Old Style Weight Loss Challenge- 3rd Quarter 2023

Hi All

Welcome to the Old Style Weight Loss thread for quarter three 2023   :) where has the year gone!

Please feel free to start posting your weight loss goals for the next challenge which will run from the 1st July until the 30th September

You do not have to submit a loss or gain for the first week as it's our starting week, you can post your first loss or gain the week after on a day of your choice.

As usual everyone is welcome - we support and encourage, we don't judge and importantly that includes being kind to ourselves   <3   All hints and tips welcomed especially during the current time when we may be reaching for food or aren't able to buy our usual healthier choices.  

I'm sure ideas about cheap healthy meals and free exercise ideas will be welcomed at the moment 

Please send me your targets if you are setting one in either lbs or kgs whatever suits you but only in increments of 1/2 or 1  -  There is no requirement to provide a target or weekly weight ins and no one has to justify if they chose not to weigh in for any period of time

Anyone can join the challenge at any point over the next 3 months    :)

All aboard and Good Luck   <3
