Okay, it's clear that I'm not the only person suffering from 'spring fever' aka losing my focus. After doing so well from October on the Cambridge Weight Plan, I 'opened the box' of my appetite and I'm battling to get that sneaky sucker closed again.

I know how I got so overweight, I know I'm an emotional overeater, .... And none of that seems to count for much post-work/supper time. So. Time to roll up my sleeves and get serious!

Two weeks strictly on plan 100%. Time enough to break these stupid new self indulgent habits, get into ketosis and get back in the game!

I suggest we start officially with synchronised weigh ins on Sunday 11th May, log the stats as a start point, and have nightly "Honk if you were 100% today" check ins. We'll all push and motivate each other and re-weigh on the 25th as the big 'reveal'..... Of course I may just be doing this solo lol;) but all newbies, restarters and "I'll join in just because" participants welcome!

Let's leave May slimmer, healthier, more motivated and focused than when we arrived x
 
I'm here too! See you ladies on the 11th!
 
Subscribing to cheer you on :party0011:
 
Subscribing. Not great with challenges . . . I seem to be the queen of self-sabotage.
 
Count me in :D I'm stalling and need a fresh challenge to get the scales moving again. I'd like to get to 11'4'' by the end of the challenge which is a reasonable and achievable target (5.2lbs)

I'll be doing 3 packs and 2 eggs. I'll have a count up of packs to check I've got enough, and order some if I don't :)
 
I'm not able to start on Sunday - it is American Mother's Day - but if I can have a delayed start, I'll join you in Monday and go two weeks.

BTW - I just had a S & S cherry chocolate shake. Yum yum (but I noticed it's 160 calories - so a bit higher).
 
Is it tomorrow????

If so I am well up for it!!!

I so need this in my life... I am a stress eating monster. Stress seems to engulf me and the only way I can stay above the surface is to eat myself out.

Just taken up swimming which I think will help ( just been now while my daughter was at a lesson) only did 10 lengths but ten is better than none. I'm also squatting like a mo' go' each day - I'm doing a trick with a pack of cards ( prison fitness style) you basically turn over the card and squat the number on the card, ace is 11 jack king or queen are 20 and a joker is a sumo squat holding for 20 seconds.

My butt and gutt are improving already!!!
 
Hi, I'm Nigat. I really really wanted to also embark on the two week challenge. I have an 8 month old baby and am struggling to lose my baby weight. I am currently on day 3. I would love to buddy up with you guys. Have two stone to lose xxx
 
So excited about starting on this tomorrow!
 
Sorry I'm late!! Better late than never! Bev I know you mentioned this challenge on your thread/my thread? I don't know a thread! Anyway I'm here and I believe our Superohero Clinq (I imagine her flying in with a white cape) is going hardcore for 2 weeks from today. Yay!
 
Morning ladies, day 4 for me and I think I may be on a roll finally. Since Thursday I have lost 7 pounds. Really pleased. I know I must stop weighing myself daily but it's a real motivator at the moment. Coming off my totm is helping me shred that excess bloat. I hope I can do this for a month This time. I return to work in 4 weeks after my maternity leave. I'm an English teacher at a local secondary school. Dreading going back.

I have had 1234.6778 restarts on this diet but failed miserably every time. First time I started this diet 6 years ago I was 10 stone. I seem to have gone up and up after abusing the diet and not doing it for long enough. I am now 12.1 after having baby. To be honest I was 12 stone when I g got pregnant so I did start over weight.

I am determined to do this. The diet is expensive and soul destroying if abused but life changing and liberating if nurtured and adorned ???????
 
173 (.5 less than I weighed on April 22)

Congrats on your great start! And BIG congratulations on your baby. The good thing about being a teacher is that you'll go back for a few weeks then have about six weeks off. I was lucky - I had my son in May and didn't go back until September (in the US we have 10 week's in the summer because we don't have 1/2 term breaks and only one week at Easter).
