Hi everyone, I would like join your forum as I am desperate to lose about 2 stones.

I am reading your stories and I find them inspiring. I hope that 'in those dark days' the stories will keep me motivated.

Current weight = 147 lbs

Welcome to our friendly thread - please keep posting and join in any of the challenges that you want to (you don't have to do any if you don't want to).

Chart day is Wednesday so if you post your loss, gain or sts (stay the same) before 10pm on Wednesday I'll include in the chart

Hello! Thought i'd pop on and see what happening in here!

I'm still knee deep in DIY, which i'm actually not enjoying a great deal! Mess and disorganisation is hard to live with daily but progress is being made.
I am eating a lot better now, i've tried to clean up a bit after the change of season splurging I was doing.

Hope you guys are doing well, losing lots and maintaining with minimal effort!

Hi,

- 2lb since last Wednesday.

Exercise has included :-

Indoor exercise bike.
A few (light) gardening tasks.
Using the outdoor bike to redo bike rides due to previous mileometer malfunction. i.e. so as to update my yearly mileage.
Also, bike trips in relation to another challenge I am doing.

So fredsnail, I'll keep with the 5lb monthly challenge again please. Thanks.

Hooray, SoTW!

STS this week, not too bad considering I've put exercise to one side for now to focus on exams.

- 1 for me this week.

Disappointed but not surprised. Weight loss = 0 lbs.

At the beginning of the week I was doing well with portion control and calorie counting. Yesterday I sipped up and had a takeaway - at least 2500 Kcals.

I'm going to move on from this. It was bad planning as I went out when I was hungry and got the takeaway on the way home. I realised that I could have probably cooked a simple low cal meal in the same time that it took to order and pick up the takeaway
