Well done on staying the same Mandy!

I've STS too this week, which I'm happy with as I had a cheeky chinese buffet at the weekend! Hopefully I'll get a loss this week, as I haven't had one in a while!

Good luck everyone else!

I have been awol from the diet threads for a while - summer sort of caught up with me and I put on 5lbs which it has taken me about 6 weeks to shift again - I have been sick over the past week and thought I wouldnt have been able to make it to weigh in tonight but I did and have lost 7.5lbs - this brings my total loss since January to 4st and 11lbs - still have a couple of stone to go but no target set yet.

Good luck to everyone else.

ohh im in, my fiance is looking to lose a couple of stone (he has already lost 1 stone) so i thought i would join in to give him some support.

I want to lose about half a stone and mainly tone up. We are going away for my birthday in april so want to be looking good for then.
I walk my dog every day and we got to the gym most evenings so heres hoping we will make it.

Welcome to our dieting thread Gemma, will you be following a diet plan or just generally cutting down ?

 

[mandymouse]

Well done to everyone who has lost or STS over the last week

Hugs to anyone who has put on or is struggling to get back on track

.. and lots of luck to everyone for next week

I would like to join if I am not too late. We got back from WDW last Sunday and for the first time I put on weight while away. My DH and I are both looking to lose a lot of weight. I like the idea of aiming for 1/2 stone at a time. I have gone to WW before but can't afford the meetings at the moment so I am going to try to follow it on my own.
Good work to all those who have already lost weight. I can't wait to hear everyones tips so I can try some.

I've lost count of how many weeks in I am - I think 7 - and have lost 10lb I know it's not much but I'm small anyway so it's a big % of my body weight. I started really slowly and than about 3 weeks ago it just started to come off.

I'd like to lose another 7lb but my next goal is a further 5lb.

More importantly, I'm doing 2.5-3hrs of cardio a week (7 weeks ago I was doing 0 hrs/week )

 

[jockey]

I lost 4lb this week, and I had a takeaway!
