[vickydink]

Hey everyone!

Here we go again, all set for Christmas! We have all done so well on the halloween challenge, lets keep it up and get more off so we can treat ourselves at Christmas

I will start us off and say i want to be losing 11lb to get me to 9stone by Xmas. Deadline: 20th December which is 7 weeks off just over!

hiya i am in, my xmas ticker says i want to lose 21lbs by xmas that started in sept, so from now put me down for 13lbs.
i cant believe christmas is sooo close, it goes so quick lol i love christmas he he i am like an over excited kid.

 

[Lady Marmalade]

Ooh, my first Challenge - eek! Quite excited/nervous. Can I do this?

I'm going to aim for 12lbs by the 21st (monday is my usual WI), this will take me to roughly the weight I was before I started the chemo and piled on all the weight so it will be quite a significant milestone. I should also be able to fit into That Dress - may even wear it on Christmas day!

I feel all motivated again now, like the first day all over again! Good luck everyone!

I'm already on a Christmas challenge, so I'll say the same as that one (already have my ticker and everything ) If I reach that before then, then I'll add some on. Positive thinking and all that!

hey, i made a mistake, sorry could you put me down for 8lbs please not 13, i was looking at the wrong number on my ticker lol
when does this start from cause it was m WI today and i have lost 2.4lbs so only 5.4lbs to go now? or are we starting from next weeks WI?

 

[Lady Marmalade]

I'm starting from my last WI on Monday, is that right?

I hope I haven't set my goal too high, but I kind of wanted a really tough challenge in the hopes that I would rise to it. I know the way my mind works, and if I think "oh I only have to lose 1lb this week" then I will eat accordingly, take my foot off the gas on the exercise front and damn well lose only 1lb!

Anyway it was my Tesco Diets WI this morning (annoyingly I can't change the WI day to my 'real' WI, which was the true start of my diet) and I've lost 3lb since Monday. I really don't know whether to update my stats, count it toward this challenge or what, it is so confusing having two WIs! Dunno if it will stay off by Monday too as I tend to eat more and exercise less at weekends.

Well if I can keep it off come Monday then that's 1/4 of the way there already, and 9lbs in 7 weeks seems a lot more doable...

Hi serafyn! Good to see you back fighting fit and ready to kick this challenge up the backside!!
STS for me this week although I'm not really surprised as its TOTM and I've been picking loads! Going to the gym mon, tues & wed this week so hopefully that'll do some damage on the scales next week!
Good luck to everyone else on their first weigh in on this challenge - the thought of christmas and parties and dresses is always very motivating don't you think
