Loose 3 stone in 6 months Challenge!! :)

[octoberbride]

Hi Everyone

Ive decided to set up a challenge for those wanting (or in my case having) to loose 3 stone by October 2013

I Have worked out for the next 25 weeks with an average weight loss of 2lbs a week will def get us there!

So pop on in and sign up... let me know your weigh in day and I'll make different wee badges for motivation along the way eg slimmer of the week, most consistent, most enthusiastic etc just a bit of fun

So tell me a bit about yourself too, type of diet etc and so on...

Ill Begin

As im sure you can guess by my name im due to get married in October, but just after giving birth to my beautiful little boy, ive put on 3 stone through pregnancy and really need to return to my original weight in order to fit my fabulous dress! Im doing the old style vintage points as that is what really helped me loose the pregnancy pounds 4 years ago after my first beautiful son!!

The thought of a bikini in 6 months time petrifies me... so no ifs maybes about it - I GOTTA DO THIS and a challenge will def keep me on my toes!!

My weigh in day will be a Monday - this is my first weigh in day this monday coming and my starting weight in 13st 9 and 5ft 8

Who is in!! xx
