Morning all So despite not learning from last week and once again moving Madame Scales to various locations so that she could marvel at my yoga postures , I had to round up that ¼ lb., even drying my hair didn’t help So this last week has been a bit mixed to be frank, there was a bottle of red wine with my name on it (had…

Hello all, trust you are all well and enjoyed the Easter break Well "Madame Scales" was moved around the bathroom floor a number of times but that lady was not for turning and so with a combination of Easter , some alcohol , some chocolate and not much exercise I have had a gain. In fairness I rounded up the quarter pound…

@amskinner87 not sure how you do the blue hyperlink but yes having dogs is great , they are always there for you and are just so eager to please. You get to go out and you meet loads of people so are good socially as well as getting you out of the house to walk in all weather, so just get one - there are loads of dog…

Morning fellow wobblers, trust your week has been full of joy (and restraint) It is that time of the week again when thoughts turn to how to loose that extra lb or part thereof to the cruel mistress that is “madame scales” – (I just knew that extra cup of coffee was a mistake...) Last week was dominated by my cold (still…

tinkerbellang83 You sound like you need a bit of a break here - I think so much of everything we try to do is mental (we blame ourselves, set high expectations and put a lot of pressure on ourselves) and you sound like you are very strong to have been sticking with this for 2 years but also you need to be a bit kinder to…

Morning all. Another week for Wobble. Trust you are all well and that the scales are being kind to you (or if not they are broken) For me, this week has been a bit mixed food wise - fudge is very nice really, exercise went slightly off the boil due to other commitments but on the whole I have been sticking with the…

Romania , sounds interesting - isn't that Dracula country? supposed to be really nice I am off to Fuerteventura, which it says is a balmy 23C ( yay ) so great news, really looking forward to it, I struggle with the dark gloom of winter and going for too long without a break, I think this has got worse as I have got older,…

tinkerbellang83 thanks for the reminder- Interesting to remember good food v bad food is not sometimes what it seems. We are so programmed here, we eat something "nice" then feel guilty so they become bad - I do like MD breakfasts.... I have a weeks holiday coming up in the next couple of weeks ( can't wait ) but as it is…

Many thanks all (I am 5ft.10 BTW) - I was rather getting used to the 1800 cals. I had but guess it has to reduce for this to work. I will look into the alternatives suggested above once I am nearer the first (he says rather hopefully) target weight. I agree some of the exercise cals. you get back are a bit random - not so…
-
Sorry to ask what may be a rather dull question but....... I was playing around with the settings - really just to see if I could set at 1.5lbs a week and what that meant for the daily calories, after a split nano second, I thought much better of it (well perhaps more "sod that") and reset back to 1lb a week. Now here's…
-
living the lean dream by the "deficit mindset" are you just (I say just as it is not that easy to do) not using your calories allowed for that day ? If so why don't you just (again just!) alter the weight loss regime - I have the1 lb a week setting so a massive 1800 cals. for me a day..... if it were more (1.5 lb pw) I…
-
ok so 1 lb for me this week - I had a few days out so that was partly the reason and the fact that the 4lbs the week before was I suspect a bit of a false reading, but nice not to have gone up. It is hard not to feel anxious when you are not able to see what calories something is etc, so I just tried to enjoy it for what…

I'm celebrating this week because I am back into size 16 (that's an American 12) trousers today 🍾 Well done - bet that feels good I have a range of trousers in the wardrobe all just waiting for me - I am going to start measuring my waist and stomach I think and start tracking that as the weight will I suspect go up and…

Swimmers get even more hungry :smiley: those boys are practically giants! You'll have a huge grocery bill for sure. I used to swim and boy could I eat what ever I wanted , whenever (oh happy happy days ! ) you are right they will eat you out of house and home

Hi all, no swim last night as planned ( a bit late walking the dog to the left, in the rain ) but a visit to the Gym. Some "weights" , mild torture on the stomach that in my book passes as stomach crunches - most of the difficulty being the stomach shape itself getting in the way ) and a trip on the elliptical trainer…

Hi everyone - the app says I have been a member since 2013 well , all I can say is that I have gained weight since then and had to reset the password and the parameters - what I hear you cry, I am supposed to follow the weight loss and exercise for this to work? - there I was thinking all those lovely pounds would just…
