Team 7 - Fat Fighters (Official team thread)

I don't know where Cyprusbride is this week but have posted our result for last week without her......if I don't hear from her by Sunday night, I think we may need to find another member who wants to be part of the team as we need to have 6 members......if anyone disagrees please let me know.

Here's how the results show so far - seems a lot of team were struggling last week. Lets make week 6 a good one eh?

I'll have WI at lunchtime, so will start the week 6 table then....fingers crossed - think I've lost :)

WEEK 5 - TEAM CHALLENGE (18 Sep 08)
2.20% Purple Ronnies (team 11) - 4 results
1.90% The Shrinking Violets (team 10) - 6 results
1.57% Belly Busters (team 4) - I think as 1 result was a gain....
0.40% Fat Fighters (team 7) - 3 results
0.30% Simply the Best (team 3) - 4 results
0.00% Leah's Lightweights (team 1) - no results this week

Woo hoo - so pleased with myself.

As you know, I didn't have a WI last Saturday as I was on holidays and my CDC is away this week too, so weighed myself on my scales (which is within .1 of her one) in my clothes and weight 11.03, so that's 2lbs down this week - I'm well chuffed! :D

Have been busy today making a cake - posted result in diary http://www.minimins.com/members-only-diaries/55722-minz-diary-4.html

Have also started week 6 below:

Haven't heard from anyone so will request a new member in place of Cyprusbride who hasn't been on for over a week and hasn't replied to PMs either......is everyone else still on board please?
 
RuthG from Coventry is joining Fat Fighters. I'm sure she'll pop by to say hi shortly and give us her current weight and WI day for week 6.

Well done Angela1 on a 2nd star performance last week - pat yourself on the back. Nice one.

How did you get on today Mushette?

Heyya! Lost 4.5lbs!
 
Hi all! Sorry I haven't replied sooner, i was on a late shift yesterday, this is the first chance i've had to reply!

Well, I'm Ruth, form Coventry, I'm 28 and I'm about to re start CD tomorrow. I'm being weighed tonight, so I will let you know my stats then, but I do have approx 7 stone to lose :sign0007: I started CD in March, lost almost 2 stone in 6 weeks, however i ruptured a disc in my spine, and that really hindered things with CD. But I'm determined now, especially as I am part of a team effort, i must do my bit!

Here's hoping I'll be able to do it this time!

PS, how does this actually work?
 
How on earth did i get a star? I only lost 2 1/2 lbs?!

Don't say only - you still had the highest % loss of the 3 results we had last week - so well done!

Heyya! Lost 4.5lbs!

Well done Mushette - what a brilliant loss - Go Girl!

PS, how does this actually work?

Welcome again to the team - I'm sure you'll do great! (sorry about your back hassles - yeowch!). How it works is that each team member post their weekly WI result (before/after/lbs lost) by Thursday evening on this thread, and I convert it to lbs and a % loss e.g. for my result below, it's 2 / 159 x 100 = 1.26%. On Thursday, I submit our team result to the Team Challenge weekly result thread (started each Thursday on the 'Cambridge Diet forum'). Given that you have your first WI this week, we won't include your before/after/% figures until next week but you're still on the team. Good luck with WI and your CD journey.

Thanks Minz!
 
Well it's my first day back today, I feel so determined, especially as I feel as if I'm accountable to this group, so I must do it! I know once I've got this week over with it'll be fine!
 
Hi Ruth,

Just checking in over lunch......getting the first week over with is great as you know you're into it AND you've had a great loss (which I'm sure you will given your determination).

Great idea having a mini goal for 18 November - What graduation is it?
 
Its my nurse training graduation. I finished it in Feb, but they only have the ceremonies in November. I ordered my cap and gown a couple of weeks ago, I'm so excited about it. Hoping to have lost 2 stone by then, which I know is acheivable!

Oooh how exciting - Congratulations! Lucky with the design of graduation gowns, it will still fit when you lose all that weight :) Great to have something like that to look forward to. You'll easily lose 2 stone in just under 8 weeks.

Just back from picking up my leather jacket (got it cleaned) which hasn't fit me in years......and is now actually a bit loose. Result! I love the rediscovery of clothes on this diet as I'd gotten used to wearing the same stuff all the time (refusing to buy in bigger sizes), so it's like having a new wardrobe, with none of the cost!
 
Its fab isn't it! I chucked a load of my thinner clothes away, as i need the motivation of spending my husbands money on new thinner clothes, lol!
 
Ruth - love the quotes in your signature, especially the one about sunny days - God knows, we've had precious few of those in Dublin lol

Angela1 & Caress - how did WIs go today?
