[LizzieM]

If you click on the Summer challenge link on Rob's message just above here or on your home page there's a list of options, click on Summer challenge there. Yes the magnum minis were delicious, but they'll be the last for a long time lol xx

ROFL naughty naughty <3

[LizzieM]

Are we going to still count last Monday as the start of the summer challenge? Cos I've had a bad week without you all to keep me in check, lol xx

[Rob]

Ok first off let me apologise for the poor admin support (one reason this site will always be free) to the Summer Challenge.

Whist on holiday the site was hacked and flagged by google as a hacked site the only way I could protect our site users was to delete the site from greece and then re-install the backup on my return (luckily I had taken my last backup on the 5th of May so we only lost a few days of data.

Since returning I have had to go through my server checking every site I host on my server (around 60) to ensure none of those sites had also been hacked as once a hacker gains access to one site its sometimes possible to gain access to the server using php or a mysql injection technique. Thankfully the rest of the server was clean and needed no work.

I currently have the following data for the challenge:

LizzieM
JenJuly82
Harrington
Berni
Susie
Topshaz
donna

Anyone else if you have sent me your challenge data through the website then please advise and ill check in the database for it.

If you want to do the challenge and have not yet filled in the form do it now.

What do you want to do for challenge start date? do you want to move the start date?

Let me know your thoughts.

Hopefully I can give more time to the site in the coming weeks.

Rob

[Susie]

Hi Rob, you'll need to go on holiday to get over the last few days!!! Hope you all had a good time anyway. Any road up, back to the challenge, LET'S COUNT LAST MONDAY AS THE START DATE AS I'VE LOST ABOUT 4LB THIS WEEK If every one else wants to start again, can I do my own Challenge? Mine can be the Real Summer Challenge! Please,please,please

[harrington]

Thankyou Rob for all the hard work! I hope you had a really good holiday.

I would also like to count last week so I think it should start from the 10th may.

[donna]

Hi Rob. Hope your holiday wasn't ruined!

10 May sounds good to me cos i lost 5lb this week!

May have to update my start weight though cos only did my form yesterday.

On 10 may i weighed 15 st 4 lb

Thanks

Hey Rob, I sent my details so just have a nosey for me if you don't mind please

[LizzieM]

I'd like to start this Monday, but only cos I've not lost any weight. Seriously, I think it's only fair to start on the 10th May as so many of the others have done well this week and it appears to be what most people want xx

[spii86]

And I would agree with Lizzie. I wanna start now, but only cause i didn't lose weight and am incredibly jealous

[Susie]

Lizzie, you're an angel, will you put pressure on Rob so he starts the challenge last Monday Anyway,how you doing? Is your last essay history now and are you a real-life employed angel at last

[jenjuly82]

i dont mind starting teh challenge as from 10th may as i lost 2 1/2 lbs that week too...

[Suzi]

Hi rob hope you had a good holiday. i emailed you my details so i hope you can find them as i would like to be in the challenge. i think the challenge should start once you have everyones details. could someone also explain how these challenges normally work as this is my first, rob if you don't have my details i may struggle to get you pics soon as my roads are getting dug up and the idiots cut through my virgin cable and i have no idea when it is to be fixed i am using my mobile to send this message which takes forever
thanks

What makes you think Rob will listen to me? Waitin for essay results, hope I've passed this time, cos if not they won't hold my job for me Anyone starting the challenge late could still join in like the January one couldn't they?

[Rachel_murray]

I'm not doing it.
I've lost my measurements that I posted.
Rob, do you have them??
I can't be bothered to measure myself again

[Rob]

I will have Rach, will also get on top of this challenge and sort everything before the week is out...

[jenjuly82]

im very confused...has the challenge started already or not?
why is there not as much support for this may challenge as there was for the january challenge????
ƸӜƷ

[Rob]

Ok putting this bluntly this challenge has been a complete shambles and that is down to me!

I apologise like I always seem to be doing lately but I would like to propose the challenge officially starts on Tuesday the 1st of June and runs throughout June/July the Challenge would end on Saturday 31st of July.

So it is a full 2 months Challenge.

This would give me this week to recruit more members as currently we have only around 8 members on for this and I will get proactive in getting as many members as possible to start the challenge.

I know many of you have started and lost weight and this will not be overlooked, I will add your weights into the challenge to show how well you done overall.

Please give me feedback about this?

I give you my word if we start it on Tuesday I will have everyone fully organised and all will be clear and fully understand what to do and when to do it.

Thanks

Rob

[Suzi]

sounds good to me.

can you tell me rob if i need to resend my details to you or have you got mine.

suzi

[Rob]

Hi Suzi,

Rob

Nope sorry they not there I wonder if they where lost when i re-instated the website backup after the site problems earlier in the month?

Sorry about this would you please resubmit them for me

[spii86]

Disappointed in you Rob that the one time I actually bother to do them on time (or at all) you lose them

But yesh of course I will Me thinks I should have probably saved them some where, now I have to do them all over and convert them from cm to inches.

[Rob]

ill send you an inches tape measure
