Term begins tomorrow!

Im thinking I could shift some of the excess fat by dieting and exercising according to the school calendar?

So:
*Mon to Fri - diet. Im planning on low carbs plus no booze, soft drinks, no snacks etc.
*Weekends - relaxed but mindful
*School Holidays - relaxed but mindful
*Three PE sessions a week - this will be a challenge for me, thinking an attempt at running, plus walking to work at back (6k steps round trip) three days
*Monday morning assembly aka Weigh In, term time only

I will weigh in tomorrow am but reckon am about 13.5stone at 5 foot 2. Ideally Id like to loose 4 stone, in time for next Summers holiday as we will be abroad for the first time in 6 years.

Anyone wishing to share their menus etc, join in!

Im going to update this thread as much as possible so will probably be more of a diary if others dont fancy it.

Well same weight as Friday but that is a slight increase over last week.

In response, have done day 1 of the 30 day shred, without weights. Please send help. May not be able to lift arms tomorrow Grin

1kg loss this week but I'm still on track to lose a stone in a month!

Only 2lb off today (was hoping for more as it's only my 2nd week but meant I got my half stone sticker)

2 nights out last weekend with no real planning but back on track by Monday and definitely motivated 😍

Well after putting on weight during a birthday weekend binge I have actually lost weight and am now about a pound under my starting weight. Finally going in the right direction, must be the exercise!

I've lost 6lb since 1/9 so I am very pleased :) getting there. I struggle with the weighing bit as my weigh seems to fluctuate wildly - can anyone explain?

I forgot to weigh myself on Monday, but had dropped a little more weight yesterday --before meal out in the evening. I will aim to weigh myself on Mondays and Fridays!

Not much exercise this week though Blush

Ugh, not a great week - didn't lose any but then I suppose I didn't gain either!
