Stop the grazing. Look aMAYzing. Slenderistas spring into action to lose 7lbs in May

[BitOutOfPractice]

May the force of the Linda be with you as we aim for 7lbs off in a month

Here's a link to the April thread

It's taken a year

But yeah I'm quite pleased! 5lbs to go. This is proving difficult!

Has the woman in aibu returned to tell people how she lost that last 8lbs? She might be of help?

I didn't see that Beyond - what did she say?

I keep gaining 2, losing 2.2, gaining2, losing 2.2. It's going in the right direction but my god it's slow!

Ha Ha beyond - I read the start of that and had a right old chuckle!

See BOOP - weight loss twin - you are doing far better than me - my goal is 10st 4 but to be honest Id be happy with anything around 10st 7.

Just had my grapefruit for breakfast at work. Have a PT session tonight, DD has a club and I am then seeing a friend for a catch up - busy. Tea will probably be Poached eggs on toast

No major weekend plans so hopefully I can keep in check so 11st 3 becomes the new norm when weighing!

Here BOOP...

Little bit more to go pebbles I was only 1/2 a st away but I went to london and gained 9lbs in 3 days! 😨 looking to be 10.3 or less really

Christ Beyond she sounds insufferable doesn't she?

KOKO I hope I didn't sound too smug / insufferable myself We all know that we have to restrict intake and increase burning of the old calories. There's lots of ways to do it but that's the long and the short of it isn't it? Boring though

no magic beans sadly. My fb is full of FOODS YOU MUST EAT TO REDUCE BELLY FAT type ads.

I loathe the word "belly"

Everyone here is really keeping me motivated, 10st 0.2 pounds this morning so a 3.6 pound loss so far - usually I would gain by Monday but NOT THIS WEEKEND!! Posting so I have to report in on Monday, aiming to be under the 10

That's why this is the best thread on mn (TM) Running Very well done!

Ive gone up 1lb again. Fuck.

Thinking seriously about this trip. Have to decide today and most of the others on it are considerably older than me.

im Not agist im not anythingist but it makes you wonder about the group gelling.

fuck wank bugger

i wish id never asked

Hot pt also deigned to speak to me today and was v nice.

perhaps i was imagining.

I am very low energy today and I think we are getting pizza tonight so its not going to be a good day on the Lindafront.
I will try and walk a good bit tomorrow and definitely no wine until after run on Sunday.....

Is Sunday the 10K TV?

Niki I have found in life that I've generally regretted the things I haven't done much more than the things I have. Just sayin'

I have been off the wagon a little this week, and not lost a jot. I keep thinking, salad for dinner, so a couple of sweets or a fishfinger nicked from the kids will be fine. But it isn't.

Eek the kids' food is a nightmare temptation

Bird the kids good is my down fall too - and all their snacking! I try and make myself a big cup of tea now and take sips of that every time I'm tempted to nibble their teas and biscuits and cheese

I'm down to 11,10 but hoping it's actually a bit more than that as I'm on the pmt water bulge. I think I must be loosing as stretch marks starting to show on my torso which happens to me when I get smaller - these are good and bad therefore!

I would def say to anyone struggling with a plateau to take their vitamins - esp vitamin d - it def has helped me start to loose.

Too late not going away now. :(

Oh no. Why not?

bottled out. i am a nervous one.....have anxiety.

Niki is there something else you can do instead? Smaller scale?

Shred Level 3 done (with pause to shout at speak sternly to DD for ignoring my panted instruction to Leave The Remote ALONE halfway through the last circuit. I can't work t'internet on the PS4 very well so once she'd pressed random buttons I couldn't make it go back to where it had been and had to finish from memory). On about 900 calories so far - v small dinner coming up!

5th consecutive golden day. I cannot wait for Sunday when I allow myself some chocolate. I'm a bit fed up of it all at the moment but trying to keep on track.

I think I need a week which isn't quite so strict next week or I will be falling off the wagon I'm sure.

You are all doing very well this month.
