Have never had a lot of trouble sticking to it until now I dont know why im not as motivated as I have been in the past.
I have four gorgeous kids and am 25 kilos heavier than what I was pre baby
Im hoping to meet some awesome friends on here to keep me on track and motivated I have some beautiful jeans in my cupboard id love to wear for winter especially now im almost 30 coming to terms with that alone is hard enough let alone feeling overweight and ugly

So im asking whose with me in this
From now to June maybe we should create a reward for when we reach June to help keep us motivated
Look forward to meeting you all who are going to join me in this

ANDIE'S 6 WEEK CHALLENGE

Andie79 — Thu, 28 Jul 2011 14:30:42 GMT

Hi All,

On the 10th of September, I head off on a 3 week holiday with my Hubby and baby girl.
Now, I know that this is only 6 short weeks away, but I am hoping to drop a few kilos, before then. I just want to be able fit properly in to my current clothes, without bulging, or spilling out of them! :D

Ideally I'd like to drop a couple of dress sizes but that won't be possible, so I'll save that for a Christmas Goal instead. :)

So who wants to join me? This could be fun!! :)

Gym/exercise challenge

Jenbear — Sun, 02 Oct 2011 16:56:16 GMT

Hi All .... So me and pwincess are starting this challenge tomorrow. Basically, we love TF and its going great, but the only way our fitness is going to get better is if we start exercising more as well.
Now me, I'm already a daily gym user, but we're starting off a bit more reachable (mainly because I'm back at work next week, so finding that time will be fun - not)

So for Week one, our expectations of each other are:

Attend Gym 3 times in the week.
Do 30 sit ups a day.

Because everyone's fitness levels are different, we don't expect others to match our expectations, but I thought I'd start up a place where you can put up your own expectations of yourself exercise/fitness wise and have somewhere that you can come and talk about it and decide when you want to go up or down!
(I know I'll be straight on here if i go or dont go to a gym sesh lol)

so who wants to join us in a untime-lined exercise challenge. Whats your week one goals?

Proud of myself

Rik — Sun, 24 Feb 2013 12:32:27 GMT

Hi All, I'm a 1st time poster..

I started the TF diet on the 11th Of Jan 2013. Weighing in a 89kg, the heaviest that I've ever been. Discusted with myself for letting myself go I decided to join TF. Well this morning I weighed in at 80.2kg.. YEH!!!

Only 10kg to go and I'll be extatic when I get there..

No looking back I have found TF very easy to follow and the shakes are scrumptious..

Thanks for keeping me on track with all the before and after photo's. They are an inspiration to me and help keep me motivated.

Rik — Sun, 10 Feb 2013 11:18:39 GMT

Hi Nicole88, thankyou for starting this group. I find you and everyone on it very inspirational and motivating.
I started on TF on the 11/1/13 and so far have lost 7.5kg and 12 cm around my waist.

Reading all the different comments is helping me stay focused and keeping me edging towards my goal.

I started at 88kg and intend on getting to 70kg by the middle of winter.

My first mini goal is to hit 80kg by my birthday at the start of March.

Thankyou for you support group.

Cheers Rikki

12 week wedding challenge

Jesika88 — Wed, 06 Feb 2013 10:50:36 GMT

Hi everyone,

So its 12 weeks until our Wedding on the 5th May :) Which means I have 12 weeks to loose as much as possible. Realistically this is about 6kgs, to get me to 70kg. Medium term goal is 65kg (11kg loss), long term 60kg (16kg loss).

I'm going to keep this blog to help me get through any tough stuff that I might incounter along the way. Feel free to join, support, ask questions or provide advise to me - the more the merry.

Currently my weekly excerise consists of:

Monday - 90-120mins of soccer training

Tuesday - 45min spin class followed by 60min boxaise

Wednesday - 90-120mins of soccer training

Thursday - 45min spin class followed by 60min boxaise

Friday - Rest

Saturday - Soccer game - usually play full match 90mins

Sunday - Rest

I'm thinking that Friday should no longer be a rest day, and I should have a PT on Friday morning because lets face it Friday afternoon after work is just not going to happen :hehe: Thoughts?

Also I've ordered a new batch on TF or ToFo as my partner calls it so I'll be starting back on shakes whenever it arrives.

As far as the wedding plans are going - everything seems to currently be according to plan. Mums being a little over involved and trying to get everything prefect for me, which is great cos its means she really cares but sometimes it's a little frastrating when I say no thanks and she does it anyway. Sigh it's okay. This weekend has a couple of hours put aside for wishing well creation. I'm making it out of 3 hat boxes. Hopefully it turns out well - I'll post a pic if it does :D

Also if there are any other brides/grooms out there who wants some support I'm happy for you to add to this blog or PM me, whether weight loss, excerise or wedding related!

Jes .x. ;)

JANUARY - NEW YEAR CHALLENGE

icanucan2 — Wed, 02 Jan 2013 08:49:03 GMT

JANUARY 4 WEEK CHALLENGE - 4th January 2013 To 1st February 2013

Happy New Year everyone!

Well the party is definitely over for me.....been away on holidays for 2 weeks, enjoyed way too many carbs (esp my Mum's home cooking), so now time to get back on track. I thought a quick 4 week challenge would be just the thing. I am going to weigh on Friday morning 04/01/13 (this gives me a few days before I see how much damage has been done :blush: over the Christmas/New Year) and then set myself a goal of 4kg's in 4 weeks ending 1st February. Very achievable I think and hopefully should get me close to the 60's.

It would be great to have others for support and motivation, so please join me and feel free to set your own 4 week goal.

Let's make it a great New Year everyone - it's all up to us - we can do it!!

110kg here I come!

Benno699 — Fri, 09 Nov 2012 17:46:08 GMT

So goal one, and its better you set small goal is 110kgs!

Started at 118.4
Current 115.9

Before end March 2013

Durbangold — Wed, 21 Nov 2012 19:59:25 GMT

I want to lose 55kgs by the end March 2013. That is when i'm turning 40!! :w00t: I know its a big ask but really am determined.. Am I crazy to even think this way????

Look Fabulous at Christmas Challenge!

Celby — Sun, 17 Jun 2012 20:34:21 GMT

I've been struggling with my weight for about 5 years now and enough is enough. I'm tired of looking at family pictures and being the 'fat one'. This year I need to get healthy and start feeling good about myself again. There is exactly 28 weeks until new years eve and in the time between now and then I wish to lose 34.4kg. I am obese so initially the weight will drop fast, after that a steady kilo a week is sustainable.

Start Weight: 104.4kg (Monday 18th June 2012)

Goal Weight: 70kg (Monday 31st December 2012) 28 weeks losing 34.4kg

Please join and tell your story!!! Let us pick each other up!

5kg by christmas!!!

misshh88 — Mon, 26 Nov 2012 19:42:11 GMT

hi guys!

i wanted to set myself a personal challenge of loosing another 5kg by Christmas and i thought id post it on here and see if anyone wants to join in with me?! :D

so i figured whoever wants to join can post on their weigh in day how much they have lost! also we can help each other with any issues we are having with the
program and help to keep each other motivated also!

i know 5kg in 4 weeks can be a lot! especially for others like me who are trying to get through the dreaded plateau! but i still think its worth a try! :)

so as of today my weight is 104.8 and if i loose the 5kgs i will finally be under 100kg!! a major goal for me!! and it will also mean i will have lost 30kg all up!!

hope some of you guys want to join in!!! :D

Went to lunch with friends ate before I went had a Macciato and sparkling water it was great to have the social outing without focusing on food. good day.

5kg in OCTOBER - L E T ' S D O I T !

icanucan2 — Sat, 29 Sep 2012 08:29:03 GMT

Hi All,

Well it's almost October, so thought I would set myself a challenge for the new month and that is to lose 5kg's - please join me!

Feel free to set your own goal.....by joining this challenge it's just a good way to stay accountable and offer encouragement to each other.

My weigh-day is Sunday but I am going to weigh on my home scales Monday morning 01/10 so I can get a proper months reading- will post my start weight then. If you want to just use your weekly weigh-in that's fine too and just go from the closest one to the start of the month. Also if you want to take your waist measurement at the start of the challenge and keep track of cm's lost that would be great too.

So LET'S DO IT everyone....one step at a time and one step closer to goal :D

Nella84 — Wed, 05 Sep 2012 19:06:47 GMT

Hi Everyone!

I have recently started the program in South Africa and hope to reach my goal by Christmas. Spring here and with spring comes change so I thought this would be the perfect time to do so.

My starting weight was 78kg :crying: and my goal is to be down to at least 62kg by Christmas. I am only 1.64 meters tall.
It's been 3 days now since the start and the headaches have been horrible. Hopefully they will be gone by tomorrow.

:cool:

Spring in2 Action Challenge

Yavis — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 12:19:04 GMT

Hey everyone

I'm finally back after months of wasting time and digging myself into a deeper hole. So I've started a new spring time challenge to get myself motivated. I realise its not officially spring yet but it almost is and thats good enough for me, hopefully ketosis will hit before its officially spring too.

So my new starting weight is 135.7kg on 14.08.2012 :angry: (all that hard work undone!!!)

I want to be as close as I can to 100kg by Christmas 2012, I know thats pushing it pretty far (almost 36kg) but i'm up for a challenge. Its 19 weeks until Christmas so even if I can make 1kg loss per week I'll be happy. Long term It is 50 weeks until my next birthday and I want to be down to 80 kgs by then (Fingers crossed) thats 55.7kgs to go!

I'm determined to stick to this. I need to.

Hopefully others will join in too :)

Master Class 2012

caffiend — Tue, 11 Sep 2012 09:33:52 GMT

Have you signed up for Master Class? Only two more weeks to register.

http://www.tonyferguson.com/Master-Class-National-Terms.aspx

Some things I found out when I signed up:
- if you complete the challenge with you TF Centre you get a $25 store voucher at the end!
- BUT you have to have spent a total of something like $250 over the six week period, which is $41.70pw if your chipping at it weekly, ie roughly the cost of doing the program anyway.

Great timing for me because I've just started back on Tony as of the weekend and also am going on a cruise in about 8 weeks.
My favorite Tony centre is at Liverpool which is a 1hr train ride from where I live so its going to be a challenge to go in every Saturday for weigh in etc. But it should help keep me on track.
My consultant helped me work out some mini goals and rewards to keep me going.
I think this also calls for a blinkie! I'll come back with that one.

GL to everyone for the 6 Week MasterClass Challenge! :hehe:

Challenge Blinkies

Mallyflea — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 19:19:55 GMT

8 kilos in 8 weeks

StacieMumOf4 — Mon, 30 Jul 2012 18:30:31 GMT

Hi!

I have been overweight since having my son 5 years ago. I need to lose about 20kg but am setting a mini goal of 8kg's before my 30th birthday party. I have 4 young children which keeps me busy and I find it hard to fit time in to exercise and plan what I eat.

I would love to hear from other mums who are on their weightloss journey!

"Been Meaning To Try......." Challenge

icanucan2 — Mon, 29 Aug 2011 11:14:55 GMT

Hi All,

Well this is not a weight loss challenge as such, but thought it might be interesting and inspiring to make a place to post a recipe (or could be exercise or anything else) that you have been meaning to try and this will give you the motivation to do it, then when you have done so you can come back and tell us your opinion of it. I know for me esp there are always recipes and ideas I see and think "I must try that", and don't always get around to doing it (have a whole folder full!). I also know that when someone else recommends something, then I am more likely to give it a go + I find that by trying out new recipes it helps keeps the program exciting and gives me something to look forward to. So post now a recipe or idea you have seen whether it is on the forum, TF recipes, in a cookbook or just something you thought of yourself, and then when you have tried it you can let us know your feedback.

I'll start (mine is past tense as that's what got me thinking about this challenge):

Always been meaning to try the cauliflower popcorn. Last week I did and is was yummy and a great snack, made it again at the weekend. Then yesterday I also tried the zucchini & herb slice (TF vegetarian recipes). Added 1/2 a grated carrot and some red capsicum to the mix. Loved it and as it made 2 serves I am going to have it again tonight.

Looking forward to reading yours. :)

3 stone in 4 months?

X_Mairi_X — Sun, 17 Jun 2012 23:14:05 GMT

Recently, I weighed myself and found I was a stone heavier than I thought I was. I'm 12st and should be 9st. I'm aiming to lose the weight by the time I go back to uni in September. I want to do this for myself, but I'd also like to give my uni friends a bit of a surprise! I've always been complaining about my weight to them.

Anyone else trying to lose this much in this time? Or am I aiming too high?

Thanks.
