Hello all, 

Sorry, I forgot to record my weight loss yesterday. It's a 0.5 lbs loss for me this week. Weight loss has slowed down as I'm eating more types of food. Being a slow loser usually, I was a bit worried by the speed that the weight came off at first. Now that I know which food doesn't hurt as much, I need to concentrate on nutrition and maybe a bit more weight loss I think. 

Take care all of you

Brunch - 1 sausage, mushrooms and tomatoes

Hi I am having a week where I feel I just look food and then I feel bloated. So even though I have done a fair bit of running and waking I am not sure it has balanced out with eating a bi too much, so have not weighed in. Will do it next week. Today I just wanted to be outside in the sunshine, so did a timed run and a long walk, so about 10 miles all together. Happy with that.

Hi, checking in to report a 3.5 lb loss this month, I try not to weigh myself often and had 0 in jan as kept eating first half. I comfort eater so have been focusing on checking if eating for hunger or if it's being anxious, bored etc, and the last 5 days kept a food diary (on the basis I was going to do for 7 days and not forever) so I could check and go ok this shouldn't be physical hunger. I'm active on the decluttering thread and really want to do clothes (only fit in about 5-7%) but waiting for the loss I set out for and then to be manageable, sorting out some emotional baggage along the way. So while not alot for 2 months is a big step lying behind it.

I have to report yet another 2 lb gain.
(NHS BMI calculator says 21.7 and to maintain weight but I really want to move it down and hope to at least be back to where I was on 1 January by the end of the quarter.)

Good evening, Everyone! 
 

Looks like lots of good work going on with weight losses and exercising. Well done 👏👏👏
 
Very best wishes to those who are unwell.
  
Many thanks for kind words after last week’s debâcle, luckily things have been a bit better this week. I’m sorry I haven’t been posting more often, but I’ve cut back on my (horrendous! humongous!!) online use for Lent. Hopefully come choccy egg time I’ll be back boring you all with my food diary.
 

Weighing in with a loss of 2lb. Easy on, but oh so slowly off.

Today’s menu
B - porridge with berries
D - baked sage-crusted pork leg steak with onion, parsnip and broccoli; stewed blackberries & apple with yogurt
T - salmon with salad of chicory, tomatoes, olives and cucumber; pear (naked and unadorned!)
No snacks (so far 🤞)
 
Have a good, safe and healthy week, Everyone!

Good morning everyone 
Brambling, I am over the moon to report an 8lb loss. This is over 2 weeks and includes a hospital stay but I am really excited as it takes me into the next stone down bracket. I feel quite emotional over it really and I want to build on it now. I have been eating quite a lot due to trying to distract myself from pain but I have tried hard to not eat too much rubbish and cut down on my portions. 

Tonight I am cooking dirty rice which is a concoction of lean pork mince, rice, peppers and onions and whatever else I can chuck in veg-wise and cajun spices. It is very tasty and low fat and best of all it is all made in the one pan. Lunch will be a spiced butternut squash soup and I fancy porridge for breakfast but I will have to wait for help to make that. 

Hope you all have a great day and make good choices, take care xx
