    I would love to join this thread please.
    I am going to stay with my Dad who lives in Melbourne for 6 weeks in the middle of March, so I would like to be able to lose 2 stone by then. I know this is ambitious as it has taken me 6 months to lose a stone and a half, but I will give it a good go. My weight now is 13 stone 6 pound.
    I am currently saving for this trip and I had set myself a minimum target of £2000, as I am not intending to incur any further debt to fund this trip, so this challange fits into my plans perfectly. I managed to save the flight money with the 1 debt vs 100 day challenge part VI.
    The only difference for me will be that I will be aiming to Lose 2 Stone and raise £2000 in 11 Weeks!
    Thank you Mr B. for coming up with this FAB idea. It is so motivating when we work towards challenges with other people with similar goals.:T:T:T

  • Count me in too please!!

    Not done a challenge like this for ages & I so need some focus in my life at the moment. :j:j:j

    ...will help me resist spending money in the sales too..:o

    I started the other day at 9st 10lbs and have lost a grand total of 0.5lbs. By the end of April I'll be 8st 6lbs. :)

    Still not made a decision about the £££ partly because there's a possibility I could be the main wage earner by April. :eek: However prior to that I want to have made overpayments to the mortgage - let's say an overpayment a month till then. It makes me feel so much better!
