1.5 off this week. 7.5 in the last 4

Started at 17 weeks to Xmas, looking to lose 17 lbs

week 1: - 3 lbs
week 2: - 4 lbs
week 3: - 1 lbs
week 4: - 1 lbs (15st 8lbs)

Total loss on Xmas challenge 9lbs

Looks like in on the slow down now after the initial fast start but thats to be expected, at lease its still going down

I'm really really late but hope I can join in the challenge! (Been a bit of a lurker too so just going to jump in!)...

Lost about a stone so far and have another one to go which I'll hopefully manage to do for Christmas/New Year

Welcome to the forum Ellie. Feel free any lurkers to join in.

Its never to late Ellie

Thats great Diane more than half way there

Welcome Ellie to the forum. As Veggie said all lurkers are more than welcome.

thanks for the welcomes everyone! gosh, everyone's so friendly, should have said hi sooner!!

I stood on the scales this morning and according to them am 16 stone 5lb I dont think that can be right that means ave lost 7lb I think something is wrong somewhere. So will prob sort itself out next week lol.

Week 0 Aug 20th = 18 wks and 18lbs to lose.
Week 1 Aug 27th = 0lbs lost, 18lbs to lose.
Week 2 Sept 3rd = 3lbs lost, 15lbs to lose.
Week 3 Sept 10th = 0lbs lost, 15lbs to lose.
Week 4 Sept 17th = 0lbs lost, 15lbs to lose.
Week 5 Sept 24th = 3lbs lost, 12lbs to lose.
Week 6 Oct 1st = 1lb lost, 11lbs to lose.

I'd happily believe my scales if they said I'd lost 7lb.

2 lbs down this week - woo hoo!!!

Thanks for the welcome, knightbabe - and well done on your weightloss.

Down 2.5 on my 4th weigh, 3.5 total (i gained the week before last) which means i need to lose 1.5 next week to bring me up to my pound a week goal. going well though and doing paul mckenna "i can make you thin" at same time as weightwatchers

Well as I said in the other weight thread I am now 96.6 kg - the highest since March I think. - 15st 2 I think it is . Back to blasted cottage cheese from now on.

lol Knightbabe I wish I could believe them but I know its lies and if I believe them i'm going to be in for a big let down next monday lol.
