Will there be a pre-summer bootcamp?

Good morning,

Just wondering if there are any plans for a bootcamp in the run up to the summer? Love the motivation and positivity of the threads!

Thanks

Probably not, I think they've stopped now.

Podgedodge · 25/05/2023 17:17

Stopped for good? Any reason?

Podgedodge · 25/05/2023 19:13

Sorry, just read the last thread, totally get it. Wishing all well.

I would definitely join if there was another. I discovered the last one about 3 weeks in and while I used it to support my own belated attempt, I was always playing catch up and so I tailed off after a very good start of about a 15 lb loss. I’m not quite back to where I was but would love the motivation of another group initiative. Worst fear is missing the start again as I don’t check into MN every day or even every week.

@onthecoast the ongoing threads will continue so there is support available if you want to start the low carb plan.

@Vibing I believe it's because of the controversy over the sex topic being corrupted as a place for men to talk about kinks and fetishes, but I don't know the detail. A lot of long-term Mumsnet users have quit the site in protest including the lady that created Bootcamp and ran it for the last twelve years.

@StuntNun , that link seems broken.
Dont think she’s left MN has she? Hope not.

StuntNun · 05/06/2023 20:49

@Podgedodge in the Talk topics select big/slim/whatever weight-loss club and then Low-carb Bootcamp and the thread should be the top one.

Podgedodge · 06/06/2023 02:19

@StuntNun thank you.

Going to be posting a link to a sign up thread shortly (just trying to sort out a new Spreadsheet Monitor ) with a view to starting a late summer Boot Camp on the 19 June.

I've checked with @BIWI that it's ok and she's happy for me to run one

I'm on holiday to South Africa in September (a belated 25th wedding anniversary to ourselves) and I've well and truly fallen off the wagon : running Boot Camp will help keep me focussed
