    +1lb this week.

    Not really surprised. I was away for a few days and did a lot of walking, but ate more than usual too.

    Fashion on the Ration 2026 - 31.5 coupons remaining (rolling over 1.5 from last year) 
    April Grocery Challenge - £134.93 of £250 spent
    Declutter 12 things (net) in 2026 - 69 out and 65 in = 8 to lose

    I forgot to stand on the scales before breakfast and getting dressed this morning. I will give you my final weight tomorrow morning. Please do add me for the next quarter with a target of 5lbs. Thank you

    To close the quarter, I'll report a STS - both since the last weigh-in and since 1 January.

    Unfortunately I have to say + 1/2 lb. I am still attributing this to my 3 course meals recently. Now 12 st 1 (just for my reference in case I forget!)

    Hi Brambling can you put a STS for me for this week. I’ve been down the hospital with my Aunt since Monday it was touch and go but she’s pulled through thankfully. Hope everyone is doing well.
