Went back to my WW class on Saturday morning and was pleased to find out that I had only put 1lb on over Xmas and the new year. Gonna stick with WW for the time being as just can't get my head round low carb right now.
 
I had a mixed week abit up and down. Had some goodish days and some not so good.
 
I am new here diagnosed on 6th Jan. I am going to follow my SW plan and hoping to lose 7lbs in January. My weigh day will be Saturday.
 
Hi Grannylorraine and welcome aboard! Have maintained my weight this week, so no loss for me, but given I went back to work last Thursday and have been sooo hungry, am fine with that! Must do better this week!
 
Bit late I know but I would love to join in. I would like to lose half a stone a month every month this year. I lost a pound last week and had also lost 2lb over Christmas although who knows how I did that!
How are you all getting on?
 
1/2lb loss this week. Happy with that. A loss is a loss
 
I stayed the same... which to be honest I'm amazed at considering I had pizza and Indian takeaway this weekend. Being good now tho and exercising like a crazy person - good luck all this week and well done those that have lost!
 
Grovesy I will join you on the bad day step for yesterday. After nine days of keeping to my calories yesterday was way too much alcohol and way too much food. But today is a new day and we can do this!
 
Well done everyone who has lot weight or stayed the same. And for those of us that have had bad days the next day can always be a good day 🙂
 
I'm looking forward (!?) to getting on those scales at work tomorrow morning, I feel like I've had a good week. Will let you know tomorrow though . . .
 
Well, results are in, and I have lost 2lb this week 🙂

Not as great as it could be, but its a start!
 
A loss is a loss. A healthy weightloss is between half and 2 lbs a week.
 
I'm a late enterent, although I started my program on the 1st Dec when I was 118kg, I've just weighed myself and I'm 106kg. My target is 85kg
 
No loss from me slight gain but I am not beating myself up about, as we are reeling from having to say good bye to our nearly 16 Year old Labcross last Wedensday.
