    I'd love to join you all please - I really need some accountability. 

    Have just weighed this morning and could do with losing at least three stones!

    I'd like to start with a goal of 10lb this quarter.

    Hello everyone and thanks for the thread Brambling.

    I have weighed myself this morning and I'd like to join with a target of losing 7lbs this quarter please. 

    I had a replacement knee op that I had to lose 3 stone for in 2023 which I kept off so that I could have the other knee done in 2024 but the weight is starting to creep back up. I'll set Thursday as my weigh day as I've weighed myself today.

    Another year, another attempt to lose the excess lard! @Brambling please put me down for 12lbs this quarter.

    I'm going to try and get down so far, maintain it for a bit, then try and lose the last 7lbs. I keep regaining the weight. I was doing really well until October then I just lost motivation and it's all come back on! Argh!!!

    I've put on at least 6lbs over December and really feeling unfit now :-( Doing Dry January so hopefully that will help.

    Hope you all have a successful 2025! 💪

    Please count me in. 

    I haven't weighed myself because I haven't got out of bed yet this year! 😁
    Did you eventually get up? :)
