Just in case anyones up and about early.

Don't email anyone, just post your weight (ideally for me!) or if you can't face it, just post your loss.

Good Luck and I'll e-mail you all the chart on Thursday with our progress.

appyday · 10/01/2006 09:56

10st 10 thats 2lb loss. 1st time the scales have shown a loss in a year. (Except for when I thought I had miracle weight loss - turned out I had a hyper thyroid)

jambuttie · 10/01/2006 10:09

well done everyone i will be weighing in later

figleaf · 10/01/2006 10:10

Furball, I E-mailed UCM but missed the first chart due to crap typing of her E-mail address. Assuming I am on the system....

Wt 12st 12lb so a 2lb loss.

Quite pleased as it was my birthday last Tuesday and forced to eat cake and drink alot.
Well done to everyone else!

longwaytogo · 10/01/2006 10:23

O.K. 1llb weight loss so thats 10st 13 llb
Could have done a lot better but have eaten too much rubbish. Determined to be better this week

MrsBoo · 10/01/2006 10:44

I have lost 1lb, but because i was only able to guess my weight last week; on paper i have put on 4lb.
Hope that makes sense.

UCM · 10/01/2006 10:44

WOW you lot are so good, I can't weigh myself until I get home from work.

niccick · 10/01/2006 10:50

Ok I am now 18st 5lbs so yeah I have lost 3lbs. So very proud of myself and it will only get better. Congrats everyone

HeavyBee · 10/01/2006 10:54

Eeek. Only one pound and I've been trying so hard. Oh well.... 9 st 13.

niccick · 10/01/2006 11:05

A pound is great Heavybee, and the first week is always the hardest trying to organise everything and get into the routine and change the mind set of our eating. I have had a really good day the only really bad thing I had today was a piece of rasin toast this morning with my son, we go out for "coffee"every tuesday before i drop him off at childcare.

Yesterday was hard, I was having sugar withdrawals in the afternoon and ended up giving in and having some chocolate. I really need to find my water bottle so that I drink more water during the day.

Does anyone else go through sugar withdrawals? Or am I the only sugaholic around?

Furball · 10/01/2006 11:08

Right, haven't read since my last post. But Can people if possible stop emailing and post here. Thanks

hi I'm a bit confused about whats going on with the chart I was on original chart sent out by ucm, but now it seems furball has taken over do we email furball i havent got her address, also is there even a chart anymore?!
please someone help!
i have lost 3lbs, from 10st 7 to 10st 4

SleepyJess · 10/01/2006 11:23

My weigh day is Friday if that's ok. Sorry not been posting but AM doing this never fear.

Is the chart obsolete?

wilbur · 10/01/2006 11:27

Oh you've all been so good! I've lost 0.5lbs which is better than nothing. I did have a naughty night away from the kids on Friday tho, which involved alcohol and chocolate in large quantities. Will be better this week. BTW, did you get my email with my original weight, UCM?

wilbur · 10/01/2006 11:29

In case you didn't get the original email - I started at 11st 13.5 lbs and now am 11 st 13lbs. I'm 5'8".

UCM · 10/01/2006 11:29

Furball has very kindly agreed to become keeper of the chart for us. However, she wants you to post weight (if you don't want to post weight post loss/gain ) on this thread instead of getting tons of emails. She will then adjust chart and send it to all of us.

wilbur · 10/01/2006 11:32

Furball - should I email you just once so you have my email address? I didnt get a chart last week, so perhaps my email didnt go through.

HeavyBee · 10/01/2006 11:35

Thank you Niccick! I'm not sure what more I can do about changing my diet, except just eat less. I don't have chocolate or sweets, or meat, or dairy - just more or less a vegan diet with fish. It's not on a moral basis - I don't like meat and dairy makes my nose block up. But the contraceptive coil I have is a Mirena, for various reasons, and the downside of that can be weight gain - it was about two pounds a week for six weeks until I realised what was happening. My doctor said I wasn't the first to mention it. So losing weight is a bit like swimming against the tide, but I am determined to do it!

bubblerock · 10/01/2006 11:36

I've lost 2 lb taking me from 9 stone to 8stone 12lb.

Well done everyone!!!

UCM started it, then furball developed an excel chart so UCM passed our email addresses onto furball. Furball will now collect our new weights (or just the loss, if you don't want to post your weight) from a 'weigh in thread' like this one every week and then send out the revised charts to all of us on a Thursday.

So.. Don't email Furball unless you don't receive the chart on Thursday.

Hope that makes sense.

bubblerock · 10/01/2006 11:37

Oops - I take too long to type

MrsSpoon · 10/01/2006 11:38

Well done everyone! Wow!

I have lost 6lbs this week, making me 11st 4lbs.

If anyone would like my bug you are welcome to pop round and I will cough all over you for a small fee? Haven't felt hungry for a week!

Furball · 10/01/2006 11:40

Right Wilbur, yes you can email me with your address furball(at)link2me.co.uk

BUT NOONE ELSE!
