I know this is very ambitious but I'll be happy to lose anything! My next goal is to lose another 5 lbs and I'd like to hit this as soon as possible!

Who's with me?

SW: 59.3kg (130.7lbs)
GW: 57.2kg (126 lbs)

I will weigh in on Good Friday - 14th April 2017.

See you all then! The winner can feel completely innocent when eating all the chocolate eggs... what a prize! :)

    I want to see 9 stone too. As of today 3.5 pounds to go. I'm sure I can do this :D or get as close as possible.

    A lot of it is water weight anyway!

    6 lbs in 2 weeks! Not healthy when you've little to lose :/
    Aim for 2 instead, slow and steady wins the race - we don't want to be losing too much muscle which is what quick loss does.

    I've hit 9 stone 3 pounds now so only 3 more lbs to go. This is what I was at before I got a little ill so now I can properly try and lose the next 3 pounds :)

    The Easter eggs was a bit of festive fun guys. No need to be so bitter :)

    Well done @mbanks123 you're doing great :smile:
    Meanwhile the scale for me is fluctuating up a bit but it's likely because I have inflammation from the sciatica = water retention

    Only two weeks til hols...

    Aww no. My friend suffers from sciatica. I didn't realise it causes water retention. It will go and then you'll reep the rewards

    I'll join late! Currently 126.4lbs at last weigh in a week ago. I'm shooting for 125.0 by Easter! I didn't weigh this Monday intentionally so I can see a bigger drop later on!
    Cheers!
