hello! im usually more of a lurker than a poster but this is a good solid challenge so im well up for it! im a bit late on the thread but ive already started ww 2 weeks ago and lost 2 lbs and i make it 14 weeks til chrimbo so 1 stone is my goal! i have three weeks before university starts back and ive nothing to do except lose weight between now and then, and im going to do my workout dvds (hip hop abs!) and be good on the food thing BUT i had repeat exams all last week and i was (understandably i think) not writing in my tracker or even paying attention to what i was eating so im really expecting a gain at my weigh in tonight.
so id really love a big kick up the ar...bum!

oops still classing myself as a newbie and to busy reading my way through the forums I had forgot I was doing this challenge.

I had started at the 16 week marker so for me my weight loss mini target is 16lbs and my weight loss over the last 2 weeks was as follows.

Start weight: 227lbs:mad:
week 1: - 3lbs:carrot:
week 2: - 4 lbs:carrot:

I know I've been really lucky over the last 2 weeks so from now on I'm expecting no more than 1lb a week which to me is fine, I get my mini xmas target (fingers crossed) and get to wear the dress I bought last year for Xmas.

Im weighing in, which i was meant to do last night but i was too depressed, and i was right in my suspicion: i gained a pound. but i know why it was and ive got nothing stressful to prompt carelessness for a month at least so i've no excuses! last night i had a final toast feast (white bread, loads of butter) while watching the final of Hells Kitchen (Go Barry McGuigan!) and now im back on the straight and narrow. no exercise yet today except hoovering.

1/2 off this week :)

(started at 16 weeks to Xmas, looking to lose 16 lbs

Start weight: 227lbs (16st 3lbs)

week 1: - 3lbs :carrot:
week 2: - 4 lbs :carrot:

I'm not able for challenges I'm just aiming to stay where I am and if I lose thats fantastic but if I don't then thats ok too.

I would like to join in please, not been on here in a while and my weight has crept up. Just stood on the scales and weigh 16 stone 12lb :o.

Not ver happy about it as u can imagine lol. My aim is to lose the 12lb for xmas which I work out to be 8 weeks away, but I would be happy to lose 8lb.

Like Irish Rover, I'm usually more of a lurker...but I've been invited to a wedding just before Christmas, and my wight has been creeping up, and none of my smart clothes fit:o...so I've got two reasons to take the challenge.

Fee - I think you've lost a month! It's the 25th of September today, so there's October, November and December to go - 3 months = at least 12 weeks.

I'll be very happy to lose a pound for each of them.

Now I need to work out how to do one of those trackers:)

Thats right there are 12 weeks left to christmas.
Welcome fee and clytemnestra.

Oh, I must have lost a month somewhere lol :o

Oh well that gives ma better chance to lose 12lb in 12 weeks :cheer:

Good luck to everyone, and thanks for the welcome.
