Weigh In results (and bear in mind this is my first week) - 9.5lbs down :D

Wow everyone we are heading in the right direction this month congrats on all your losses..Missybct 9.5 pounds thats really well ..keep up the good work..

I personally havent been doing my exercises.. I blamed it on Tom but i was haveing a lazy week. I managed to stay on plan but i have sabotagers and this morning i looked in my kitchen i found cupcakes ... Oh my lucky i have some will power..lol

Wow Tiara, that is some serious will power, I don't know if I'd be able to resist!! I'm really pleased with myself, I haven't actually done any real exercise, but I've stayed on plan food wise and although it's only been 2 whole days, the excess weight is flying off so must have just been water as I'd thought. It's a great boost to my confidence though and makes me more determined to stay on plan :D

I'm off to drink some water to make sure it keeps flying off ;)

going2bhealthy.. Im happy you are doing well with your eating.. For the cupcakes that were in my kitchen this morning i am proud to say they have all vanished.. dont worrie i didnt eat them but the rest of my house did.. Im thankful for it It is so true Out of sight out of mind..or in this case my stomach..lol Looking forward to weighing in 2mo im feeling lucky..lol

Has anyone say Valentines Day? I know im way late but i just saw it and i liked it. I didnt love it but i thought it was a nice story.. Im really looking forward to watching The last song with miley cyrus and Remember me. They both look like they have a good story line also i like a few actors and actress in them...

My Mum saw Valentines Day and seemed to really enjoy it. My recent film was Alice in Wonderland, which I LOVED. Not the best I've ever seen, but it was ace. Especially with the crazy Scottish hare :D

YAYAYAYAY after being at a standstill all week i weighed in this morning and have lost 2lbs which means i am officially no longer overweight!

So i now weigh 146lbs - that's a BMI of just under 25 and a 5 stone 1lb weight loss!

thanks everyone for helping me get there! i'm gonna go dance around my front room with joy :D:D:D:D:D

:carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot::carrot::c arrot:
Well done!!!!! I am still waiting for the day I am "just" overweight.

You should be really proud of yourself. You are now one of the thin people!!!

Congratulations Sophie! Both on the overall weight loss and the healthy BMI - that's fantastic!

cheers ladies argh that's weird! i still find it really hard to think of myself as thin as i've been overweight ever since i was a teenager.

I'm really struggling with the concept that people that who don't know me and don't know how much weight i've lost would look at me and think i'm an average weight. And i know that sounds crazy because i look at people that are the same size or possibly even bigger than i am and i think they look slim. It's very strange.

I think old habits die hard - I still avoid camera's, cover the tops of my arms and rarely wear skirts or dresses and no matter what weight i get to i think i'll always be a fat girl on the inside... just a happier one!

sophiebean congrats ... i cant wait to join you..
yossarianlives... Alice in wonderland looks crazy..I might see it with a friend...

Oh Sophie, that's amazing news!! and it is still fresh in my mind, so I know exactly how you feel...well done xx

Hey all, well done on lots of good losses this week...
I managed a loss myself, down to 162, so -2lbs.

did lots of running, and am going to brave the outdoors again now, I am really anxious to be done with all of this and get to goal, so close...
(I know I won't actually be done with anything, but more the mental anguish part of trying to lose weight...i am ready for the differnent mental anguish of maintaining now!!!!!)

Well done Sophie! That's so amazing :) I'm so happy for you!!! Ellie, you're so close now too! It's so exciting! Never forget how hard you've worked for this - you guys deserve all the happiness it will bring you :)


I'm still at 207. Ugh. I am CLEARLY not working hard enough. I only made it back to the gym for the first time two days ago though! Shame on me! Definitely need to get back into the losing weight mindset. It's like I'm on a self-destructing mission! At least I haven't gained weight. That's something.

Well done Tiara for avoiding the cupcakes! And to all you guys for losing :)

I know what you mean - I'm really keen to get to losing part of it over with now even though I know I can't take my eye off the ball when maintaining. I've still got 12lb to lose though so I'm a bit further away than you.

beescwee, I think the same about not having gained weight. I'm learning to maintain before my time, LOL.

Hey Beescwee.....you need a big push now, and i think getting to under 200 will be a big motivating factor...so just focus on those 8lbs and keep the head down, i know you'll do it...

it's so funny how we actually all think the same, and have the same issues loraM.
Also Sophie, as I feel exactly the same as you re finding my place in the world as a thin person...

PS down another lb this a.m, not sure if it will stay off, but might as well post it
so now at 161! only 1/2 a stone to go, and I have lost just 1lb under 9st all together now.
Was supposed to be re-introducing carbs the last few weeks, but I couldn't bring myself to do it properly when I had still a stone to go....but I have to be realistic for this last bit, and do it slowly...so will be eating porridge today, have it soaking as we speak...the problem is that I may just maintain at this weight for a while with more food every day - and I wish I could just get to the 11st before adding more food in, but this is the important last bit, and I need to do it slow - scary

Sophiebean big congrats to you!! :yay:

And congrats to everyone else whose lost too! :)

Beescwee, at least you're back at the gym so that's something positive too :)

Here's my WI day stats:
SW 180.4

Well done ladies this was a very good week .. Where is everyone eles we are missing you.. Trudiha, bakewell,beescwee, eyas42, hopefulchick, ... This month isnt over yet we can accomplish our goal..

Wow well done sophiebean! That's a great loss (and great name btw - I just had twins and called one of them Sophie hehe).

I've been moving it with you ladies for a week now so I decided to weigh myself this morning....


.... 178lbs!!! I can't believe it! I've reached my goal weight for April in a week! I haven't even started excercising (although do need to) I've just cut all the crap out from my diet and been eating 'normal' portion sizes!

I'm a bit disapointed, though as I still look my biggest since I had the girls :( I just need to believe that by the time I loose all the extra weight I WILL look different!

I'm TOMing just now, so I'm gonna skip this weigh-in... it would only be depressing and terrifying...

Congrats everyone on your losses! :D

Hi everyone, hope its going well for you all.
I somehow managed to lose 3lbs the first week of march and 2lbs the second week but seem to have completely lost motivation now and just want to lie on the sofa and eat the easter eggs my mum very helpfully brought me at the weekend!
Does anyone have any tips to motivate myself through this laziness?
Good luck!

Well done to everyone who's lost!

Ellie, beescwee, Sanna Maria, TIARA thanks for the nice comments :)

CurlyWurly thankyou & congrats on the birth of your twins. plus you deserve a congrats on having such good taste in names! :D

I am also suffering the nasty bloated effects of the T.O.M so i think i'll join yossarianlives and wait till the end of the week to weigh myself. I think my heart may break if i see my BMI bounce back up into overweight.

hopefulchick i struggle with finding motivation too, but i just keep thinking about how far i've come and how i can't stop now. You've done really well so far this month - 5lbs is an amazing loss for 2 weeks! So well done you! xx

I toughed it out and weighed in although TOTM is still going on and I still feel a bit of bloat. Stayed the same.

One more week and I'll call it a plateau, but not yet. I'm not really sure what to do if that happens. I have been eating one more point per day than I'd normally do at this weight, just because I didn't want to drop further, but now I think it's time to try that. Either that or maintain for a while before restarting again in a couple of months, but I'm very reluctant to do that when I bought clothes last week that are a tad too tight. A few more lbs and they'll be good to wear.

Urgh, I wish TOM was over, I'm getting closer to 190 every week... grrr.

Also, in the essence of procrastination, I keep having a dream that I'm married to Seeley Booth from Bones:

I wish!

yossarianlives I'd prefer Johnny Depp myself!

Gave in and weighed myself and much to my surprise i've lost another pound, yay! this puts me at 145lbs :)

I took some new pics to show my progress :)

Am full of the joys of spring after going on a walk/run today. I haven't been exercising outside for ages, I've really got to fit that into my life again.

Guys, you have to check out our very own success story.....
Well done Sophie, you just look fantastic

Thankyou so much ellie - honestly you've all really helped me get to this point - so thankyou :)

Congratulations Sophie, you look stunning, what an amazing achievement and a big inspiration :)

Congrats, I'm so excited for you! You look amazing! :D

I need someone to take my bank card off me, I just keep SPENDING. You know that advert that's on TV all the time just now for Final Fantasy XIII with Leona Lewis as the soundtrack? I bought it just for how it looks! £40 for a game... and I'm not even that interested in it... URGH

Also, my BF is writing his dissertation (due on Monday LOL) so I stay up really late, drinking Coca Cola, and watching Brit Cops: Zero Tolerance, Nightwatch with Steve Scott, Cops on Camera until 2 or 3am? URGH

I hope everyone else is having a good weekend!

Ugh. Doubt I'll see the loss that takes me to my March goal this week. Drank 10,000 pints of Guinness on St Patrick's day and I STILL feel hungover and icky.

Will keep soldiering on regardless, who knows, might lose it next week, but let's see what tomorrow brings...

Hi Everyone......

I am same this week urgh!

I've weighed in at 193.6lbs.

Urgh I'm so sick of the 190s...

Sophiebean, wow! I went to have a look at your pics and I just was speechless, amazing!

Yossarianlives, hope you get unstuck soon!

I've managed to lose some this week, which is a bit of a surprise considering I haven't worked out that much this week and eaten some junk too. I'll take it though :)

SW 180.4
CW 174.4 (-2.2 from last week)
GW 170

2lbs down this week. New weight 176lbs :)

Well done Sophie, you look amazing! :) I'm still the same, but it's TOM at the moment so hopefully that means I'm due a wee whoosh this week? Good luck everyone...x

Okay, so bit of a NSV at the gym yesterday. So, I don't run. I have damaged cartilage in my knee (since playing hockey at high school/county level). I decided to go for it on the treadmill... I ran for about 5 minutes at 9.5! I'm paying for it today... my legs hurt.

I was kind of disheartened when I weighed in this morning, as I had made about a 900/1000cal deficit, and there was no shift AT ALL on the scale. But then when I started moving I realised how much my legs HURT, so I'm hoping tomorrow will be a different story. :D

Well done SannaMaria and CurlyWurly on your >2lb losses! I'm so jealous! You must feel ace!

Down to 177lb after a 10 day stall :) Weight has been up and down a lot due to water weight so was reluctant to post until I'd been 177 for a few days so passed this month's goal by 1 pound and more importantly I'm no longer obese :) :) :) That hasn't really sunk in yet after being so heavy for so many years. Starting to get a lot of hints from people that I don't need to lsoe more weight - I do still look like I have weight to lose and I'm a big build so no idea why people are seeign me as being so thin.

Sophie you look great so well done :) :)

Hope everyone else is doing well.
