I am in. Realistically going to need the weekend to plan* and then join in with gusto from Monday.

* Plan = Very good (arguably best?) mate from Air Force days arrived tonight to spend the weekend. GodMum to FFS (its his birthday weekend, hence the taceval), rugby mate of MrsC and probably the person I love next best in all the world after my family. Walks, talks and boozing will all happen over the next 3 days. As surprises go, it's a doozie!! As prep for future...

...well, let's just say it'll be a nice and easy low bar :) :) :)

Great to hear Angus - not everyone needs lofty goals or long term goals but hopefully those that want some focused tracking can get it?

for weeks (months) I have said I need to drop my Friday and Saturday drink to help weight so after tonight (I have a half bottle left from last weekend that can't go to waste :-D ) so

I will drink with Sunday roast (or if hahaha we go out) only

I will aim to lose 6-7kg by year end (currently on WW to aid with this)

I will commute under my own steam at least 6 times a month (week holiday in October!)

I will do 3+ strength sessions a month (non running week days seem ideal for this)

Amazing Pix - (and for Angus too) this is about framing - in Katy Milkman’s book “how to change” we are more likely to succeed if associated with a temporal landmark (ie a date). I recommend you can say you start on Monday - the first Monday and proper week of Sep.

Of course you could keep the drink if able to moderate and it is logged for calorie tracking (but far easier to get rid!)

Raemond: To fit in favourite jeans by Xmas
HOW: Alcohol w/end only
No takeaways
Orange Tuesdays, rugby x2, run x1, strength x1

Nightowl: Under 10st by 31 Dec & 15 mpw min.
Drink more water.
HOW: Improve diet - have you done the maths and considered in detail what you need to do?

Why 15 mpw? It’s nice to focus on the process but very easy to ignore without a why - “consistent running will improve PBs”? Will you do 5 x 3 or 3 x 5?

Fraggle: TBC

Welsh Poppy:

Back in my OMM rain jacket by 31st December

Body fat at 22%

HOW: I will do this by sticking to

1799 calories a day

111g protein( as per JSA)

1. Lose 10kg by December. Use My Fitness Pal to record calories - MFP suggests 1200 cals /day.

2. Train for and run Great South Run (currently only running max 4 miles). Run 3x per week - 1 parkrun distance, 1 easy, 1 longer run.

Sweetie:

Goal: Lose 8-10lbs before Christmas

1850 calories per day

Not to exceed sugar target on MFP

3 walks per week (in additional to regular training plan - I can swim/bike/run and shift nothing but with walking the weight seems to go quite rapidly)
1 x yoga per week (not related to weight loss but need to get back into regular stretching).

Lammo:

Lose 8 kg by end of year

Exercise for 7 hours per week (i'd rather not include walking, but am sure i will to start with)

How: No snacks, less sugar, more fruit and veg, also making better use of my time for being active.

HOW? No booze, no crisps, better eating habits, drink more water, get more sleep.

WHAT? Weigh 90kg by Christmas.

Jaks:

I’d like to lose a pound a week up to Christmas by cutting out sweets, biscuits, cake and crisps. Really need to eat healthier and I like the idea of having accountability on here.

Gimmie Medals:

I want to:

Lose 10kg by Christmas

Run 5k comfortably (might include jeffing, but it’s the comfortable bit I’m after)

I’m doing it by:

10k steps a day (I’ve just hit my longest streak of 18 days)

Counting calories on MFP (Daily calories as per JSA calculator)

3 x resistance exercise sessions each week

3 x runs a week including a parkrun or 5k
