it was 11 people on board. How crazy that this is catching on! Now we all have to stick it out together.

[Lizabette]

There's power in numbers! WTG, NICK and guys!

[SuzyQ66]

Hey Nick - Congrats on day 3 for you - Unca posted on your challenge board that there will be a prize - check it out!!

[nickieluv]

Oh man, more pressure, now the powers-that-be are watching us....

Day three over and done. Had to have my L&G last and I don't like to do that, but there aren't any rules against it that I've heard of so I was compliant - woo hoo!

I mean, there better not be any rules against it - that would suck.

Long day and late night and I keep checking in to hear from Biki and she's still not here!! Does she realize how we suffer without her?

HELLLLLLOOOOOOOO, BIKI!! IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THERE? MISS YOU!

[Sojourner]

I mean, there better not be any rules against it - that would suck.

I don't know why, exactly, but this made me snort-laugh!!
