girls r u there? I’ve gone off wagon into the abyss and weigh over 10 stone for first time in like ever

time to get back into fasting and ignore it’s the summer holidays!

am freaking out!

Slept in at work last night. Just having a cuppa before a shower then we are walking to the sea to have lunch with the in-laws. Working tomorrow and sleeping in again and then I’m basically off for two weeks! Meeting a friend Wednesday night then going to Birmingham on Saturday ready to see Metallica on Sunday then going down to London on Tuesday to see def Leppard and Metallica x 2 again. So next week is busy.

Btw weighed in at 11:2.6 which seems to be my default these days!

Are you ok with that? I’d love to be at a default of that at the moment - I know it’s only a couple of pounds difference from me, but it’s a mindset thing I think.

I had pitta with dinner last night so saw a slight scale increase. Not sure on lunch today.

You have quite a few concerts coming up! I’m sure you’ll sweat a couple of pounds out there!

Tbf if I cut down on my drinking I might loose a bit more. Would really love to see a 10 on the scales but as long as I don’t add to it I think I’m ok

Meant to say that July should be a bit quieter for me and I will knock off the beer for most of the month and see what happens there

Mid week 11:5:00 - Gah! I feel like I’m not even eating that much in this heat. Had no alcohol or take out at the weekend either!

From mid july my weekends should settle down and I’ll see if I can get some progress made before Christmas!!

Ending the week at 11:3:2 - feeling a bit happier with that and now will not throw in the towel following my recent thoughts to give up trying!

11:2:3 Today!

I may only be at this for a day before the weekend spike but it’s made me feel better about my body seeing those numbers.

I have a busy couple of weeks so will enjoy all that, but fully intend to have a health and fitness era from mid July.

@Bubbles44 @Smartmove How are things? Are you managing ok?

11:5:0 The human yo-yo continues

I’m away. Will not be weighing in until next Tuesday. Not looking forward to it 🤣🤣

11:3:4 which is about one pound on from last Friday. That’s ok as was a heavy weekend which I’ve had to undo this week. Hardly any movement as been absolutely shattered, but no alcohol and not really any treats this week.

How are things with you?

I have a lots of food and drinks on over the next week so I am going to indulge in that and allow myself a little week off before the big reset the week after!

I am both looking forward to enjoying treats but also feel ready to get back into the health and fitness regime.

Eating and drinking too much 🤣🤣 however I bought a pair of adidas jorts yesterday because I tried on a size 12 and they fitted me 🤣🤣

I’ve been doing loads of steps tho… 23k yesterday averaged over 16k every day this week 😭😭 my feet hurt 😭😭

Well in news that will surprise absolutely nobody I have put weight on after my holiday 🤣🤣 what is surprising tho is that it’s only 2lb 😱 currently 11:5.8

lets see if I can get any of that off. Some of it is booze weight for sure as I have been drinking far too much over the last 10 days.

Hope you had a lovely holiday. I am
not weighing until Monday - it will be bad. But then the healthy eating commences.

I’m planning on weighing in again in the morning. Hope something has come off at least.

11:3.2 this morning. On the way down 🤞

Hi girls!
sorry been awol! Life is so hectic and just trying to maintain
ive been away and feeling absolutely huge but I’m not weighing till a few days of being good here we go -

Apple and coffee brekkie
not planned anything else yet!

Well done @WorthySloththats the direction we like to see!

@SmartmoveGood to hear from you! Hope you’ve had a lovely break.

I feel like because I have it in my head that diet starts Monday (as always!!!!) I am eating a lot more before the diet starts. Like I am trying to get it out of my system.

I’m weighing in again on Tuesday morning I think. I’ve been out to the beach with friends tonight and had a couple of drinks and some cheesy chips so don’t want to weigh in tomorrow 🤣🤣 then I’m sleeping in at work tomorrow night so won’t be able to weigh in at my preferred time on Monday. So hopefully see a bit of a drop on Tuesday 🤞

I weighed in and I’m up by 5 pounds! So I’m now over 10 stone which always stresses me out so will be good now!
just done gym
yog and fruit brekkie
fish broccoli lunch
grilled chicken and more broccoli dinner
aiming for 1200

Morning all,

My total reset starts today.

11:6:5 - goal weight is 10:9 (so 11.5lb to lose)

I am not going to immediately set weight loss goals per week or month as that can add extra pressure but may include this depending on how I get on.

Plan of action:

Calorie count
Focus on protein
Include fruit veg and salad
Drink 2L fluid
Aim for 8k steps per day - more if possible but as a starting point
Aim for 2x gym per week - more if possible but as a starting point
Don’t go mad on the weekends! Allow a limited alcohol/ treat so not completely strict but also not undoing the good work during the week

I think that about covers the main points but let me know if I’ve missed anything!

Formal weigh day is Friday so a shorter week this week with starting on a Monday.

Good luck @hollyblueivy! Seems like a sensible plan 😊

I will weigh in tomorrow morning and see what’s happening. Hopefully lost a bit I’ve been drinking as much water as I can manage the last few days

11:5:0 so 1.5lb off.

I’ve gone to gym everyday this week and steps have been good. All calories tracked aiming for around 1500, been slightly under but guess I’ll catch up over weekend.

Everything has felt great this week. The challenge is always the weekend.

Did loads of exercise over the weekend.

Had about 4 alcoholic drinks.

Was bread heavy but no take away or meal out.

11:6:3 today - hoping that will drop quickly.

I’ll weigh in tomorrow. I’ve just been on Vinted and bought a new sports bra. Aiming to get back into some running when the heatwave fucks off 👍
