 Welcome to all who have expressed an interest in joining us in the Weight Loss Race! It was a fantastic response so we're going to be losing a lot each week!!
Please use this forum thread to record your loss each week. I've reduced the first target to 7lbs or half a stone as some have less to lose than others and we can all celebrate a bit earlier!!
Please record how much you have lost and the remaining amount to target, for example, 2lbs lost, 5 to go, that way we can easily see our progress and congratulate the first to reach the target!!
We have a range of weigh in days so just add your loss on your chosen day, no one seems to have chosen Saturday so that can be our announcing/congratulating day, when we can congratulate those who have reached the target!!
Good Luck ladies!!!!!

 I'm 10st 2lbs and would love to get back down to 9.5st. Only got 9ibs to lose in 3 months (Holiday) but I have already been trying for about 9 months :( Maybe this might spur me on a bit :D x

 I think I may have to weigh myself today, even though I ate a mad amount last night for H2B's birthday, but it's pancake day today so not looking forward to the weigh in tomorrow morning emoticon

 I lost 1lb this week! 6 to go to my next 7lb!
Was 15st 2lb when I joined WW in June 2010 and now weight 12st 7.5lb. I want to be 11st 9lb for the wedding which is in June! Sarting Boot Camp next Monday, just paid for 12 sessions and I am also doing Zumba on a Tuesday night! I will be a slim bride, instead of a wobbly one!!

 First weigh in last night - from the last time I weighed myself I was 12st 2lbs (but that was ages ago!). As of last night I was 11st 7lbs. Anything under 10st 7lbs would be fine as a weight loss target. I have 19 weeks to go so 1lb a week would do me.

 I've lost 3st since last June (quite alot of which was a baby) but am struggling to shift the last pesky 8lb (although 6 would do) to get back to my pre pregnany weigh of 7st 2lb (I am very short) and as I had a C-Section it seems to be stubbornly hanging about my lower tummy which is always pleasant(!) 12 weeks to the big day. Any tips for post csection tummy tightening gratefully received!

 @seasidebride Pilates is great for the lower ab area- lots of core body work which gets right to that area, lol. I got a deal off social living, so started classes this week and hopefully going to start Zumba too emoticon I don't have a target weight per se, but that's totally the area I'm trying to work on as well! I'm so proud of all you gals- you're a great inspiration to me!! x

 Thanks @aisling. I'm not expecting to get anything like as good a result as last week - I've been quite bad this week. Oh well, so long as it all keeps going down I'm happy.
