    Yay, go softies!!!!!
    8een a good week for me, ive tried not to go under 1100 cals, and have done some 'zigzag' of my calories. Im now down to 9st 4lbs which is the lowest I ahve been since 2007! I have another 4lbs to go, but i'll see when I get to it how I feel. Maybe i'll aim for 8st 10lbs. Im quite small only 5'2''. But for now im sooo pleased my hard work is paying off

    Yay! Go Southern Softies.

    Sorry for the 2nd maintain...this week it'll all come off...I'm changing up my diet so it is more nutritious, drinking more fluids and trying to burn 400 cals a day...which hopefully should equate to some weight loss come next Friday!

    Well done everyone!

    Well done everyone - especially the rest of the softies. Sorry I didn't pull my weight (pun intended), I hope to do better but I'm nearing my goal weight so things are gonna slow down a bit.

    Yay! I got a name-check!! Ooh, I feel all motivated now, I can't let my fellow Southern Softies down :)

    Just measured myself, I've lost 2" off my waist since 27th Jan, and 1" from my chest. It's going, slowly but surely! :)

    Good to know you're seeting the results in measurements too Ellie. I measured myself yesterday and I've lost an inch off my waist and hips in the last month so I'm well happy!

    Well done to the big losers this week. I am happy with a 1% total loss for the week. See if I can replicate this week with some big sessions down gym. Weekend away next week so doubt I'll be able to provide figures.

    Well done to the Softies !!

    What is the overall score 3-2 to Northern ??

    What is the overall score 3-2 to Northern ??

    We called week 2 a draw, so it's Even Stevens....

    The up to date results (% loss for each week) including all the people who checked in late so didn't get published on the table:

    Numpties 1.34, 0.76, 0.59, 0.80, 0.55
    Softies 1.18, 0.75, 0.83, 0.38, 0.58

    but Week 2 Numpties result was 0.75 if I used my pre-shower weight, rather than post shower lol. I reckon if it comes down to half a pound between teams, it's a draw!

    well done all... looking back at past weeks, a slow week is followed by a strong week, so here's hoping for all..

    I've pretty much stayed the same for the last 3 weeks... I've got to lose something this week, right?

    If all else fails, send me your weight in kgs and I'll not translate it to lbs :laugh:

    Sorry about the delay...week 6 results here, cleverly called week 5 again because I'm not on top form after my birthday celebrations !
