Summer challenge 2015!

It is 11 weeks and 4 days until the official start of summer on Sunday the 21st of June. I thought I'd start a summer challenge for those who want to stay on track for summer. Just add your name and the amount you want to lose to the list.

Toujours 18 lbs to lose (0lbs lost - 18 lbs to go)

[Tanwen]

Whoo, elsbels, whereabouts are you )? I can't wait
Yeah, last year we went on the beginning of June and it was lovely, but I'd like it to be proper summer-y (hot hot hooot ), so this year we decided to go in July ).

 

[elsbels]

We're in a villa in montcarapacho. Near Faro it is. It's lovely here. Where are you going?

 

[Tanwen]

Aaawh, lovely ! I looked up some pics, it looks gorgeous!!! We're flying to Faro, going somewhere to Algarve ) I can't wait ).
My next weighing is gonna be on Thursday, we'll see how much I've lost this week )..

 

[Toujours]

Holidays are really motivating for weight loss.
Thinking about wearing nice clothes when I go away days in the summer is my motivation, don't want to be hiding behind baggy clothes like I was last year.

 

[Tanwen]

That's exactly what I've been thinking ).. Well girlies, let's do it )! We have about 80 days to go !!

And happy Easter to everyone !

[elsbels]

80 days! Quite doable I think - hope everyone's had a lovely Easter Sunday !!

 

[Tanwen]

Hey ladies, how are you doing ?
I have my weighing tomorrow, not sure if I'm gonna have a good week, it's TOTM and I feel bloated and awful. Still 100% on plan, just don't feel like my body's not losing weight right now . How did you survive Easter?
x

 

[Toujours]

Aw I know the feeling, but most of the times when I have felt like that I have still lost weight. Well done for staying on plan!
Easter didn't go too well for me, chocolate is my biggest weakness and I ended up having a 5 pound gain even though I still ate normal portion sizes and went to the gym. Just shows how bad snacking and chocolate can be. :cry:
I've had a good week this week though and had a sneaky weigh in and 3 pounds of that gain have gone. This warmer weather seems to be keeping me on track.

 

[elsbels]

4.8lbs on for me during my holiday! Clawing it back hopefully by next official weigh in on Tuesday. It's ok to have the occasional blow out as long as it's not a long term one!! That's what I'm telling myself anyway!!

 

[CatA]

Oooh can I join! Just set myself a 16lb target for Summer so may as well put it here I pigged out bbig time over Easter and the week before was my daughters 5th birthday so lots of cake and treats. Somehow I managed to only put on 0.8lb total across the 2 weeks..miracle!

Day 1 back on track for me so only time will tell.

Feeling paranoid that the 0.8lb gain over Easter was a fluke and it will all appear this weekend lol

Hi there!

I've decided to weigh tomorrow and take my last weigh as it was on Thursday not what I was before my holiday. 14 lbs will get me down to 10st. Bit ambitious but got to aim high!!
