    Hi, can I join in?

    My starting weight is 9st5 and according to the (lovely) nurse who weighed me and took my BP for the pill, i've gained 2 stone since late 2009. Although she agreed that 7st5 wasn't a hiealthy weight to begin with she added that I should be around the 8st5 mark. TBH I have noticed that my clothes are getting tighter and I have no energy :(.

    7 lbs off this month would be fab.

    I'm moving mid December and my new house is right beside the local pool and gym so as of then I have no excuse (unless it snows haha) Plus all that moving heavy furniture should help a bit, but that December not November. I'll probably do weigh ins on Friday nights as thats the only time I have access to scales.

    Of course you can join, the more the merrier :D

  • Monday = Yoga/pilates
    Tuesday = Gym
    Thursday = Zumba
    Friday = Swimming

    If I don't shift anything when I weigh in on monday it shan't be for want of trying :p

    How is everyone else doing this week? I'm finding it hard to keep away from the crisps (impossible actually :o).

    Have a good weekend peeps! xx

    Well after my weekend of decadence last weekend (friends staying over for the weekend) I am back tracking and logging my calories and I am determined to get below 300 pounds by the end of the month :eek:

    Weighed myself this morning - lost 1/2 lb so I am now 12 stone 6.

    Bit disappointed really, although I suppose it's still a step in the right direction. I was 14 stone when I started. Yesterday I was moaning that half my clothes are too big now!

    Next week I am on holiday, so I am not holding out much hopes for losing any more that week.
  • Hi Dragon and everyone else, just a measly half pound for me too:( I am getting a bit fed up with my slow progress. I seem to do alright at the beginning of the week only for things to go to pot at the weekend. I denied the entire family desert last night as well in preparation for this mornings weigh in.;)

    Things will go to pot tonight for certain. My husband and I are celebrating the fact that we have a zero balance in our offset mortgage.I cashed in our last ISA last week just before the stock market fell again:D We were going to go out to a restaurant until we realised that both of our teenagers(who actually have a social life) were going out and that we will have to stay in and babysit the dogs, as it is fireworks night,a take away it is then:rotfl::rotfl:
    Enough money to live on so retired early...planning to see where life takes me:D

    That's true, and I am now a size 16 instead of an 18.

    Oh good grief I feel like I'm in a confessional...forgive me Dragon for I have pigged out and put on 2lbs this week :eek:
    I would like to say I'm surprised but I'm not - I've been buying chocolate bars at every opportunity and then ended last night with a big burger and 4 doughnuts (yes I bought a bag to share with hubby but ate them all myself :o )
    E- must try harder
