Hi All

I seem to keep missing the deadlines on challenges so I thought I would make my own!

Some of you may have seen The Last 10 Pounds on TV - well - I thought this would make a good challenge for those of us who are trying to get rid of those stubbon final pounds.

It will last for 4 weeks and the only criteria you need to meet are:

You have between 10 and 20 pounds that you need to lose
You can exercise at least 3 times a week
You are willing to keep to the challenge for 4 weeks

The reason for the last one is I want to keep it to quite a small group so please dont say you will join then not contibute. I think having a small group will a)help build stronger relations b)enable me to easily track progress. I want to keep it to 15 members

If you want to take part, post your weight below and you will be entered into the challenge. I will pop you onto the spreadsheet

The challenge will start on Monday 9th Jan and weigh ins will be on the following dates:

Monday 9th Jan (start weight)
Monday 16th Jan - Week 1 weigh in
Monday 23rd Jan - Week 2 weigh in
Monday 30th Jan - Week 3 weigh in
Monday 6th Feb (Final weight)

Thanks :)
Mrs C

ETA: Once we have the group - I'll close the topic and create a group for everyone

    I would love to join! I want to lose 15 more pounds ASAP. November and December have slowed progress for the last three years, but I always get back on track in January. I really want to be between 135 and 140. Right now I'm at 153 (gained 5 pounds over the holidays, just lost 2 of those haha) and I am ready to go! I've lost 30 pounds from my highest weight at 181.
