:D YAY! Slimmer of the Week with a loss of 4 1/2 lbs!. Having started a Slim for Santa challenge on MSE I thought I had better make a good showing at the start,so had an SP week,lots of veggies,and few syns,and lots of exercise.Back to basics really. I normally try for 1 lb loss using 10-12 syns a day,but this is too high after 3 stones lost to cause much weight loss,so I needed to cut the syns.
MY STATS
Pre Slimming World:starting BMI - 40.Weight loss for March/April - 1 stone.
1st goal - get out of the morbidly obese level,i.e.below 35 BMI. COMPLETED 1/8/17
2nd goal - reach my Club 10 target COMPLETED 8/9/17
3rd goal - get BMI below 32 (by losing 5 lbs more)
******
SW weight loss till 31st Oct - 2st 1lb
weigh in 7th Nov - 4.5 loss

******
total loss for our challenge this year - 3 st 5 1/2 lb
BMI - 32.6

Congratulations Dusty! 🙂 Miss Slinky! 🙂 Well done 🙂
 
Morning All
Today 87.3kgs only 500 gr (1.3lbs) reduction since last week.
Seem to be slowing down a tad but I guess a loss is a still a loss
🙂
 
Well done to everyone that has lost :D
Well done Hazel, we have not had Miss slinky :(
I lost 1 lb this week just updated my sig :D
 
Hiya all
Today I am 86.4 kilos 13.6 st down from 87.3 on the 11th and down fron 98 kilos15.4 st September 28th
Now got a few more problems. As well as a new wardrobe being required, my rings are to big for me now and my watch is swinging around my wrist. This weight loss thing is going to prove expensive lol

Real struggle to get to SW today. What with no exercise, eating almost half a pound of cheese from boredom,plus my great granddaughter's first birthday party on Saturday (4 large pieces of my daughter's gorgeous corned beef plate pie straight out of the oven,my first taste of one of my all time fave foods in 6 months.Whole party stuff probably around 60 syns!) I was pretty relieved to lose 0.5 lbs

. Thought I would have added another pound!
Of course I am still a pound more than I should be after last week's debacle,when I put on 1.5 lbs,but here's hoping I am getting back on track
wink.gif

total loss this year 3 st 4 1/2 lbs

I can still barely bend my knee,so I am doing this post standing up with the laptop on the kitchen worktop.Its driving me crazy not being online for more than a week,but typing standing up ,while bending to see what I am typing,is weird.
 
Hiya everyone
Today I am 85.7kilos 13.5 stones, down from 86.4kilos on the 18th and down fron 98 kilos15.4 st September 28th. My first target is 85 but the last 0.7kilos seem to be getting tougher to achieve. I guess that is 2 stones lost in 2 months.
As well as a new wardrobe being required and my rings, watch, belts, shirts and pants being to big for me now, my double chin has turned into a Turkey like flap so I guess I will need to look at a bit of nip and tuck lol
 
I would like to join in the 2018 ‘slimming club’. I presume it will start January?
 
Back on track,lost 1 lb this week. The weather was atrocious tonight,torrential rain and freezing cold,so was very grateful someone gave me a lift home,instead of having to walk 200 yards and wait for a bus!
Was awarded a free week for keeping below my Club 10 weight for 10 weeks 🙂
