Anyone interested in 10Kg loss in 8 weeks?

[bells25]

Love this challenge - I feel like I know you guys soooo well - can I call you my friends??

So we have some newbies who are joining the challenge - LOVE IT!!! SO welcome to......

Wellfit, Greeni and Changing for life.......biggest welcome to you guys (I know Wellfit you aren't starting for a bit but it's great to see you around again - we never did organise that meet-up!!)

We are a great little team with lots of advice and support for each other!

Delightful Daisymac, I agree with Kirst, lemon or lime can add some flavour - sometimes I just go for room temp or tap water and skull it down - usually can do a 600ml bottle if I feel a bit dehydrated or need to up my intake quickly or to help me if I am hungry - refer to earlier post!

LOVE YOU GUYS and hope you are all having a great day, with NO headaches!!!

[WellFit]

HI Daisymac, I know for some people it is hard to drink water (I am a lucky one I LOVE IT!!) I have been training one of the girls to drink water at work.. we set mini goals and reminders on her computer. Get yourself a water bottle and say okay I have to drink 600ml by 10am... another 600ml by 1pm.. etc or every 15mins I need to have a drink.. and Yes the toilet will be your friend but your body will get used to it and will love getting rid of all those toxins.. remember "The more you drink the more you shrink" WOOT WOOT.

[DaisyMac]

Hey Bells,

Would love to be called your friend! Thanks so much for setting up this challenge. So glad I joined up as I think this will give me the motivation I need to stay on track and be accountable.

Its nice to have a group of people to share everything with.

[DaisyMac]

Thanks WellFit - will do just that - love the "more you drink, the more you shrink" motto.

Hi bells, is Sunday too late to start the challenge? On holiday and without scales until then. Cheers Annie.

Yes i too would love to sign up for this challenge - its an awesome way to stay motivated and accountable. Officially I started on the 2nd if January 2011 and this is my 3rd attempt. Am quite excited have got a real enthusiasm for it this time round and have set a personal goal to be under the 100's or at least close to it by the end of April.
Detox has been a struggle but only with nausea which i think is down to not getting enough sleep so will work on that from here on in.

Woah this has to be one of the most popular threads on the forum right about now

Bells darling how I would have looooooved a bath!! But my 5, 3, and 1 year olds would no way no how let me have that kind of luxury LOL

I've found that by switching meals 2 & 3 and eating my fruit and crackers as snacks rather than with meals seems to make a difference.

Does anyone have any rewards in mind for completing this challenge??? I have a family wedding on the end date, 27 Feb, so I'm planning a new dress

[Violet6]

[Greeni]

There will be a loooooooot of dropped kilos in this forum....
Throw the anchor out, Bell, not that we fly away

Great challenge. Love it. Welcome everybody. Got a sore throat and no voice - can't drink lemsip. Has anyone got a tip of what to do besides hot tea and salt water??

[Alli]

Hmmm... my mum & nanna just say hot sweet tea - can we have those sugar-free strepsils? I have never looked at the ingredients...

[Alli]

Oh, maybe you can gargle that red stuff - I always get confused between iodine and betadine, I can never remember which - it is supposed to be good for a sore throat!

[Kirst]

betadine gargle for sure...taste like icky but works super fast!

[Greeni]

Great!! Thank you! Will do that!!!!!
