August's Active Actually for the 7lb Club

The_Dragon

Well done to everyone who completed the previous challenges :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 August ! See, it doesn't seem so bad, does it

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 2011 and we will soon be in 7th Heaven

kazwookie

I'm in again, must try hard this month! (going to cheat a little as I have my double impacted wisdom tooth /teeth taken out tomorrw, I doubt I will feel like eating too much.

Have been to the gym today, might go again later having seen what c**p is on telly tonight!!

Good luck to all for August.

Siren1974

Count me in for this month too. Final weigh in for July is on Monday so will be ready for the next 4 weeks. Thanks for the support all through July guys. It's really helped knowing I'm not alone!

I'll weigh in for the last thread when I get chance over this weekend (bit secretive about it so I have to wait for my opportunity.)

trudij

Please can I rejoin? Ive slipped hopelessly into the abyss again, and had been doing ok up till that point !!

Will try to be better this time !!!

kate_pixie

Count me in too. Last month was great with you guys. :T

I'll post my sw tomorrow morning after I've been weighed at the gym. My goal for the month is 7lb loss and to decrease my body fat by 2%.

I'm heading to Silverstone late August and if I'm going to bag myself a racing driver I need to be in good shape :rotfl:

Good luck all xx

ItchyFeet

I'd like to join too please! I lost 11lbs a couple of months ago but have since put 5 back on . I need to lose 3 stones by February on doctor's orders so really need to get going.:eek:

Elle7

Hey everyone. I'd like to join...I need to lose around two stone to be happy, I think. At the moment, my weight just seems to increase or stay the same...

I don't know how I'll turn this around, but I'd like to give it a go

podperson

Hi all, I'd like to join. Was quite happy with lose for last month (well so far, haven't done final weigh in yet!) so hopefully can keep it up. Out of interest what plans do people have? I've been a lot more relaxed with the diet, am just trying to eat more healthily and snack less, but am trying to concentrate on doing more exercise and does seem to be working so far. Am on the 30day shred as well as doing quite a bit of walking - am thinking about possibly adding a swim session or exercise class this month.
