hey guys..
we all done so well with last years christmas challenge and to be honest i have well and truly falling off the wagon and gained backmost of the weigh i lost .. im just putting this out there for any of you interested in starting up a new challenge.. im not 100% sure yet what the challenge is going to be so i need people that are willing to set a weekly challenge every now and then.. we have 12 weeks to lose a full stone.. 14lbs thats just over 1lb a week which is very acheivable.. please comment under this post if you are interested in joining and send me a private mail with your starting weight.. we will be starting on monday the 1st of october and our last weigh in will be december 17th (1 week before christmas)

andrea xx

    I would like to join in too!
    I was just saying the other day that i would like to lose a stone for Christmas and a weekly weigh in tracked by someone would be great! I lost weight last year and regained it, similar story for a lot of people i guess!
    Maybe we should have a calories burnt goal or minutes of exercise challenge? (Not a competition, just a personal challenge)
