Hi everyone, can I join you please?
I'm really struggling to lose any weight, I hurt my back several months ago so can't exercise. I've gone from making sure I averaged 10,000 steps a day, to only being able to potter round the house (and even when I was doing all that walking the weight loss was very slow!)
So I'm going to have to be MUCH stricter with what I eat, and I hope that having to admit to you all on here will stop me eating all those "extras"

I'll start on the 5th and I'd like to lose 8 lbs
Dreading weighing in after new year!

Ooh, can I join in here? I want to start dieting from 2nd/3rd Jan (I will be going along to a diet club with a friend) I will just give you my weeks weigh in result to update here on the fri/sat (whenever it's done)

The first week will just be my starting weight but I hope to lose 28lbs. Over the 12week period

Welcome to the gang :j, are you wanting to join in on the 12 week challenge starting on the 5th? (I wasn't going to force people to weigh in over Christmas and New Year, I may be a Dragon but I ain't that cruel! :rotfl:), if you do want to join in I need to know how many pounds you hope to shift between January 5th and March 29th

Hello Dragon/All! :j

can I sneak in at the back of the class, please .

I daren't weigh myself this week, just feel HUGE and uncomfortable, and wubbish. Completely wuuuuubbishhhh.:(

Can I aim for a 7lb loss. I know from old that aiming too high kills motivation.

I've hidden my chocolates from myself, and asked on the grocery challenge if I can freeze slices of my Xmas cake so I don't have to eat it all this week

I have lots of veges in, and am also doing a medical trial where I have to eat lots of green leafy veges, so in theory, if I can get my head in the right place, it'll be simples :rotfl:

Thanks for letting me come back. I promise to do better this time :A

LB xx

The more the merrier LavenderBees - got you down on the list

sjprmc01

Yes! I'm really big! (Around the 17st mark, possibly more now)

I did think I was being a tad over optimistic, but I've been really sedentary lately, a lot has gone on really quick so hoping it will drop off quick! And I plan to exercise/gym.

It's no biggie if I don't achieve it. I'd like to TRY though!
