Big Thank you to everyone who took part

This is the final update from me. Thank you so much to everyone who took part in this challange and made it memorable and enjoyable one.

You all have done brilliantly and I am so proud to be part of this challange. Do not worry if you did not lose as much as you intended to. The most important thing is that you made a decision to do something about your weight and you did it. Not everyone losses massive amounts every week and I am a fine example of it. You just need to chip off a little bit each week and soon it mounts up. Anyway, the slower you lose, the longer you can maintain. Also please remembre that we live in a real world and need to eat variety of food, socialise and enjoy ourself so do not be too hard on yourself if you go off plan from time to time (as long as it is not a regular event).

This is not a fad diet and works for almost everyone. It has certainly changed my life as now I eat healthy stuff, cook meals from scratch, avoid proccessed & artificial food as much as I can, eat proper meals and exercise a little (walk). What my mum always says is "too much of anything is poision" which is true in case of food - eat too much of wrong stuff and you suffer from all sorts and put on weight.

We have lost 356 lbs (25 st 6 lbs) which is about 2.5 average person. That is fantastic results.

Although this is my last challange, I am not disappearing and will keep my diary up to date. Please drop in talk to me. Link is below in my signature.

Thanks again for making this challange an enjoyable one for me. I have made loads of friends and have had amazing support and help and without each and everyone of you I could not have reached my target.

Happy Easter and Good Luck with your weight loss journey.

Hi Rosie - Thanks for taking the time to do another challenge, I'd love to get rid of 20lb by Easter to see me at my new revised target. We've done it before and I know we can do it again! :D

I might want to join, but I won't know until the 2nd of Jan... will I be okay to join then? I know that won't technically be 3 months but I have no idea what I'll want to loose before then

you can change your target at any time

I thought to set it up so I have no excuse sticking to plan after christmas day. Yes we have done it before and can certainly do it again.

You can join at any time during the challange and change your target whenever suits you.
 
Thanks a million for doing this again Rosie. I found the Christmas one great - despite the fact I'm probably the slowest loser!! I only have 4.5lbs to target now so that'll be my target. Given the fact I'm a super-slow loser it's highly likely that it'll take me til Easter to lose it but that's ok!

I guess I will update the below start weight & target after next Thursday's weigh in and that will be my starting point.


Largerthanmost - Start weight 11 stone 13lb Target 20lb to lose
Rara Lara - Start weight- 12st 12lbs, Target 28lbs to lose
Rosielea - Start weight 12 stone (168 lbs), Target 14 lbs to lose
Slimming Sinead - Start weight 10 stone 11.5lbs, Target 4.5lbs to lose
Welshtigger - 28lbs to lose

Yes fill in when ready and I transfer to the master sheet. I am a slow loser too, so we are in the same boat.
 
I love these big challenges. :) I want to reach target by Easter so will say 21lbs to go. That takes me just below target.

You stick to whichever plan you are doing
Weigh once a week
Register the loss on here
I pick it up, update master list
Publish once a week

Will post the rules by next week so everyone knows the rules. This is the 3rd challange I am doing - hopefully my last one to get to goal. Just keeps me on track and get loads of support from team members.
 
Hi can I join please, I have around 40lbs to lose, but for this challenge I will aim for 21lbs as i tend to have lots of 0.5lbs losses then a big one.

Great stuff def easier with morale support xx thanks
 
Hi I would really like to join as of 2nd jan also my target is 1stone. What day of the week do we have to weigh and post?
As we are starting the challange on Thursday then I will update every Thursday evening. However, each member carry on weighing on their normal day and post their losses for exampe if your weigh in day is Tuesday then you post losses on or after that day so I can pick up to update the list and publish on Thursday. I am not expecting anyone to change their weigh in day - that only thing I ask is for each member to update on a regular basis and let me know if they do not wish to continue with the challange (no need for a reason but just let me know so I can take them off the list).
 
I will add myself after WI on Thurs 27th - I would love to be at Target for my hols in Mexico on 16th April so thats my aim. Probably means a 21.5lb goal to lose
