STSAfter Chinese takeaway and a decent amount of booze on Saturday, and a bit of hangover food on Sunday, I'm not really surprised at this.Also haven't quite got into the calorie counting fully yet. Am definitely eating better than I was before, and am exercising more, so I do feel a little better in myself. Bit of a slow start, but it's a start.Jan Grocery Challenge 2023: £181.18/£400

small loss of -1lb thanks Brambling will be doing my c25k in a bit week Week 2 run 3. I bought myself a treadmill after Christmas so alternate between walking one day and c25k the other. I am going back to work at some point end of feb so will have to fit it in and hoping the treadmill staring at me from the corner will help.'You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.

Weigh in day for me and am very happy with a -4.5 lb @Brambling 🙂
Managed to stay off the wine (well most nights!) and have had a couple of long walks as well this week which have certainly helped.
Away this weekend so will be eating out a couple of times, just need to make good choices now!46,484 > 0(January):beer:

Hello
Weigh day for me and another STS please Brambling.
Not off the starting block yet! I thought I’d have lost a bit this week as I only had soup and scrambled eggs for 3 days after a dental appointment and was very mindful of carb consumption at mealtimes and got in a couple of long walks.Back to weighing, logging and counting calories for me then for the foreseeable.Todays meals
2 small scrambled eggs with salmon and a spoon of mushed avocado. 2x coffee with cream
Roasted Mediterranean veggies, feta crumbles and splash of balsamic with canned tuna and limp lettuce. Tea with milk x2
Broccoli spinach soup with teensy bit of cheddar grated in
Giant milk choc button x 1 more likely 2Well done everyone and keep going.Old Style Weight Loss Challenge 2025

Hi all. With one day til my weigh in I’ve done it, and have lost 1lb to hit 14st 6. I’ve not been under 14st7 in years so I’m really happy!
Day off work so am heading out for a walk today. 5 miles, a route I don’t know do I expect it to take longer than 5 miles normally would.Here’s hoping to STS tomorrow on weigh day!Grocery Challenge
