New 4/8/12 week challenge?

**krysalyss** · April 12th, 2010, 09:38 AM

Is anyone keen to do another weight loss challenge? We have done 12 week ones in the past but could always do a shorter one.
Am happy to manage the thread if anyone is keen.
I really need another kick start and am determined to lose 12 kgs.

I would be interested. Don't know how it works, but I really need to do something about my post-baby weight!

Basically you put your weight and cms in to the thread manager and every week you send them your updated figures and they put up everyones % and cms lost. So noone really sees your actual weight or cms just what you have lost. The challenge usually lasts for 12 weeks and we can set a mini-challenge goal each week to help motivation. My original weight loss was really kicked off by a 12 week challenge so I am hoping for another boost.

Yup, I'd be interested

Count me in. I won't get on the scales to start with but as I know I will be devastated with the results lol but I can do measurements. I want to get down to 70kilos before we start IVF and I estimate I am 80 or a fraction more. I am more interested in the short term weight loss to start with as I haven't stayed around for the whole 12weeks in the past.

We can break it into 3 x 4 week sections if you like. Then you only have to commit to one at a time.

I'll be in, need to lose some more weight before we start trying for another bub.

Ooh me. The three four week lots sound great. We are in Darwin while DH does some training so all our stuff is in storage as well as the scales....I'm sure I can find somewhere to weigh in

I think I'm in a bit of denial about the weight thing....though going from somewhere with no humidity to somewhere with lots has certainly made me notice.

Oh I'm definitely in!!! Since stopping weight watchers cos of the $$$ my weight gain has been horriffic! I would love the support and accountabilty of a challenge but very nervous to step on those scales!

Would you guys prefer to start next Monday? or the one after? If everyone sends their details to me by Mondays I can post them on Tuesdays. The only exception will be the first week because everyone will be sending their starting details.
