Team UK & Ireland - May 2011

Hi all,

Can't believe it's almost the middle of May and I'm only just getting around to posting!. Hope all's well with you all and that you are now on your way to meeting some of the goals you've set.

Now i'm through silly season - I had an old friends wedding last weekend on top of all the bank holidays etc - I am back on the wagon (along with the rest of you!). I have gained 2lbs over the festivities but am determined to shift them and some more. I'm now looking forwards to my summer hols in August and looking forwards to being a little lighter. The hols are 12 weeks away which should mean I could another stone off by then.

Good luck to all x

Bump!

How's everyone doing? Weather has really turned here, windy and showery, yuck! Hope it'll improve, sure our summer isn't over already before it's even begun?

Had my weigh-in this morning and the weight that I had gained over the last 2 weeks is gone again, plus some more, so am delighted. Only 0.7 kg away from target, should be doable before the end of this month.

Good too hear you lost the weight you gained!! I finally hit my goal of being under 168lbs and as of this morning I was 166.2lbs!! So Happy!!

May had been hard work so far, been poorly with stomach flu but just about kept going with my exercise plan.

Gonnabeskinny20 - congratulations that's a great start - well done you! Keep doing what you're doing it's obviously working.

I have managed to shift the 2lbs this week that I put on last week after my excesses at the wedding the weekend before last. So I'm back at 10% of my starting weight now lost. This is the lightest I've been in a while but I have been bouncing around here for a couple of weeks now so need to kick on. If I can shift another 1lb I'll be at a stone and a half off which is a mini milestone in itself. Wish me luck for next monday's weigh-in!

Hi from guildford!!!

Trying to pass yourself off as a newbie KP?!? xx

Haha - Lauren!!! you know me... just trying to join in the loop... fell off massivly though and didnt stickto healthy foods... MUST find that *ping* moment which will start me on the road to weight loss... i dont know whether is because i have pretty much given up smoking? who knows but i just want to eat eat eat.... all the time! and BAD things.. like sweets... ice cream.... and the dreaded biscuits.... dun dun duuuunnnn...... LOL...

amazing that you've given up smoking!! hows it going? cut yourself a bit of slack if you're struggling because of that though - once its out of your system then you can work on the food! When I stopped a few years ago I puffed out massively - damn smoking! Makes you thin, but is naughty!!

I've been out of the loop too - trying to find my feet again as have just under 5 weeks until glastonbury and want to be looking good in (hopefully) nice weather!! Although yesterday definitely wasn't on plan.........krispy kreme and starbucks!! But 1 day isn't the end of the world

Hope you're all doing well - would love to hear about some fabulous losses to keep me motivated!! xxx

I have been using mfp for a while now but this last month started adding friends and using message boards. its nearly end of May now but hoping to loose some weight before birthday on the 29th May.

hello, im from northants, I've missed the May thread some i'm bumping in the hope to catch the June version!!

thanks xx

Hi everyone, I'm from Gloucestershire and I'm new-ish.

I joined quite a while ago and lost weight but then stopped visiting the site, changed jobs to a sedentary one and gained most of it back. So I'm back for another go.

I know it works, i've just got to find the will power to stay away from the biscuits
