    Hellooo! Hoping you will welcome someone new. I am desperate for some support for my weight loss journey. I can't afford SW and have genuinely considered making myself certificates #embarrassing.

    I may have joined a bit late for the quarter 2 challenge but my start weight is 80kg, I am now 78kg and my overall goal is 55ish. In the new Q3 thread I will come up with a more short term goal. <3

    Of course you are welcome and I'm sure Brambling would add you to the "register" for this quarter too.  Do you want to give a target to the end of June?

    Thank-you both! Thank goodness I've found you! I shall say 75kg for end June, hopefully that's equally challenging and achievable :D

    So that's a target of a 3 kg loss by the end of June (unless you want to say it is a target 5 kg loss for the quarter with 2 kg already achieved).  You'll see we get a halo emoji for each unit lost.

    I work in pounds (can count more for the same actual weight loss!).  Started the quarter at 8 st 11 lb and lost 4 lb so far.  I have been much, much heavier but feel best at about the 8 st 2 lb mark.

    Very well done you! :)
