    New 4/8/12 week challenge?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    We don't even have a set of scales...does wii Fit count?

    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.
