Yes - get well soon, Fridge .
After a rubbish start to the week, I've actually managed to lose 1.75lbs! Smile

Fiontar649 · 15/01/2019 07:21

4 lbs off for me, very happy with that.

Feel better soon Fridge

AFridgeTooFar · 15/01/2019 07:24

Thanks guys. I'm just scared of putting in the wrong number and making someone gain 100lb 🤣

CarrotPuff · 15/01/2019 07:30

I've sts again this week. Really thought I'd break 10st barrier. Never mind, next week has to be the one I lose a bit.

LittleDoritt · 15/01/2019 07:33

Another 4lbs off for me. Dead pleased with that.

WhenCanISleepAgain · 15/01/2019 07:53

Sorry you’re not well fridge.
Those are fantastic losses Hounds, Fionatar and Dorrit.
Keep going Carrot - you’re bound to break the 10st barrier soon

WhenCanISleepAgain · 15/01/2019 07:56

Next week can be different greyandgrumpy!

AFridgeTooFar · 15/01/2019 07:58

What are people doing- besides updating the spreadsheet- to mark off the lbs lost?

I'll have a brand new crocheted blanket by Christmas (hopefully) as I'm crocheting one square per lb lost!

mrbob · 15/01/2019 08:15

I have no pounds to mark this week Grin But overall just doing a treat every few KGs

TulipsInbloom1 · 15/01/2019 08:33

It's a sts for me this week. I'm happy. I keep reminding myself of how much I've lost over two weeks and also that this is a slow process.

Finally a loss for me! Down a whole kg since last Tuesday, really please.ld with that. 3.7kg to go until my next mini-goal :)
Well done everyone!

WhenCanISleepAgain · 15/01/2019 08:46

Well done tulips and fatcats

Not sure if anyone can help me with this? I haven’t been able to wear my wedding ring since later stages of pregnancy (DS is 11 months). I’m 5-7lbs from pre-pregnancy weight. Are my fingers going to get thinner or do I need to get the ring re-sized? Can they make rings bigger?

mrbob · 15/01/2019 08:54

Your fingers will probably get thinner again! I would wait till you have lost the weight then decide whether to resize

Fiontar649 · 15/01/2019 09:08

Copied from other thread.

I can update the sheet for more people tonight, if nobody has time to do it during the day

I hope you don't mind, but I highlighted the row we need to fill in this week, and I froze the first row/column to make scrolling easier

WhenCanISleepAgain · 15/01/2019 09:14

Thanks mrbob - I hope so.
Thanks Fiontar!

StealthNinjaMum · 15/01/2019 09:25

whencanisleep fingers do get thinner when you lose weight. My wedding and engagement rings were so loose I stopped wearing them years ago.

CarrotPuff · 15/01/2019 09:55

If someone can update my numbers it would be great, it's the same weight as last week. Thanks!

ThrownMuse · 15/01/2019 10:01

Hello, please can I join? What a brilliant thread.

The thread I have been on since late August has dried up, but I want to keep on track!

I have 2.5 stone to lose, having lost 1.5 already since August. This has been with MFP, but have lost my way a little since Christmas and don't want to self-destruct.

I normally weigh on a Friday so will post then (is there a communal spreadhseet, I couldn't find it!).

My long term goal is the dreaded school reunion in September...

WhenCanISleepAgain · 15/01/2019 10:18

Thank you Stealth
And goodness ThrownMuse - a school reunion! Shock Think that’d be my worst nightmare! Welcome to the thread. Well done on your weight loss so far which is an encouragement to us that it can be done!

I’m sure there’s an easier way to link you to it but spreadsheets is on page 3 of this thread

ThrownMuse · 15/01/2019 10:46

Thanks, WhenCanISleepAgain. I'll add my weight now, seeing as it's Tuesday!

Yes, nothing like a school reunion to scare me into shifting the baby weight (looks the other way as DS is now 8)...

TheHoundsofLove · 15/01/2019 10:52

Thrown My 'baby' is also now 8! Blush

ThrownMuse · 15/01/2019 10:54

Hounds solidarity.

LittleDoritt · 15/01/2019 14:25

Welcome Thrown!

ThrownMuse · 15/01/2019 16:04

Thanks LittleDorritt!
