    Ok we have 5 Southerners and 3 Northerners.

    Any more Northerners (or Southerners/Easterners/Westerners who wish to declare Northern ancestry)???

    Hello!

    Hope you all had good weekends! :)
    Mine was lovely but a disaster food-wise - fry up, takeaway, ice cream, etc. But we went for lots of lovely walks along the seafront :)


    alliwant - Yeah hopefully Davina will turn up soon. I mentioned to a friend that I was going to try it and she has one of her other dvds so i am borrowing that too :)

    oops sorry 'bout that, must have been a slip of the keyboard:whistle:

    Does anybody have an objection to %age lost rather than simple lbs lost, (sort of biggest loser style) : team start weight compared to team end weight? ... It would involve telling the referree (fredsnail) your individual weight at the start and end of the challenge so she can add them together to make a team weight but I guess anybody a bit shy could pm their individual weight if they prefer?

    This would also mean that the teams don't need to be the same size :-)


    I think that (and please correct me if am wrong) that the North team are: fellpony, beanielou, mazza and myself
    (are we called the Buckfast Beauties or can you think of a better teamname?)

    Is there anybody else from 'oop North that wants to join the winning team? - particularly newbies / lurkers? All welcome - the more the merrier.
    Just a bit of fun and a little extra weight-loss motivation for a few weeks:D
