[SeeraRirii]

It's ending soon! :( 15 days isn't much time to start now! Mind if I use your idea as a springboard and extend the length for myself? I'll link back, not that I have many subs lol

[GetFitGamer]

@BrandonTheGeek It was up here theother day. But youtubes video response service has been very screwy recently.

[GetFitGamer]

@Timetoshine01 awesome!

[Mowet100]

[GetFitGamer]

@Mowet100 awesome :D

[crosspecans]

im in..having prob attaching vid. oh well.

[GetFitGamer]

@crosspecans so are a few others, just send me the vid on youtube or the link and ill add it to the challenger playlist on my channel.

[Canterhard]

OMgosh, TOTALLY away from caffeine and fast food AND chinese food!??? lol. YIKES! You are SO ummmm....either motivated or crazy! :-) GOOD Luck!

[GetFitGamer]

@Canterhard The reason Im choosing to knock those things out is because they trigger all the other food addictions. I notice when I eat extremely healthy I don't crave that often and I do feel more energetic.

Thanks for waching, btw I am crazy.

[Canterhard]

@GetFitGamer , okay you do have a not so crazy point about triggering the other stuff. lol. (trust me I'm with you on that one!). I'm like you, once I'm off junk food awhile my body no longer craves it and healthy food tastes AS GOOD as junk food! (do you think they put addictive additives in junk food? lol) I'll be doing a video and sharing your challenge with some friends/family who would benefit too. Still deciding changes to make. Caffeine? NO WAY! lol Junk Food? sighh... hmmm.

[Canterhard]

@GetFitGamer, I guess my other reply didn't post, darn! Anyway, I'm with you at heart, eat junk food, crave it more, eat healthy, and suddenly healthy food tastes SO good! Same whenI quit smoking, smoking=WANT 2 smoke more, quit smoking=WANT 2 eat more! (oops, wait, did I let that slip out? lol). I'll be joining the challenge this weekend too. I gained 20 lbs the last 2+ mos since I quit smoking (talk of shame! lol), but it was SO worth it. Your challenge will help me get rid of the weight!

[GetFitGamer]

@Canterhard Glad to hear you quit smoking and that you are joining the challenge.

ALso looks like your other comment did post :D

[spiderwoman333]

i'm in while make a video this weekend :)

[GetFitGamer]

@spiderwoman333 thats great :D

[ftdRaw]

[GetFitGamer]

@ftdRaw awesome bro!

[HamFitness]

Hey I'm in man! Just left my video as a response!

[aliskey62389]

Silly question: How do you make a response video? I want to post my Self upgrade video >_<

[HamFitness]

@aliskey62389 I don't mean to step on GFG toes, but I am here and noticed that you just posted this question.. click where you would leave your comment for this video " just like you did for this one.. then click attach video "located just right of the comment box.. On the next page clich choose a video and one..

[aliskey62389]

@HamFitness Thank you so much!

[HomeGymFitness]

I will be signing up soon. I was just waiting for a package in the mail that is going to help me accurately gauge one of my goals

[katoverton]

Submitted!

[Salinna79]

I'm in! :)

[Salinna79]

Making an entry vid soon! This is perfect timing for me! Good job on your challenges, I know you can do it!

[GetFitGamer]

@Salinna79 I would love to see you join up, not as many people as I hoped so far, but then again most wait till the last minute, I know i would hehe.

Ty for watching as always :D

[Salinna79]

@GetFitGamer I've never done a challenge before, but I think this fits the bill. :)

[JumokeTVfitness]

I will be joining your challenge :D I'll post a video on wednesday!

[GetFitGamer]

@JumokeTVfitness oh sweet, that will be great :D

[goddessofkats]

I'm coming up with my list! watch for my re:!

[GetFitGamer]

@goddessofkats awesome cant wait :D

[TreavorClark]

cutting all fast food out?! whoa...that is a true challenge. I have a Taco Bell addiction..

[GetFitGamer]

@TreavorClark THe longest i cut out fast was 100days.

[TreavorClark]

@GetFitGamer my girl tried to help me quit but it was maybe 30 days. awesome tho...i may think about making a post on here and 3 things to work on...hmmm

[GetFitGamer]

@vonhismean this challenge will definitely be easier than the raw food jumpstart.

[SkoogGaming]

How come no chinese foods? Are they bad for you?

[GetFitGamer]

@SkoogGaming no skoog, nothing wrong with chinese food, it's just when I eat restaurant styled chinese food I eat alot of it and I'm addicted, so I eat it once or twice a week and each time I eat way too much. Also alot of americanized chinese food has alot of added oil, some even has MSG which is an unhealthy additive. As for real chinese food it's probably much healthier than a lot of foods.

[bsjo31]

@SkoogGaming Ima be nosy and answer you lol Yes. Chinese food has A LOT of grease, oil and is packed with calories. For example, fried rice, the egg rolls, most of their meat will be fried. They use a lot of sugar in many of their dressings and sauces and sometimes even mayonnaise. (This is at restaurants, I can't say this is how they eat in their homes) It is also LOADED with sodium, which makes you retain water. You can make your own healthy version at home =)

[CheesyMcK]

Ahh, I love this idea! This is a fantastic challenge and I really need to do this. I'm out of state right now, but I'll try to get in a vid before the 8th. I really NEED this. lol. Thanks man.

[GetFitGamer]

@CheesyMcK Thats great, I was hoping you would be joining up :D

[Ishkiia]

okay at first I thought I was watching a used car salesman. lol but then I realized it was good ol you. sounds like a nice challenge I 'll do this in conjunction with my 2unfit2quit channel team. your goals are challenging but very doable. trigger foods are dangerous and I think you are wise to get them out of your sight .. eventually you will get them out of your mind in time.

[GetFitGamer]

@Ishkiia i was waiting for someone to call me out and say i sound like a car salesman. :D

[micahstubz]

i'll be joining the challenge under my thintopia challenge.

[GetFitGamer]

@micahstubz awesome sounds great.

[medini2]

I just got some info this am on yt from a MD..&i thought it rather strange, but so very true from my experience: Whether it is caffeine, nicotine, drugs or sugar, you have to quit cold turkey and for at least 10 days to 2weeks; These things compete for the same recepters in the brain. also, it is good to eliminate grains and fruits during that peroid of time. ( i think they must compete as well!!)

So to quit smoking, quit fruits,grains,sugar,caffeine,d­rugs for 2wks. That's my plan.

[GetFitGamer]

@medini2 That makes a lot of sense.

I'm going to do the best I can to go cold turkey.

[aliskey62389]

You should look into Korean cuisine food. It's much healthier and incorporates a wider variety of vegetables and focuses on the ritual of preparing and making food aesthetically pleasing, rather than just tasting good. It engages more of the senses. :) Bibimbap is my favorite.

[GetFitGamer]

@aliskey62389 Ive seen that dish before on a menu in seattle before didn't know it was korean. Thanks for the advice i'll look into some dishes.

[Disillusioned2010]

ahhh YAY i been waiting for you to do something like this :D you'll have my vid by tomorrow morning :D

[GetFitGamer]

@Disillusioned2010 awesome :D 

[1q2w3e4r5t6yusername]

good luck yall

You can do it!!

Do it because it feels good, you deserve it, love yourself by feeding and nourishing your body with the most healthy nutritious noble foods... living energy

peace!!

:)

[GetFitGamer]

@1q2w3e4r5t6yusername thanks :D

[evilmagic43]

Your videos motivate me a lot. I am a chubby pc gamer but now I feel I need to change. Thanks!

[GetFitGamer]

@evilmagic43 Hey man just start slow one thing at a time thats how i did until the ball started rolling.

One thing for sure is the healthier you get the better your brain functions and the faster your gaming reaction time. I really noticed a diff from when i first started losing weight.

[JourneytoMyself]

Chris, thank you for being such a positive force in the WLC. You continue to be awesome while others have dropped off. I dropped off due to personal reasons which I will share later to you, perhaps, but I am back and ready to attack!

Thank you for putting this together!!

P.S how do I select what clip I want for my thumbnail? If I want to put the 'self chall' icon up instead of my face, how do I do that? K keep being great.. ttys!

[GetFitGamer]

@JourneytoMyself Unfortunately you can only do the custom thumbnail if you are a youtube partner :(.

Thank you so much for the kind words, glad to see you are on board.

[UNCOVERINGTHEREALme]

Making my video as we speak, I'm really glad you did this cause I needed some support and it just felt like the community is falling apart a little bit. :(

[GetFitGamer]

@UNCOVERINGTHEREALme (fixed comment)

I started this challenge because I gained a bit of weight like I said. I liked they Shayloss days and some of the other challenges that have popped up. It makes weight loss vlogging a bit more interesting. Looking forward to your videos.

[UNCOVERINGTHEREALme]

@GetFitGamer Yeah I know what you mean, those were the days! But there are a lot of people who just up and disappeared and even those who are still around are kind of aimlessly making videos or making videos that have nothing to do with being healthy...I have a feeling this is going to be good! :)

[GetFitGamer]

@UNCOVERINGTHEREALme I hope so, I will do my best to be as interactive as possible with everyone making videos.

[UNCOVERINGTHEREALme]

@GetFitGamer You're really good about keeping in touch with people even without the challenges so I don't think you'll have a problem! Thanks for doing this!
