I was supposed to be Captain 6 so cannot be on Team 5 so you have a choice of jennahiggins or Italiana_xx79. That would then only leave me and one of the above. It seems the numbers are a bit off - were we not meant to pick 7 to include ourselves? I will not take part anymore and this will avoid the complication of…

Hi All Tina sent me an email to be captain but missed me off the captain list. I am captain No 6 so I get whoever is left at the end of picking, so If you let me know if thats you and I will also check I just dont want to miss anyone out. I will then take all your names and let the challenge begin! I am off to think of a…

Wow glad I read this, it was my second day of C25K today and I hated every minute of it - mainly because I am so selfconsious as I am 210lbs and I think I trot rather than jog or run, I would be fine if no one was about haha. Anyway sticking with it after reading your post thanks

Hi I'm from Blyth Northumberland

This sounds great for motivation and fun I really want to do this. Is it too late to join? If not here are my measurements:- Weight - 212lbs Waist - 44 inches Neck- 17 inches Hip - 47 inches Forearm - 12 inches Bust - 49 inches

Love it too! Makes me realise that diet and exercise are the best option and keeps me motivated. It is my personal opinion but I dont agree with surgery for myself, it has so many issues for me that I would be really uncomfortable with. I would rather know that I could have fish and chips, meals out and christmas dinner…

I went on holiday with my husband then "oh no" we were near his friend from work and his wife (both very slim). We arranged to go to the beach together and I was easily the biggest out of the four of us. I went and got my snorkel and mask out and off I went into the water, it turned out they had never been snorkelling and…

Hi I am from North East England feel free to add me - anyone else can too

I have a shopaholic friend who gives me her clothes she does not fit into/does not like etc and many of them still have the tags on - There are some amazing tops in there and I have not got three boxes under my bed of "not quite there yet" clothes hehe. Give me a few months and I will start dragging them out for a try on.…

Great post thanks! I am going off to the shops to buy some, I love tea!

Thank you for the enlightenment, the last time I used weights was the early 90's it was light hand weights and it was during a low impact aerobics with weights class. I really felt the difference after the first class compared with when I had not used them. Well I best get rid of my excess body fat before I start wishing…

Hey well done you, feeling bad and then doing something that will make you feel better after not worse should keep you inflated for the rest of the day! Imagine how you would feel now emotionally if you had ate the chocolate! Gillian

Maybe if your desire to be slimmer and healthier was more important than the snacks. I have a "fat" picture of me at work and look at it often for motivation. I have one little mantra on my diet - I MUST think about it before I shove it in my mouth. So even if on the way past I swiped a lovely looking cake, I sit down and…

Thanks for this site, I will go and have a look.

Hi Feel free to add me as a friend. Once you get into the swing of things and you start to feel better that will give you lots of motivation to keep going. I have a few health problems because of my weight too, I have only done this for two weeks and added walking to my daily activities and already I feel the benefits and…

Hi I am from UK too, been on this for two weeks, I am getting a bit hungrier before meals because I never exercised before, feeling much better and find it soo easy to calorie count on here, have the app on my iphone as well so I can add while at work. Feel free to add me as a friend. Good luck Gillian

I love tall fat guys, love a bit of podge. I dont know why maybe I have a santa thing going on haha!

I love Hot Bean Pot and its really quick to make and you can just as as much or as little of the ingredients you need. Tin of tomatoes Up to a tin of kidney beans Peppers Onions Mushrooms (any veg you have in really) Teaspoon of chilli powder Cook your vegetables for a little bit to soften then add the rest and bring to a…

Hi Kayla, good luck when you get going - for a bit motivation what about a picture of something you would really like to wear if you were 68 pounds down or something you will buy yourself stuck on the fridge. You could have a few for each 7lb to keep you motivated. Gillian
