NOW or NEVER, NO EXCUSES weight loss part 2

[Goldidi]

We've nearly grown out of the last thread here so i started the new one.

We're all doing different things but we're all here to support each other on the journey. We kick each other when we need it and offer sympathy when that's more appropriate.

Hang on...is 181 lbs already in the 12 stones? OOOh my calculator says 181lbs is 12.10lbs

Is it true?

Hmm 13 times 14 is 182 don my calculator so make it 12.13 ? But that's down in the 12 stones

Either way well done youcan being in 12 stone mark

I'm at 199 which is 14 stone 3 lbs but I'm going to get there I'm hoping see a 13 as first number soon

Well it is a deal Human - you shall see a 13 on those scales next monday and I shall 'secure' my 12!!
I feel excited for the first time in a while...I really want to be 12 stone for when my husband comes home. 6 weeks to lose 12 pounds is a good target.

Ok you can you are on . Hmm 6 weeks I'm going to try for 13 stone something when is your Dh home ? . We can do it

I admit I'm going to push it this month as am away 3rd December to cente parcs for 5 days ok I'm not going be slim in a costume but look dam site better than did last year . And certainly won't be working out like I have diet hmm I'm not sure whether will stick to it or not but even if I fall of I know I'm lot slimmer than 6 months ago

You will look so much better in a csotume you must feel like a new woman already!! I hope you have a fantastic time and make the most of the holiday. I have until 23rd december I reckon so if I lose 2 lbs per week average I will be a winner! This week is going to be hardcore. I want to lose 4/5 lbs and so will do 2 or 3 fast days this week. I have some boiled veg in a ww korma sauce in the fridge for this evening and that will be all I have today along with tea/ coffee and water.

You are already in a size 16 yes? That is amazing. I am still a size 16 and really struggle to get into a 14 - my hips and thighs are so wide it never really comes off of there

Good morning, human that's a fantastic loss, well done!! youcan you sound really motivated too.
I lost 1lb this week, which ok. I know I could try harder, but im trying not to be too hard on myself, I need to maintain this.

Yes I'm in a 16 from anywhere now

14 is my next goal .

Youcan it may depend on how tall you are even though I'm say on my arse all the time I am 5.7 so may make a differance . Tbh I found long long time ago a 12 was my limit hip wide even at 8 stone and loose on waist but not planning that low

Hello fed up - well done! Another 'half a bag od sugar' off!!

I wonder how much we have all lost collectively on this thread??

Human I am 5ft 6". I have f-cup boobs...so a bit of weight there. I have a 34" waist (needs to be 30 really) the reast is bum and hips. It never comes off of there and If I lose too much off my top half I look too bottom heaby. I think I will settle around the 11 stone mark - 12 on top/ 14 ish on bottom.

Do you measure Human? I have only just done it Not sure tape is long enough to go round bottom....

Hey, welcome to the 12s youcan ! I lost almost 1 1/2 pounds this week so I'm just over 12 st 10.

Ooh youcan check your BMi, you might have dropped off obese, I have about 5lb to go but I'm only 5 ft 4, to be honest I have such large boobs I'm not too worried about being obese but when I get there I will still be using it as an excuse to buy a non-food treat.

I have measured my waist for some time (down 3 inches in a month) but did bum for first time week. Both are huge but the only way is down!

Well done jonny, fed up and human I am joining you in trying to get into the 13's ..... Weighed in at 14.3 but should really have been 14.4 as I weighed, then took my tshirt off and weighed again!!!!

I have put two pounds ON in two weeks, grrrrrrrrrrrrr. Have had two bdays in my house and I am just awful at not eating stuff if it's around, I can avoid buying stuff n worries but if it's here.....

Am. On. Mission.

hmm...so unfortunately my mums dx was confirmed by the oncologists...now we have cat scan and then treatment discussion meeting in the next few weeks. I think the news is slowly settling into my brain although I am still worried my parents don't get how bad this is.

Anyway I have basically been eating crisps and chocolate all weekend so was not at all hopeful today for weigh in...but apparently another 2lbs gone mysteriously (tbh this has reminded me of the doctor who episode - except we don't have a cat flap)

So 11s 13lb (my first 11 for a looooong time)

that makes 1s 11lb gone and another 2s 6lb to go.

I wonder if I will stay the same this week...like maybe it lags? or maybe the bitchin cold weather has saved me....

well done to those who lost! and even to those who didn't...half term and being surrounded by people who can scoff what they like must be stupidly hard.

I'm sure you will all be back on track before you know it!

ICB - I am sorry thatthe news was as you expected. I really hope you are ok. I suspect you are still losing because you are stressed and threrefore burning more calories. Do whatever you need to do to get yourself through it all. Weight is NOT the most important thing in your life at the moment x

Johnny - I did BMI and I am 29.5 - indeed I am no longer obese...Cheers!!

icb

sorry news was as you feared and I agree with youcan its more do what ever you need to cope with life at the moment but well done on seeing a 11 in front of you

Goon

Seems were following each other were exactly he same weight

youcan

And I am another one with large norks now a 36 FF /G .so the size gone down but not the cup .I am aiming for a 12 on the bottom and will have to accept i suspect a 14/16 on the top .
Yes I do measure as aware with working out that muscle weighs more than weight so can see the difference even if scales may not

which site you using for Bmi ? i need loose a stone and 3lbs i suspect to no longerobese but from where i started I can live with it

Thanks youcan - it has certainly pointed up just how much of my eating is to do with my mental state (duh!).

Well done on crossing the BMI line :) definitely a milestone!

Human - national blood and heart/ lung institute for BMI calculator. Another one may put me back in the obese..i daren't try it!!

I met up with Goonatic this morning for a cuppa. We spoke about tactics, we are hardcore all the way and only had cups of tea

I am getting peckish now so I must resist. May have an apple or pear before my tasty and satisfying vegetable slop for dinner.

hi everyone i weighed in at 88kg this week, thats 2 up from last week.....i had some very bad runs!
i havent been eating very well over the half term. i have lost a grand total of 1kg in two weeks .....i will need to get myself back on track for this week!

human its really funny that you have that hip issue no matter what you weigh, im the same no matter what i weigh the smallest size i fit properly is a size 12 long length trousers (but i must admit people always said i looked about size 8/10) .

I am same regarding hips, I will never fit below a size 10 (UK 12), even when I was 16 and weighed 120lbs that was still the size I needed. Oh to be 16....

Will weigh myself here in about an hour! Feel good and pretty sure I've lost at least a little!

Good luck

Woohoo I'm 177.4! Lost 3.6 pounds this week! On a roll

argh my anti-constipation plan has backfired.

I thought...oh I don't want to have to give me big scary terrifying first undergrad lecture with constipation cramps....I'll take one of my little yellow pills!

Only now I can't stop crapping and the lecture is only an hour away....

silly silly me....

I am posting this here because when I finally stop pooing (god let it be soon) I reckon I will re-weigh myself....

Icb

Hope you been able get of the toilet and make lecture

phew...did it - so very very glad it's over.

I think the butt clenching terror won out in the end....
