I will be attempting to sort my fatness out, and start to make an effort with myself again.

I'm starting tomorrow, who's in?

Yes! How many days is that then?

LadyButton · 29/09/2020 17:19

I immediately considered the number of mince pies I will have to turn down. But then that’s probably a good thing...

Twelve weeks to go, I’ve lost some already this year but would be nice to lose another stone.

LadyButton · 29/09/2020 18:00

A stone in 12 weeks sounds pretty sensible and doable. I lost half a stone at the beginning of lockdown but put it back on since I started a new job.

pyxi · 29/09/2020 20:02

86 days. That's long enough to make a difference.

I will weigh myself in the morning.

@IWillWearTallGreenWellies I'm not doing well either. I'm going to make a big effort this time.

I’m going to weigh in next Monday, and between now and then try soooo hard to be good. I can’t face the scales just yet.

pyxi · 29/09/2020 20:23

I'm not looking forward to facing the scales either. I've been mentally preparing for a few days 😬

I’m in!

Managed to lose two stone since March, which is halfway to goal. Would love another stone off by Christmas

canigohomenow · 29/09/2020 20:25

Good god yes please!

Need this.

I realised last week I have spent the last four years hating myself and my body. No more.

It's my snacking and drinking I need to get under control!

LadyButton · 29/09/2020 20:26

I’ll weigh in tomorrow 😬😬😬

gingerwhingerwife · 29/09/2020 20:28

I'm in. Would like to shift a stone

bumbledeedum · 29/09/2020 20:34

Yes please, I'm in! I managed to put on a stone in lockdown, then lose 2 but have put a load back in the past month sulking about my cancelled holiday and plans.

Rupertpenrysmistress · 29/09/2020 20:40

I am in, heaviest I have been and keep trying and failing. Are we all recording our weight tomorrow? Is everyone just generally eating less and moving more? I have some slimfast products but not really sure what I am doing yet.

MrsEfr0n · 29/09/2020 20:41

I’m in too! Would love to lose a stone by Christmas Smile

Nuneaton · 29/09/2020 20:44

Me too, a stone by Christmas would be great.

@Rupertpenrysmistress

I used MyFitnessPal to begin with, which really helped me re-set my expectations of portion sizes etc.

Seem to have hit a wall/plateau for a few months Sad. Hoping it’s a case of increasing muscle mass at the same rate of fat loss

pyxi · 29/09/2020 21:34

Thank you all for joining me.

I'm in! I am beyond disgusting and need to take myself in hand - I will join the weigh in tomorrow!

pyxi · 29/09/2020 21:46

@wizzbangfizz I feel the same. Big day tomorrow 😁
