Lucy that is brilliant! Well done and we all know the effort that has gone in to losing so much weight.

You are an inspiration to us all and have helped so many of us just in the relatively short time this board has been going.

Thanks for all your support and sharing with us.
 
Lucy, what a tremendous effort, very well done!

I have no loss to report alas :( although i have been exercising like a trouper and really upped it this week. Just one of those weeks i guess.
 
Thank you all - that is so very kind of you all.

I beat you!

I'd slipped up really badly over the last couple of weeks and was 5lb up at one stage. I'm now crawling back down to where I should be (currently just a smidgen above 200lbs)

It's amazing what happens when you take your eye off the ball and just slip into old habits. Atleast I now get it sorted before it gets too bad.

I'm expecting to be a bit of a yo-yo when I get down to my eventual target weight. I really don't know how people who say they've been the same weight for decades do it!

Andy

p.s. Current Group Weight Loss is ....

7 stone 11 lbs​

Aww andy im not to disheartened to be honest ive just lost my va va voom at the minute but being poorly never helps,,hope we both get back on the weight LOSS wagon next week x
 
Hi Steffie, we all have blips. Get yourself well soon.
 
Well done Lucy you have done really well.

I have stayed the same this week 😡

I seem to be playing with the same 2 pounds at the moment on, off, stayed the same. I would really like to loose 3 pounds before the end of November as that would get me down into the next stone.

I always find it hard dropping down to into the next seems to take me about 6 weeks
 
Hi Sheilagh, I have certainly been there with the lose, put on, maintain palava. I think sometimes our body just needs time and it eventually kicks in again. The important thing is to keep at it. Have you tried logging what you eat each day?
Keep up the good work - you have done well so far.
 
Well, i dont feel too bad now for not loosing this week.

I have tried really hard with the exercise but my weight is going up 2lb down 2lb so frustrating. I think the thing is to keep motivated, eventually it will come down, it has to! 😱

Sounds as though we are in the same boat.

Noticed that you are from Warrington.............that were my Mum is from. Spent many of my summer holidays there :D
 
Oh dear, have put back on the 2lb I lost last week.

Knew that Christmas cake was not a brilliant idea when trying to lose weight - but it tasted so good!!! :D
 
Hi Marg - only one thing to do now - a new week, a fresh start.
Has all the cake gone? If so I just know you can do it!
 
Grrr, put on a pound during the week and it's off today. That means no loss since last Saturday despite the extra exercise!:( Must try harder.
 
Well done lucy you must be so determined to have lost all that weight you are an insperation to everyone 😉

I have also stayed the same this week which is good - I haven't been too good again this week mainly due to high readings and feeling down about things :(

Well done to all of you who have stayed the same.
 
Yep - totally agree with Emma. To me staying the same is all part of the game. As long as overall we don't go up an up its all good! Well done everyone and thanks for all the kind comments!
 
Oh dear I put on 1.5lbs this week (but was deserved I have been munching and havent managed to get to the gym for 2 weeks). Somebody please give me a kick up the b******* need to get back into this...
 
Carol! Don't get complacent after your recent terrific weight loss - get back to the gym! 🙂 (Was I masterful and assertive ehough?) 😉
 
Carole, you can't do everything in one go and I know how busy you have been with Uni. I also know you will get back on it this week...but here's a big kick to get you on the way!

No kick from me other than to say that I've just had a 'relaxing' break from the weight loss treadmill myself (actually, I was not particularly happy about it, but ....)

Just enjoy the time off and make a pledge to yourself to lose that 1.5lbs and some more before your next period of 'relaxation'! 🙂
