Brambling - please record a further 1lb loss for me. So that will be 3 of the hoped for 4 lbs gone over the quarter (as I don't expect any more over the next 2 days).
Yesterday I had a health assessment with a doctor. In advance I'd suggested my weight as 54 kg. The scales at the hospital said 55.5 kg which, given I was was wearing medium weight rather than summer clothing and it wasn't the beginning of the day, sounds not too bad. Unfortunately it seems my calcium intake may not be optimal and therefore I should have more cheese, biscuits, cake, oranges, custard, ice cream, and chocolate!!!! Hence why I expect no further reduction this quarter.5 -

Hi I kept my good numbers on paper but that is not the whole story. I will be checking back in in July, and hopefully not be overwhelmed and break any arms or other limbs. I am a bit to dependent on exercise! I need to eat more healthily so will be working on my food habits over the summer.
Hope everybody is enjoying the summer and I will see you all in July/3. quarter.Isa help to buy: 1000/3000 33%

Hi
Well done on the losses.
I’m delaying weighing in till tomorrow as no point having final one so close to today and it also gives me another day to balance the weekend, I’m still very bloated though so not holding out much hope lol.
Today is another lower end of the range of calories and carb grams day.
Breakfast: poached eggs and mushed avocado; 2 coffees with cream
Other meal: chicken and cheddar salad; cup of tea with milkOld Style Weight Loss Challenge 2025
