I have officially lost 6 stone today and I am no longer obese or overweight according to my BMI, I am a healthy weight Grin
Now where’s that cream cake I bought to celebrate!

YANBU!!

That’s a HUGE achievement, so well done to you!! 🙌🏼

Mustang27 · 15/11/2017 12:15

That is fantastic just a wee bit jealous here I’m 35 weeks and the size of a house. If I buy sparkly il look like a Christmas bauble. For your sake though I think you should pass me that cream cake Grin

Rebeccaslicker · 15/11/2017 12:16

Definitely!! If it were me, I would prob have a new hair colour/cut and something I could only have dreamed of fitting into :)

I've lost 4 stone but still have about 2 to go, so lots of dreaming for me still!

1DAD2KIDS · 15/11/2017 12:16

Boast away, if it makes you feel good and proud, own it and enjoy it.

Deedee0208 · 15/11/2017 12:21

That’s brilliant, a very big well done, I’m dieting now to try and lose 6 stone, fells like I’ve got a mountain to climb, ive lost 24 lb so far, any tips and how did you do it xx

Skittlesandbeer · 15/11/2017 12:21

Cream cake be damned, you’ve achieved the best reward there is...setting an ambitious goal and sticking with it through the hard times. Empty calories may just mock your amazing achievement.

Tell the world and scoff the adulation instead, I say. Truly marvellous.

KeiraTwiceKnightley · 15/11/2017 12:23

Wow. Well done!

SanJunipero · 15/11/2017 12:24

Well done! That’s a terrific achievement Smile

viques · 15/11/2017 12:30

That is amazing!

I bet you would struggle to pick up a six stone person now but you used to carry one around with you all the time. many congratulations.

kerbyourenthusiasm · 15/11/2017 12:33

Well done you! What an incredible achievement and boast away! Can I ask how you did it?

GiBlues · 15/11/2017 12:34

skittles that’s very true, Mustang can have the cream cake I’ll buy myself a nice dress instead as Rebecca suggested!

deedee I have been eating 1500 calories per day and making sure I hit at least 10,000 steps per day, I started in January and have found it surprisingly easy compared to all other diets I have tried (WW, SW, shakes etc)
I think you definitely need to be in the right frame of mind to do it.

Wow well done, to be in the healthy weight zone must feel great. Go you!!!

I've lost 5 1/2 stone although gained 1/2 stone on holiday but still have 3 stone to go to healthy weight Blush

you've given me a new incentive to go the gym this evening after work and not eat the last custard donut on the counter in the work kitchen.

PickleSarnie · 15/11/2017 12:36

Bloody well done!

ObscuredbyFog · 15/11/2017 12:36

Briliant news, excellent, well done.

Please share your 'How I did it' story maybe on one of the weight loss boards, so you can inspire other people to try and be as successful too Grin

SteelyPip · 15/11/2017 12:38

That's fabulous OP. Well done you and can I have your cake? Grin

oldlaundbooth · 15/11/2017 12:39
