    have remained at 240lbs over the Xmas period. Start walking again tomorrow and am planning a 20 mile along the Ridgeway on Sunday....I will try NOT to include lunch at a Pub!
    If I take a flask of my favourite Hazlenut coffee it may stop me wanting food.

    Intention is to continue losing size through excercise ( now down 3 belt notches) and to get rid of at least 2lb nett each month.....not much I know but I cant stand skinny men and never want to be one!

    Louise, can you let go of my balls now !:eek:
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !

    yes, but that is still nearly 2 stone in a year (and at least 2 belt notches), so WILL be an excellent achievement.

    And eeeeuuuwwwwwwwwwww to skinny men !!!!!

    Well I jumped on the scales this morning (and I was a pound down on 4 days ago :j) so now I know the awful truth :eek:.

    Day 1 and I will try and eat less and get some exercise :A

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    I'm getting on the scales tomorrow to re-start. I've cleared the fridge of a few bits that were hanging around, I'm stepping the water up today and will step forward to join the ranks proper tomorrow :D

    Here we go folks........

    I have dusted off the spreadsheet weightloss tracker, given it a new spring makeover and reset the dates.

    The end of this 10 week challenge leads us up to 13th March when we should be seeing daffodils and crocuses so I have named this challenge the:
    Spring Weighloss Challenge
    spring+flowers%5B11%5D
    So lets start the new year with our targets.......

    I am serously needing to lose a whole stone to get back to my target and MrJ needs to lose 6lb so I have added that to the tracker. Could everyone kindly check the tracker in post 1 as I am totally lost off with losses to date and targets.

    I am looking forward to a healthier and lighter 2011......this decade is going to be fantastic!!!!!
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    thankyou for doing this again Lou xx

    Please put me down for 25 pounds in the next 10 weeks. If I stay on CD I should surpass that but it's much harder to get back on than to start the very first time which is why I'm being a little more conservative than normal. However, I have worked out that to lose another 3.5 stone by my birthday in May I need to lose 2.5 pounds a week so that ties in nicely with my goal for the next 10 weeks. I'm also more than likely going to do a slightly higher plan on CD than I did for the first 6 stone because whilst it drops off at 5 and 6 a week there are a couple of side effects that I don't want to continue so am going to do the 810 plan I think to start with.

    Good luck everyone ! :D
