I need to lose a stone. Could probably do with 2 actually!

I need to lose a stone, maybe a stone and a half if in being really good.

Okla · 14/02/2022 19:32

I need to start exercising! Where is the time??? I need to carve it out. What are your plans? I need to reduce portion size too.

caterpiller2 · 14/02/2022 19:35

Why don't we all get weighed now Monday being the start of the week. I weigh 12 stone and want to lose 2 by next Monday

2 stone in a week? I think that will probably need to be an amputation rather than a diet and exercise?

So guys go and weigh yourself . I will be good no munches tonight

I would love to join you all if that's ok? Have been sliding up and down the same half stone for the past 6 weeks - I lose it at the weekend and end up pretty much starting from scratch on the Monday 🙄 I would like to lose a stone/ stone and a half ideally.

caterpiller2 · 14/02/2022 19:39

2 pounds not 2 stone although I wish I had a manic potion for that

Hi caterpiller2

I would like to join I am 11stone7 today the heaviest I have been. Have yoyo-d around 10 1/2 to 11 since third and final baby 1 year ago.
I am aiming to be under 9 stone but just haven't had the motivation to do it.
Have pretty much just binge ate since Xmas and im so bloated it's crazy.
Time to do it
Good luck everyone and I'll be back next week to weigh in ☺️

Okla · 14/02/2022 20:19

Great idea, I'm in. Actually weighed myself today. I'm 11 stone (69.3kg) . I would like to be at least 63kg. Let's do this! Also carrying post - pregnancy weight. It lingers!

PurpleBirch · 14/02/2022 20:22

I’ll join please. I have around a stone to lose. I’m nearer 10 stone and happy at 9. Have spent the last 6 weeks trying to lose the Christmas half a stone but have a lot going on and haven’t focused for more than a day at a time.

Sexnotgender · 14/02/2022 20:22

I’m about 10st 2/3 or so. I’d like to lose 1/2 a stone by the start of April.
Hopefully that’s doable?

Thighdentitycrisis · 14/02/2022 20:23

I want to !

I’m desperate to start exercising again but have got a bad back. Osteopath told me today I could swim 2x a week.
Gonna weigh myself now (scared)

PurpleBirch · 14/02/2022 20:23

Sounds the same as me!

Origamiheaven · 14/02/2022 20:25

Can I join in please. I weigh 10 stone 8 lbs and need to lose a stone as well

saturdaymorningyawn · 14/02/2022 20:30

Can I join please! I need to loose a stone before my 40th in the summer. I currently weigh 11st2lb. Aiming for 2lb weight loss this week. I need to be accountable to someone or I am my own worse enemy. Am trying to calorie count.

twolittleboysonetiredmum · 14/02/2022 20:34

I do! Have gradually put it on since november and have made a few changes that have made little difference
Need to start calorie counting. I’ve stopped eating sweets/biscuits etc - basically anything with sugar but still eating fruit and carbs. That’s not helped but I feel better for it. Oh and still drinking as I don’t want to stop! What’s everyone else’s plan to shift?

caterpiller2 · 14/02/2022 20:35

Ok guys we can do this if it wasn't for you I would literally be stuffing my face right now and drinking wine. I will opt for a cuppa instead . I really think we can do this

I’m 40 in April 😫 aim to be 9.5 stone by my birthday.
caterpiller2 · 14/02/2022 20:39

So put this on your calendar your weight and week by week you can see the weight come off. And aim for half stones at a time little steps
