Independence Day Challenge!!

Well done Thelma!!! That's amazing.

Just realised I need to lose 4.2lbs pw to hit my ID goal! After 2 weeks of 2lbs losses I'm hoping next week might see a 5lb loss. Not sure why my losses aren't great.
Don't get my wrong, I'm pleased as overall I am happy with what I've done. Not that fussed as clothes getting looser, but I will be annoyed if I don't hit my goal!!!!
 
Congratulations Thelma!! Fab loss! :D

Don't worry Liz, I'm sure they'll pick up. I've had a slow few weeks too (seems like this one won't be any different!) but I'm just hoping for one 4lb loss in the next few weeks. After all, I'm only 11/12 pounds off a healthy BMI, so maybe in a month or so I won't even be on CD anymore! Last chance to get a big loss really!
Normally low losses lead to a big one so I won't be suprised if you come back soon saying "oh my god 5lb loss!" lol. Even if you don't, it's still coming off! :D xxx
 
Thanks Luci, fingers crossed.
 
Hope you've all been enjoying the sun today :)
I'm quite sure we will all get to our 4th July targets!
Has anyone got any plans for the weekend?

Hey, yeah it's been lovely hasn't it! I hope we all manage to reach our goals, it's 5 weeks tomorrow so we've got plenty of time yet! :)

Well my bf is coming back from uni so we're spending the weekend together, then I won't see him for about 3 weeks because we both have exams :( However, I could lose about half a stone in that time, would be a nice suprise for him lol! What you going to be up to? :)

Last weekend of freedom before constant revision... :cry:

What's everyone else up to? Hope you're all getting on well xxxx
 
Hope you are all having a lovely weekend, im loving this hot weather.

Hope I lose something this week, but happy to just plod on im not rushing myself as I realised I have been putting pressure on myself, every pound is a pound less so will hopefully be a new person by Christmas :)
 
Ditto Witchy - sort of resigned to the fact that it's going to be 2/3 lbs from now on. Every little counts though, just got to keep going with it! xxx

witchy i brought some of those spa wrap thingys from boots yesterday, but couldnt face sitting in cling film whilst watching britains got talent in the heat (sat in garden;)) so ill try them tonight, how long before you noticed a difference?
thanks

I got bandages with mine four very big ones, you can tell after the hour in my kit you got a scrubber to exfoliate your skin, four large bandages, the mud and a pad and tape measure to note the difference. Hope you like them,
 
Afternoon girls hope you're all OK and enjoying this gorgeous weather :)
Witchy I agree this Christmas we'll all be like new people! How exciting is it going to be wearing a slinky party dress? Woo!
After a horrendous week being ill I was advised by KD and CDCounsellor (Linda) on here to move up to 810 for a few days (My own CDC was away for the weekend) I moved up to SS+for a couple of days and I do feel a wee bit better and back to SS'ing today - I was so stressed about having to eat (even though I now realise it was the best thing to do for me at the time) and being ill my head has so messed up about this diet. I couldn't keep the packs down and could barely open my mouth to drink so had very little in the way of water for 3 days - needless to say I'm not expecting anything much from my WI tomorrow :(
 
Aww Vickie hunnie, hope you're okay.
Nothing you can do when you're poorly.
Take care of yourself and if you lose nothing, you always have next week x

Mine are Sanctuary Spa wraps £25 from boots

I have used Naturally Yours which were £80 they come with Aloa bath gel, scrub and two kinds of wrap, one to put on before you truss yourself up like a turkey and one to put on afterwards.

What one are you using and where did you get it (obsessing hehe)

Sarette well done on your loss

Vicky hope you better and on your feet properly soon honey xx

Everyone else hope you had a great weekend xx
 
Can i be a late starter and join the challenge please?

I'm a slow loser so i will set my target at 10lbs. I will be chuffed if i manage that.

Thanks xx

Welcome aboard Lemma xx good luck:)
 
Right, revision done for today! Let me catch up with everyone :)

Vickie - Sorry to hear you're poorly :( I know eating food again can be difficult, but you did the right thing. Getting better and being healthy comes before weight loss! Good luck on the scales tomorrow - if you're worried, you could always ask not to be weighed, and leave it til next week. Up to you :)

Sarette - Well done! You always have fab losses, you're doing really brilliantly. Only a stone to go!! :D

Witchy and Scojos - Glad to hear you're pampering yourselves! I really need to buy some body wraps, you two are going to look super gorgeous by the end of CD!

Lemma - Of course you are more than welcome to join :) I'll add you to the list, you've got about 5 weeks left so if you make 2lbs a week, you can do it easily! Best of luck hun :) xxx
