Mission 100 - Lose 100 in 100 Days

This mission commences on June 22nd and ends September 30th. The mission is to lose my 100th pound on SparkPeople by October 1st. This is a stretch but a doable goal.

The goals:
I have lost 70 pounds - lose 30 more and I'll reach 100. The goal is simple - accomplish this by 10/1.

Sub goals:
500 Hours of Cardio
500 Servings of Fruit and Vegetables
100 Hours of Strength Training
Walk/Run 100 miles (exercising not just steps)

Weight Targets
Be below 300 by July 1st
Be below 290 by August 1st
Be below 280 by September 4th
Be below 275 by October 1st

My reward: TBD
-- My thoughts - a formal dinner with wife wearing my suit from our wedding 16 years ago -- OR -- A 2 night get away to a BB near the ocean or Atlantic City (if business does not send me to Vegas for a week in September - wife will sneak along on that trip!)

Open to suggestions including the reward part. Live near Harrisburg, PA.

Have a good night - Paul

    You so inspire me and funnily enough I have set a goal to be under 300lbs by the end of this month. I know you can do it, oh and I'd go for the 2 night get away.

    What a great new mission! I know you can do it! I'm really hoping when I get out of the 200's my husband and I will be able to take a little celebratory trip to Vegas!


If it were me I'd want to go to NYC!! That's just me though, I love the city especially in the fall. I don't know what you and your wife enjoy doing but you could see a show, or just wander around Central Park, you could buy some incredible new clothes for your incredible new body!! There's 1000's of amazing restaurants to choose from too. If you wanted to go for a really fancy nice dinner in your wedding suit NYC is the place to do it!

If you're not too keen on NYC then I'd go for AC, my husband and I used to go every month or two when we lived in NY. I just think something really fun would be a better celebration that something quiet and romantic.
