** 2008 CRIMBO WEIGHT LOSS CHALLENGE **

[xJodieLoux]

Hi girls! Can I join you all?

Well I'm currently 2st 4lbs heavier than I was pre pregnancy and haven't been able to get myself motivated. I've been saying for the last couple of months that I'm going to start healthyy eating and exercising but I haven't yet and I'm abit gutted because if I'd of started when I sad I could of lost a stone by now. Anyway, my target for xmas is to lose 6lbs. I made a start yesterday by doing an aerobics dvd and done it again today, my healthy eating hasn't started yet though But at least I'm exercising, I will bring the healthy eating into it soon lol. Well actually I don't eat that un healthily, just eat too much at meals times and too many snacks.

I know I can do it as I lost 24lbs before I got pregnant, it's getting started again is hard. But I'm setting realistic targets and I hope to reach them. When it gets to xmas I will make a new target (probably arrange a night out in february and have that as a goal) I find having lots of little goals isnt as duanting and more rewarding as you reach them quick and often.

I don't have any scales! So I am going for making my jeans fit... lol. I'm getting scales for xmas, I have a rough idea what I am so i'll go by that!

OOO can I join please

Scales not 100% accurate, but according to them I am currently 10 1/2 stone, would like to be 9 1/2 so will have that as my target, but if I get to 10 I will be chuffed, as my mood is very up and down and food is how I deal with it

Good luck ladies!!!


Its all updated up to here..


I highly recomend having a ticker marking ur progress as everytime u post its ther! good incentive for me anyway hahah

DH is away until Friday so I'm going to be extra good - I've decided that there is to be no food after tea (which is around 6, 6:30 ) and if I crave a snack I will do 20 press ups followed by 20 sit ups I don't fall off the wagon

 

[xJodieLoux]

I'm upping my target to 8lbs, so thats 2lbs a week to lose, just looked at everybody else's target and my seemed really pathetic lol. When I was losing weight pre preg I was losing 2lbs a week so I know I can do it. I don't want to lose more than that a week as it's not reccommended if you want to keep the weight off. I wonder how much I will put back on over christmas though

 

[lisa&alex]

shall we post our weekly weigh ins?

well ive just weighed and im the same.. il put it down to all the halls soothers ive been sucking on and i havent been to the gym since last weds coz ive been to ill nevermind... still carry on eh!

 

[monster_munch]

3lbs down
(although the peanut butter and jam sandwhich I had as supper wasn't really that good, but i'm going in the right direction!!)

 

[xJodieLoux]

I've lost 1lb

 

[monster_munch]

Well I'm not doing too great... I'm doing little to no exercise (i poo pick the ponies field and that's about it ) am going to dig out my exercise video tomorrow, but my other plan is to put loud music on and do housework energetically!!
I'm also really crap with eating habits, the last 4 days I have eaten nothing all day until tea, then had a small and then snacked when the kids are in bed (7pm) until midnight had 4 weetabix with lashing of sugar this evening...

need to get a bit of a grip I think

 

[lisa&alex]

awh hun.. the energetic cleaning should help.. is everyone having a break at xmas? im going to have xmas ever xmas day and boxing day off..and eat my weight in food each hour lol..but then i have to get bk on the diet! have to! what are you all doing?

 

[monster_munch]

it should (when I get round to it ) went and stocked up on Xmas stuff in Tesco today with the 2 kids in the trolley - yes I am having a break from Xmas day to Jan 2 (Jan 1st is my birthday ) so have stocked up on chocolate - that would have burnt off loads of calories I'm sure....

How are you doing Lisa?

 

[lozzi]

Thats whats keeping me going, knowing i can be naughty at crimbo


I'll probs gain loads of my loss bakc over crimbo hahah
