Just wondering...

Gf and I lack abit of motivation when it comes down to losing weight... But when we start we are constantly at it... like before we went to Rome for our 1 week holiday we lost just over 1 stone but after we came back all our old habbits come back and before we know it the 1 stone we lost has come back.

So, we been thinking about it again, new year, new start etc... we thought about losing weight again but with a difference to get our motivation back. Faye and her mum loves Dogs/Cats so I suggested that while we are losing weight we could spark up a sponser to raise some money for those charities or atleast try to as that will give us motivation and worth while in the long run because we are doing something for a reason.

When we lost the weight before we played the wii fit alot, infact it was every single day.

I dont know why I'm posting it on here, maybe trying to get a different angle because we all know people come up with different ideas etc... so any suggestions on best way to set up some sort of sponser?

Buy a kinect, you will lose alot more weight than with a wii just by playing normal games and none of that wii-fit bollocks. :D

lol sod wii and kinect and all that bollocks, just go for a run, if you like animals so much maybe see about getting a dog (one that will like long walks and running with you, so a chuhuha would only be suitable if you are very short) or even borrowing a neighbour/friends dog to take on long walks.

Also, you need motivation to lose weight? You are getting married, do you want to look like Mr and Mrs Jellybaby waddling or Mr and Mrs McHot sexily sauntering down the aisle?

You can trick the wii controller with limited movements but you can't trick kinect as it is doing skeletal tracking and it knows when you are cheating. :p Oh and the athletics games are a real good workout.

Maybe an idea to take example from Ez's idea of doing a sponsored event such as a mini-marathon etc.? Open a justgiving page and I'm sure not only family and friends but some of the good people here would give some cash to charity as well as you shaping up if you so wish.

It gives you a target to aim for and because it's for charity it's hard for you to slacken off, and it's also a shared project with your engaged other half! :D


That's the bloke goh, the female is the fiancee. ;)

Tramp wrestling is always fun. I will give you £5 for each tramp you successfully tag team.

Try and attach a stigma to unhealthy food/activities in your mind and the weight will sluice off.

Also find some activities that get the heart pumping and a sweat flowing every day. Mix it up so you don't get bored.
