I'd like to update my weight this week as 1.5 gain as I've actually weighed in at 18 stone 6 and a half.
Saturday night is going to be tricky as I'm at a fireworks party
Hopefully I will start to get back on track with eating healthy again.Decluttering campaign 2023

STS again for me this week. I need to further increase my exercise. I planned to go on a group walk last Saturday but then didn't feel that good so didn't go. I still did a short one on my own.4

afternoon all 👋

-3 lbs for me please. As this was my second week the weight was still flying off (which of course is a great motivator) and I haven't really felt that hungry.
The phase I always find most difficult will be now starting where the weight loss plateaus and I have to add some more calories. Getting this balance right is so hard. I can abstain easily enough but trying to have a bit more but not too much knocks me off track.
Sorry to hear of all the sickness going round. Make sure to prioritise your health rather than this challenge.7 -
2LB loss for me this week so must keep going with the no snacks and pleased to say I am in the next stone down7

Another 1.5lbs loss for me, my weight loss head is still firmly in place. Long may it continue, but it's likely to slip at any moment.5

Sorry not been posting. I have got stuck since I joined this challenge! I lost a stone before I came on here. I Want to lose another one but although I am keeping very busy and eating sensibly I seem to have stabilised. Have been working towards a huge charity event next weekend so after that I will do much more exercise and try to cut meals to a bowl of porridge late morning and a sensible dinner in the evening. It's just got to come off ready for our cruise in January.
STS for me please Brambling. 😢
