*A New Year, A New You ~ Aug/Sept Dieting Thread*

[Netty]

Hi Can I join in??
I have lost 12.5lbs up to now following the slimming world plan, I'm now the lightest I have ever been in yrs,
although this is hindering me as I'm now faltering on the diet as I can fit in to more of my clothes more comfortably but still have another stone to lose yet.
so basically I need to get a grip of myself
good luck to everyone this week with your weigh ins

Well done everyone on sticking with it

I've lost a pound today, which is a bit of a disappointment, but then again it was my ds's birthday yesterday and there was some cake....yum....

Only a pound to go to get me into the next stone number, so trying to just set myself small goals like that.

I've lost just over 3 stones now, and whilst that's great, according to the bmi/height/weight charts I still have between 1 and 2 stones to go. Everyone keeps saying I don't need to lose any more, and I'm getting a bit fed up with it to be honest....I think I'm losing focus because of all the nice comments, but I know I need to lose more

So, on with it. Hope you all have a great week folks

Well done on a fantastic weight loss so far....

I find the people who say "you've lost enough" are secretly a little jealous!

Stick with it and once you've reach the ideal weight status on the BMI charts then choose a target to stop at

I love to hear great weight loss results - keeps me motivated!

I'm a stone over weight but as I'm tall (almost 6ft) I can carry it well so my friends keep commenting that there's no need for me to diet at the same time trying to force feed me chips!

They're all skinny minnies so I keep telling myself they're jealous I'm going to join them!

 

[higgy66]

Only 1lb off this week - it's going very slow!

 

[LunaMini]

An STS for me this week. I was expecting a gain to be honest as had a long weekend away from work which involved cake Friday (I ate nothing but croissants and cake all day. I was a a big horse show in the poring rain!) Subway on Saturday and biscuits, chocolate and cake yesterday!
Thankfully (for my waistline!) I'm back in the office this morning and back to healthy eating! Hope everyone else has a successful week x

 

[tinks_1989]

I was almost too embarrassed to even report this week. I stayed the same again Not happy lost all motivation again

Don't give up hope, a few STS weeks normally result in a bigger loss when it does happen. Keep at it, it'll be worth it in the end

well done ladies on your loss or sts

Well done

I've just weighed in and lost 1.5 which I'm happy with I'm into another stone number now, and 4lbs to go to my next half stone. My group leader set a target for me today, so I've got 1 stone and 10lb to reach it.

I keep saying this, but I'm really going to start exercising this week. I am so lazy, I do nothing I've got a really good treadmill in the house so I'm giong to force myself to do 30 minutes every other day, starting tomorrow (and the band played beleive it if you like )

Keep going everyone - we could be a couple of stones lighter for Christmas!

 

[higgy66]

Only 1/2lb off this week - talk about slow!

I'm joining a gym the week after next with a friend as we take our kids to a swimming club 3 nights a week and have to wait at least an hour for them. There's a gym there so we're going to do that while we wait. Sounds great in theory - I'll tell you if the theory works 3 weeks in.........

Hopefully that will help shed the 9lbs I need to reach target!

[irongirlof12]

[knewton64]

......didn't mean to crash the boards like this but -



YES, I too am dieting

but I am getting more and more used to my lifestyle change via proper food choices, portion control, diet & exercise, etc in relation to what I do everyday that obviosuly fluctuates daily.



Would love the opportunity to be 'un-officially' adopted by all of ya as we all go through this together.



Anywho - if ya wanna see a little of what I have been going through dieting wise and all (from the good, bad to the ugly), free free to take a look at my story - starts a little over 1/2 down on page 5 (starting at posting #68 dated July 29th) and runs through page 6 on my below listed Trip Report.......that's listed in my signature titled, "My Adventures n San Fran, Rose Bowl....Dec '13"



Congrats to all on the weight loss!!

Hi all,

after rather unsuccessfully joining this thread before I'm back with T-34 days until our holiday.
So.... not enough time for 2.5 stone off
...but any loss will be a good loss and will generally make me feel better and ready for cupcake and crispy treat heaven

 

[tinks_1989]

Finally reporting back with some good news 2lb gone this week YAY !!! 1lb away from losing a stone with slimming world and I have now lost 20lb in total. feeling a lot more positive this week.
