This is a thread for those who are pig sick of over eating and binging and have decided enough is enough.

There will be no excuses on this thread...no 'oh but I was due my period' or 'oh but it was left over so I finished it' etc

IF you need to have a nice meal as part of a celebration DO IT but no more excuses - have the meal and move on.

This is a thread for the brave.....this is a thread for the serious. Join at your peril.....

Monday mornings are weigh in - so that we cannot binge on the weekends. I am deliberately being hard on myself and if you want to do it to please join. Even if someone wafts wine and banoffee pie under my nose I will not have it - even if the world is going to end I WILL NOT HAVE IT

weigh in Monday morning and post here

Oh and drink some wine and eat some choc while you still can because on Monday you will be in hell Angry

Welcome Mavis


You made a good decision ( I am not normally like this just trying to take it all seriously Grin)


I also need to lose 3 stone so I feel we could get on very well indeed. I buy chocolate and stuff my face with it, I can eat a whole family sized cake in an evening too.

NO MORE EXCUSES - See you monday morning for an initial weigh in. I will weigh in pounds - My target is

drum roll please...............10 stone. 140lbs.

This is exactly what I need. I ate an entire bag of some berry jellies last night and as I finished the bag I just though to my self how ridiculous I am doing that.

This morning I decided I can't really trust my own mind with food, so decision made.

What ever my first thoughts are for a meal, I will have half that amount.

No ifs, ands or buts from me.

Goal here is 10 stone also.

So you decided to join eh?

Good for you Grin

A stone stone target is a popular choice - lets do it!! Monday morning weigh in.....then each week we can post our weight loss.

If anyone starts to waiver we HAVE to BOLSTER that person's spirit.
We don not leave A WOMAN/MAN behind....
FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION

Welcome outtolunchagain


Another good decision. 2 Stone is totally achievable on this plane because we don't accept FAILURE

Actually I am scaring myself a little here but er....thanks for joining and best of luck. See you Monday morning!

I've just got to breaking point on the weight front, so think this might be a good motivator.

I just did a kg/stone conversion and was horrified to have hit the 12 stone mark (previously only ever reached during preg) and in photos have started looking like a fat lass.

2 stone of post-baby weight to lose - 1 of which I'm pretty sure is post-BF weight where I didn't temper my man-sized portions/cake habit after I got DD off the boob.

So 10 stone target here too... (although I'd be happy with 11 as a more achievable goal)

carrot cake - How lovely of you to join us. Sounds like you too have hit breaking point.

Enough is ENOUGH - NO more huge portions necessary.

Whatever diet/ healthy eating plan we are all following the rules are that we do not cheat or binge unless for an event/ celebration etc After that meal we MOVE ON.

THIS IS NOW OR NEVER

Thanks for the support. Cybbo is dipping her toe in to decide if she wants to give some home truths in order to motivate us into not letting this opportunity pass us by.

I am trying to lose about a stone and a half of babyweight (cake weight) am just coming to the end of BFing my 13 month old and appear to be a touch heavier than my clothes would like me to be

TTC #2 now and would quite like to shift the weight before I have an excuse to put it all back on again

My target is 9 and a 1/2 stone.

This sounds just what I need - just been tagged in some FB photos and, fuck me, I am a fat lass. I weigh about 14 stone and would like to get to between 11.5 - 12 stone and I WILL DO IT.

I WILL NOT BE A FAT LASS ANY MORE. IT WILL STOP.

Good luck although luck is not needed, we now have the NO EXCUSES thread.

Thanks

also other good prep for exersise is if your going to take up running map your run and then come up with alternates which are progressively longer.
