Fuck, I've literally ate my way through the last four weeks.

I was already a couple of stone overweight and now I've done loads more damage. All I do is eat and then eat some more.

I'm going to sort my shit out starting tomorrow, anyone else want to join me?

1lb off for me. Surprising.

helenb706 · 23/04/2020 07:35

Morning... just got on the scales. 10 stone's 4 pounds...normally 8 stone 10! I feel so down and can't get into my shorts. Going to go for a bike ride to start the day off positively.

Nice work, those who have lost - very well done!

I'm down just over a pound - not great, but it was DP's birthday last week, so...

Nothing on the horizon this week (ha ha) to derail me, so will just keep swerving the snacks and watching portion control.

I’ve gone from 182 lb to 179 lb. Feeling a bit more motivated now.

redavocado · 23/04/2020 07:57

I've mysteriously down 3lb which has made me want to try harder this week. Hope everyone else gets the losses they want!

Rumandcoke41 · 23/04/2020 08:03

I've lost 2lb! Thrilled it's coming off, slow and steady.... Just got to keep it up.
Got a free 30 day trial for Les Mills on demand classes and they have programs you can follow so I'm not just aimlessly doing my own thing!
I've only done the first workout so I'll see how it goes!

Well done everyone and fingers crossed for another good week ahead!

menthollyinsane · 23/04/2020 08:08

Well done all of you. Great work.

Just 1lb for me, not had a great second half of the week but I am going to try harder this week.

Good week here, lost 3 pounds. Would have been 4 but I’ve bounced back a pound due to wine last night.

OwlinaTree · 23/04/2020 08:35

Well done losers! I've gained half a lb!!

Queenoftheashes · 23/04/2020 08:41

Two off woowoo!
Weekend will be my challenge. If I can keep DP out of the coop and therefore crisps out of the house I should be ok.

HouseTornado · 23/04/2020 08:44

@menthollyinsane a loss is a loss!

Kick those cream eggs into the long grass and let's crack on with week 2.

Fluffle55 · 23/04/2020 08:55

Unbelievably, I've lost 3lbs!! That's pretty much just from cutting out the snacks! It just goes to show how much I was shovelling down my gob.

ImperfectTents · 23/04/2020 09:01

I have lost 5lbs from Tuesday the 14th. V. Pleased but also aware that half of that was post Easter water bloat.

Well done everyone else let's keep up the good work

I remember seeing this on a stall at a village fair, I think it was slimming world or something but it was very effective.

Anyone else been scoffing non stop since lockdown?
ImperfectTents · 23/04/2020 09:09

That's revolting and motivating in equal measures

menthollyinsane · 23/04/2020 09:11

@FAQs that's a worrying thought that I have over thirty of them hanging off me! Still, one less than last week.

FAQs · 23/04/2020 09:15

Same here @menthollyinsane 😫 but I’m going to tick off each one gone.

@ImperfectTents they had them in various sizes to hold and that was an eye opener especially the 5lb one !

diege · 23/04/2020 09:16

I think it's from slimming world FAQ. I remember our consultant throwing the 'fat brick' across the room to people who had 'only' lost a pound.
Good going people! Important to keep the momentum up - I am eyeing up a few nice dresses on the Hush website that I'd love to wear without having to think about layering a cardigan over!

AutumnNymph · 23/04/2020 09:20

2.5 lbs off and I have no idea how! Going to use that as a kick start and stay golden this week. Abso golden I tell you.

menthollyinsane · 23/04/2020 09:21

@diege Ah yes, the dreaded cardigan, of which I have plenty 😄

Fat brick! Grin

DrMadelineMaxwell · 23/04/2020 09:24

2lb off here. Hurrah. Especially as I've watched must how much I are not what I ate.

sushinelove · 23/04/2020 09:24

6 off me which is a massive motivator. A lot to lose though so I will be happy with any loss every week.
