FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

We all know that our next weigh in is on the 22nd of December.

I will be going down south on the 27th and wont be back until the 7th of January.

Our first weigh in should be on the 5th.

Let me know what you want to do,

either miss the weigh in all together, and go for the 12th of January......

OR

Weigh in on the 5th as normal, and I will just post them on the 8th when I can get the list together.

The choice is yours....

I will go with the majority.

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Hi MJM

I think I'd like to weigh in on 5th anyway - so that I know what I'm up against!!! If I know I have until the 12th I might be more likely to stray from the rules, thinking I have more time to get back on track.

Could just be mm being weak!!!!!

Think the 5th would be best or I'll just treat that week as an extra week of festivities!!!

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Hi everyone

I agree please can we weigh-in on the 5th - that extra week will give me the feeling of a week off....

Lets start the year as we mean to go on.

Thanks mjm - as long as it won't be to much for you with being away.

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Even though I don't join in the weigh-in.................

I would also suggest the 5th January, otherwise the 12th is nearly half way through January and more than enough time for Christmas goodies to be welded to the hips!! (This is the voice of experience speaking!!)

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Oh dear, i must be the only one i would prefer the 12th January. My theory being i will start off the year really good and when the 12th comes i will weigh so much lighter, that it will give me the boost i need.
However looks like it will be the 5th so i best be good, unless of course you like my theory and change your minds after all its a lot of pressure on mjm, after her holiday to do our weights and unpack her pressies, we could give her a weeks grace..... ( I reckon i'm on my own here lol)

Hi mjm and everyone. The 5th would be good for me as well, please! I'd rather not leave it until the 12th if possible. Hope that's ok with everyone. xx

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

The 5th please! If it's not convenient for MJM perhaps we could just start a new thread that morning and all add our losses (in my case probably gains) and start weights for the new year?

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

I don't mind which day we choose, but the 5th fits better with New Year Resolutions.

Are we going to keep count of the days, or are we going to start agan at DAY 1 as it's a new year, and we might want to welcome some new Flabuless Forumers aboard? Just a thought.

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

I know I'm a bit late with an opinion, but the 5th for me too please. I really like the length of times between weigh ins - not too long, not too short. I don't mind waiting til the 8th mjm, I think it is brilliant of you to give us an option and to keep doing it

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Hi mjm, I'd prefer the 5th too - I'm already feeling fatter - too many end of term mince pies, and too much sitting in the car driving to different places for work. I'd like to start off afresh at the start of the year - that way,hopefully I'll have lost some weight by the time we get to the second weigh in!

Thank you so much for being willing to keep doing this! (Will we make it to Day 3,650!!!)

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Can I join in? Is this part of the Day 270 type posts? What do I do and where do I sign? I'd like to drink less, eat less and lose about a stone. I'd also like to add exercise into the week somehow - but I hate it

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

5th for me please.............and I think it is a good idea to start at 1 again. Then people like me don't get confused.............bad enough trying to lose weight without trying to remember what no we are on!!!

Mrs T - I am starting excercise on Jan 13th. Not from choice but through the coronary rehab programme. So it will be a double wammy for me......hopefully I will lose some weight and make my heart pump more (less time in hosp then). I am also DETERMINED to go out in evening with my doggy for a nice walk after dinner. Build up the steps on my pedometer.

Like you I want to lose a stone.......

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Of course you can join in, Mrs T. You need a copy of the book "I can make you Thin" by a well known hypnotist referred to hereafter as PMK. It comes with a CD, and by listening to that, and reading the book, and supporting each other on here, some of us have lost quite a bit of weight. Our leader is mjm, and we PM her our weights every other Monday, and the following day she posts how much we have lost or gained over the fortnight.

We started on DAY 1 (cos we like to be original ) and we are now on DAY 273, but new people join in all the time. All are welcome.

supersarah, I hope this answers your question too.

The next weigh day is January 5th 2009.

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Ah, ok. I'll just do the bits I can without the book if that's ok. I don't actually want to 'diet' per se. Just make myself accountable. Hopefully I can do that here!

Thanks for explaining!

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Oh no you can't! . The Flabulous Forumers are PMK followers. There was another group that was doing regular weight loss (for want of a better word) but I think it stopped.

Anyway, with PMK you don't go on a diet, you change your eating habits, but no food is forbidden. I can really recommend the system (and no, I'm not on commission!).

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

But I don't like him

I'll weigh myself and exercise alone then, I'll slope off into a corner and look sad and left out

Then I'll be so sad I'll need to comfort eat and I can blame you lot for being fat again

Hi Mrs Twiddle,

Please come join us, nobody likes him at first but after he's been wispering in your ear a few times - he becomes stangely attractive and his method DOES WORK.

What do you have to do to join ? Do we have to tell you our starting weights or just how much we lose each week

Re: FLABULESS FORUMERS...........AFTER CHRISTMAS.........

Mrs T, you don't have to marry him! Just read the book and listen to the CD. We're a friendly bunch really. The group was set up nine months ago for people who wanted to follow the PMK system - that's the point of the Flabulous Forumers.

gilley, I agree his method does work, but I'm not sure that he becomes strangely attractive lol!

Sonata and Polly55, if you read what I've written above, under Thimble's picture of an elephant, it tells you what to do.

He's here but in a bad way. His spine is torn and edges dogeared (Just about sums him up then LOL).I will use him until his alter ego arrives.
