  • Hi All

    2lbs off for me this week. Payday in a few days so will look forward to updating £ lost next week.

    2 HH - Loss for September = 3lb, total loss in 2013 = 2 stone 10 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £14 385

    Good luck everyone

  • Hi all,
    Week 3 for me and I've lost 6.5 pounds total from the start. I would have like it to have been higher but it seems to be resistant to budge this time round, which is frustrating. Still, it is over the 2 pounds a week I was aiming for so I shouldn't complain.

    Not a lot of movement from the sofa but cake shelf seems to have reduced which means I'm much more comfortable sitting here.

    This week's plans are:
    Lose another 2 pounds.
    Switch to soups which are filling and warming.
    Exercise - whole day of walking planned and a few physical things to do in the house
    I bought a travel pack of sweeteners so no excuses to have sugar when out and about.

    Stay good everyone

    The view Im taking Cottie is as long as its in the right direction then all is good. Slow loss will be more sustainable too. I used to want big numbers then get dejected and pack it in. I've lost nearly 3 stone in 5 months and loving it. Want to loose another 3 though, been on slow loss for a while but that's fine.

    Good idea re sweeteners. The active stuff will come.

    Have been away and naughty with carbs so have gained 5lbs this week. Payday gone so have updated £ lost too.

    2 HH - Loss for September = 2lb gain, total loss in 2013 = 2 stone 5 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £15 774.

    Good luck everyone

    Morning All

    Pleased to report that after falling off the wagon for a few days last week I have been back in the low carb zone and have lost 9lb. Have hit the 3 stone barrier, yay. Hoping to loose 2lb a week in the run up to Christmas which would be another 1.5 stone. Fingers crossed.

    Also made an overpayment to Barclay card, hoping to do the same on payday at the end of the month to see that one off too and get rid of the 12% interest.

    2 HH - Loss for October = 9lb loss, total loss in 2013 = 3 stone 0 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £15 976.

    Not a great week in low carb land as had a bad cold and needed cough medicine and a few nips of alcohol! Consequently have gained a 1lb this week.

    Buried deep and paid £490 off the last of Barclaycard though :)

    So, overall a reasonable week.

    2 HH - Loss for October = 8lb loss, total loss in 2013 = 2 stone 13 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £16 466

    Anyone else around?!!!

    Naughty HH had some beers last night. Not paying for it on the scales (yet!) although can't say my body or head feels good for it lol. Lost 4lb this week.

    9 weeks to Christmas. If I can loose 2lb per week 18lb would take me to 4.5 stone weight loss, fingers crossed.

    Payday in 5 days so will be able to update £s lost too next week when I post. Barclay card acknowledged I have paid the balance off and closed the account and sent me a don't darken our doorstep again. Face, bothered, NOOOOOOO!

    2 HH - Loss for October = 12lb loss, total loss in 2013 =3 stone 3 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £16 466

    Anyone else joining in the run up to Christmas?

    1lb for me for this week.

    Haven't swam for three weeks due to a lingering cold but hope to be back to it this week.

    Payday too so an update there also.

    2 HH - Loss for October = 13lb loss, total loss in 2013 =3 stone 4 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £17 255

  • Hi

    Late weigh in for me as been away for the weekend. Unsurprisingly some indulgences have led to a 5lb weight gain this week. Must get focussed for the week ahead.

    2 HH - 5lb gain, total loss in 2013 = 2 stone 13 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £17 255.

    Another late weigh in as been to see friends. Status quo, no gain no loss. Was focussed at the start but just had a couple of relaxed days with friends. Coupled with being away with work am comfortable with it but don't want to slip back any further and still have my eye on another stone loss by Xmas.

    2 HH - 0lb weight loss, total loss in 2013 = 2 stone 13 lb, £1's lost in 2013 = £17 255.
