I am getting back onto the weight loss/healthy eating road after gaining 6kgs of fat round my midsection. [my scale says I am at 23% BF]

Whats the possibility of a group of us starting a competition say between now and December - a weight loss/ exercise challenge?

Maybe issue some sort of prize/honorific title to the winner.

I'll join :D Would like to lose a kg or 2.
Make it 5 and we have a deal
 
Well it'd be really nice if we could make it official and sticky this for updates [hint] *cough
Maybe throw in some prizes [hint hint] *cough

The fat part was implied - no one deliberately loses lean muscle mass - well 99.99% of people don't
 
Sure, I'll join. I need to lose about 5kg as well. Can we make this a weight loss thread with tips on diet and exercise as well?

The prize for a weight loss (more like fat loss) competition is feeling good about yourself and the improved physical fitness isn't it? :confused:

Yes but judging by the clear amount of fat people out there sometimes additional motivation for a kick start is good

True, I suppose. The only other decent fitness thread here is the bodybuilding one though, and those guys are trying to put on mass rather than losing it :D
 
Not my scene, but I recently learned something that might be of use to someone: You need about 500 calories shortfall in calorie intake vs usage per day to burn 2 kg in fat per month. So in OPs case that would mean running about 5km a day extra or just cutting down intake. Very broadly of course.
 
if anyone wants Herbalife to assist with the healthy lifestyle, perfect nutrition, weight control and loss.. inbox me and we can chat about getting you some discount prices.. :)

eh forgot to mention those are real calories.

1000 real calories (scientific) = 1 food/dietary calorie = 1 kj

lol I'm not at risk of dying yet. But for the morbidly obese - yes that'd be a great payoff

Lol, thank goodness for being in shape.
I just frown on over weight people now because I put the work in and lost loads of weight.
Not that I was ever fat.
But now I play loads of sport and eat very well.
The difference is like night and day.
 
Anyway join guys lets make this a group thing
- and take a photo of yourself time-stamped
