    I just make sure I'm under my allowed calories per day. No aclohol. Planing my meals for the next day is
    a winner with me cause I stick with it. Im with MFP 2 weeks now and have lost 12lbs. I dont exercise YET, but am getting
    my head around it. Its my Birthday tomorrow and Im getting kettlebells, stepper and a few other bits to start me off....

    i am also eating less than my allowance and i have started a fitness plan too. i go to aqua arobics and zumba, i have bought myself a WII but im not too keen on the game i got with it, so think i will have a look to see what else i can find. (down side to living in the isle of man) shops are not to good. may have to get on line and do some shopping.

    I'm in. After this week I need all the motivation I can possibly get. My exercise was great this week, but my eatting definitely sucked. I wanna drop a total of 18lbs by Christmas/New Years, but I'll settle for 10-12lbs by Christmas.

    I'm still testing the waters with the cal intake. I'm trying to see what works for my body. I weigh in tomorrow and have Church tonight. Hopefully I can get a circuit workout in tonight afterwards.

    I find the biggest loser challenge on WII great. I got it from Amazon.
    Good luck.

    welcome to the challange .. how is this going for everyone, first weigh in on sat moning peeps..

    not too sure how i have done this week to be honest as it was TOM and after i set the challange i put 3lb on over night.. i havent adjusted my weight on here cos i think i would sit and cry, but 2 lb is back off already and still a full day to go.. and i have done no exercise at all (had band cramps for the last 2 days and the 2 days before that i was recovering from the walk i did..)

    but hey ho weekend is just round the cornier and i will be fighting fit by then

    I weigh in every Thursday.... On 11/3 I dropped 4 lbs :)

    My plan is to stay under my calorie goal and exercise 4x weekly. I have no issues with the calories during the week but really struggle on the weekends. I work out at my lunch time (we have a gym at work) and am finding that when I don't work out my mood starts to decline. I haven't gone to the gym in years but am really liking it, to my surprise.


    SW: 219
    CW: 215
    GW: 200 by Xmas
    Final GW: 160
