JANUARY CHALLENGE - New Year, New you!

[Busy Mum]

Only a week of December to go and a few have shown interest in joining a January challenge so lets do it! Same rules apply as usual, the challenge will run from 1st to 31st January, all you need to do is pledge your weight loss for the month and weigh in day below. Anyone can join in whether you're on LT for the whole month or just for a couple of weeks.

JANUARY CHALLENGE - 2013 we're ready for you!


It's not a competition - it's just to challenge ourselves.

How it works:-

We have all pledged an amount of pounds that we aim to lose in January.
I'll update this first post with everyone's losses as we go along.
You can join in at any time just pledge your weight loss and weigh day.
Keep posting your losses even if you achieve your pledge early so we can see how well everyone has done at the end!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The challenge has now ended. Well done to all who took part. An incredible 271.89lbs (19st 5.89lbs) was lost by 19 different people!!
Special congratulations to the following who achieved their pledges:-

Hello BusyMum thank you for seting up a new challenge. As January is a long month I'd like to pledge 20lbs please. My weigh in is like yours on Friday. Good luck for your weigh in tomorrow! xx

[NewGirl2013]

Hello Busy Mum do you think it would be fair if everyone has 5 weigh ins in Jan? just to make it equal for everyone? my 5th weigh in will fall on the 1st feb so I would like to update ma table on the 31st Jan , would that be OK? (weigh in Friday)
