hi, I've tried to read through but got lost,I've read the posts at the front, could someone let me know which post has the challenge you are currently on so I can see if it's something I could do.
I am very, very, very overweight now and need to be held accountable for my plan to change that I think. you're all doing so well - very inspirational (without being over-the-top
) :AA/give up smoking (done)

Hi lobbyludd (a good Northern expression if ever I heard one!), at the moment we are doing the Christmas challenge, if you want to join that you let me know how much you want to lose in the next 9 Friday weigh ins and I will add you to the list. Meanwhile, don't take this the wrong way, but we hope to see less of you from now on in

Morning all and :wave: to the newbies
Thankyou Dragon, for the update, wow 4 stones in 3 wks, thats a great achievement, (wish it was all mine):rotfl:
Todays plan
B: usual hf cereal and fruit
L: sardines on one slice of toast with side salad
bowl of hm veg soup, roast chicken dinner (wont have the roasties or yorkshires)
S: hm smoothie, banana and yoghurt
Ex: shammy dog is back from his holiday at my parents, he goes when hubby and I are both on nightshift. So back to the exercise regime and I'm pleased, have really missed it.
So 5 miles of dog walking today and 10 mins of tummy exercises to start the blitz on the wobbly bits.
Hope everyone has a good day.Success is a journey, not a destination0
