So I finally got to some scales:157lbs Not sure which week to class this as? I may be able to weigh on Saturday again and who knows after that? I think walking everywhere, training for this 10k and the worry of overeating have work din my favour. Hope to keep this trend up for the next fortnight!

@erikNJ hope everything settles down for you. Would love to see you come back down the line. You've bee. A great team mate but we all know that sometimes there are other priorities or that a little time out can sometimes reinvigorate you. All the best

I tried a new taekwondo class tonight as didn't want to go a whole month without training. It was a different style so like being a clueless newbie again but I think a little humility is good to challenge yourself every once in a while. So I did an hour class and 10000 steps today including some big hills which i'm…

I've not managed to find anywhere to weigh in yet sorry. No luck with pharmacies. Hoping the pool might have some on weds or my friend's when I visit on Saturday. I'm a daily weigher and feeling a bit panicked about not weighing to be honest. I've gone so far off track without noticing before and with logging being so hard…

How good it feels to just walk places. I used to get so out of breath I'd avoid even getting to the end of the road. My world is so much bigger now and today I walked a couple miles home in blazing sun up many hills and enjoyed it!

17000 steps yesterday which included a beautiful park run (5k) along Chrissy Fields. Beautiful and great weather. Food not so good. I had a really good ice cream and lasagne. So tricky to enter this into mfp when eating out so guesstimating a lot at the moment which feels uncomfortable.

This sounds like a great day!

11000 steps yesterday. Already over that today and it's not midday yet. Still haven't found anywhere to weigh myself for Monday yet though! Any ideas?

Awesome stuff. Welll done. The only thing I'll politely disagree with is no sports when you're heavy. I started martial arts at a bmi of 47 and couch to 5k at not much less than that. They both made me want to get fitter and have helped me achieve it. Bmi now 26. I think the key is start sensibly, go slow and listen to…

Just shy of 20000 steps yesterday. Ended up getting the train the last mile though as just so tired!

On work days I sometimes only walk 70 steps. Not even walking for a bathroom break in 12 hours on a bad day. First 3 days on holiday: 15000, 18000,12000 steps. Love having time and enjoying walking everywhere!

This is still a great loss. Well done!

Dragon fruit is so disappointing. So pretty but so tasteless. I find papaya the same. If I'm having fruit I want the tasty stuff - juicy peaches, fat raspberries or pineapple with a little chilli salt.

Hi guys. I'm Laura. I've lost a whole load of weight but working on what seems like the last 10-14lbs for ages (partly because I keep changing my target). Weigh in for this week is 160. Im away for 3 weeks so need to find a way of weighing in. Those are of who are USA based - is there anywhere that tends to have scales? In…

Good day today. Ran my fastest ever mile. Could not have run a second one at the same pace but did do a slower second one. Then went to a weight loss support group that runs bimonthly. It’s full of amazing, sensible, lovely people who just understand the battle. We were talking about stress eating and how we then hate…

Weigh in day. 159.8. Finally in the 150s (by a tiny bit) I’m off work now for 4 weeks and just at home this week. It’s some planned unpaid leave after a very difficult 18 months of understaffing and some awful events at work including being assaulted last month. I’m having a rest day today apart from some planning and…

So sorry to hear this. They’re totally part of the family aren’t they.

Past (failed) attempts at losing weight have definitely consisted of this and reacting against it “well if it doesn’t work I might as well eat more/pizza etc”. A big shift has been trying to see the bigger picture. I’m living a healthier life, I’m investing in myself and I can stay the course. Weight loss is definitely not…

Weigh in day 161.5 Last few days at work before a break and going to refocus on my routines Will have a bit more time to contribute here too

163.3

I’ve been a disaster sorry. Am I too late to weigh in and be part of the challenge this week?

I’ve maintained again. Exercising really well, getting into using Strava for runs which I really like. Not logging, have been back at some self destructive eating habits after the incident at work last week (I got assaulted and it’s just not been handled very well). Exercising is keeping me feeling ok but gonna have to…

Weigh in day 161 I’ve gained, not unexpected. Started the week really well but had a really upsetting and frightening incident at work on Thursday, came home ate a packet of biscuits and got a takeaway. It’s really sad to know that after so much hard work old habits are still so close below the surface. I’m really…

Whoops. Hi Lisa, I maintained this week

Weds Tracked...no Under - very unlikely, snacked quite a lot Exercised, yes 1hr cardio/wt lifting

Tues Tracked yes Under By a whisker! Exercise nope. Work is beating me at the moment.

Tracked yes Under yes Exercise nope, got home from work at 9pm

Sunday Tracked. Yes Under calories yes Exercise no

Wow, well done! Do you mind me asking your current stats?
