    Bump. I thought it automatically started a new thread and would link the new to the old.

    Right. Bought the christmas dress! Its very form fitting so I can't be carrying any extra weight by christmas or it will look ridiculous and will not be getting an outing. Its so beautiful and is going to act as serious motivation for the next couple of weeks. Just finished a tough session in the gym. Am whacked and usually I would gorge myself on chocolate but am resisting the temptation. Just had tea and a low fat museli bar instead. No more snacking till dinner.

    Stay strong everyone!!!:flowerforyou:

    Hi all!

    Im not sure if it automatically creates a new thread..? It doesnt seem like it has...

    Welcome to all the newbies on the challenge! Its never to late to shed some lbs. I hope you find the thread a useful tool! It is definitely helping to motivate me!

    Just post your total lbs lost each weekend, or post them to me directly if we are friends ( anytime before Monday) and I create a list of success and post monday evening GMT.

    I weigh in tomorrow, and I am not feeling hopefull! A last chance workout is on the cards for me today! What a way to spend saturday?! BOO!

    Keep those losses coming!

    Feel free to add me :)

    You LOVE IT, and you know it :wink:

    I'm still participating, but I can't really weigh myself properly until I get home in two weeks, otherwise the figures may be distorted as I'd be using analogue scales which are in Kilos, then I'd have to do the conversion etc etc etc - you get the picture I'm sure :bigsmile:

    I'll post you my losses (he says confidently!!!!) in two weeks, then again the week after that before I go to Hungary, then again the day I get back which is also the day before I go to California, so I'll just make the last weigh in before Christmas - doubt it will be 20lbs, but I'll be trying!

    yay found the new thread!

    fas my wi was yesterday i've just done my first workout for this week did 50 mins this time when i normally only do 30 and i'm going to make sure i do one tomorrow night for sure!

    I'm getting closer to my goal weight so i'm burnng less calories than i usually would - i looked into joining the gym but for now i think i will just have to get up early and workout then as well as in the evening!

    I'm down 2.8 lbs this week I am feeling awesome, I haven't been great but I keep trucking forward. This week is I have been exhausted and in pain from a bad back and on the worst times I ate too much at times but I tried to work out more and get back on track. Every day is a challenge

    Drank a bucketful of wine last night and of course indulged in late night snacks. started off today with a cheeseburger meal from Macdonalds. Blew myself right out of the water there!!! Will just have to start again i suppose. Will blitz the exercise this week and hope I dont pay for my overindulgence. Hope you are all doing better out there.

    Taz: I soo understand about the wine! I do love a nice shiraz! Another rough weekend for me. Boy are weekends hard! My husband is home all week and not working so that will be a challenge too. He loves to eat and watch T.V. Usually he works at night so I'm on my own and find it much easier to keep track of my food. This whole week will be a challenge for me. Yesterday I bought a Walk Away The Pounds DVD so, I will see if I can fit that into my day. I also bought a pilates DVD because, all I had was on VHS and I don't have a VCR any more. So hopefully, I can incorporate those into my week along with my lunch time walks. Have a great week everyone!!

    I have officially lost 25 lbs since I started exercising and using mfp on august 25th. I think that's pretty damn good. But I believe I am hitting my plateau. I'm going to have to change some things, switch some stuff up. I'm down by 0.8 lbs. It's a loss but....I'm not going to let it stop me. I'll just keep chugging along. :wink:

    I guess we aren't allowed to be on the list if we gained? I will be showing a loss next weigh in anyway.
