  • Can I join too please? I would like to put £2 in for every lb lost. I started my weight loss last Tuesday and have lost 2lb already so have saved my first £4 already.:T
    My mantra is "Never pay full price!" ;)
  • When I googled diets yesterday I came across a boots site, where you type in your age ,height weight and goal. It tells you how many calories to have. How many calories to use up (exersise) how much you should expect to lose each week, and your goal date.

    I want to lose 140lbs in total :rolleyes: , but at the moment I think I will stick with losing a pound a week - and boy am I going to have to get my act together next week as I stayed the same this week :rotfl:

    I will put away a £ per lb but I am also going to bank £5 per week "slimming club" money :D
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D
