Weighed this morning... 266.4lbs... AGAIN! So that means i'm 2.4lbs up on the start of the challenge! Ah well - the measurements mean I've changed shape so it's not all bad... Rach - I'm up for whatever you throw at us! We'll continue with this thread so if we can all post our starting weights so it's a pin point for the…

Jen - That's so true! Woo hoo for getting smaller! And we're both doing the christmas challenge thing too - good luck for that xx

Yay! Thanks!

Well I forgot to weigh before breakfast this morning as was rushing to get Brac ready to go back to school so will add weight tomorrow... Have, however, just done my measurements and I'm amazed! starting measurements (cm): Neck - 36 Chest - 103.5 Waist - 109 Hips - 127 U. thigh - 65 U. Arm - 43 Current measurements (cm)…

Am I too late to join?? I'll post my details and if I'm too late I will cry and cry!! Current Weight (As of today): 267lbs Challenge Goal Weight (for Sept. 1st): 243lbs No of pounds to lose: 24 Weight Category: REDUCE! 9/1: **start of challenge** 267lbs 9/8: 9/15: 9/29: 10/6: <<<mini goal weight ___>>> 261 10/13: 10/20:…

Brac's back at school this week so I'm going to be right back on it.. Will try and get to the gym on Monday morning before I go and pick my bike up and if the weather's good will go for a bike ride after Brac finishes school.. Will weigh tomorrow morning too - don't think it's going to be a loss - think I've gained -…

I bought a bike today! I'm well excited! Now we just need to get a child seat for DD and we're good to go! Looking forward to measuring on Monday morning.... Can't guarantee I'll have lost any weight but hopefully the measurements will show something! We are going to keep the group going aren't we? I'm not sure why we all…

Is this the last week of this challenge? Blimey!! That's come quick! Don't forget then everyone to do your measurements at the end of this week.... Even if the weight hasn't shifted the inches might have! Kettlehell was hard this morning - TOM arrived and so I was feeling a little dizzy with the jumping about... Had a…

I'd forgotten all about the challenge - damn... Sorry...

Tami - so good to hear from you - glad you're managing to deal with things... I've had a problem with boils too - often where clothes have rubbed me and I've got sweaty and usually when I'm stressed about something... I've started using a more natural shower soap and so far so good! Becci - lucky you with your gym…

don't have the link anymore Jen - could you post it again? Save me trawling through all these posts! I'm still not calorie counting though... want to see if I can be sensible with my portions and food control without having to write everything down... Bit of an experiment see! Will be ordering my hot pants tomorrow and it…

I'll give the challenge a go - need to get back into the swing of things... Do we just do 1 every day or all of them every day?! Will write it out so I've got it to hand (after watching the vids!!) Have ordered some Zaggora HotPants.... They were on offer with my groupon site and all the reviews i read said you really do…

they sound divine!

Hello! I'm back! Sorry for the MIA - went on a camping trip with the family... Expected to gain (again!) and I've lost! I refuse t adjust my ticker though.... I weighed last Saturday and I was 267lbs :grumble: and today I weigh 263.8lbs :smile: Not going to get too excited though as knowing my luck I'll put it back on…

First off - to Jen - The HUGEST *HUGS* ever! You will be better soon and back at it and I wouldn't mind catching your cold to give you wonderful cuddles xxx Becci - I know EXACTLY how you feel... I'm really struggling to get back on track... A piece or 2 of chocolate muffin cheese cake here, a bbq there... It's all adding…

AAAGGGGHHHHHH my appointment has been cancelled! Apparently there's no Dr's available to do the assessment! What a joke! So They said they'll be in touch with a new appointment.... More weeks of limbo.... And to top it off I awoke this morning to a swollen leg.... The area I was stung/bit last Tuesday is now about 3" in…

Not going to be joining in the challenge this week girls - head and heart just not in it.... Will be raring to go next week I'm sure so we'll do it again?? On a plus note I did got for a walk today with DD in the pushchair... Walked about 2km which is just over a mile... Met up with OH and DS who'd gone for a ride on their…

Love it!! Need something to get me back on track! Bit of a bummer week though as I can't go to kettleworx this week - damn medical assessment is on Wednesday.... Will do what I can though! Maybe we should do it every week until the end of the challenge - it's not many left now!

Tami - Good for you!!!! Substituting one addiction for another won't make you happy but being who you want to be will!

Oh no! Hope it doesn't lay you out for too long.... Back pain is the worst... I pulled something in my back coughing when I was pregnant with DD and the dr I spoke to over the phone decided I had blood clots on the lungs! Scary! But apparently laying flat is not the best thing for a bad back... Just keep things gentle....…

I'm still here! Had an awful weekend food and drink wise - but it WAS good for the soul!! This week I'm going to try and stay under my calories... I'm in a slump because I just can't shake this 260 mark... I get to about 262 and for some reason shoot right back up to 266 again! I really don't understand it! Then I get all…

Is everyone drifting away from here? We seem to have all fizzled a bit this challenge.... :cry: :cry:

I agree with Becci - have a chill day xxx Tonight I'm having a friend over for a girlie night... Got wine, gin, nibbles, facepacks, a footspa and some pretty nail polishes.... And we're going to watc sex in the city 1 AND 2! It's gonna be heaven!

So sorry to hear about your loss Courtney.... xxx Becci - Yup Jillian likes to kill but at least you'll have the cals to be able to enjoy your lovely graze goodies! Wait till you get the flapjack - it's divine!

ooo what did you get in your graze box? I've had to postpone mine for a while as money is tight and I've got a bit of a backlog!! Thanks to you all for being so understanding... I don't want to let any of you down by disappearing.... I'll keep up with things just not be so militant on the calorie counting... Hopefully if I…

Right... It would seem I need a few days to get my head straight.... I'm utterly all over the place at the moment.... I'll still be lurking but I'm going to take a step back and get my head into gear.... I'll be back ladies... It's a wobble, not a quit.... :ohwell: :heart: :smooched:

wow. Haven't felt this low for a while... And so tired to boot.... My mum (who is a retired doctor) wants me to go and see my GP... She thinks I may be anaemic or have a thyroid problem... Will make an appointment asap... Quite enjoyed kettlehell today..... Felt really good afterwards for about an hour and then slowly just…

Bargain!! Get on the boxfit!

Oo exciting times in your new gym Becci! What classes do they do? I'm so tired at the mo - waiting for TOM to arrive... blah...

I had a really good gym session this morning! Voluntarily did some kettlebell exercises as well as my usual cardio and weights... Rather enjoyed myself! TOM should be here in the next few days as weight has bounced back up to the 265 area.... Not to worry - it WILL be off and I WILL be under 260 before the challenge is…
