When's the next boot camp?

[Dreamingofcakeallnight]

Hi all

Just wondering when the next bootcamp is starting. I'm hoping its Jan. I really need a kick up the (rather flabby) bottom. X

I am trying to do it over Christmas anyway as I am not going back to how I used to eat and lost my cravings for chocolate etc.

I think a full on start on 13th Jan seems best. I have never been on the official bootcamp chart etc but I've eaten mostly paleo/primal which is often low carb for 4 or 5 years and it makes me feel wonderful although I have fallen off it a couple of time. I just need to lose a stone (or possibly two which would be the ideal although one would be great).

I can't wait. Is it a 10 week bootcamp?

It will be 10 official weeks, with one unofficial one to kick us off!

I'm in for Jan. I was so good last Christmas and LC'd throughout.

Today my lunch was cheese straws dipped in chilli sauce and a bowl of trifle

Placemarking. Fibro's given me ridiculous sugar cravings and a crappy thyroid makes a rubbish combination. Need the kick up the unfeasibly large arse

Place marking if you don't mind another joining in?

I don't have the worst problem in the world, but I've crept up to 9 stone and will probably be over by the time Christmas is done. I'm 5'6" but bird-boned, so anything over 8 / 8.25 stone only goes on as flab, and not well-distributed curvy flab either.

When I'm the right weight I feel poised, energetic, powerful in my own skin. At present, I feel a bit ungainly and hunched. I'll probably start just after Boxing Day, and be all motivated and bright eyed and annoying by the 6th January...

Athel......I am 5 ft 6 but big boned ie size 8 feet!

I would look awful at 9 st!!!

10 st 7lb would suit me

Ahh, well I'm a size 4 in feet... with tiny fingers... I'm just a spindly weed, really. But don't want to be a lardy, spindly weed.

Can I do it if I'm breastfeeding a 14 week old?

pseudoSanta others have done it whilst bfing - I am sure they will give you specific advice. I am planning on getting straight back on it, after my baby in May. I think the main advice was to have snacks near bed if you were feeding at night so you could keep going easily.

Can I join you too, please? I have been LCing for a couple of months but the holidays (well - my relaxed attitude over the holidays and party season) have derailed me a bit. I need to get back to LC asap as I am worried I will put the weight back on. I do not have a lot to lose - 8 lbs or so, but this extra weight is very "stubborn" and won't go away easily.

pseudoSanta - I did, and got through a lot of banana and almond muffins during the nightfeeds!

Another place marking here! 5'1", 9st and wanting to get back to 8st or just below. Have skinny legs but big boobs and belly... a typical apple!!

come and sign up here!

Yes can do it breastfeeding. In fact the eskimo culture was meat/fat/fish and a few veg and they thrived on it whether pregnant, breastfeeding, pulling a sledge and hunting with spears i.e. things needing a lot of energy.

I really love the idea of the soft start to Bootcamp - I know you've already no-no'd it, but would you be up for making a thread for those who may want to soft-start 2 weeks prior to it anyway?
Without requiring spreadsheets/all the other worky stuff , just a chatty thread to document how a soft start goes compared to the hard and fast bootcamp (not to mention the chat!).

I've been doing soft bootcamp over Christmas:) I have been doing bootcamp since jan and lost loads:). I've been watching for a new bc thread:)

I will be back to it this week, and will join for the 13.

Bronx - I'd be up for that, I usually eat more or less low carb anyway but I have sugar in drinks. If I cold get used to coffee without sugar, I wouldn't find the bootcamp so tough on the 13th

OK - I'll set up a Softstart Bootcamp () thread on 6 Jan.

Ah Biwi you are such a soft touch angel Enjoying having 5 minutes to yourself while it lasts!!
