I'm feeling very proud of my first half a stone loss as in the past I've never made it to 7lbs. I went to weight watchers for a year and gained a stone as every other week I'd gain bk a pound more than I lost, so to have lost weight two weeks in a row and reached half a stone is a big thing for me. Good luck to everyone else on their journey.

    That's awesome! I tried weight watchers as well and it didn't do much for me. I think MFP is much better and has inspired me to lise more weight. Congrats again, and keep on keeping on!

    So I totally had to go and look up what a stone was in weight loss. I'd first heard about it in a book I was reading but didn't bother to look it up then. I then converted my current weight into stones and I like that number much better.

    I weigh 20 stones (or is it just stone?) and have lost almost 1.5 stones. Although I have to admit that I like pounds for weight loss better because the number is bigger. Haha. So I weigh 20 stones and have lost 17.6 pounds. WOOooo

    Congrats on your half a stone as well and thanks for the unexpected amusement to my life.

    Haha....that's right. In the UK we tend to quote in stones. However, perhaps it's watching too many Biggest Loser USA programs that I now think in pounds. Although I do still get a little confused with the Australian version as they do it in kg!

    For our friends across the pond who don't know:-

    14 lbs = 1 stone

    Therefore, a 15 stone person would weigh 210 lbs

    Well done! I am now only 3lbs away from 2 stone lost and the thought of getting to that milestone is a big incentive. Keep up the good work.
