Here's a hint on how to achieve great things:

The fastest route to success, is the slowest route.

Read it again

The fastest route to success, is the slowest route.

That means the fastest route to sustainable weight loss is by doing it slowly but consistently.  Look at Fiona's result - she hasn't made the top three on any of the weeks, but she has consistenly lost a good amount each week - placing her third overall.

You can apply this mantra to many other things - eg The fastest route to running faster/getting fitter, is taking it slowly. Run too fast too quickly and you will be injured/sore/frustrated and give up.

Melissa - not yet featured in this challenges leader board, but would win it if we looked over the whole year, is a great example of slow and steady wins the race. She did this challenge  earlier in the year and has continued on, to lose a staggering 33kgs since my first record!  I hardly recognise her these days.   She's back, I think, to finish the job off.  Well done Melissa - perhaps you'll share some of your tips with us?

My final welcome to the playing field is Barb who joined the challenge this week.  I expect to see your name up there soon Barb, and I hope you can gain some inspiration from all the others in different stages of their journeys.

I look forward to it. You've done an amazing job and there are many at the beginning of your journey who would like to know they can do it too!
