1.5 Stone to lose by February

butterflyexperience · 28/12/2011 07:16

After dd2 was born I was 2.5 Stone over of what I weighed before DC's.

Earlier this year I managed to lose 1.5 of it but in the past 2 months have put 0.5 back on, from lack of excersise and eating crap.

So...to help motivate me and anyone else who would care to join I'm looking to lose 1.5 Stone in 2 months.

The plan is:
to run 3-4 times a week around 5K each run.
Low Carb it
Stop eating meat, only fish and eggs

My weight today is: 10 Stone

Anyone care to join me?

I really don't know what I am doing wrong.

sod it. Be fat forever.

ObviouslyOblivious · 15/01/2012 20:13

Lucky, do you think you're eating enough?

LuckyC · 20/01/2012 11:47

Sorry Obvious - was not actually sulking! Have started contract and madly busy.

Yes think was 1. starving self and 2. not shredding enough.

I am going to jump ship from this thread, let it die a death, and am heading over to the Tuesday weigh-ins thread - maybe see you there?

messalina · 20/01/2012 21:25

Please could I join you? Am on day 13 of my diet...the LONGEST I have ever, ever done. Am feeling very proud of myself as I love food so much! Currently 9 and a half stone, want to be just over 8 stone which is what I weighed 6 years ago. No time for exercise...maybe a run twice a week but it's too cold at the moment. Interim deadline of mid-Feb. Major deadline of May...I need to lose the weight so I have room for expansion when I get pregnant with DC2. It's serious this time. If I put on weight during pregnancy from my current weight, might end up overweight. Am 5 foot 4 inches. Plan so far has been:

2 slices of toast for breakfast
soup and salad for lunch
small snack when I get home
supper (strictly no second helpings, wine only on Fri and Sat).
sweet things only allowed once a week.

piratecat · 20/01/2012 21:31

i have to join you. i want to lose a stone. i have been getting bigger by a few lbs each year the past 3-4 yrs and today i thought you have to do something about this. early 40's, and it's only going to get worse.

I have been in denial.

will go read thread.

ObviouslyOblivious · 21/01/2012 07:48

Of course you can join, but it's very quiet in here. I may be the only one left

MumPotNoodle · 22/01/2012 09:37

Can I join too? I need help!! Will weigh myself tomorrow (giving myself another day of gluttony) BlushGrin

catinboots · 22/01/2012 11:51

Can I join??

Am 10st 13lb but want to be 9st 4lb. I keep joining threads about losing weight and then disappearing Grin

I need you to hunt me down on other threads if I disappear from this one.

Tomorrow I start my diet again.

Low carb/low calorie.

LuckyC · 22/01/2012 15:37

Well if you're all joining and promise to stay and motivate me, I will sign up again here too? Tuesday weigh-in thread has turned very very chatty. Otherwise, as it is virtually February, we could migrate to a brand new thread all of our very own? Start afresh?

catinboots · 22/01/2012 16:23

Shiney new thread!!! Yes yes yes!

What will we be called???

bulletpoint · 22/01/2012 16:28

Yes count me in too Grin started walking last week, trying to lose at least 1 stone, to get me back on to 9 and half tone. When i walk i feel like my lungs are about to explode, its so really hard!
