Replies

  • Thanks Rosy for all your hard work! Well done everyone, 1 lb wasn't much of a loss for me this week. I plan to work much harder this week and have a great loss on Saturday. So no treats or alcohol for me but the results will be worth it.

    Go team North, YAH!!!

    Well done all. I'm looking forward to getting back to work on Wednesday (yes I am mad, I'm excited to be going back) partly due to going back to a routine. Eating at the right times, gym after work etc. It's hard work staying organised when you have a week off work doing absolutely nothing.

    I've got a lot of work to do to make up for the weekends badness. Think I might have to punish myself with another 10k run on Wednesday just like last week.

    Good luck for the week ahead everyone. February tomorrow. Where the hell did January go ???????

    Well done everyone.

    Sorry to let the side down by not losing anything last week (to be honest, I was pleased when I found I had stayed the same !).

    I have just signed up to do the Race for Life in memory of my mum & I HATE RUNNING - so perhaps this will give me even more incentive to shed the 7lbs (at least) that I still have to go!

    Fingers crossed for Wednesday's weigh in

    Cheers

    Now I'm not gonna give the game away and my weigh in day is Friday, but it's looking very good for me this week 8-)
  • I'm not going to be weighing in this week. i've had the worst week ever at work and have had a dominos and a chocolate bar!

    Nothing wrong with a takeaway every now and then... Gets your body working.

    As long as it's once in a while rather than every night you'll be fine

    not look forward to weighing in saturday, its been my little girls 4th birthday this week, 2 parties so far and 1 more to go, so there has been lots of cakes and goodies around ( i have had no willpower at all) had a few extra bits everyday but not gone too far over calories but haven't done hardly any exercise - must try harder next week.
  • 1.5lbs off for me! I'm am now officially under 160lbs! So happy!

    Good luck to everyone!

    Sepa, livingforever,kpnuts, RGPargy, kerry2285, ifeelsqueaky,Fliegenschwein, CygnusR, Mat_lock and 4pence from South, as well as the 10 people form north and 4 from south who weigh in on Saturdays- if you can message me as soon as you know, I can get the results table out. I'm going to publish no later than 8pm, earlier if I've heard from everyone.

    Up the Northern Numpties! (Although Toby Flood comes from Surrey, and I'm appreciating him tonight!)

    I had a filling from dentist this evening so didn't go to the gym. I am going to the gym tomorrow morning so if you can wait until then I can send it after that.

  • I lost 0.5 lbs this week, but as I only joined the challenge on Thursday I wont include it! GO TEAM NUMPTIES :)

    Week 3 results.......

    worldsbiggestloser.jpg

    This week, there are loads of people who have done well. I've highlighted those who have lost 4lbs or more, or more than 2% of their bodyweight.

    Overall leader is definitely Glos_bloke of the Softies who lost a massive 8lbs!
    Followed by kettlewitch (5lbs), Lauz_88 (4.4lbs), idharris (4lbs) and carolinegeorgia (2.08%) of the Softies and
    bph218 (4lbs) and savagegirl (2.53%) of the Numpties.

    Massive congratulations to them all!

    Given the above list, it won't come as any surprise that this weeks team award goes to....

    THE SOUTHERN SOFTIES!!!!!!

    WITH 0.83% of the teams weight lost this week, compared to 0.59% of the Northern Numpties. I'm afraid us Numpties were soundly trounced this week :sad:

    Here's the grim detail:

    Well done to gloss bloke, all that exercise is paying off. Well done to me, the sore legs are worth it lol. WTF southern sorties, we were due the win. And well done all for sticking at it. Bring on next week
  • :happy:

    WOW! Thanks guys!

    It's only been 2 weeks since I started tracking everything on MFP. Already I've made some great friends and feel so much better! Long way to go, but the journey is turning into an enjoyable one.

    Best wishes to everyone on the challenge. Even those Northern Numpties! :laugh:

    Damn right, Kendra!
    My knee is much better, so I should be able to exercise more this week. I know it's completely obsessional, but in order to try and nip any plateaux in the bud, I'm tracking my calories consumed/ target/ exercise earned against my weight loss. It's already looking as though my weight loss is far more related to the amount of exercise I do than whether I go over or stay under my calories....
    So off to ballroom & latin tonight, complete with sexy knee support :laugh:

    well done softies!
  • Whooooo go Southern Softies! :bigsmile:

    Sadly I only lost a pound this week but then that is what MFP is predicting I'll lose so I suppose that's only natural! Let's hope I do a bit better next week though :wink:
