509 replies

KeepOrfThemCarbs · 18/04/2012 21:22

I am starting this thread instead of BIWI as I have created the spreadsheet so we can count up the total weightloss for us all (and graphs etc in order to satisfy my geeky urges).

I have put the names in alphabetical order so names are easier for people to find. Please put your 'current weight' in pounds or kilos, it doesn't matter, I'll SORT IT AHT.

!2st 4 this morning. !2st 10 last week so that's a 6 pound loss for me.
Slightly annoyed that I caved in to alcohol on Saturday and Sunday night but my DP was away for a few days last week so we "celebrated" his return (any excuse it's pathetic!) I also had 2 cups of caffeinated coffee yesterday.

I just know I could be stricter with myself!

NLY for breakfast.

BIWIWhoMustBeObeyed · 23/04/2012 10:28

Get you, you moany old thing, Twit! Brilliant Grin

Porky. 5.5lbs is brilliant. Especially if you drank loads of wine! And those who are losing loads more have loads more to lose, so you're still ahead of them, so to speak.

Maria - that is a lovely post. I'm so glad you're finding you again!

RadioSilence · 23/04/2012 10:46

Fillet steak was actually one of the things I fancied BIWI so that is a great idea. I am going to make the curried cauliflower soup today and some celeriac crisps too so hopefully they will both be delicious.

vnmum · 23/04/2012 12:09

those wanted scales. My lidl had some in, didgital ones for 8 quid. It is hit and miss if they have them in stock but might be worth a try before forking out extra

ilovemyteddy · 23/04/2012 12:40

Maria I loved your post too. I went through my wardrobe,too, on Saturday and threw half of it out for the charity bags as it is too big. I have a long way to go to reach my goal weight, and will never be 9st 3lb Envy but, if I reach my goal I'll be coming to ask you for style tips, because I could do with a bit of funk in my wardrobe Grin

GreatEXPATations · 23/04/2012 12:58

Hmm well overdid it on crap food/wine at weekend party : ( cross/sorry for self emoticon... Just 1/2 lb off since thurs so 9st 8.5 lbs but IT'S ALL MY FAULT! whips self dramatically.. Am taking this seriously now! Only 6 lbs to lose but yo-yo up n down (mainly thro self- sabotage) so don't come off. Think I'm going to ditch the intermittent fasting I was doing, old occasional dark choc treat (I know! ) for a couple of weeks to stabilize my blood sugar and reduce the cravings.
Well done everyone, some great losses going on!

Twit · 23/04/2012 13:21

I can't wait to go through my wardrobe, although as I'm currently hoping to get back into some clothes it might be some time before I can justify buying alot a few new clothes. I have my eye on some new boots though

prettybird · 23/04/2012 13:51

12st 6lb this morning after The Shred SmileSmile - that's a 5lb loss since last week!

That was despite the (allowed) half bottle of Cava on Friday and the (small) portion of Eton Mess last night at my Dad's. I did pick out a couple of larger pieces of meringue and give them to ds and reckoned that the strawberries, yoghurt and cream weren't too far off Bootcamp principles BlushWink

The good news is that I tried on my red dress last night and although it is not exactly sitting right across the bust, I can get it on! SmileSmile (Picture on my profile is me in the dress at last year's ball)

FauxFox · 23/04/2012 14:06

Gorgeous dress prettybird I love red Smile

Schnarkle · 23/04/2012 14:31

Weighing in today at 153 lbs !

We're all doing so well. On other diets a 1lb loss would be great, so well done to us all.

KeepOrfThemCarbs · 23/04/2012 17:17

I am so sorry I haven't been on here all day - I have had a very busy day of meetings, and now am going straight tout with colleagues and clients for dinner.

I will read the thread when I get in tonight and will update the spreadsheet tomorrow morning - sorry about that. Xx

I have lost 6 pounds on bootcamp so far. Is this where I am meant to post or should I copy and paste the list?

Livelongandprosper · 23/04/2012 18:41

Sorry for late weigh in, I've been out all day with my dad.

Was 9st 9lbs at the start and this morning I was 9st 4lbs.

Went up a pound since yesterday despite not having cheated but I put this down to having problems of the pooing variety.

Hepsibaaah · 23/04/2012 19:34

Weighing in - haven't read todays' posts so just bunged it on as per last time. Really pleased, 4lbs down since last week and not too painfully at that! I think this week will see a slow-down for me (has when I've done this in the past), but I'm still aiming for a further 2lbs by Sunday.

Can I say THANK YOU to BIWI, low carbing has been much easier this time around thanks to your straightforward guidelines. I haven't cheated once [ok, maybe a glass of vino and a few crisps but that was it - promise] and sniffing chocolate doesnt count.

PorkyandBess · 23/04/2012 19:43

I have completely lost my appetite.

I had a scrambled egg for breakfast and about 5 mini mozzarella balls for lunch. Lots of water and yet to have dinner.

I know this probably isn't enough, but I was really busy (& massively stressing about my youngest being ill) and I just forgot.

LackaDAILYcarb · 23/04/2012 19:47

12st 9 for me today so only 2.5lbs loss and 1 on since Thursday Angry

I don't think I've eaten enough fat or drunk enough water...that will change this week!

LoopingLizards · 23/04/2012 19:53

126lbs for me now, thats 4lbs in total but only 1/2lb since thur. Had v bold day yesterday tho so will keep going!

JaxTellerIsMyFriend · 23/04/2012 19:55

oh my tummy is so dodgy today. Sad Not sure what is going on here. Could be the lovely bit of cheese that I had - strong with mouldy bits on (was supposed to have mouldy rind)

LackaDAILYcarb · 23/04/2012 19:56

I got my period on Friday as well though, so that may have slowed things up?

wohmum · 24/04/2012 01:28

i weighed in this morning - 10 st 9 so 5 lb off! hurray - really pleased with that. !!

This week may be more of a challenge cos I'm travelling with work on Thursday/friday and then my son's 13th birthday on Sat so off to Thorpe park - and he's bound to want Pizza hut afterwards.

JaxTellerIsMyFriend · 24/04/2012 05:30

up at 4.40 this morning as DH had a flight to catch, I was awake so now I am up and MNing. Its far too early for anything else although the dogs are looking at me eagerly for a run in the rain.
