Total group loss 2011

[Steff]

Well done all x

Im joining back in here if nobody minds,I wont add my 9lb as thats been and gone so as of tomorrow I will add if any weight I have lost .

 

[Twinkle]

Okay - now it seems that a lot of us are above our lowest weight and are feeling therefore that we can't post....so...
Can i suggest if you want to you still post your loss each week as any loss deserves some recognition and support in my opinion - but just don't add to the total until you are back to your lowest.

This hopefully will help everyone post again and receive and give support.

We are doing so well and like Andy says he is still 'at it and losing' so maybe seeing as many of us seem to be in that position, we can all join hands and do it together - maybe we should all make a new pledge?🙂

I totally agree, that's a great idea! I've not posted myself on weeks like that and I'm sure others are the same.

The thing about this board is it's lovely, inspirational and motivating to read everyones success! It's also really good to read when others are struggling so you know you're not alone, or if you have a peculiar week and can empathise.

So those of you who are maintaining goals, or struggling, or losing tiny blobs like I am, please post so we can all support one another 🙂

I've embarked on 'walk to work' today which is 25 mins (brisk for me!) walk there and 25 back. It gets me to work at the same time as driving would, and I feel my conscience is clear if I sit on my bum all evening! Hopefully we won't get hideous weather as that will put me off. I'm officially calling this 'phase 2' of my weightloss! Lord knows what Phase 3 or 4 will be like, but I'll cross those bridges later 🙂

Keep on keeping on xx

As a recent Newbie, I'd love to join in with you all! I have lost almost 2 stones since May, but need to lose another stone and a half. I would like to do this by Christmas if at all possible, although it's more important that the weight comes off and stays off! Also I have a 'big' birthday coming up and a few days to celebrate booked away in November, plus a week's holiday at the end of October! Obstacles, obstacles!! I have to stay realistic and keep moving in the right direction! Any encouragement greatly appreciated! Katiex

Hi Katie

If it's support and encouragement you're looking for, you've come to the right place!

Well done for your weightloss so far! Take one obstacle at a time - have a plan each time for dealing with it - be realistic though - and try and stick to it. Good luck! Will be good to hear how you're doing. Visualise success by Xmas to motivate you. Now I just need to tell myself the same thing - lol! Just my goal may be Xmas 2012 as I have so much to lose - but have made a good start 🙂

Steffie & Katieb - of course you can join in - everyone is most welcome. Sounds like we are all ready for a week ahead then. I am back to being good again this week after a run and chat with pt yesterday. Just need to get around to getting my baking done - but house is upside down with renovations at the moment! Should be all done by Sunday so can get back on the treadmill too.

Good luck everyone🙂

 

[Chi11y]

ive lost 2 stone in the last 9 weeks, a further 2.2lbs this week

 

[lucy123]

Thats excellent Chi11y - want to share how you did it? Do you have much more you want to lose?
🙂

 

[Shopaholic]

Weighed in this morning and in the last week and a half I've lost another 4lbs, so that's 21lbs so far . So if I add my 4lbs and Chi11y's 2lb (save the 0.2 so it shows in next week's loss Chi11y) we have a new total.

TOTAL GROUP LOSS 23 stone 8.5lbs

 

[Steff]

Wow Twinkle that's brilliant

 

[lucy123]

Yeah well done Twinkle - excellent loss.

Thanks folks. Still slow and steady although feeling a bit despondent with it so would love a really cracking week. Started walking to and from work now (about 25 mins each way) so maybe that will help.

I feel like the honeymoon period is over and all of a sudden it's the rest of my life! Asked the DSN for a prescription for new clothes today as I'm skint, sadly she couldn't help!

Everyone time you feel like eating something give your very cute doggy a cuddle! What kind of dog is he/she?

Aww he is cute...lazy and slightly annoying (he's still not yet 2 years old so still a pain in the bum!) but cute 🙂

He's a miniature schnauzer crossed with bearded collie. Highly strung furball! Named Harvey as I was enjoying a sherry at the time!!!

 

[AJLang]

Harvey looks absolutely gorgeous and as if he would never misbehave🙄

Friday is my weigh in on my online WW programme so I weighed myself this morning and I've lost 5 pounds since Monday Can't include it on our overall weight loss though because I'm losing weight that I put on over the summer but I'm still really pleased
