To be proud I’ve lost 6lbs

Hi mumsnetters!

Feeling really proud tonight as over the last 3 weeks have managed to lose 6lbs.

I’m a takeaway and wine fiend but have cut back to 1 takeaway and one bottle of wine a week. I know I’m not doing anything very impressive or anything but do feel a tiny bit proud that I’m now within the ‘overweight’ part of BMI vs the ‘obese’ part I was in 4 weeks ago

Excellent, well done. Especially dropping down a bracket, that's always a good feeling.

Yay!

YANBU good job!! 👏👏👏

Amazing OP!

JoyDivisionOvenGlovesx · 16/10/2021 20:27

YANBU at all. You should be proud, that’s a decent & sustainable loss.

Well done from a random internet stranger, who is - quite frankly - jealous.

That is great. Well done!

2lbs a week is ideal

Well done you.

Flufferty · 16/10/2021 20:32

That's brilliant. Well done

You should be proud! It's not easy, I'm struggling to lose even a pound or two atm. Well done, esp moving down into the next bmi category. It's good you're not completely cutting out the wine as well, as I don't think that would be sustainable. Have you got any tips? I struggle with feeling hungry (even when I eat lots of protein)

TheKeatingFive · 16/10/2021 20:36

Well done. I'd like to follow your example!

@Annunaki that's a great idea! I have a small pack I bought (no idea why) so will add them to my breakfast tomorrow

Invasionofthegutsnatchers · 17/10/2021 22:07

Well done! Keeping some treats makes it sustainable

PinkSyCo · 17/10/2021 22:12

You should be feeling VERY proud of yourself. A 6lb weight loss is amazing! Well done OP.

KT727 · 17/10/2021 22:52

Well done, that's brilliant!

catwhispererpsps · 17/10/2021 23:07

Well done.

wizzler · 18/10/2021 07:09

That's great. Sadly I think I've found them!

Lampzade · 18/10/2021 07:13

Well done Op
