  • Hi I'm in the same position, still trying to reach goal, I'm 5.2 and currently 134, trying to make it under 120 :)
  • Good advice!!! I'm glad I asked, I think I'll have to take a leaf out of your book, I'll start with the body measurement this Monday! I think you made a lot of sense. Congratulations on success!! 30lbs is brilliant!
  • Wish I had done that earlier :( but I think your right I could see the danger of it building up but so far the scale monster had been good to me. I knew it would happen I was just trying to stay ready for it! Thanks you have really helped I think I need to rethink this addiction to weigh in day
  • I'm treating more as a competition with myself at the moment
  • You might be right I do rely heavily on what the scales say
  • Then I know I have to work harder the week ahead
  • I try not to do that due to fluctuations, better to get a weekly reading, also I worry it will be off putting to see a gain on the scales and hinder my motivation for the gym
  • Thank you all for your help! I guess I just keep going and see what happens!
  • Ohhh and I'm female :blush:
  • Hi its me, I'm 34 I'm 5f 3 and I started off at 12stone 6 pounds, so as of last week I'm 12stone 2 pounds. I exercise at the gym 3 times a week doing cardio and strength training for 1 and a half hrs and 3 days I work out to aerobics videos 40 minutes long for those. I'm sorry I didnt put in as much information before it…
  • Thank you so much for your replies! I was really worrying I was doing it wrong. Im only eating back 150 calories from exercise cos I was worried that it was not very accurate too, I have been weighing everything. Maybe I'm being too impatient. Thank you so much I'm glad I'm doing the right thing I'll wait a few more weeks…
  • Thanks, Im going to throw myself into this completely iv made a food plan for the week ahead and an exercise plan now i just got to do it! I hope it works this time!
