    Whoohoo!!!!!!!!!! Your postcard from the UK will be on it's way to you by the weekend.

    My hols in the Lake District played havoc with my weight loss and I'm up to 181lbs today (I've lost 2.5lbs since being back so I'm hoping to lose plenty this month)

    As for my hard work:

    Zumba class (which I tried on my hols and loved), twice a week;
    Keep up with my water intake/stay within calorie goals;
    Exercise at least 30mins, 5 days a week (more if poss. My calorie burn for the week is 3000);
    Work hard to complete my C25K training, which just isn't happening!

    The point of this challenge is to motivate us to loose weight, and we will get a postcard :) The old fashion way :)) I love post cards and i miss when u go to the mail and get a letter/postcard from a friend, everything is so virtual these days, but anyways, if you like you can write on the bottom what your goals are to achieve maximum weight loss...

    mine is that i will pay more attention to my food choices...i have been slipping up,

    exercise is out this month for me- i will be doing light exercise since its the month of fasting for me (Ramadan)....... but i will do my best !!!!

    I'm in again! Starting weight of 216 lbs (TOM is here and I've gained 1lb in bloat since monday... but I'm pretty happy with that, normally I gain 3-5!)

    Goals - More water, keep watching the calories, and to get off my butt and exercise.

    I'm in...but I don't know if I should put my weigh in from Mondays...or todays weight after being bad for 2 days! :explode: I'm guessing todays is probably mostly water retention from sodium overload. How about the middle?

    Starting: 229.0

    I'm in and I'm smaller than you but please don't ostracize me as I have my challenges too still trying to loose my last 6.5 lb on this journey ( that was my goal weight) So I'm in too as I need some motivation and support too. Just like you do as when you get to your last few lbs: it is actually harder to lose the weight!

    Starting weight 126.5

    Love Jane x

    Down to 180.5lbs today. Not the best weight loss, still a loss.

    I went to see a friend last week and ate out almost everyday. Came back and weighed 183lbs, not good.

    I'm ready for the next Postcard Challenge though!!!!!
