    I don't think there is any hope for me. Not if I couldn't eat jellies. Save yourselves...I'll be ok :(

    I haven't wanted chocolate either. But I'm sure we will recover.

    One whole Cadbury bar and two chocolate brownies consumed in 2 days. I'm living large and enjoying every bite.....BUT, I'll be ready to start fresh tomorrow. I'm going to alter what I'm giving up a little....will make final VICE decision by midnight tonight! (I'm assuming I'm not alone in this VICE challenge thingy....)

    Is that all. I've put away 4 packs of biscuits in 2 days!

    So next challenge hmmm

    A staple - something you eat or drink almost everyday
    A vice - something not good for you
    A plank - at least 60 secs
    A habit - stop it

    Everyday
    30 days

    No forfeits. Simply, can you do it? Go hard!

    Any other ideas?

    Given that I've just eaten 4 cup cakes at work - freebies from Sports & Social, I could probably do with this :D

    What is the benefit in giving up coffee? (genuine question)

    I remember someone once telling me that coffee affects your ability to use fat and as a result you struggle to lose weight.






    I never spoke to him again!! ;)

    It exacerbates my IBS which has gone into overdrive since the dct tummy bug. I have to eat very carefully to let that calm down. But coffee is also a crutch (along with sugar) when, like me, you suffer from bouts of chronic tiredness - you crave those things! So Im taking it out of the equation and working on a cleaner diet to see if the fatigue improves.

    as i hadn't had my first of many coffees today i read that as ITB, and wondered how on earth coffee could affect a thick band of tissue

    that alone is proof to me i should stick with the coffee :)

    Is the 300 burpee in one day challenge on Satruday not enough for you? :)

    I reckon 25 burpees per hour is the way to go. Could be fun in work getting customers to join in each hour :D

    I think we should it the same as last year - do the 500 calorie one for the junk food. For things like coffee that you can't necessarily calorie count pick a number of coffees a week/month you're 'allowed'

    Last years punishments were pretty sick..

    Only one logical answer to this - more coffee!

    I, by the way, am starting a rehash of this now...250 calories of my vice (soft drinks and chocolate) for the remainder of the month...and full swing next month.

    Who else is in? :pac:
