Finishing weight of 9st 6.8lbs so I've lost just over 2lbs in 3 months 🤦♀️ no surprises though - the last 7 weeks of it were filled with drinking and eating rubbish because I felt sorry for myself - no more of that for me but it does mean that I've got a lot to do next quarter! 😳😂DNF: £708.92/£1000

Total loss for the quarter is 21.4lbsCommon sense is not common
Small progress is still progress

Weight hardly budged this quarter - so will say STS for final weigh-in.
I'm off to the next quarter's thread now to enlist for that.
See you there.

Hi all and Brambling as noted I dropped out after a bad week. I have had to focus on other things like work and sorting out my mental health. All is pretty much good and I'm back doing bits of running and swimming, so will be joining again for 3. quarter. I will weigh in next week and interested to see if I start (hopefully) lower than 2. quarter.Isa help to buy: 1000/3000 33%
Emergency fund: 100/1000 10%
Weight loose 8.6 kg - while having fun. 0/8.6 0%
