Mr B can you change my start date to 2nd January please? so ending on 2nd May - with Dr Dragon being home this is not a good time to start!

Hi,

This sounds like a great idea, please count me in. I will start after new year and will weigh in then. My hubby has said he will pay for 12 weeks slimming world membership and I will be joining on 6th Jan which should help and I will be going to the gym 2-3 times a week all being well (membership already paid until about May I think).

I am going to loose weight by cutting down on the alcohol (aiming to be alcohol free from 2nd Jan for a month), by doing slimming world (cutting right back on the chocolate, biscuits and cake and filling up on healthy stuff) and doing more (some) exercise.

I am going to make money by using cashback sites and selling stuff on Ebay. I will be having a good think about other things I could do and will be watching with interest for ideas.

All the best.
Jane

Evening all, just stumbled across this thread after being AWOL from MSE for several months... Just thinking that I could do with something to focus my mind and bingo, here you all are so hope you don't mind if I barge in and join you all?

On 20th Dec I was 14st 8lb and on 20th April I'm going on holiday, if I can be 12st 8lb I'll be very, very happy. The bikini might even get dragged out! I'm going for the two grand too. I have so much stuff to list for sale it's not even funny, so if you'll have me I'm in.

Good luck everyone!

Hello, count me in too - I'll be starting on the 29th, when I get back home to a pair of scales and will hopefully have shifted my lurgy that has struck me down over Christmas Not sure how I'll raise £2k, and to be honest, need money for moving house, so I'll plan on having £2k going out from my normal account into a variety of savings/spends, will keep track of it on one of my many spreadsheets

Might have to plan to return some of the probably not that goodies I've been buying online in the sales.......so that I have "spare" cash to start the 'savings'!!

Love the chart Mr B. although it will be a few days until I brave the scales again.:D

Updates made as requested. Next issue of list will be this time tomorrow. Good luck with burning that fat and earning that cash.

This is a great idea - thanks Mr Bloater. I'd like to join too. My weight on 23rd December was 12 7lb ( I lost 1.5 stone last summer and then remained static since then) so am aiming for 10 stone 7lb. No chance of hitting the money target but I shall do what I can! I'm hoping joining this thread will inspire me to make more of an effort. Best wishes to everyone out there.

As I think at least part of my problem is portion control, I am pleased to say that tonight, I didn't have the same amount of spuds as my much more active OH. This is progress.

Also sold a dvd for 4 pounds so I am off to a start on that front as well.

Thanks for doing the chart Mr B, I wasn't too good yesterday and Christmas Day but really feel ready to start properly today. I am just enjoying my second cup of coffee then I am going for a walk/ run- looks lovely out there today! I think that I am going to make Fridays my weigh in day.

The 2k has hit a slight snag in that I have a property I let out and have received a list of works that need doing in it so will need to see how much that will set me back before I can work out if I can save anything in Jan...

Going to sit down later and work out how to get some extra pennies coming in... good luck everyone!!
