Hi All,
Thank you for setting up the new challenge Brambling. Could you please put me down for a target of 14lb
roblou & monna, thank you for the poems, I can definitely relate to both.
I may have been a bit rubbish at this year's challenges but thank you all for the help and encouragement. Although I didn't manage to lose anything I have at least finished the year the same weight I started it, which is much better than I would've done without you lovely lot.
Wishing the happiest of new years to everyone and best of luck for 2021 xx5 -

I'd like to lose 7 lb to get to a whole number of stones and a BMI of 19.8.
I wish us all a happy new year of being good losers with clothing which is looser not tighter.6 -
