Well done to everyone who completed the May challenge :j, and a warm welcome to all newcomers! (if I forget to put you on the first page list - nag at me until I do :rotfl:, oh and you don't have to let anyone know your starting weight unless you really want to!)

Here goes for another half stone challenge! Don't think of how much you'd like/need to lose, just focus on losing those 7lbs for June! See, it doesn't seem so bad, does it :D

This is a useful site for tracking your weight, food etc

http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/account/index.php

You set up your own target by inputting weight, height, how active your lifestyle is, and any medical conditions. Then each day you keep a food diary by inputting what you eat, and also an activity log. The site works out your calories for input (food) and output (activity). The idea is that you keep the input between 500 and 1000 cals below the output, but without dropping below the minimum food cals set by the site for your lifestyle etc. And best of all the calorie count site is free!

If you're interested sign up here and lets help each other :T

Remember - It's 2010 and there is no more IF but WHEN!!!

    Hi de1amo, I've got you for June! I can take this weight OR if you want to weigh in on the 1st and take that as your starting weight - it is up to you, and you don't have to have your weight on the opening post unless you want to :p

    No problem! In fact you don't HAVE to let me and the thread know your weight (unless you want to!!) just the losses :D

    Hi Dragon, sign me up please :D

    I'll have my final pre-wedding weigh in on Thursday so will post final weight for May in the May thread. Just need to decide whether to adjust my calorie limit now and try and lose the rest at a slightly steadier pace or keep on as I am.
