I personally would like to lose 20lbs so I've done a stone jar with 20 stones in. For each pound I lose I'm taking that number out.....
Here's to an empty jar xxxx

    Hi all! I'm here to get back on track after gaining 5kg (approx 11 pounds) from laziness and a six week holiday. We're planning to start a family soon so I want to rid myself of this last little bit so I'm in tip-top shape, but I really struggle with motivation... mostly exercise-related. Hope we can help each other!

    Wow you all have such high targets, I wish you all the best of luck. I have put back on 1 stone over the last 10 months and now want to shift this, but finding it really hard to get back into the routine. So here we go - if I have lose half of it (7 lbs) I will be really pleased, but any minus will be good.

    Hi all, I've got about 15 lbs to lose overall. So I'd be happy with losing around 7 this month. . But also hoping to gain some muscle mass. So numbers may be lower. So my goal, burn some fat and gain more muscle. Good luck everyone, we've got this!!

    Hi! everyone! I'm Chris. I like the stone jar idea, too. I have 10 pounds to go. I'll most likely get rid of a pound a week between now and Nov 30th, so that's four pounds this month. I weigh in on Friday...140.0 this morning.

    Okay...I don't have stones, but I have little binder clips which I have clipped around the top of a stemless wine glass. For each pound I lose, I will remove a binder clip from the edge and drop it into the glass.

    This is great to see so many in the group... I'm pleased the stone jar is a good tool for some of you too.... I was thinking of setting up a private group on Facebook as I don't receive notifications of this group and can't post pictures. Would you be willing to give it a go?
    If so my name is Rach Louise on there. I'll try and get the group set up x
  • I'd be keen
  • Starting late on this group, hope thats okay. I really need a group to motivate me! Want to lose at least 10-16 pounds by Christmas. Love the Stone in the jar idea!
