Anyone want to join me? It's 1st February tomorrow which seems a good day to start.

Three stone to lose here, I can't put it off any longer. I hate being overweight.

Nothing fits me and I am so miserable.

Brilliant, well done!
I’m back on it this week after going off the rails last week. I’m trying 16:8 again (but still having a much needed white coffee when I first get up)

Onamissionn · 22/03/2021 18:52

Well done everyone!! So great to see everyone getting back up after a knock back, that’s always been a huge struggle for me. One bad day usually meant I gave up, but reading so many people on here have slip ups and then jump back to it has been soo encouraging so thank you!
I’m 3lbs down this week so 8lbs total for March so far and 21lbs since I started on 1st Feb and finally have reached 10 stone today. I can’t quite believe it!

LBB2020 · 22/03/2021 19:33

That’s amazing @Onamissionn well done Smile

MischiefManager · 22/03/2021 20:01

Wow @Onamissionn that's incredible! Well done!!

MischiefManager · 23/03/2021 06:57

-0.4lb today, lowest so far again. 12.8lb in total Smile

Onamissionn · 23/03/2021 08:29

Thank you both.

mischief that’s great, well done! And So close to that stone.

LBB2020 · 23/03/2021 08:47

I managed to stay on track yesterday Smile fingers crossed for another good day x

MischiefManager · 24/03/2021 06:31

-0.2lb today, -13lb total. Seem to be having some nice steady weight loss this week Smile

LBB2020 · 24/03/2021 11:29

You’re so close to a stone now! Smile

MischiefManager · 25/03/2021 07:08

-0.4lb this morning. 13.4lb total loss so far.
Weirdly I've eaten more calories this week but I'm having a consistent steady weight loss all week. I'll carry on as I am while it's working though!

Hi. Does anyone mind if I join although I’m late to the party?

Had DS in mid December and weighed 17 and a half stone Blush (please don’t laugh!)

I lost about half a stone in December - it was an emergency c section so had a lot of fluid retention. Lost another stone pretty much by accident in January. Then on February 1 started to consciously diet. I was 16 stone on feb 1 and am now as of this morning 13’10 so I’ve done quite well really!

I am a bit worried about end of lockdown as I know DH is going to want to go to pubs and restaurants and cafes ...

My target is 9’10 so exactly 4 stone to lose!

LBB2020 · 25/03/2021 09:55

Congratulations @daisiesanddaffodils on your DS and weight loss so far!
I had DS2 in September and am working on losing the last of the baby weight x

MischiefManager · 25/03/2021 12:04

Wow that's amazing @daisiesanddaffodils well done! And congratulations too Smile

daisiesanddaffodils · 25/03/2021 18:07

Thanks! I am struggling with Easter chocolate now!

MischiefManager · 26/03/2021 07:29

Maintained today. That stone is teasing meWink

LBB2020 · 26/03/2021 07:57

10st3 this morning, I’m happy with that Smile I’ve mostly stayed on track with food and have done an exercise video twice so far this week (planning on doing another today/tomorrow) alongside my daily walks.
You really are so close now @MischiefManager!

Onamissionn · 26/03/2021 17:49

daisiesanddaffodils that’s an amazing loss, well done!

LBB2020 congrats, and well done on the exercise videos, I find it so hard to find the motivation for them!

MischiefManager You’re soo close! I’m being taunted too, desperate to see a 9 on the scale and have stayed at exactly 10 stone this week despite my best efforts.

LBB2020 · 26/03/2021 18:37

Thank you @Onamissionn we’ve just got DS2 into a proper bedtime routine rather than him being downstairs with us in the evenings so I’ve been doing exercise once he’s in bed! I forgot how nice it is to have your evenings back Grin
Hope everyone has a good weekend x

MischiefManager · 29/03/2021 08:26

0.8lb gain over the weekend which I'm ok with so back on it this week to try and get that stone gone 🤞

MischiefManager · 30/03/2021 09:30

Lost the 0.8lb again today so let's see if I can break that stone this week!

LBB2020 · 30/03/2021 10:08

Fingers crossed for you @MischiefManager
I started the week well with a long walk and and exercise video yesterday, I wasn’t too bad with food either and remembered to drink lots of water! Let’s see how today goes!

Onamissionn · 30/03/2021 23:05

Sounds like you’ve both had a good start to the week!

I’m down to 9.13, woohoo. Never thought I’d see a 9 on the scales again Grin

LBB2020 · 31/03/2021 11:36

Wow @Onamissionn that’s amazing!

LBB2020 · 02/04/2021 08:55

How is everyone doing?
I finished the month at 10st3lbs Smile hopefully in April I’ll get to 10st or under.
Hope you all have a great Easter weekend x

Onamissionn · 02/04/2021 21:54

Well done LBB I’m sure you’ll get to the 10stone mark over April. I was 9.12 this morning so was very happy with that but had my first proper cheat day today since 1st Feb and think I’ve gone a bit (a lot) overboard so hoping to get back on track from tomorrow. Have a great weekend!
