I am a starting weight of 12st 13lbs, I want to lose 3stone. I am going to do it by South Beach diet and walking and workouts. Starting today! Have had ham and erggs for breakfast, busy for the rest of the day but going to go for a walk later. Have done no exercise over the festive period so a walk is a start! Anyone want to join me? xxxxxx

Just a pound off for me here... I'm down to 11st 1lb. I would love to be 10 stone something (although 9st something would be even better!). The diet is going well - this one seems to really suit me and I'm finding it really easy to stick to. I don't really mind if the weight loss is slow as I'm in for this long term!

A pound a week still means that I'll be nearly 2 stone lighter by the summer. So I'm going for that! Smile

Have stuck at 11st 8 with no loss this week either but DH has been unwell and in hospital for emergency op so it's a bloody miracle I haven't gained anything with all the chocolate crap I was eating in the hospital! He's back home and will be recouperating for 2 weeks plus so shall defo try and be good now Grin

surreygirl I'm sorry to hear that! Hope your DH is okay now. I don't blame you for eating lots of crap, I do when I'm stressed so can't imagine what you've been through!

I have lost 1lb. Was hoping for 2 as I've literally had soup once a day from being ill! But it's a lb and I'm happy with that.

I'm with you Reesie, if I can lose a lb a week, I'll be dead happy come the summer! Grin

I'm here, at last!

Weighed myself on wednesday and 11st 7lb. Now a size 14 on top and a 14 in skirts on bottom/16 in jeans still. I'll do another weigh in Sunday. Doing lots of walking and calorie counting using myfitnesspal.com - seems to be helping move things in the right direction at last. And hubby is better now too so only have 2 kids to look after all day and not 3. Grin

Well done surreygirl. I haven't been on this thread in a little while as have done ok and been eating healthily and have lost another 1lb. However - this is not bad going as I've found out that I'm 6 weeks pregnant. I'm going to carry on eating heathily and avoiding any junk. This little bean snuck in just before dh vasectomy appointment Shock but I'm extreemly happy now the news has sunk in! Grin

So - I'm just going to hopefully gain a little weight slowly!
