    I am definitely in for getting a racing driver. What's the plan? Chasing the car with a giant net? :P

    Didn't get to weigh myself this morning, the bathroom was engaged allll morning. Had to get dressed to go downstairs before my bladder burst, lol. I'll weigh again tomorrow...should be doing well calorie wise today, but the temptation is always the takeaways at night...

    Ah yes, with us it is the temptation of a pizza at the weekend (along with beer/cider/wine/crisps/garlic bread!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:)

    Lol great idea Elle. Currently my plan is "Go to Silverstone....Look awesome" :rotfl:Surely that will work right? :p

    Dragon I posted on the end of July's thread, but just incase you don't see it, can you put me down for a sw of 174lb.

    Cheer all, see you in August xx

  • Hey Dragon!
    Can you count me in again for August please? July was a bit of a non-starter, didn't gain, but didn't lose either :undecided
    Something about the fact that August 1st starts on a Monday makes it an IDEAL date for a fresh start, so I'll be giving the Dukan diet my best shot, and going to Zumba classes weekly.

    All the best of luck for Auguest everyone!!

    Please add me too Dragon :D I weigh in on a Monday morning as that usually shocks me into being good for the week. My problem is sitting at desk job bored all week - wanting to snack / eat all day. Last Monday was 72.3 kg so will see what this Monday is and that will be 1st August :D

    Hi Dragon and everyone

    My starting weight for August is 200lbs.

    Typical. Did so much want to start this thread under the 200lbs mark but nothing would shift another lb that last week!

    Hey ho never mind nice new thread to start trying again.

    200lbs is 14st 4lbs so my personal mini target this month is to get below 14st.

    See you all next week - enjoy the sunshine

    Love Ma

    Can I join in please - I have struggled to shift the last stone since having my 4th baby just under 3 years ago (2 babies in 2 years really screwed me). I will weigh myself in a little while to see what my start weight is. We are off on holiday in the middle of the month so I will try and be really good.

    Good luck everyone

    Well my July weight ended up staying the same so I really need to get myself sorted for August. I thought I'd been quite good but I think I snack more than I realise in the evenings so will get back to keeping my diet diary written up.
    Dragon - can you put me down for 147.5lb sw please
