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 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.
Count me In :D
I need to loose a few kilo's
I will follow suit as I am not sure how it works ..
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.
Next Monday works fine for me :)
Next Monday is good for me too!
Count me in too. I haven't done much since our Christmas challenge. Next Monday is fine and I like the idea of 3x4 weeks. I Hope to stick with it!
*deep breath in*
I'm in.
OK great! I will put together a start thread in the next couple of days and will link it here. :)
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 :D
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.
We don't even have a set of scales...does wii Fit count? :lol:
I definitely need motivation..someone here to keep smacking my hand away from blocks of chocolate and biscuits would be great..but i can settle for a BB thread!
So I have weighed myself on the wii fit and as expected was heavier then I hoped and heavier then I was when I had my last baby (in which I put on 30kilos during pregnancy) I so need this thread.
So weight is done how do we measure? And do we submit it to you krysalyss via a PM?
So I need to loose 10kilos.
Yep, I'm in!
I was talking to someone else the other day about doing a thread on Wii Fit PLUS activities - maybe we could do it in conjunction with this? Like, everyone who has it, we can encourage each other on the different activities, post new personal records, have mini competitions, that sort of thing - any interest?
Oohh this sounds interesting to me (been a bit slack on the wii fit lately :()... I think I'm in for the the first 4 weeks of the challenge too.:
Sounds great Berenice. We have Wii Fit but it hardly ever comes out of the box! Mini comps would be great to provide some motivation!
Alrighty, I've set up at thread here - this is gonna be so much fun!
im in.. need some motivation and this is just the thing :D
Ok lets see if i can stick around longer than the last times. starting monday next are we???
I am in!
I need to get back into it.
Keen to start next Monday too.
ETA- WE dont have a Wii fit.
Nah me either Bella.
I would love to join in!
I am excited now, I have just joined up for Berenice's wii fit comp too :)
I need to lose 10kgs before we start trying for our second bub and we want to start trying soon so I better get started....
wooo hooo monday is teh day..
all good im gonna be a good girl..
what is everyone going to do?
diet exercise
both
I would love to join too. I got lots of weights to lose. :(
count me in!
i'm currently you-know-whating-myself because DS starts swimming lessons tomorrow. i have to get into a pool. first time in about 7 or 8 years :o
Yeah the wii fit thing sounds like a good idea for motivation. I pulled it out yesterday for the firsttime in months and did 46mins of exercise and then 30mins first thing this morning.
sloane that reminds me I have to enrol my DD for this term.

kawazuki I am doing both. Diet and exercise. Started my healthy eating plan yesterday and went really well. However this morning I am already struggling. I find the first few days the hardest and when I usually fall off the band wagon. If I can just keep going for a week or two I should be right. FX this plan sticks long enough to make a difference.
I'm in too - seeing that I gained some weight over Easter! I need a kick up the bottom to get through the colder months too.
Woo hoo that so many people are keen to join. Don't forget to send me the details before Monday and I can add everyone into the list. I won't add before I get the details as last time there were lots of people I added that didn't actually join in the end. I am really excited!
What details should we send you Krysalyss? Obviously weight, anything else?
Thanks so much for doing this. Even though I dont have a Wii I am still going to do other exercise. :)
Oh, this is the happening thread, lol!! Just posted int he other to say I am in too. EEEKKKK!!!! So need to lose weight though. And soooo need some motivation and a kick up the butt!
So Krys, what will we measure? Bust, waist, hips? Or just waist? And weight as well? If we're doing that bit, lol!
Measure chest, tummy (across belly button) and hips. and then weight in kg.
All details on the other thread. I posted the link but here it is again for anyone who didn't see it

Just checking
Can you join without a Wii ?
Yep the wii challenge is separate - just and extra motivation for those of us in this challenge :)
