Month one: Mid-2010 weight loss challenge

**krysalyss** · April 13th, 2010, 08:44 AM

Welcome to the BB mid-2010 weight loss challenge. The total challenge is 12 weeks long but split into 1 month periods so you can commit to one month, two months or the whole lot.

The challenge is based on two measures
1. Percentage of weight lost
2. Centimetres lost

So we are looking at a challenge to shed unwanted weight, but also to gain some fitness: the best way to lose cms is to exercise!

What do you need to do:
1. Get motivated and have a plan!
2. Get yourselves your bathroom scales and tape measure ready!
3. Start eating healthily and taking more exercise
4. PM krysalyss every Monday with your weight and measurements who will post results by Wednesday.

Please weigh yourself in kg's, and measure, in cm's, bust, tummy and hips.

There is no set 'diet' for this challenge - just do whatever plan or diet works best for you. Some will prefer a set diet or plan, others will prefer healthy eating and cutting out the junk.

Week One starts Monday 19th April so get your details to krysalyss by then to be added to the list below!

Ok, I'm in. Hope I'm not setting myself up for another failure....finding it very hard to get and stay motivated.

**krysalyss** · April 13th, 2010, 09:56 AM

Commit to just one month instead of the whole lot. You can do 4 weeks - I know you can!

**Bengal** · April 13th, 2010, 10:48 AM

Sorry for the questions

Do you publish my measurements and weight on the forum, or do you keep track of them offline ?

**AliBaby** · April 13th, 2010, 11:14 AM

Liking this!
Will do measurements and weight tonight or maybe I should do them later in the week in case I gain another kg by Monday!

just joking!

I was thinking the same.....hahahaha!!!!! But what's 1 kg when I've got 30 to lose!

**~Kim~** · April 13th, 2010, 11:37 AM

WLAB usually it's kept offline babe.

I'm in too. Will have to go and buy myself a tape measure tomorrow....and find somewhere to weigh.

**Sterla** · April 13th, 2010, 11:46 AM

Yup, I'm definitely in. Will PM details later in the week

**leckert** · April 13th, 2010, 11:50 AM

I'm in ... just need to find the time to measure, I know the kgs from yesterday (still need to lose 1kg to be pre-preg weight) and then I'll pm my details.

**krysalyss** · April 13th, 2010, 11:53 AM

Your details are just kept offline and I just post the difference each week
e.g.
Krysalyss: % wt lost (0.5%), cms lost (2 cms)

**danita** · April 13th, 2010, 04:20 PM
