    Well done Nikki. :flowerforyou:

    Checking in for week 6

    I did the challenge - none of E's sweets and duh der duh

    I weigh 133lb exactly - so hit target and since I last did a measure I've lost 6 and half inches all over too :-)

    Good luck everyone.

    Target next week is 131 as I'm off out for a Thai tonight and it's E's birthday so there's going to be cake flying about (not literally :happy: )

    Starting weight: 179.5lbs
    Week 1 weight: 177.5lbs
    Week 2 weight: 176lbs
    Week 3 weight: 175lbs
    Week 4 weight: 175lbs
    Week 5 weight: 174lbs
    Week 6 goal: 172lbs
    Week 6 weight: 173.5lbs

    No biccies for me, so the challenge was fine.

    Bit disappointed given that I tried really hard last week, but trying to console myself with the idea that losing 0.5lbs is still losing, so that's all good. Not expecting much this week though as I had a terrible weekend involving cocktails and eating out twice, and I will have little to no opportunity to hit the gym this week, so I'm simply setting my Week 7 goal as 173. Not gonna make the 10lbs weight loss, but any weight loss is good by me!

    Nice one Boooie! And everyone else, we're all doing great :)

    I've been a bit grumpy about my weight loss this week (seem to have hit a slight plateau and finding it hard to shift into the next gear) but I'd thought I'd share a completely random,l highly hilarious experience with y'all; I was walking through Birmingham City Centre the other day on my way to meet a friend. I'd gone straight from work so was wearing my new size 16 coat from New Look (which always gives me confidence as I've not been a 16 since I stopped growing after puberty) and two guys a little ways behind me were having a conversation about celeb ladies they find attractive. Their conversation turned to people on the street they'd "do" and lo and behold, they both went for me! :P Now, any normal person would probably find that offensive and mysoginistic, but since most of my interactions with strangers in public have been them shouting fat-based insults at me, this felt great! I was tempted to turn around and hug them, but figured that might give them the wrong idea :P

    Ah, I think I'm gonna epically fail this week; I don't do much in the way of strength training as I HATE doing it, and often hurt myself. Add that to the fact that this week has, so far, been a massive food fail... :S

    I've gotta weigh in tomorrow; I'm off on Friday for the start of the hen weekend so I won't be around any scales after Thursday. Not expecting anything good, but at least I'm preapred for it so hopefully I won't crash and start crying at the clinic!

    I'm game for keeping this thread going until Jitterbug does another challenge. Shame so many people dropped out; looks like the majority of people still in it are from our team so we have a good chance of winning :P

    Have a fab time stacebob, look forward to hearing about it after the weekend!
    Think we should definitely keep going on weighing in each week, otherwise I think personally I will go down a sllippery slope of not being good! And of course I would miss hearing the little snippets of news from you all!
    Reckon we stand quite a good chance of winning, don't think there are any other team left, just individuals. I don't mind winning by default! X x

    Thanks ladies :) I doubt after one or two cocktails there'll be much thinking at all, let alone about my calorie intake :P

    Weight damage this week was actually less dramatic than I originally suspected; gained just half a pound. I'm not too disappointed since I was honestly expecting to put on about 1.5 or 2!

    Winning is still winning, yeah? :P

    Anyhoo, my final weigh-in:

    Starting weight: 179.5lbs
    Week 1 weight: 177.5lbs
    Week 2 weight: 176lbs
    Week 3 weight: 175lbs
    Week 4 weight: 175lbs
    Week 5 weight: 174lbs
    Week 6 weight: 173.5lbs
    Week 7 goal: 173lbs
    Week 7 weight: 174lbs

    Total challenge loss: 5.5lbs (not too shabby, if a terrible way from the target!)

    No strength training for me this week.

    Could someone ple post this to the Week 7 thread for me on Saturday; I'm not going to be around for most of the day. Ta very much :D

    Hello - Signing in for week 7 - wow that's gone really quickly.

    After a busy weekend foodwise, I now weigh 133.8 so put on 8oz.

    I'll keep an eye out for the Summer Challenge if Jitters starting one. I'm off to Birmingham now so could someone post my result for me.

    Good luck everyone.
