    I'm almost back at the weight I was at before leaving on holiday which is pretty great because it means that in 2 weeks I lost what took 4 weeks to put on. I'm feeling pretty motivated to keep going at it now and maybe after my endless losing 3 kilos, putting on 3 kilos I might actually make it this time :-)

    Matt has come crawling back like a dog with his tail between his legs and while I figure out whether I want to give him another chance he's taking me out for dates, which is actually quite fun. I'm not forgetting what happened but it's nice for us to rediscover eachother a little. And at least it has put some spark back in my eyes.

    I'm off on a business trip to India in a week which I'm very excited about. I'm going to be staying there on my own for 3 weeks though! And when I come back I have my 10k race, so I know I'll be spending a lot of time out there training (already checked out the hotel and it has a massive gym :smile: ) I ran 63 minutes for the first time a few weeks ago and was so proud! It's really crazy how much running helps you mentally, it has made me so much stronger!

    Have a great week ladies, whoever still reads this :-)

    Hey Joni - I still check in here on a regular basis and I think Mandie also visits so there are a few of us still here. Congrats on the weight loss and getting back to where you were that must be a fabulous feeling. Your motivation is awesome by the way and you will do great I believe you have got this and will succeed.

    Your bus trip to India sounds wonderful, I would love to visit there some day - have fun!!!

    I am still working on my running, signed up for my first 5K on June 18 and I scared, nervous and excited all at the same time. I know I can do that and I want it so bad that I am going to work my butt off getting it and I just keep hoping that I am able to succeed and enjoy it when I am finished. Also considering signing up for 2 more 5K's this summer but want to see how my first one goes first.

    Hope you also have a great week :happy:

    Hey everyone! I just saw my ticker and it says "10 pounds lost"!! Woohoo, finally got the first 10 in!

    Arrived in India today and will be here for 3 weeks... without a scale... so let's hope I get home to a really small number! I'm definitely going to try to continue here, but it will be hard work since I will be eating hotel food only. The gym seems amazing though!!

    Have a great week!

I've decided to lose another 5-8lbs and could us some extra support & accountability so let me know if you'd like to buddy up for awhile longer! :flowerforyou:

    Was it really June 25th?! Wow, crazy how time flies! I definitely want to stay in touch with you guys, I liked this little group. Though Mandie I believe you're starting up a new thread? If so can you post the link? I'm still in India for another week so without scale but will post weight when I get back x

    I would love to continue to keep in touch with you guys, everyone is so supportive and helpful and I really need that more than I like to admit.

    Mandie - I totally love that idea and I love the name you picked out as well, it is not dorky at all :wink: Okay maybe a little bit but it is still fabulous :happy: I like the time period and everything, we should do this. I know I could really use the accountability and the motivation from friends again and this little challenge was awesome for that and for me.

    Let me know when you start this up - I don't want to miss out on it :happy:

    Kickin Christmas Crew sounds amazing :smile: Let me check in with Jamie and Alyshe as well to see if they want back in.

    I do want to keep it small as well because what was amazing is that I feel I really got to know you guys and that motivates me so much more, there are some other challenges out there with 500 members and I just feel lost in those.
