    Hi everyone, hope you are all ok? I'm not sure how much I lost in February, I think it was no more than 2 pounds! Lots of stuff going on, so it was hard to stay on track. I'm hoping that this month might be a bit better...I'm getting closer to my goal, so I suppose it was always going to slow down a bit! I'm hoping to lose another 2 - 4 pounds this month. I'm hoping that this week I will drop one more pound and finally be in the healthy range of the BMI.

    Good luck to you all.

    Hi, I missed the Feb board but thought I'd join you on this one. Feb was not such a good month weight loss wise, but getting back on track for March. I have lowered my weight loss goal to 1/2lb/week as I have only got about 6 to go. I am hoping the extra calories help. :)

    Good morning everyone! Hope your all ok and had a good day yesterday...

    After my horrible mood i was in yesterday i went to the gym.. for a 10 min warm up before legs bums and tums.. so all in all i burnt about 400 cals.. not a lot considering, but at least i burnt some!!

    In a better mood today, thank god.. i dont think i could handle another day of being in a strop!! :grumble:

    Went out for a drink (non-alcoholic) last night with an old school/family friend so that cheered me up!

    I've got a training course today and tomorrow so i might not be around as much as normal...

    Have a great day peeps!!

    Ooh I'm down in Guildford this weekend to visit a friend! It's not going to be a calorie-friendly weekend, I tell ya!

    Hope everyone is ok today?

    It's my Slimming World WI tonight, so I will hopefully have shifted that pesky 1lb TOTM gain from last week. It's only water, but it's still demoralising to see a higher number on the scale!
    Did a fab step class last night with a new instructor who did loads of really dancey-type moves and worked us really hard. Did wonders for my exercise cals yesterday! Shame I didn't get to eat them though lol.

    Have a good day all. Long meeting for me, so I'll check in later with my WI results.

    See ya

    Works still dragging me down :frown: , but I'm not going to let it affect my dieting. :smile:

    Went the gym last night, had a good workout, burnt 696 calories. So glad I've got loads of TV shows to be able to put on my iPod to keep me focused. Watching Californication at the moment, then got Perfect Strangers and the wonderful Due South to come!!

    Going again tonight, can't be bothered with a meaningless England friendly game, might as well do something worth doing. :laugh:

    Hope everyone is well!

    Hi Katherine, Yes I used to live in Buryfields, Millmead, think it is now or was Guildford School of Acting, then moved to Compton and then Godalming. When I was 22 I moved to Bournemouth and I now live on the Sunny Isle of Wight !!!!! Glad to hear you are feeling happier today, hope everyone has a good day!!

    Hi Everyone!

    I feel lousy today, I didn't do too great at the gym last night I just had no energy whatsoever and I'm meeting a friend tonight at Pizza Express 241 (Organge Wednesday's) and that's pretty much zapped all my cals so I'm not looking forward to just having soup for lunch but ah I'm sure I can do it!

    I have a seminar tonight too so I can't go to the gym - do you all find also that even if you don't go over your cals you feel really BAD if you can't get to the gym? Eugh!

    I'm going for a power walk around the park at lunch and this afternoon to get some form of exercise in, lol!

    Have you all have a great day!

    Good evening all UKers! I hope you have all had a good day, my day was not very productive but have just done an hour at the gym, 30mins x-trainer and 30mins circuits. :) Feel quite good but we are having a spinach and ricotta cannelloni for dinner, which is a little naughty. I have the calories for it though!
    What have you all done today?

    Hi guys, hope you dont mind me joining team UK, but any motivation / tips would be greatly appreciated. I have been using MFP for while and lost 6 lbs since November. I have been making a big effort since January to really stick to the cals and joined British Military Fitness to help get me into shape!!

    I get married in Sepember so that is my main motivation. At my last official weigh in I was 11.1, and would Love Love Love to get below 10 in time for the big day!!

    My weight loss so far has been slow and steady, but I have to admit I am a bugger for treats, i.e. most weekends I go off the rails. Have been trying to limit the alcohol at weekends as I can not stop troffing if I have a hang over!!!

    I am going to aim for 5 lbs in February so that would take 10.10 which I would be delighted with.

    Good luck everyone.

    Hi everyone,

    I lost 0.5 this week, not great but it's all in the right direction and I've now lost the 3lbs I put on following a wedding 2 weeks ago
    Going through a bit of a rough patch at home and my fella's moving out for a while so my main aim is not to comfort eat at night, which tends to be my main downfall!! I need to take up a hobby to keep myself busy! xxx
