  • Good luck on the weigh in tomorrow SB

    Thanks Ellie, I was thinking about getting off another 3 pounds so I can say goobye to the 250's forever
  • Wow, Cleophas, you made your goal with time to spare. Way to go!

    I'm reporting a 1.8 lb loss this week putting me at 212.8 lbs.

    Good luck, everyone.
  • Hello ladies! Sorry to not have been around too much this week...June has been shaping up to be a pretty wild month for me...

    I am happy to report another loss this week though! I WI this morning at 146.5...Unfortunately still a ways from my goal...but still in the right direction!
  • Hi everyone, I'm done 3.5lbs this week so at the halfway point. Not sure if i'll get there but i'll try my best!
  • Me. down just 1lb!

    I did diddly this week, and I ate ice cream, a lot of ice cream!

    The big question is can we all join Cleophas and be winners? So I am going to be very American and reaffirm my goal!


    I promise to do better, to work harder, eat less and to lose the whole 14lbs by the end of the month

    Scarily that means 8lbs in 2 weeks!!!!! But as there have been 3 and 4lb losses posted I could do it, so I will!!!

  • Hey All,

    Posting today, as am away on business for the whole rest of the week (lets see how well that works for the diet!!!!)

    Anyway
    SW: 234
    CW: 224
    GW:217

    loss this week 2lb
    Total loss 10lb

    My scales seems to have developed quite a sticky needle at the moment, but I SHALL prevail!
  • I will never understand weight loss.

    3lb lost. Weighed myself today instead of tomorrow, won't be tomorrow in case I'm heavier on Tuesdays :-) Now 241lb BUT I missed 2 days of exercise, had KFC on Saturday (though only had 2 pieces of chicken and a few chips not many). and have generally been eating less healthily than the previous 10-12 weeks (though have tried to stay roughly within calories, but probably was higher than previous weeks). Need to get back to eating more healthily as I don't think a reasonable amount of weight loss will continue if I don't.

    3lb to go to mini goal. Hopefully I can do it. Really want to be below 17 stones - will be a big achievement for me.
  • ive lost motivation, although joined this in late may, i did expect to lose a little more than this.
    im struggling getting lower than 10.2- 10.1...

    gonna hit the gym tomorrow and up the fitness for the next 2 months...anyone aiming to keep this going for longer than the end of june? how about the end of july?

    went to have hair done on the weekend, (family run business) have known them all for years and years, and they all just looked at me and said....'oh your looking relaxed?!!' translated to...hey you podge!!

    im not looking for a super bod, just to lose another half a stone before i go on hols....ive never felt so massive!! humph!! im pear shaped though which means that the weight seems to come off my boobs and top half but i still have a massive bum!!

    ladies....help!!
  • I hope I get another pound this week.....
  • Don't worry, touchmytoes, I'll probably set up a Jumping July Challenge - it may even involve skipping ropes, trampolines, rebounders, pogo sticks and anything else that makes us work those legs!



    Just keep on plugging at it. It'll work eventually (she hopes)
  • aaw come on....(i tell myself this) 5 custard creams ,a glass of the red stuff last night too...and 2 packets of crisps today!! havent lost havent put on this week and havent done ANYTHING...im ashamed of myself ...all those false promises about the gym...came down to nothing...

    You stayed the same even though you are all those custard creams and crisps That's good Watch the salt in soup - drink lots of water too to help with a good weight loss.
  • OMG, this is slooooooow-going! My last report was June 3 and I was at 257, so I've only lost one lb. to 256 in 15 days!!!! That is slow, even for me.

    I have been on-plan the whole time, the only thing I can think of is to up my exercise. I sure would like to lose that next 3 pounds by June 27, but it's only 9 days away!!! Arghghghghgh.

    One possibility -- I have noticed that I do hover around a weight for awhile, and then when I lose it's usually in 2 or 3 lb. increments overnight. Since I've been in the "hovering" stage for awhile, I'm praying for another semi-miracle!

    SW (May 17) .... 262
    CW (June 18) ... 256
    GW (June 27).... 253
  • I'm feeling quite smug, as usually when i go away on business is tough tough tough, but 3 out of 4 nights, i'v managed to stay in places with Gyms, and have actually used them!!! i even purchased a pair of speedo togs to go for a swim, that's my first outing in a swim suit for a long long time....why oh why do the sporty ones have the backs cut out to expose the ever present back flab...i mean why?
    Think i might post my weight again this week, as am dying to hop on the scales when I get home! Hope i'm not disappointed
