hi guys,

was wondering if anybody wanted to do a challenge from the 1st of January to Valentines Day, and then maybe keep it going until Paddy's Day, Easter or Summer depending on how much weight we have to lose and how much interest is in starting a group?

all suggestions are welcome, weekly weigh-ins, challenges, recipies, tips etc

anyone? :flowerforyou:

    ok there have been a number of replies to this post but in case it's going nowhere yet I'm going to replyto everyone that has posted and send a friend request to each of you.
    Not sure if theer is another/ better way.

    To start off:
    Starting Weight: 118kg (2 Jan 2012)
    Goal Weight: 90kg (16 July 2012)
    Current Weight: 112.4kg (11 Feb 12)

    Exercise 6 days a week and with the exception of one weekend I've been really good at watching my calorie count. Last two weeks my weight loss has slowed down so I'm looking for motivation, support, tips, ideas, prayers, anything!

    Anyway if you're up for regular updates and support then accept my friend request. If not, best of luck anyway :)

    I'm still up for this but I need to restart and reset my goals, as I have faffed around for the last month or so and made no progress. Motivation has finally properly arrived.
