  • Hey buddies!!!
  • Hey guys!
    Eeek I am so ridiculously excited for this! This is my first BL Challenge and I'm Team Hera leader!
    Being the little geek that I am, I googled our goddess. Hera is the Greek goddess of women and marriage (ironic really seeing as her husband Zeus cheated on her in about 50 different ways...). Her Roman counterpart is Juno and the animals attributed to her are the peacock and the cow.
    So yeah. Can't wait to start! Good luck to everyone!
  • Hi team! This is my first BL challenge as well! It's going to be great motivation as I've been maintaining for two weeks! Look forward to getting to know you all!
  • Oh, and is someone gonna make the "banner" we can put in our signatures? (I noticed last challenge people had them...)
  • Well I've just done one (told you I was a geek!) but I might make another (more mature!) one too...

    This one is a picture of Hera from Disney's Hercules!!! :P



    If anyone wants to make a better one please do!!!
  • Hello Team!
  • hi all!
  • Hi everyone! I'm really excited! Let's bust our butts like it's going out of style!
  • whoooot!
  • I like the banner! I'm ignorant...how can I get the code to put it in my signature? lol. sorry...might be obvious.

    So I had my weekly weigh-in tonight (I'm on weight watchers and I only weigh in there), so my official starting weight is 175.4. I was VERY surprised at having a 2.4 lb loss this week. I am bloaty (TOM decided to visit), but I'm not gonna fight it! Would have been nice for the challenge for the sudden drop to have been the second week (I've been maintaining for three weeks...ugh).

    But I've upped my tracking and my planning. How is everyone else doing?
  • Hey everyone! This is also my first BL challenge on 3FC, and I'm really excited to take part
  • Ashley- I saved the pic to my desktop and uploaded it onto my signature

    I'm about to start my weights, it's the first week in a year that i've done it so i had to drop down to 10 lbs and my arms have been so sore, at night it's hard to sleep it's so painful but it's better today lol
  • Wow! Congrats ade903!!! Keep it up!!
    I've copied and pasted my banner code for you:

    just delete the last space between the ] and the G and post on your signature or as Haley said, save the picture to your hardrive and then upload it!

    Haleygirl: sounds like you're doing good! the more you do the weights the less it'll hurt right? thats what I think when I'm feeling like dying on the elliptical anyway! haha good luck with it and let us know how you get on over the weeks!

    Well I weighed in yesterday.
    Argh.
    I've been working stupid hours all summer and have had not a lot of social life because of it. So I finally finished my job on Saturday and since then havent stopped. Meeting friends for lunch, for dinner, for drinks, going out, beach days...plus we have family staying with us until tuesday and my mum always makes AMAZING food when we have guests so it's been really hard to stop myself!
    So (of course) I've gained 2lbs

    I can't wait to go back to university next week and get back into a routine! I'm moving into my first ever flat (with some friends) and I'm looking forward to being in charge of what food is in my kitchen. I do a Musical Theatre course so I'll be starting back with my dance classes which should help with the losses as well

    Hope you're all having a good friday and please dont forget to post your starting weight on our WEIGH-IN THREAD!!
  • I had a great day yesterday. I hit the 160's, an old friend of mine who I haven't heard from since elementary school got back in contact with me, I actually FIT into my boyfriends pants with room to spare &&&&&& my boyfriend picked me up for the first time (that I let him anyways lol) and he didn't seem like he had any trouble at all! No grunts or heavy breathing...he just picked me up like it was no big deal :O lol

    And today I weighed-in at 168.8. I'm still in shock my weight is dropping so fast, especially since I was having the hardest time this month with my diet. I haven't been eating past 9pm for a week now, and as hard as it is for me to do...it seems to be working for me so I'm going to try and keep up with that.

    I hope everyone is doing well.
