I hear you on that one! It took me ages to post mine up for the whole world to see. Strangely enough, once you have lost a bit and are feeling better, it is rewarding to look back at the gross ones!
(Girls, I am going to put some of mine in there. My original ones are AWFUL. They get better, I hope.)
Oh, I am so in! I need motivation coz there's certainly no movitation (ie: sex and shopping!!) in this house Maybe once I start losing a bit!
Measurements, I'm not sure where exactly to measure bust waist hips - maybe I'll go to a chemist weight loss person and she can show me exactly (iykwim) so I can measure myself at home
Gosh, I really should do this. DD1 had the camera and took some photos of me, not very flattering. Don't have scales, but do have the Wii fit, so I have to exercise to get my weight.
Ok I'm in too... I desperately need people to keep me on track and accountable. Makes me sad I can't do it myself but if I'm going to be healthier and happier I have to do this! Will pm measurements when I can - going to dig up my tape measure.
I am going to also measure my thighs and upper arms just for my own personal record keeping. For me I find them to be a good indicator of weight loss, also I want them to be so much smaller
Ooooohh....can I join too? I'm on holidays from uni at the moment so instead of running to classes I'm sitting around munching on Chrissy leftovers
I will try and dig up a tape measure and email those results Lucy.
I'm certainly not looking forward to seeing what they are!
count me in too... need the motivation and encouragement. I am such a lazy so and so. we got a wii and wii fit for christmas EARLY ... and all I need to do is get it out every day... but do i??? will email you Lucy the measurements and weight. will get the wii fit out this morning to weigh myself...
I'm in..... my goal is ultimately to lose cm's and fit in my size 10 pants again! My weight goal is in my sig (54.7kg), but I'm not really sure how that will pan out since I'd like to build muscle.
My eating... I think I'd like to start eating 3 healthy meals a day. For exercise, my goal is to get OUT more (I do a lot of WiiFit-ing, but I'd like to give Jazz and I some fresh air) and do some early morning walking.
I'd like to do this as something for me, lose weight for ME not just Shel, eat healthy for ME not just Jazz (as I'm bfing), being able to fit into my clothes again so I am comfortable. Even though I don't have a lot to lose, I have some bad eating habits and don't take care of myself like I should so I'm hoping doing it with other people will help me change that

I am a bridesmaid late feb and again in Nov and have a few KG to lose and loads of toning to do. Off to get on the horrid scales and to dig out the measuring tape then i'll email you Lucy.
Lucy I will try email my measurements to you tomorrow! I still don't have a tape measure, or scales this week (I normally use the ones at gym, but their creche is shut all this week). So if I can't get them in by tomorrow, next week it is!
Seriously fretting about the gains I can feel I've made over the Christmas period! I am hanging out for 5th Jan when the creche reopens... In the meantime I am trying not to gorge myself on everything in sight... i can't even go walking as I would have to drag Aidyn along, and dont have a double pram!
Lucy - A question about weight loss tickers. Do we have to start them from the beginning of this New Years challenge? Or can we start them from when we began our fitness/health kick if it was earlier? Cause I started a few months ago.
Ok I have emailed you Lucy and sent my ticker code!
I am 70 kgs would like to be 58kgs. That is about smack bang in the middle of my healthy BMI range and I would be around a size 10-12 but that doesn't concern me as much as just feeling and looking healthier. I look and feel BIG right now, being only 5ft 1 means every kg is noticed. I will be doing it slowly because I am breastfeeding but like you Leash I want to get out every day, even its for a 20 min walk. Both kids in the pram are around 25kgs so that's a great start.
As far as eating goes, I need some ideas for healthy lunches - I tend to skip it and then I eat cr@p later in the day before dinner. I also LOVE juice in the morning with my breakfast and fizzy drinks with dinner. Maybe I should get some diet cordial and mineral water and have that so I don't feel like I'm missing out! Ugh. Thinking aloud here, bear with me!
