Well according to my scales at home I've lost another 2 pounds. But I also had a weigh in at a physio class I'm going to and they have me showing as below my goal, and that's fully dressed!!! I think the truth of the matter is that my scales are not that accurate but the downward trend has been steady so that's all that matters really.
So put me as down another 2 please!! That leaves me 2 more to shed by the end of March.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe, Old Style Money Saving and Pensions boards.

Hello everybody, hope your weight losses are going well.
I haven't weighed in lately as I KNOW I've put on, my head (which is no excuse) isn't great and one bad day inevitably ruins 4 or 5 good ones.
So I've joined (well, 2mrw) Slimming World, once I'm back to where I was (ie my 3lb loss weight) I'll restart my updates.5 -
I'm exactly the same... Haven't weighed in ages cos I've eaten so badly. I've got high cholesterol and it terrified me for a few weeks, but now I've got my f&&k it attitude back (although with an underlying amount of anxiety!) 🤦 I'm constantly tired, hungry, chasing dopamine. My binge eating is so bad as a result. Trying to get my head back in the game 🙈

Yes, it makes no sense why we do this, we know its no good for us and after a point you even stop enjoying the food anyway so its crazy.Pauper1 said:I'm exactly the same...

But I haven't felt too well this week and I need to curb it.
Its definitely stress, anxiety, downright low mood etc, but its self destructive.7 -
I have been away travelling and put on 1kg3
