    I dont think my car would make it that far Toto, to be honest.

    Besides, I wouldnt have anything to wear to a really posh wedding :o

  • Morning all.

    Right I had my weigh in last night and stayed the same again :mad: Atlhough it is that time of the month, so I'm not to worried.

    However, my class leader did mention something that I thought would work here.....

    Apparently there are 15 weeks left until Christmas :eek: Or 11 weeks until the party season starts :eek: :eek: . Which translates as 11 weeks to lose as much weight as you can. He is going to do a pledge system. Where we all pledge what we are going to loose and then at the christmas party we find out if we actually managed it.

    So does anyone fancy giving it a go?? I've happy to keep a list of everyone's pledges and I am sure we can manage a Christmas Party!!

    I thought it might help kick start a few of us, I would love to buy my first little black dress this Christmas (Cheaply of course!!)

    Let me know what you think xx :D

    I'm up for that Lucy, whilst I haven't really lost much weight, I also haven't put any on, so I think being part of a diet thread really works for me!

    Maybe we could start a new thread as this one technically comes to an end when Lenny gets back, which could be any day now? Perhaps to keep it debt related, we should also pledge an amount to pay off too?

  • Sounds like a wonderful idea. I've been struggling so to keep this going would be a great idea.

    Count me in :beer:

    I assume Lenny will miss Blackpool so the new challenge could start when he comes home :rolleyes:

    We mustn't forget to keep the new thread debt related like this one though, or it'll get moved.

    That's a great idea, I'll join. Who's going to start the new thread? I've been spectacularly awful at keeping everyone up to date, so time for someone else to take over.

    I will join too, as Mrs S said, I have been spectacularly bad at this (although I did weigh myself this morning and overall I have lost the grand total of one pound) but I haven't gained either.

    Maybe we could have a 'lose lbs and £'s by xmas' thread......

    We could start it on Monday morning when everyone's hangovers have subsided!
