Do you remember when you were a child, and the thrill of trick-or-treating? I'm looking for some challengers who are willing to take an 88 day challenge. From today, 8/9/06, there are 88 days until halloween. So, here is the challenge rules:
Starting today you totally go cold turkey and give up sweets. That means 88 days of no candy, cakes, pies, cookies, or regular sodas. For 88 days you will only use sweetners in your tea, coffee, or kool-aid. One additional goal will be at least a 1/2 of pound weight loss each week. When you begin the challenge you will pick one "treat" that you will award youself with at the end of the 88 days. So, you have 88 days to avoid sugar and then on Halloween you get to treat yourself to one special treat.

I personally have a very hard time dropping pounds so I'm hoping this challege will add a boost to my weight loss.

Ok, the one item I would choose to treat myself with on halloween would probably be a slice of beesting cake but since I know one slice would be enough to use a weeks worth of calories for me I have decided to choose my second favorite treat.

My halloween treat will be a dove's candy bar.

Hope you will join me for the next 88 days.

Britt
