Hi
Got weighed at weekend in one of those places where you can't shift your toes around on the scale to lose half a stone. Bit of a shock. Does anyone want to join me to be 20lb lighter by Christmas?

That's only 2lb a week. We can do it.

Height: 5'4"
Start weight on 21st October: 159lb
Goal Weight on Christmas Day: 139lb

Food Plan: no sugar or processed foods, lots of water, lots of veg and lean protein. Alcohol free on weekdays

Exercise Plan: Daily Shred plus what I already do (fitness class and walks)

Anyone want to join in and add plans, tips, motivators, anything at all to get us there by Christmas Day?

I weighed in at 144 this morning, so not going too badly. Well done all!

Sorry not been on for ages. Inspired by a friend I saw on Tuesday night, I have started 5/2, did a 2 day the next day. This morning I weighed myself at 10st 10! that's 6lb less than last Sunday wooohoo!

I forgot that I'd signed up to do this! Been catching up with all your fab losses and yummy things you've been eating!
I'm impressed by all the exercise that's been going on- that's one thing I haven't managed yet. I've promised myself that I'll get out for a walk in the beach tomorrow- watch this space! Grin
So far, I've lost 9.5lbs - that's from following basic Slimming World principles. I'm also newly vegan which I think helps a lot- can't just binge on cheese, crisps and chocolate as easily as I might have previously done!!

Haven't been on thread recently , but I've lost another pound .
OK , it's a slightly pathetic 2lb in 4 weeks , but it could have been 2lb on instaed , so it's progress .

Need to concentrate now , as Christmas Party on 14th December , and I don't want to be the Fattie on the table !

Did anyone make it? In the end I lost about 12 lbs
