    Hi there, I'm trying to continue my journey in losing weight. Going on 1 year and half and 100lbs lighter I'm still not where I want to be yet.
    I'm 34, 5ft7in, currently my weight is 94.3kg (207lbs).
    My plan is to go to gym 5 days a week and do my Shaun T on weekends. Keep counting my calories and drinking much water.

    Hi, I’m joining this challenge.

    I’m 29 years old and when I started this challenge I was 62.6kg (138.2 lbs) with a height 152cm (5’0”).

    My plan: Walk 10,000 steps per day or do a workout. Workout at least 3 times a week. Drink 2 liters of water and eat around 1200 calories a day. I am on the Dukan diet (low carbs/high protein and no alcohol)

    Weight lost so far: 0.8kg (1.8 lbs)

    Hi, I also want to join this challenge.

    I'm 31 years old, 72.5 kgs and 165cm.

    I started my journey to lose weight since a year ago and already lost 5 kgs. The thing is my lack of consistency to do this makes the progress go very slow.

    My current plan: do workout on alternating days, eat 1200 calories per day.

    @HabishaGirl. Didn't do well as I was away for 4 days for work. Started off ok but ate rubbish all day Sunday and wasn't great on Monday. Weighed myself this morning 85.5 (up more than 1kg from last week).
    Not giving up though. Aerobics last night and back to healthy eating today.
    Hope things are going ok for you now 😊
