It sounds like you're all doing brilliantly, with some serious displays of willpower! So I weighed this morning, and am sitting at 84.4kgs (I find easier to emotionally detach using kgs.) Here's to being less fat by September Grin I'm feeling much more positive knowing I'm not in it alone!

Not doing well

But not badly either

So have had rice and tuna for lunch...but no idea what to have for tea

Not sure what's happening due to the bloody football Grin

Rufus, same here, not bad but not as good as I should be!

Had a job interview today so ended up having giant white chocolate buttons at 1am while preparing..I am an emotional eater!!!

But I've got to say, if i wasn't on this group I would have eaten the entire pack and then some so that's good!

I'd be happy with a 1lb loss this week as so much going on and I've not been able to exercise yet.

Well as long as you're doing everything in moderation it's all good - I had some chocolate yesterday but I had loooaaads of calories left over so allowed myself some as I would have died of stress if not!
I'm trying to make it a more manageable life style rather than a strict diet, as I always end up binging BlushGrin

Weighed myself this morning after week one and have lost two pounds. I hopped off the scales so quick before it changed its mind. I am thrilled but have a long way to go. It has given me motivation. Know there will be some weeks i won’t lose anything but for now I am a happy bunny 🐰

Wow, well done EF that's great news and this next week should be easier to keep going now you can see the results.

DH birthday yesterday, went to Pizza Hut and had 3 slices of pizza (could have eaten double that!) and some birthday cake but back on track today being good again. I just need to get rid of the cake ASAP as it is calling to me Cake

Howareya 😂😂😂

I've just had to put a hoody on in this heat as I was wearing an old maternity top (I have hardly any fat clothes!) and someone was popping in to collect something and i didn't want them to think I was pregnant as I look about 5 months in this top 🙈🙈

@DaisyChops did you resist the cake?? I'm sure you don't look 5 months pregnant but I know the feeling!

EF well done! I figure focus on the pounds, and the stones will look after themselves, you're making dents in the stones and on your way. Britney congratulations on your healthy day, I hope you feel wonderful and confident. I'm just trying to avoid the processed sugaryness that I usually rely on, but I'm struggling to get organised. Think I'll have an early(ish) night, which should help.

I did resist the cake, well I had one spoonful but that's an achievement in itself. I actually think it helps when you've baked a cake as you see all the sugar and oil that has gone into it and it puts you off a bit!!!

I've done 12,500 steps today blitzing the house but I never ate much and just drank loads of water so ended up feeling sick tonight so had to dip into the plain Pringles but I'm way under on my calories so hopefully be ok!

Well done Britney, I am in the process of clearing a path to my cross trainer, I wish I was joking!!! 🙈

Well done daisyc and Brittney - great willpower!! It’s hard alright. We had lots of visitors over this week and they brought so much sugary treats. Kids won’t let me throw them out so they are sitting there calling to me - particularly this ultra yummy crunchy rockie road!!! Get me to a fruit shop!!!!😂😂

How is everyone today? It's all a bit quiet here!!!

I had a good day until about 4pm when my kids can home and all hell broke loose and I'm afraid to say I had a piece of the dreaded gorgeous birthday cake Confused

I'm sure if I go on the cross trainer for 3 hours I'll burn off the calories 😂

@DaisyChops as long as it wasn't the wholeeeeee cake you're fine! Moderation is important, don't restrict yourself from everything or one bite of the good stuff will send you on a rampage Grin

I had a good day today but what I'm finding is I'm simply just not hungry/don't fancy anything!

I make cakes as a hobby/part time thing and I'm currently doing a cookies & cream themed one, its taking so much willpower to not eat all the spare topping Blush
