I'm delighted to have lost 3 1/2lbs this week We've just found out that dh is to be made redundant in September, so I'm sure that I'll struggle to keep off of the chocolate this week!!

Good luck everyone

Well done on the three and a half pounds, so sorry to hear about your DH's redundancy

I got weighed this morning & lost a pound. Better than nothing I suppose.

Good luck everyone.

Chin up Claire, a pound is a loss. I know it's hard when you've tried so hard but think of those weeks when you may have STS - you'd have loved to have lost a pound

That's very true Joanne, thanks. It's been THAT week aswell so it's better than normal as I usually STS.

Oh I know, I didn't think that. It was a very good point & one that I often need reminding of.

Well done Claire, better off than on

Thanks hun.

Not posted on here for a while! Went a bit off track, missing classes for various reasons. Went back yesterday and I have put on 2 1/2 pounds over the past few weeks. Still 1 stone 5 lbs down so thats good!! Bought class vouchers for the next 8 weeks so I have no excuse not to go!!

Good Luck at getting back on track Kathryn and well done on losing 1st 5lbs

I weighed myself last night and I've lost 3lb, I must admit that although I've been good (mainly due to lack of appetite) I suspect it's more to do with the side effects of the treatment (been sick a few times this week). To be honest I've been told not to strictly diet but I continue to eat healthily and go the the gym just to do a fast uphill walk on the treadmill which makes me feel so much better.

Good luck for the second week of March everybody, with all this recent lovely sun I feel summer is really on the horizon now Just think of all those lovely summer clothes

Well done on losing 3lbs honey so sorry to hear that you've not been too well though

Good Luck this week everyone

Brilliant loss but really sorry to hear about your husband! Fingers crossed you can stay on track in this stressful situation and he finds another job asap, hun..

Stop rolling your eyes, missus - that's a fab result!!! In fact, as Dr Seuss and Horton might say, "Because after all,
A loss is a loss, no matter how small..."

I am still stuck at the same weight this week ..... I know I really need to up the exercise if I am to lose any more. Unfortunately I have pulled a muscle in my lower back this morning which doesn't help.

Well done to everyone who has lost weight this week .... everyone is doing really well.

 

[scojos]

right, im back in
21 weeks to wdw, and the weight is going on not off, so back on the cambridge diet....
i have gained 28lbs since i was operated on in the summer - 2 stone, in 8 months
ok, im going to try... so back on 660 calories a day, if i can do it, worst case scenario, 1 lb a week, but thats doubtful, i will be dissing alot, fingers that are typing can be eating
tracy

Welcome back and good luck, what does the Cambridge diet invole? 660 calories doesn't sound like much...

 

[mickeyforpresident]

I've been missing for a while..... i've lots 15 pounds since I started in January, but only 1/4 pound each week for the past three weeks and yet ive been ultra careful with my calories by not going at all over (even to the extent that I had mcdonalds the other day starved all day!!)

I'm thinking about giving up if its the same this week as it is really hard and yet it's not coming off!!!! HELP!!!

Be very careful that you are not eating too little as that can stop your weight loss sometimes

maybe try varying your diet a little bit

and finally try upping your excersise levels a bit

good luck

As Nat said it could be that your not eating enough, I have to force myself to eat sometimes. Good luck for this week.

Don't give up. I agree with Natalie, they tell you at weight watchers that if you don't eat enough your body can go into a starvation mode and actually start storing fat

Good luck

2lb loss for week one

Well done you!

STS is fine - let your back get better then consider the exercise...

Good luck, Tracy!! Has the Cambridge Diet worked for you before?

Try not to give up.. In my experience, when the weight loss stalls is because your body's got used to what you're doing. I'd have a day or two off then start again but vary what/when you eat... Good luck!!!

2lb loss for week one

Brilliant!!!
