Lost another 2 1/2lb this week 🙂 6lb total in the last 4 weeks - moving at last!
 
Well done Sparklestar
 
Started a diet and excercise a week ago and managed to shift 2.5kg in that time so well please, Just got to keep at it now an get rid of a lot of my 118kg bulk !
 
Maintained this week. Quite ok with that after a naughty weekend and huge slice of chocolate fudge birthday cake (I asked for a 'slither' and got something enormous!).

No weigh in for 2 weeks now though as off work for the week next week. 🙂
 
Still loitering at 100.4kg and it's starting to annoy me, I'm even thinking about shaving my entire body just to get back to double digits
 
Only 1.5 pounds off today

note to self - must try harder
 
Just jumped on the scales and whoop whoop 99.7kg, I'm going to celebrate with a 1kg steak, 500grms of chips and 18 cans of beer
 
Diagnosed December 1st weight loss 24lbs previously did lighterlife lost 12lb first week then 3-4lbs on average lost 5stones put it back on in 6 months. I decided to try healthy eating and gradually 1lb or 2 occasionally the difference is in my attitude I realised that previously I lost weight quickly and my goal was to be able to eat as much as I wanted as soon as possible. Where as now I have accepted that I have to find a way to eat moderately but healthily for the rest of my life.I have seen that slim people control their portion size which I am now doing. I know it's going to take much longer to lose weight but as long as I am controlling my blood sugar levels that's fine.Type 2 diabetes diagnosis was a real shock and I feel I have had an epiphany because of it.
 
Another 2kg for me this week, Feeling so much better for it!
 
I skipped fat club this morning - will be back next week
