Nothing wrong with that Sheilagh. It is all about taking part.
I decided in June to totally turn my life around. I used to hate walking never mind a run. One day I was visiting my brother who was long term in hospital and realised due to the exercise and weight loss I found myself running quite a distance (I mean feet not miles!) accross the hospital car park and only realised cos my jeans were falling down. I am now up to just over 3k, but want to do it and in a good time. So not only am I running for the cause, and my SIL, but for myself and my health too. I will be so proud of myself if I finish! Good luck with the walking!

You have done really well achieving what you have. You always sound really positive 🙂. How much weight have you lost in total?
 
Do you have to move about much in your new role Carol? Was just thinking pedometer may be useful?

Yep I wear my pedometer every day Lucy, I average 5000 steps a day just by walking between the hospital labs 🙂
 
Thats brilliant! So thats your daily exercise now then!
 
WOOHOO another 2lb gone, my pracice nurse is well pleased as am I :D
 
Hi Alison that's a brilliant weight loss, well done!!!!:D

Aren't we all doing well? Well done Marcie xx
 
I weighed myself on the weekend and lost another 3lb but this was over a 10 day period and not a week, still need to shift another stone then I'll be a happy bunny.
 
But its still a 3lb loss Toby well done xx

Well done MaCast and Toby
 
3st 7.5lb including Toby's loss.

Somehow I managed to lose 2.5lbs this week but as I gained 1.5lbs last week, only 1lb to be recorded.

New total group loss is 3st 8.5lb

Thanks for including my weight loss, does this mean I can now post with any further reductions?🙂
 
Of course you can 🙂 And good luck with future losses :D
 
Well done Marg again - and Toby you are most welcome to join us in our weekly (or otherwise) weigh ins.

I am setting myself up for a good week next week - I see the endocrinologist on Friday so am hoping i can get the hypo issue sorted and other things which may mean the weight loss gets going again - hold your breaths!
 
I'm sorry that I forgot to give you my weight loss since 15th January. anyway it is a further 6lb, so our running total to date is: 4st 0.5lb


Well done everyone ... keep it up !!!!!
 
Well done everyone! 4 stone in a month - well almost is simply fantastic!!
So proud of you all!

I'm keen to round that half a pound up to the nearest pound!

The only thing is my scales only seem to work to 0.2lb!

I may have to be creative. 🙂
