Hey James 2lb a week is hard work. Im not suprised you are slowing down to wards your goal it seems that way for a lot of people. The photos are looking good so keep smiling.
I stayed at 12 stone even after 5 days off work and two nights out so thats good news. woke up monday with a throat like a rusty pole and no motivation. Back at work today though so i feel a run coming on tommorrow Haven't been out since Friday !!. I think i will leave my goal as 11st 6 for christmas which is roughly half a pound a week. Working all the this weekend too so looks like i can push for 11st 12 again!!
3 hour exam on monday finalising my years uni work can't wait to get that out the way too.
Good luck everyone.

Good luck for your exam! My last one ever for uni was 3 hours long, and I was so distracted. It was so sunny outside, I had a bottle of champagne with me to drink as soon as the exam was over and I kept staring at the clock! Don't do that, the time goes slower.
Yeah everyone slows down towards the end of their goal coz there's less to lose. I've got 7 pounds left but I'm not too bothered if I don't lose it, I'm quite happy just now. I know not to go back to my old ways with takeaways every week and no exercise!

BACK ON IT!!!
After a low calorie week i managed to shift 2lbs in 4 days(Thank god for that)
I have now hit the 160lbs mark, and with 8 weeks to go need 20lbs more.
Hopefully I will get there but if not I will come very near. :explode:
Been a bit quiet on here this month people, hows everyone doing with their goals?
I've got 6lbs in 14days to do, going to be tough but will give it my best shot.
I plan to walk 21 miles each week, in the damn cold(got the thermals ready). :noway: , and have lowered my calorie to 1200 a day.
Anyway back to the chelsea game 1-1 atm so fingers crossed the blues can get a winner in the second half:happy:

I'm sitting at 11st 12 which is my october goal so might push for 11.11 for the end of the month. all good though. congrats James on the constant losing. 21 miles a week is a lot. I'm feeling good about it all atm so I'm happy. Going to Brighton for the weekend next friday, 4 day holiday so lets say 11st 11 for that.
only two days till the exam as well. *tremble*
good luck every one

ok I have hit a wall!! It f*cking hurts too.
Any suggestions guys in how to get through it? doesn't look like the 10 stone mark by xmas will be possible, so going for 10.5stone now. Looks like I'll still be here in the new year.
On a possitive note I am doing weights daily now, nothing to much but all good to tone up and use other muscle groups. That plus the 21 miles a week walking should hopefully speed things up a tad.
Will let you all know the results of the scales friday.

Hello everyone...
I have been out the cirlce for a while... just not been very motivated... i mean i've been to the gym etc.. but im not motivated enough to ignor temptations.. so i just eat them..
I've been out and bought a couple of new outfits for work but they dont fit... for obvious reasons to fit into them... but i cant seem to grab the motivation to loose the weight to fit into them... RUBBISH as they are really nice things..
ho hum.. just need a push in the right direction and stop eating chocolate cause i can feel myself going backwards...
grr.. :grumble:0 -

Hey people. Its all the same here I spend the week going between 11st 12 and 11st 13 but thats good so I'm happy. Worried slightly coz I'm off to Brighton for four days which means four nights of beer which definately means i will be up next week but nevermind i guess i will climb down again quickly.
for the first time it seems that my goal is in sight. 7-8 pounds for christmas is probably doable. anyways. Keep going James although I'm not sure how you find enough hours to do all your workouts lol. Katherine I ate most of my temptations too followed by a few bordems as well. I need a more exciting job!
As long as I keep running I will get down in the end.

No worries Katherine, thought you might be a bit busy.
I'm ok ish, lossing motivation and keep expecting result in unrealalistic time frames.
Looked in the mirror this morning and i swear the belly has got bigger even though i have lost weight.
God I sound like a woman. lol:laugh:
I so want to shift a stone befor the works xmas party, but getting harder and harder. The amount of effort to get rid of 1 pound atm is rediculase.
Anyway hope your doing ok and behaving

Back from Brighton. 4 nights of alcohol and food was great. Best chips i've had for a while lol. 3 pound gain so far I've tallied my alcohol calories to surplus 4000 for the weekend so there is one pound of fat lol. Back to 12st 2 but was worried it would be higher so i feel pretty good about it. anways i still have a week to get back to 12st but hopefully if all the waterweight truths are real it should be ok. Im stuck at work for two weeks of lates so no more drinking and lots more running!!
Hope everyone else is doing ok. seems to have gone a little quiet this week. congrats also to Katie I would dissappear if i weighed 147.8 lol good luck for the 6th there is still plenty of time.
I've started tracking my foods on the iphone now. Found a great little app for it much easier when im not at work. still waiting for a myfitnesspal app yet though lol.0 -
