Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!! 2013!!! This year is going to be FAB! I just know it! Looking at where I was this time last year.. its been a tough road but SOOOO worth it! Getting all dolled up over the holidays and peoples reactions to it was the best feeling ever! SO... lets get going.. 


Drop a size... 

This challenge is getting down a number.. and not on the scales.. in your clothes ... I'm all about the Non scale victories... and the scales can some weeks dictate how we feel... so this challenge whilst we'll be weighing in to be accountable is all about your body toning and changing and clothes getting looser ever though the scales says you've stayed the same!! 

I don't officially weigh in until next thursday and I'm actually gonna miss class, as I'm off to see the Queen... well WW HQ in London are doing a 'mini launch' of new stuff happening so I'll be back with loads of gossip and tips hopefully! But I'll weigh in somewhere... 






It's that time of year.. the dark evenings are getting shorter… the Christmas fun is over and easter eggs are in Tesco already! I kid you not! People are already thinking about summer holidays  … weddings.. family dos.. training for the mini marathon.. big birthdays…  dresses hanging on the door in anticipation!!! Those summer days when you just want to throw on a pretty dress and a pair of wedges and feel happy! No ones saying you've got to look like Kate Moss... but wouldn't it be nice to just be happy in yourself without all the drama! Lads, wouldn't it be nice to grab a short sleeved short and not feel shite about your moobs?!?! or get into a cool pair of jeans and feel good about yourself... Starting now when you don't have to reveal all means that we can be ahead of the game once summer gets here.. and its coming.. there's no hiding!

I have such a dress… a very close friend is getting married in May and it doesn't fit! No where near.. so I need you guys more than ever!!!! Let the ass-kicking commence! (can I also add I've got the most AMAZING pair of shoes to go with it... sigh..)

Goal for May!

This challenge is lose 10lbs! 10lbs is one dress size or trouser size for the boys! AND... its 10 weeks to St. Patricks day... so everyone can be down at least one whole size by then… and just remember the next challenge will be the summer one and that's baring skin people, wouldn't it be nice to have at least one size gone before all that drama arrives!!!! 



So take the next 10 weeks and be down 1 lb each week, that's all you need to lose.. 1 lb.. if you lose more all the better but the healthy way to lose it is 1 - 2 lbs a week... and you'll be one whole size smaller by the time Easter even hits the radar!  

Need incentive… get out the skinny jeans… that shirt that's just tooooo tight… the dress that won't zip up… those pants that really aren't flattering.. and take a good look in the mirror! Feel the tightness.. feel uncomfortable.. remember how much you want it! Take a mental picture.. hell, take a real pic for yourself and put it on your phone so everytime you look at it that image is staring you out! and say out loud.. THIS WILL FIT ME! I CAN DO IT!





Add your name in a comment below or tweet me that you're in and comment each Thursdays post or DM me your loss and a new chart with all the losses will be posted on Friday! Simples! 2013 is gonna be the best yet!!!!

  17. I can't diet since I'm pregnant until after the baby is born and I start working to lose all these added pounds and sizes! But, I do have to say that it's strange how the number on the scale can make such a difference. I still fit in maternity size medium/small at almost 9 months pregnant...but as I see that number creep up at my OB appointments, I get completely freaked out and feel huge! Such a mental thing. I think working towards dropping dress sizes instead of the number on the scale is such a better idea!! :)
