I just have to have a little woohoo, I am going to a Hawaiin 21st party tonight, so I went to figure out what I was wearing and got out my boardshorts and they are WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY to big for me, I have had to pin them at the front where the buton and fly are and there is an over lap of 14cms, and then they still gap at the back. It is so exciting to put something on that is miles too big!!
Just popping in to say well done ladies. I know I started the challenge, but I backed out due to have a break from the forum and other things. Anyway I did keep on going with improving my lifestyle etc. I have had my ups and downs, but so far I have lost over 8kg!! So I feeling pretty good and have bought my first size 14 pair of jeans in aaaggggeeesss. They do feel tight, but apparently that is the way they are meant to be worn, my style is still back in the early 90's super loose era I find I try to get by with what I have, then it just gets too lose, so I have to go out and buy a few pieces. I am still quite lumpy, so it is still loose tops for now, I have about 17kg to go, even though just another 5 would be nice.
Once again great work ladies, you should all be so proud
Don't forget that tomorrow is the final official day of the challenge and I need you all to weigh and measure and send me the details via PM girls please.....thanks!
While not great - I've still lost some kilos from my initial weight, and the tape measure shows I'm still shrinking, which is wonderful. Still got some way to go, but I'm on the right track.
Well I have sent mine in. I am happy with them. Not ecstatic but happy. I think it is good I havent just given up and gone back to old eating and activity habits like I always have. Although I have lost large amounts of weight previously it has always been due to factors other than myself (eg. when I lived in Asia, or worked in a really active job) but this time I am doing it despite having a sedentary job, having access to all of my favourite foods, and having a really stressful work environment which would usually make me run to the chocolate.
I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has also participated as that has been a big part of my success. I think you are all doing great whether you have lost a little or a lot. Congratulations on finising right to the end! Hope that you can all continue on our shrinking journey. I definitely intend to stick around in an ongoing thread.
Well I gain 100g this week but have lost cms, so have to be happy about that.
I just wanted to say also that it has been great having the support and I believe it has been a big part of my success this time and even though I'm having to do it slowly because I'm b/fing I know that I have made a great choice for life and will not go back to my old ways.
So thanks lovely ladies for helping me on this journey .
thank you for all being so supportive for me in the last few weeks...even if I havent posted iA have read the previous posts and its so heart warm to know that a place like BB has so many woman on it who are there for each other.
Will Pm my details in and look forward to spending the rest of my finding me journey in the spin off thread with you all
Well, I'm not so happy with my final result, but at least I've lost something, and not gained. It's WAAAYYY off what I had aimed to lose and I'm struggling with keeping on track, but I'm really trying. Thankyou everyone for the encouragment and support
Well done to those of you who have gotten to your goals, or are well on your way, you are all doing such a great job!!
Hi girls, I'd like to thank you all and especially you Lucy for all your hard work.
Unfortunately I fell off the wagon after the bush fires down here and have been struggling with depression since. Ds also started kinder, I thought I was going to have more time???? WRONG!!! Don't know who I was kidding with that one....I understand why people say it's a tough year.
I need to get started again, I really want to be successful as well as need to be and I am quite dissapointed in myself cause I thought I was going to do it. So if there is a thread where people are going I might check in from time to time. I still lost 3 kgs, but cms crept back on I have'nt measured, but can feel it in my clothes.
Amnyway thanks again and I'm looking forward to seeing all your good results.
