I'm back but it's not been good. I've put on 4lbs since I was last here, I have got no chance of completing the challenge now.
I'm now hoping to lose 7lbs from today.
Well done on all the losses

Hope everyone has a good weekend.0 -

Well done to all the losers. Unfortunately I've put on 2lbs again! :mad: I've been over my calorie goal 3 days this week, and I'll probably go over today and tomorrow. Went to the gym for a couple of hours on Wednesday, but apart from that my only exercise has been walking to and from work, and a walk to the post office and back.

I really must try harder from now on, Christmas is getting so close now and I know I will put on a bit then, and I don't want to have too much to lose again after.Weight loss challenge 2/10lbs

Now 187.2lb... hubby weighed himself this morning and he's a stone lighter than I am, so I'm sulking now!
Ooh, I know how you feel, for quite a while I wouldn't tell my tall fit sons what I weighed because it was a lot more than them, embarrassing!
savesummore...8 chips :eek: that's ridiculous.
I've been soooooo hungry this week, the first week back dieting is hard, isn't it?
Haven't been that good, but have lost 1 lb.
Meant to say, I failed miserably at No Choctober, but on the bright side I managed No Pizza...it's a least 2 months since I had a pizza, I'm amazed at myself
