Well my first weigh in today and I'm really quite gutted as its the heaviest I've been in a long while, but onwards and upwards (or hopefully downwards) and I am hoping to report a loss next week.
I went summer shopping this afternoon, and bought a couple of tops 1 dress size down to hopefully motivate me. I did try a couple of things on and I swear they do something to those mirrors to make you look even more flabby and hideous than usual :mad: so consoled myself with a couple of pairs of sandals which you can never be too flabby for.
Food shop as well, lots of yummy salady and veggie and fresh fruity things and no nasty crisps or choc things, so I'm quite hopeful for this week.
Planning to do a session on my cross trainer shortly while watching Corrie and then sofa floppage with strawberries and grapes and my book before bed.

Drum roll please ............................
I am over the moon to announce a 2LB LOSSThank you Fred
This Means I have done it :T:T:j:j:T:T 4 stone to loose in 2010 DONEI had a tear in my eye when I weighed myself. I cannot believe that I have managed to reach my goal by the summer.
I just want to thank all of you for your wonderful support as I think I would not have continued without posting on here so give yourself a pat on the back
Next question is how much should I aim for now as I still have a longish way to go .......Eric_Pisch wrote: »i must admit i went to the bathroom last night and caught it out of the corner of one eye and crapped myself lol i thought it was a cyberman :rotfl:But I must say somedays when I come home from work I could do with one of those to relieve my stress

Beanie, that is wonderful beyond words. You must be so proud of yourself.
How are you manging to do this consistent losing thing? if you've gor a technique please share it with me - I'm now indanger of exploding I've put so much back on0 -
Thanks Guys for your welcome. I weighed and it was about what I thought it would be. I've had a good first day despite getting quite stressed (although boredom often sends me to the fridge) and being an emotional type of eater I am feeling really pleased that I didn't succumb. Sometimes I do it without even realising! I suddenly realise I am eating a bag of crisps/lump of cheese/bar of choccie etc etc and can't remember how it got there!
So onwards and inwards. Good luck to you all for the next week and thanks for the support.

Missy & Granny~ I always find it easier to loose weight in summer for some reason.
Also cant remember if i said but the neurologist suggested it would be helpful to loose weight.
Suppose its partly about taking responsibilty.

Candyapple I remember that feeling of being the heaviest I'd been at that first weigh in, but you're right it's all downwards from here and hopefully you'll never see that weight again!
AllIwant, you're a star! If I understand it correctly you've met your 12 month weight loss goal in just 6 months?! :T Yipppeeee!!! Let us know what you decide about your next target!
Is everything OK Granny? Miss your posts on here xx
Beanie is that because you find it easier to eat less in the summer, or that you eat roughly the same but the weight inexplicably comes off easier? Just wondered because I've also noticed seasonal patterns to my ability to lose weight. Well done on your losses because you seem to be losing just the right amount for it to be all or mostly body fat, which is perfect! :T0
