    It was rather painful, but I didn't half lose weight!! :rotfl:

    Lucy - great idea, see if you can get him convinced on that one! Thankfully my OH is as nutty about mountain biking as I am (if not more!) so I'm never short of someone to spur me on between him and all the other lads I ride with. Plus they're all fitter than me so I have to work doubly hard to keep up with them.

    DON'T EAT PINEAPPLE!!!!

    Great way of losing weight, but it's just not healthy. All fruit is good though.

    Oh what the hell, I have been trying to lose weight for ages now..

    I will try and lose 21lbs as it seems to be the amount to lose. In all honesty i am 10stone 4lbs now and would love to be just under the 9stone mark. Like toto i am on the smaller side (actually toto I pictured you to be quite tall, funny how you have a picture of people in your mind!)

    I love SW but let my membership lapse due to lack of funds and time... But I will try and follow the diet.

    I am doing Race for Life in July so need to start my exercise... I even got as far as putting my gear out last night, but I took my daughter to the airport at two and have not been to bed since.

    today I have/will eat - 1 piece toast (naughty white with butter)! - breakfast

    1 banana - snack

    Spag bol (from last nights tea) - lunch

    minted lamb chops, mashed potatoes and peas for tea.

    (maybe a weetabix somewhere inbetween)

    Lots of coffee to keep me awake. Will start in earnest tomorrow - and aim to get up and go for a run in the morning.

    Count me in!!! As it stands I am 12 stone 12... I'd like to get down to about 12 stone but whether that'd be possible I'd very much doubt it as I don't get chance to exercise but I have got my race for life coming up.....

    Can I join your challenge too? :D

    I have been doing Weightwatchers since the end of January and lost 47.5lbs :j not too much more to go,well,a stone or 2,but feel in need of a challenge to keep me on track ;)
    I have the unfortunate problem of not being able to eat much fruit and veg (Crohn's disease) and find losing weight really difficult,when I'm hungry i can't just go and grab an apple :mad: but iced gems,finger of fudge and quavers sort me out instead ;)
    I belong to a health club (mother pays ;) ) and go to the aquafit,yoga and LBT classes every week,i also swim and use the gym twice a week,but this has slowed the weight loss :mad:
    So come on girls,we can BEAT Lenny,can't we!!:j

    Welcome aboard sammy, it is funny how we picture people, I'm not tall at all, I'm 5ft 3. I have the frame of a kid though, well, I did before I stuck an extra 2 stone of chocolate and donuts all over it:rotfl:
