Old Style Weight Loss 2021 - Quarter 1
Comments

I’m very happy for you to carry on, @Brambling - and thank you for your accurate updatings this quarter.
I’d like to put myself down to lose 16lbs, please, as I can’t remember what I looked like at 10.5 stones! It’s been 11 years...

Tea - veg bake with halloumi plus PSB.8 -
I got completely derailed again albeit now by good news, a promotion. I’ve no idea what my current weight is but I’m going to start afresh for Qtr 2, I’m going to set myself a target of 14lbs. Going to charge my Fitbit back up tonight and get that on my wrist. It’s an absolute necessity for me to get some weight off ASAP, so I need to stop messing around and just get on with it. Looking forward to supporting each other In Q2!7

Brambling - yes, please continue with the service!
I'll be reporting back on Wednesday or Thursday to admit to my (lack of) achievement this quarter. Worried by the last two days when I've had more than 2000 calories/day. However, on Sunday I did resist buying a big chocolate cake but, on the other hand, I've been finishing off some shortbread which had been in the cupboard for ages and had a best before date in February. Today I've had the last of my Christmas blue stilton (survived very well in a cold fridge).

Thank you for your kind thoughts folks and yes please Brambling, another challenge if you would be so kind. Our cat Pixel weighs 7lbs so I'm thinking of trying to lose 7lbs in the next challenge. I can relate it to a quarter cat, a half cat and maybe even a whole cat by the end of the challenge5

Ladies I'll catch-up weigh ins tomorrow from my laptop when I create the next challenge ready for the 1st - where has the quarter gone 🙂
