Lonniecee, Peter147, Kristine, meagain & Baloo's New Years Cohens Sprint

[baloo]

This diary thread will keep track of the mini-Cohen's race Lonniecee, Peter147 and myself will be starting Monday January 7th. There is no prize for the winner other than bragging rights. But then again, I'm not sure how we can decide who is winning. Total Weight Loss and maybe % weight loss in some sort of formula. But really, it's just to add some competitiveness to our goals to drop back down to Cohen's weight after we bloated somewhat.

To see why we bloated, you can check out our individual diaries but suffice to say our old ways crept back in and we weren't attentitive enough to stop them, until now.

So, weight in Monday morning, Jan 7th, after you morning calls.

I'll declare my goal weight here: 77kg. Bottom of Cohen's range and 1.3Kg lower then my lowest ever during refeed. Peter, Lauren, what are yours ?

[Lonniecee]

Okay, Jan 7th it is. My goal weight is 60kg.

Lauren

[Peter 14.7]

Humm, my goal weight.

80kg and 18% Body Fat,

I suggest we compete as follows:

Total Wieght Lost. x 1
Total % Body Fat Lost. x 1.5

Highest Score Wins.

Peter

[Lonniecee]

My scales don't calculate %body fat so at the risk of being a dill (actually a well established fact at times LOL) how do I calculate it?

Lauren

[baloo]

Not easy lauren. I'm happy to just calculate %weight lost. It's fairer than actual weight lost.

[Peter 14.7]

Yeah thats correct and fair as it is harder for girls to build muscle. Us Guys should still measure BF.

Peter

[Peter 14.7]

For some motivation for the others I sarted on the 1st and have lost 3.2kg and 1% body fat. I know this does not count but I am happy it is start.

FYI

I was 92.1kg and 26.4% Body Fat.
Now 88.9kg and 25.4 Body Fat.
On this basis I lost only just under 1kg of fat but 3.2kg of wiegh so it must be water etc..

Still a weigh to go to 80kg and the harder goal of 18% Body Fat.

Time to set up new ticker.

Peter

[Peter 14.7]

We I think I amd going to los but in the end win. Istarted diet on the 1st with WIfe who was shocked she put on 4kg over X mas.

She has lost 1.7kg and me 4kg in the week so I willnot get the waster rention boost to my figures.

As of today SUnday morning I amd 88.4kg and 25.3% body fat.

I amd fly out very early tomorrow so I dont know if I will get the wiegh.

BRING IT ON!!!!

Oi! Baloo!!!

Can I play too, please?

I have already declared in my Diary that I am back on the program as of tomorrow morning, so unless it is Member's Only I shall be in the race, too

Cheers

[baloo]

Of course you can. It's open for anyone who has finished and lapsed a bit and in need of a mini-cohens sprint race. The little competitive spirit is there just to increase our motivation.

[Lonniecee]

Okay folks. It's official. We are on. This morning my weight was 69.6kg (ouch ) So I need to drop 9.6kg to get to my goal of 60kg.

Good luck folks.

Lauren

[Kristine..]

Morning All

Start Weight 66.25kilos
Goal Weight 58.00 kilos

Interestingly, weighed 67.00 on 1st January, so have come down 0.75 kilos in one week - the only change from pre- New Year was the reduction in drinking wine! Glycerol in the muscles being used up.

OK, I am now 'On The Program' - We're Off!!!

Cheers

Kristine

[baloo]

Cracked the 90kg mark this morning. That hurts.

Start Weight: 90.3
Goal Weight: 77.0

13.3 Kg to lose. My initial goal of 6 weeks might be too aggressive. This might be a two-monther.

[meagain]

Hmm, I think I've knocked myself out of contention for this race, I thought about joining in, but I started on 3.1.08.

I'll have to cheer by the sidelines.

[Kohinoor]

Hi meagain,

Why not post your weight as of today - you CAN still be in this "mini-sprint" - why not? Read Baloo's reply to Kristine:-

Of course you can. It's open for anyone who has finished and lapsed a bit and in need of a mini-cohens sprint race. The little competitive spirit is there just to increase our motivation.

Get in there girl - show them all what you're made of... No prizes for first, but EVERYONE is a winner - sounds like a great race to me,
