I need to lose 10lbs anyone want to join me?

[loopity]

Need the encouragement and motivation of others!

Hi everyone,

Well done to everyone who has lost! Dislexicicecream, how many is that now? You are doing really well! Step counts just go to show that exercise is so important, will have to try harder

I have put on half a pound, but feel okay about that as i know where I have been going wrong. I am going to start again with renewed motivation today.

So here's to another week, we can do it!!!

hiya everyone thanks xx

well i havent got round reading the list on here!! but i dont think im not doing well on this diet as i need to buy low fat stuff (what i used to do) but we all eat healthy eg never use a frying pan but only for eggs, we grill literally nearly everything and had done for years as we have a grill slab that goes over the gas hob as they are fab and i recommend it to ANYONE as all that fat comes off it = yuck!

where can i get one of those walking thing to do 10000steps per day?

brekkie yesterday
weetabixs with ss milk
2 slices of wholemeal toast - was hungry yesterday as feel ive got a tiny bit of cold
lunch - a weird sandwich from sayers - Chicken with apple and cranberry sauce!! Dont ask!!! and a strawberry jam tart!
tea - steak & kidney pud with hash brown nad vegs
and sweeties at night

it was my bday!

hi biglips

glad you had a nice birthday

I just got my pedometer yesterday, ordered it end of last week on boots online - may have them in the larger stores though too

DD not well today, off school with tummy bug - so I'll be confined pretty much to the house today. Haven't even managed to put pedometer on yet, will go get it now

Hello everyone,

BIBlilBUBU - my sons are Gus and Albie so my nickname is a combination of the both!

I weighed myself this morning and am 10 stone - oh my god!! My pre-baby weight was 8.5 stone and although I know I will never be that again, I would like to get down to 9 stone.

I have started off really badly today because I was starving when I got to work and didn't fancy the frozen fruit smoothie I had bought with me for breakfast so ended up in the canteen getting toast - instead of ordering 1 medium slice of wholemeal with low fat spread I got 2 doorsteps with butter, then I proceeded to eat half my lunch (rye bread and an apple) then helped myself to 3 chocolates that a colleague had bought in for their birthday - where oh where is my willpower?!!
Anyway - I am feeling quite motivated on the exercise front so will get the stepper out again tonight whilst watching Eastenders and sweat off a few calories - there's always another day tomorrow!!
Well done dislexicicecream for your weight loss - sounds like you are doing really well.
Loopity - sorry your DD is unwell - my boys have been a bit poorly the last couple of days with very high temperatures but I have had to return to work today so they are now in the very capable hands of Grandma!! Hope your DD feels better soon.
MrsFish - 1 pound up is not too bad - I'm sure we all fluctuate a bit during the month due to our cycles anyway - heres to a better week this week!!
Keep it up everyone.

I thought it would be something like that mtg, just couldnt work it out. Love the name albie by the way.
Of course you can be 8st5lb again. Before I had my ds I was 9st7lb, which is good for me as im 9ft 9inch tall. Then I went up to 14st+ while I was pregnant. I went on a big diet after ds and went back to 9st 7lb. It only took about 4months to lose most of it. Im 9st6lb now but I want to be 9st. My bodys changed alot since ds so I think ill look better if I lose abit more weight.
Biglips you did well yesturday considering it was your birthday. Im terrible on my birthday, its just cake cake cake all day, and for breakfast each day after untill the cakes finished.
I've been counting caleries and fat today to make sure I dont go over.

No not 9ft9 5ft9....goodness me bad mistake

Somehow I've managed to make the writting really small how do I make it normal size again? anyone know...

Hello, I'm here!

I haven't had chance to read or post this week as work has been mayhem and I've been out today. Sorry to drop away from the thread - I didn't mean to just haven't had chance to catch up with you chatty lot

Well I lost 1 Ib today which is something considering I've been feeling ultra fat for the last few days. I've managed to cancel my meal out tomorrow and I have a lunch booked with friends on Sunday but I've offered to drive so I can't drink! I am off on a hen weekend next weekend so I am determinded to be good until then as I know it's going to be a total blow out.

Well done to everyone who's being good and for those that aren't - get back on track and remember your goal!

I have a wedding in 5 weeks time. I'm half way to the 10Ib target and I really want to loose the other 5Ibs before the wedding so thats my incentive!

Oh and to change the text size go into view on the toolbar and click on text size - click on large to make it bigger

Thanks sweetheart, not sure how I managed to make it small. Well done for your loss. Half way there thats good.
I need to lose another 6lb so I need to be good all the time from now on.
Hav'nt done many steps today, im going to take ds to the park in a bit see if that helps. Im going late night shopping tonight so that should deff help. How everyone getting on today? Hope your all doing well and staying away from temptation.

Hi all,
Well I have lost .5lb not that brill, but makes 3lb total in 3 weeks so steady going I suppose.
I always weigh first thing in the morning, before brekkie, after toilet if u know whatI mean(its the lightest I can possibly be!!)
Food today
Brekkie, usual, lunch a small slice of ham and cheese pizza thin based, dinner piece of home made quiche, an about 4 pot wedges, still no bread, havent had any, apart from .5 slice, since 13 october, really fel better for it, no bloating, DP has noticed my weight loss, and my jeans are much looser now!! Great.
Boughta pedometer today, but its got a duff battery so havent got that up and running yet.

Hi everyone

Blimey, hearing you thinnies talking about losing weight and being less than 10 stone already makes me feel really fat

I was 11stone 10pound when we started this, have lost 5 of it so far, another 5 to get to 11 stone and I am only 5foot 3in. I was 11 stone when I got married two years ago so that is my first goal, next goal will be getting back into my 10's. I went up to 14 stone when I had ds in June 05, never want to be that big again.

Right I have had a good day today...

Brekkie - 1 w/m and low fat spread, small banana

Lunch - Missed as too busy

Snack late afternoon - teacake with lf spread

Dinner - Chicken pasta bake with side salad.

Steps at time of typing this 16,886 - 7.99 miles - 913 cals burned

Hi everyone

Today's food

breakfast - 2 slices of toast, tea

Dont feel Mrs fish. You've lost 5lb thats great and your on your way to your goal. Stay postitive. My figures discusting anyway doesnt seem to make much difference if im 14stone 10stone its still hidious.
Um Costababe I thought my pedometer had a dodgy battery too but it just wasnt in properly, could that be whats happend to yours too?

BlB - I'm sure it isn't that bad. Why do we all hate our bodies so much, never happy are we

Lunch A wholemeal chicken and lettuce sandwich with extra light mayo.
Dinner Wholemeal pasta with peas and onions.

I counted up cals and fat and its 1137 caleries and 22grams of fat.
