Hi all
I promised myself that I would be a size 12 by the time I went back to work after my maternity leave, well that hasn't happened and I have fluctuated around the same weight for nearly 6 months now so I have set myself a new, smaller goal. 1 stone by Xmas. I have 10 weeks so thats just over 1lb per week. Easily doable for someone of a BMI of over 28, eeek.
I thought that if I put it out there and tell people I am doing it then it'll make it harder to ignore and also I have a newly found feeling of motivation.
Who's with me? If you are up for it let me know and I'll update below. I will weigh in on Monday's as thats the night my hubby goes to chub club and also it limits my binging at the weekend!
(Once interest is generated I will ask the mods to move this post to the Life section so if you cannot find this that's where it is)

Thanks. I don't think you should do it either.
Maybe you could have fun gaining a stone though...

Hello, I joined the new year diet thread as well.. And I'm still plodding along trying to get the rest of this weight off. Since I started exercising a month ago I've been stuck at the same weight. It hasn't budged at all! But I'm now comfortably in a size 14..and I've lost 63 lbs since sept '11.. So my goal is only 5 lbs by the 14th December when I travel home to the Uk for Christmas! Can't wait!!! I weighed myself this morning 187lbs (I'm tall ) so I want to be 182 lbs before I fly home .. Good luck girls x

Thats not too bad. It all depends how tall you are, if you are 3 foot tall then its an issue but anything between 5 and 5 and a half foot is just a little extra chub (like me ). We'll all get there together.
