Nikki Massie replied to the topic YWM sponsorship letter goal in the forum Weekly Action Plans 7 years, 5 months ago
I will take the liberty of adding context. 😉
Konica would like to go to Obesity Action Coalition’s “Your Weight Matters” Convention in August in New Orleans. To do so, she would need to secure a sponsorship and plans to ask her doctor’s office and a few other places to drum up support. This requires a letter. She has started writing it but needs…[Read more]

You guys are doing awesome with the water!

Well I give you an A for effort!
Yeah see I don’t want you to spend money if you think that you are likely ignore the thing. But it is important to get enough water! (Dehydration = not fun.) So let’s keep thinking together about ways to improve your water intake.
Rome wasn’t built in a day!

Are you just trying to drink plain water or do you flavor it? Also do you have a smart phone? Before you try something like Ulla, you might try an app like Plant Nanny.

I’m so proud of you!
Yep, I am going to do my workout tonight. But in general I love the idea of texting to say I am doing it and I did it. It was kinda fun waiting to hear from you too!

Dear Eve: When God said don’t eat the apple…he meant don’t eat the apple!
(I’m betting you can guess what’s going on in my life.)
Pain, nausea…ugh. It’ll be over in a few days. At least with all the water I’ve been drinking during the challenge, I am not retaining water weight.
Today I am holding up my end of the bargain with @kathy-p. She…[Read more]

We are in the homestretch of another great challenge.
Do you feel like you’ve improved any habits during this challenge?
The increase in water consumption for me has been inspiring. Doing this with all of you, knowing we’d all be reporting back, has made a real difference.
What about you?

Thats true but…apps are easy to ignore. (Especially in situations where you are not paying attention to your phone, like at work.) Ulla is not!

80 ounces in, unplugged most of the day. I ended up having to get up and have a snack not long after I went to bed last night. I had my snack just before bed so I could sleep through the night, but before I made it to bed, my husband and I had an unexpected adventure. He was out back letting the dog have one last trip to do her business and caught…[Read more]

Nikki Massie started the topic How to Join the FNC Facebook Group in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 5 months ago
Ok! So this is something I went back and forth with in my head, frankly.
But I decided to make us a Facebook group for several reasons:
- Because it’s where most of us are all the time anyway.
- Because it’s an easy way to deliver important info (events, etc.) and get you BACK to the site when need be.
So here are the general parameters of the…[Read more]

Once my stupid phone uploads this video to YouTube I’ll show you the device that’s been helping me with my water. Until then…how ya doing???
We’ve got 10 days left in this challenge, so if you are still working your way up to 72 oz. of water, try to consciously increase what you’ve been getting by 4 oz. per day from this point forward. You can do it!

This is something I’ve had to remind myself of frequently over the past nine years. Sometimes I have to remind myself many times in a day.
Hunger is not an emergency. It’s just not!
Why do I say that? Well, a few reasons:
The human body is actually built to withstand food for a good amount of time. Estimates are that the body can survive…[Read more]
