Christmas weight loss thread

[AIMGA]

With 15 weeks untill the beginning of December I'm aiming to lose 1 pound a week. First weigh in tomorrow - anyone want to join me?

I was doing well yesterday until my dh got home and suggested an Indian takeaway. Of which I jumped at the chance then ate masses.

Still, today I have been for a 5 mile walk, had a plain scone and a bacon roll but thats not too bad I think. (Resisted a second bacon roll and crisps.)

I've not been great but not too bad either, still no period but God I can feel it's on its way. Still feeling slimmer so that's good! Will update stats etc later.

Well, I did go for a walk today - and ended up lugging two bags of groceries, including washing powder - home, so I'm knackered! I could do with a drink!

I'm having a hearty dinner tonight, I've not eaten today apart from a banana at breakfast!

I've made pork and Apple burgers that I'll have in sandwich thins because I've got no rolls but 2 of them with some coleslaw and a low cal white wine spritzer. Lovely jubbly!

I ran an extra 1k and swam an extra 10 lengths on my exercise today to offset yesterday's bad eating. So 6k and 60 lengths. Just put food into mfp and if every day was like today I'd lose 12lb in the next 5 weeks. I bloody wish!

Going to try to run 9k tomorrow if I get time, still working off that Byron burger and have been given some blackberries that I need to make a crumble with - can't not eat homemade crumble so hopefully the extra exercise will offset a small serving.

Hi can I join please? I weigh 222 lbs which is 15 st 12lbs. I want to lose 82 lbs. I'm size 22 and I am fed up of my clothes getting tight. I am hoping to go swimming tomorrow.

Final weigh in of the week down 7 lbs altogether this week. Have had a couple of slip ups so could have done better but not bad considering. Have been walking everydat and having about 1000 calories max. Swapped wine for gin too. Have got my garciea tablets to try now too to help reduce appetite. Well done everyone

Toby carvery today, undecided if I should go all out and then not have dinner or have a small carvery lunch then a light dinner. I'll decide when I get there.

7lb is fab jd88, well done!

I've had a rubbish week, will be amazed if I haven't gained when I weigh in tomorrow. I'm due on period, not sleeping well and struggling with motivation. It's frustrating because I've lost nearly 2 and a half stone in the last few months but just seem to have hit a barrier now and been losing and gaining the same couple of pounds for weeks. So desperate to get under 11 but that won't be happening this week!

Just updated myself. Have finished a five day no dairy, no wheat, no sugar (Harcombe phase 1) combined with 16:8. Three pounds down..... I've got a family get together this afternoon so could all go back on!

550cals at the carvery. I'll take that, I'm stuffed!

Well done everyone. I hope to see a loss when I weigh in tomorrow.

oh2 I'm sure you can join us, we're working towards a Christmas goal.

Some people are off to a flying start, well done losers!

I only managed 7k, mainly time pressure because I'm a slow plodder and take an hour for 9k which I just didn't have this morning.

But have eaten well so far and at the end of my period so fingers crossed for a loss at weigh in tomorrow 🤞🏻

Notta I'm struggling with periods too, keep feeling certain that I'm about to come on and then nothing. DS is 10 months and doesn't really eat solids.

My eating has been mediocre this week, nothing awful but not great.

It doesn't help that I have blocked ducts again along with the fever symptoms to go along with it...makes me just want to eat carbs!!

oh2 very welcome :)

I have done ok yesterday and today too. Not overeating but probably eating a bit too much for losing weight! I know if I continue eating like this I will lose weight but really really slowly which is better than nothing or putting it back on! Back to work again tomorrow which will help, I find it easy to not eat too much at work as I generally only eat what I take in with me. I just find it so hard to not get obsessed by food and always be thinking about what I can eat next.

This is getting confusing!! Please if you want the stats updated can you state OFFICIAL WEIGH IN so I know, I think jd you've lost 7lbs this week but I had you down for 6 so I've amended it. (how did you do it?)

If there are any errors let's me know.

We'll, someone else used the word mediocre and I'll agree to that these last couple of days. I downloaded mfp to my tablet but it's so slow and cumbersome that I haven't done it the last couple days. I'm away all week too so can't see me getting off to a flying start!

Welcome Oh2, I think some people have a Christmas goal, others (me!) a longer term goal. If you weigh in weekly let me know so I can update the list.

Aimga, this imminent period feeling is awful, I'm away at a haven this week and planned to be in the pool every day so hoping it stays away til next weekend!

Well done losers!!

I'm MrsMunn10387 if anyone wants to add me to MFP.

I've finished up the day with 2 boiled eggs and a slice of bread, calories are gone so I'm done for the day.

Will weigh in tomorrow. :)

OFFICIAL Weigh In
SW 144 Current Weight 142 Loss this week 2 and overall 2.
I weighed in at 146 Monday last week but it must have been bloating because there's no way I really lost 4lbs in one week. If I manage to get 2 more off this week I'll be 10 stone even and I'd be delighted with that.

Sorry notalotta! God knows i think its because of my.weight...iv never been this heavy except when i was pregnant. So probably slow down now!

Me please.

Ooops, just realised this is an ongoing thread? Am I too late to join your gang?!

I'm sure you're fine to join. We're all after the same thing.

Official weigh in - 151 so 3lbs down! Even with my midweek McDonalds mishap! I am hoping to see a 4 on the scale soon.

Oh can I join? I started this at 17 weeks til Christmas (on my own) as I became acutely aware that I can't get my jeans on comfortably and when the weather gets colder I can't wear my cropped trousers that I've been living in over the summer!!

I'm currently 7lbs down and feeling positive but I need to keep my motivation going
