  • Hi everyone :santa2:

    Hope you all had a great christmas and you had a good time. I have just returned from spending it with my family and have had a great time. I hope if this is mum's last it is as memorable for her as it was for us. It was great just being together and playing silly games etc....

    Anyhow I am reporting a 1LB Loss Thanks Fred Didn't think I could do it but just weighed myself and YAY!!! There you go Puddings I did it :dance:

    I'm looking forward to new year too as we are going away to spend it with friends camping (Thank heavens the snow has gone!!)

    I also had a great shopping trip to Matalan today and it was the first time I have ever been able to buy so many bargains that really fit :j:j I am now smaller than when I left school and I cannot put into words how good it feels :D

    So goal for 2011 not to put 100LB's back on again :rotfl:

    Have a good few more days everyone and see you in 2011 :beer:
    Restarting C25K in 2014 - Week 8 - 1/3 completed

    Need to loose 25lb / 3lb lost so far :(

    Here's this weeks chart - anyone who's not posted I've assumed a STS ;)

    29Dec2010.jpg

    Congratulations to our joint SoTW Alliwantistosave and Brighton Belle .

    Congrats to our SoTM Safesound.

    Also congrats to our inaugural SoTY Eric.

    This weeks quote is an anonymous quote -

    "The best way to lose weight is to eat all you want of everything you don't like"

    Next chart will be the start of the next 5lb challenge so please post below if you wish to take part in this challenge.

    I will also start the N v S challenge so if you'd like to take part please pm me your starting weight for next Wednesday as the starting point so we can calculate the % loss by each team. If you don't want to pm me your starting weight you can still take part in the inbetweeners team where we will take your weight loss/gain each week to calculate the team loss.

    If anyone would like to be pinked (or returned to zero loss) for the new year please let me know. Depending on my mood it may change from being pinked to another colour ;)

    For a bit of fun I thought we could dish out some end of year awards for the lose weight thread - please pm me your nominations for the following catgories - you don't have to vote for all categories if you don't want to:

    Most friendly member
    Most helpful member
    Funniest member
    Most missed member

    Results will be posted next week - if you think I need to add more categories please let me know and I can add them.

    I would like to thank everyone on this thread this year for a fantastically supportive and friendly year. There have been some fantastic loses and some good fun too. Alliwant - I'm so glad you made 100lb this year - you must be so proud. Everyone who posts here is such an inspiration to me and others and it has been a pleasure to be part of such a wonderful group of online friends with something in common.

    I know that many of us have difficulties at the moment - I wish you all strength to cope with things to come - known and unknown, and that we all have many more losses than gains next year.

    Most missed suggs,pet,and every single one that did contribute to this thread but no longer posts or needs it as they have lost their weight, but to each and every one of you thank you.

    The most frustrating member award goes to puds because I can see you as a beautiful person inside with comedy masking everything, you are blessed to be you but you manage to attack yourself more than you are a good to yourself.
