It’s come to my attention that I’m fat. Pre obese in fact.

[MoonBaby1]

Help!!! I’m only 5,2 and weight 11st 2lb

I’ve just downloaded the nutra check app and plan to lose 2 stone by autumn.

Anyone need to lose a couple too?

Any advise please? I’ve never been so fat in my life

Well done @GimmeAy @LemonPeonies
More brilliant losses
God I admire anyone who can stop at one biscuit

I've no problem stopping at one biscuit, but ask me to stop at one Guinness and it's like taking a soother away from a baby.

Had a very long chat with two receptionists at my GP surgery about how they haven't received the consultant's letter telling them that I need magnesium supplements and they need something in 'writing'. I said well if you look at my blood results from 3 weeks ago, you'll see that my mg was 0.5, which is in writing. Then they waffled on so I suspect I'll have to ring at 8am in the morning to ask the GP to read my blood tests and/or consultant's letter and to put me on mg supplements. God forbid I didn't speak English or you'd just be left by the wayside.

PS - to everyone dieting, I'd recommend getting your bloods done out of sheer curiosity, to see if you're deficient in anything - particularly those of you who like me are struggling with energy.

I'm aiming so low but achieving (for three days lol) my little target. 0.1 kilos. That's all I need to lose a day for 40 days. Then I'll be at my target weight. My main problem is lethargy though. I know that going out for a walk gives you more energy but just putting on those trainers seems like something insurmountable to me some days (today). I've taken to writing down things I've learned and one I've learned is that getting out the door is the hardest part of exercising. I prevaricate for days.... But I still have my eye on the goal of 0.1 kilos per day, so if I manage another day of it, I'll be astonished. And if the neverending period might end, that would be good too.

My belly is still bloated today though

@GimmeAy you can have my Guiness and all other alcohol , I'll have your biscuits
I'm tea total , have never drank in my life , imagine how much fatter I'd be if I did as I gather they can have a high calorie count
Same with cheese ... doesn't bother me , but chocolate....

@isthatthesummerover like, never ever had alcohol?

@sevendevils never even tasted it - 2 alcoholic parents , 3 alcoholic grandparents one alcoholic husband and that was enough for me
Probably decided about 7 years of age that I'd never touch it
Few episodes in and out of care , 11 schools , 17 addresses ... unfortunately sweets and chocolate are my addiction
Oh and .... Come dine with me reruns

Sorry name changed to ask a question that I then chickened out asking
Isthatthesummerover here

@isthatthesummerover wow, I can see why you've never touched alcohol.

Curious now, what question did you chicken out of asking?

@sevendevils I'm crying here you cowbag 🤣🤣🤣
was going to ask AIBU to dump someone as his accent really gets on my nerves 😂😂😂😂😂😂

@isthatthesummerover no, you would not be unreasonable to dump. What accent are we talking 🤣

@isthatthesummerover but, you would probably be slaughtered in AIBU 😂😂

@sevendevils I know
That's why I chickened out and now you've outed me as the cow that I am anyway
😀

@isthatthesummerover I'm no where near brave enough for AIBU. I tend to stick to style and beauty and weight loss!

@sevendevils I can't say that or I could unintentionally insult one of our shortie friends here ... maybe even you 🤣🤣🤣
And without being too blatant I have a pretty annoying accent myself lol

@isitstillockdown I'm not easily offended but I can't speak for the rest of Mumsnet. Are you keeping this name now?

Yes I will
Don't really post anywhere else , just enjoy reading some of them

@isitstillockdown so as not to offend, I feel you should pm me the accent in question.

@sevendevils I already have Don't fall out with me now lol

OP we are of similar weight & height. I'm 5'2 & currently weighing in at 10 stone 11 pounds. I was 11 stone 4 pounds. I've cut down on my portion size & I've purchased an exercise bike that I'm currently hammering with HIIT cycling.

I used to be size 8/10 & I'm now a 12/14 which isn't huge but it's big for me due to my height.

Welcome @artyandtarty to the shortie crew

Hi, can I join? I’m definitely short and fat enough. I’m 5’2” and weigh 12st3lbs.
I started the online WW on Saturday as I don’t like weighing/ tracking everything.
I’m also redoing C25K and trying to do 10,000 steps per day.
It’s going ok at the moment, but then it is only day 3

@GinnieHempstock I'm trying to do 10,000 steps per day too. I was really excited today to find out that bouncing on a mini trampoline clocks up steps on my Fitbit.

@sevendevils I’m in the “wet myself when jump” camp, so am very impressed. I’ve still got 1,200 to go today, so have been doing some light jogging on the spot.

More the merrier @GinnieHempstock
Squeeze !!!!!
I squeeze and clench when I'm brushing my teeth
