I could have wrote your last post. You sound exactly the same as me. I want to shift about 2 stone as well.

Hey, can you include me in this months challenge, need to get my weight down another half a stone so this will give me that little bit of extra motivation to keep up the good work for this month coming. So I am aiming for a 7lb loss and I will be a happy bunny!

I weigh myself on mondays at the gym so will be starting this challenge from whatever weight I am this coming Monday.

JackieGlasgow You sound so positive hope you can stick with it, you sure sound motivated enough. Think I need to give myself a little pep talk

I am great at pep talks, now I need to prove to myself that I'm NOT all mouth and no trousers!:rotfl:

I know all the things I do wrong but can't seem to break out of the self sabotage cycle. Am hoping this thread will help me pick the right choices, need to work on portion control, snacking and just what i eat generally (I hate fruit ).

I just wanted to say, you don't have to be a fruitaholic for the weightloss to work. I like fruit but it makes me hungry (fruit sugar?) so I don't eat very much of it. I don't like salads so I haven't had many of them either since commencing the diet and I've had a really steady, positive weight loss It's all about knowing what works for you. If you snack a lot, is there any way you can just get rid of all the snacky things in the house and see if that helps break the cycle?

Hi all

Well the last week of April went well for me and I managed to lose 2lbs. So I am definately sticking to my new regime. I am absolutely determined to lose 7lbs in May as I only have 2 months to get back into some of my summer clothes.

Off to menu plan for this week.

Hi Dragon, can you please put me down for 140lbs starting weight? Thanks xo

Can I join in too? I've been lurking the last couple of months and am ready now to actually give it a go. I will aim for the 7lbs in May. I weighed myself last night at the gym so have a starting weight of 147lbs

Good luck everyone I have two targets this month - I need to lose 3lbs to cross the next stone weight loss mark, and 6lbs to be in the 11 stones. The wedding is in a month and I'd love to have lost the 6lbs by then but realistically I'd be happy with the 3lbs off. Either is a nice psychological barrier for me.

Maisie, I'd love to see your menu plan if you don't mind sharing it. I'm always after new ideas.
