The Ultimate Biggest Losers - counting the pennies, losing the pounds

Congrats to all the losers and to the gainers such as myself for sticking with it! But the biggest congratulations go to Caeraugirl who is our loser of the week :T



Cinny have you tried the Bach Remedy kit yet? Where was it from? This sounds like something I need in my life! Also exciting news on your OHs job! Has he got something else lined up?

I dragged myself to the gym on Saturday and am still limping today - even though I really didn't do that much! I really want a good loss this week - I seem to be completely stuck at the moment.

Hi, would it be ok to join? I've tried everything to lose weight and found the only thing that does it is good old fashioned healthy eating and exercise!lol Am trying to find the cheapest way of losing weight.I.e. not spending ANYTHING extra, and hopefully make a lifestyle change. I have at least 3stone to lose, and will weigh in the morning and report back - Best of luck to you all :-) xx

Hi Skintandscared and welcome! If you let me know your starting weight (either post it up or pm me) I will gladly add you to the chart. Healthy eating, cooking from scrath etc can definitely be lots cheaper, the kay is planning I think so you only buy wat you need and don;t get carried away buying too much and having to throw lots out. My DH is a picky eater so any veg I buy I basically have to eat myself, I struggle getting a balance between getting a variety and not overbuying. I do buy some frozen stuff but shop at Aldi where there isn't a huge selection. I try to make and freeze soup with anything left when I'm organised enough.

I am not feeling good about weigh in tomorrow even though I've had a reasonably good week. Does anyone else weigh themselves throughout the week? I think next week I'm going to try not to as it winds me up - plus if it's going well I throw caution to the wind and eat too much for the rest of the week!

Good luck everyone tomorrow!

Well the chart shouldn't take long this week! I lost 1lb which I was ok with but not ecstatic. Maybe its time to bring the challenge to a close?

Hi Shrimpy, sorry forgot to post yesterday - probably subconsciously stopped myself from doing it as have regained a pound..... Will understand if you feel it's time to wrap it up though. I've definitely posted much less than I should in recent weeks :-(

Hi Shrimpy,
I have been away for work and would not be weighing in this week cos I'm not at home

Hi sorry I'm late. My scales have completly given up the ghost so I had to wait til I could weigh at my mums again which was today. This week I've lost 2lbs which I am really happy about :j

Just back from holiday and I got engaged! Did quite a bit of over indulging so I will weigh in this weekend, eep. Then it's thin bride plan time!

Hi all, I would love to join in, as I really need to lose weight and hopefully the support here will help to keep me motivated and focused. I weigh 15 stones and 12 pounds today.

Archersluck congratulations on getting engaged. Happy planing for your wedding!
