in Motivation and Support
Hey I've searched on the site and seen nothing about this on here so here goes.

As people might already be award of there is a personal trainer who has been gaining weight for the past 5months in a bid to understand what overweight people go through and from the 5th nov he will be losing all the weight. (Drew manning fit2fat2fit)

He has said that from nov 5th he's going to post his workout and eating plan that he will be following and wanted to find a group of people who wanted to follow him doing it and 'join' him doing it and lose weight together.

Each week we would weigh in and though out the week we can just discuss how we are getting on etc.

So it starts 5th. Hopefully we can get a good group started and help each other :-)

    I would love to sign up also. Although I am a sole parent who can not go to the gym or the road for exercising I do have a treadmill.
    So if those things do not stop prohibit me then I'm in.

    I would really like to try it out! I've gained 8 pounds over the summer from my 27 pound loss. I really want to get back on track and need some motivation and support!

    Hey
    I'm not gonna stop you joining :-) I think on one of this blogs he Rawr that the nutritional side is a big bit and the first week he is solely doing food without excersise.



    Let's add each other! And keep track I'll do a roll call on Nov 3rd so we are all ready etc but before then we can get to know each other and get support pre challenge :-)

    This is Drew Mannings website. I've been going through all the previous blogs about his journey some of them are really interesting esp when he's talking about his emotional side of it :) quite inspirational already.

    I'm just making an excel sheet just for reference, might make this a closed group so its easier to manage. And we can have our first offical weigh in the 4th? which is a friday and do it every friday after? Or should we do it on the 5th and so every Saturday.

    Let me know how people want to do this.

    Just remembered that I'll be on holiday back home as it starts so it might mess a couple of things up for me but I'll try my best anyway!

    For all the newbies and anyone else who may not have seen the new thread I started for the group:

    On the website Drew Manning has updated his blog with a 'pre' blog for what is going to happen from november the 5th Just repeating it on here incase people don't check it regulary.

    http://www.fit2fat2fit.com/2011/10/it’s-world-it-feel-fine…/

    He tells us he will be using supplements and gives us which ones he'll be using so if anyone out there wants to get them as well you have time to get them before the 5th!

    I won't be getting the supplements as I can't afford nealry $500 for them but I can still do the diet and training program.

    Could be interesting if some people do decide to get the supplements what different effects or benefits they find from them vs the poepl who aren't using them.
    But have a read of his blog, I've added him on twitter as well so I know if anything is happenening.

    Getting really excited about the 5th and my boyfriend he says that Drew has inspired him to get back at the gym and starting losing weight and getting fit and wants to do the fat2fit section with me woot :)

    Thanks I am super excited. I cant wait for the weight in. I am kinda disappointed he is using supplements though. I dont have the money for that but I will work as hard as I can....Anyone who wants a support buddy contact me!
