Sorry I'm late! CW - 221.4 Down a bit I guess.

Hi all, Sorry I missed last week. This week weigh in: PW - 220.0 CW - 224.6 That is quite depressing. I've been away this past weekend and know I did eat off-plan, but also did quite a lot of walking so didn't think it would be that bad. I was back late Monday night, so weigh in is from yesterday morning and now am on a…

Weigh in PW - 221.6 CW - 220.0 So close to the 219s! Feel like I've been stuck in the 220s forever lol. Been an okay week foodwise, I'm trying to allow myself little treats and hopefully it'll stop me turning to binging. I find it helps a lot if I have something quite rich but small - so I feel like I've had that 'fix' but…

Weigh in PW - 223.0 CW - 221.6 Weight has been very up and down this week so not convinced that loss will stay. We'll see. It's been lovely weather here for a change so walked home from work today the 'scenic route' which is mostly along a river and then a canal. Nice to feel a bit of nature in the middle of the city.…

@minstrelofsarcasm - I def do 'throw everything in' omelettes (though I might start using your term lol), I don't think eggs are as expensive over here though I hear all my friends across the pond complaining. Got a pack today anyway. Had a really bad food day yesterday, just ate loads of junk - I wasn't hungry, I knew I…
-
Weigh in PW - 224.8 CW - 223.0 I'll take that as I had a blip day on Friday! Had a pretty lazy bank holiday weekend here, should probably have done more exercise but have watched my eating at least. Seems weird that we're into May already - I had some weight goals for the end of June that I'm wondering if I'm going to make…

I was utterly convinced I had posted my weigh in last week, but either it's got lost somewhere or I'm just losing it (prob more likely the latter lol). Weigh in PW - 226 CW - 224.8 Back to where I was weeks back - I guess at least going in the right direction again!
-
Weigh in PW - 225 CW - 227.4 Rubbish week, am annoyed at myself, and it's so frustrating how it's so slow to come off and so quick to go back on again 😥 Need to get my butt back in gear.
-
Hi all, Weigh in PW - 227.2 CW - 225.0 Hope everyone's having a good start to the month! Had a lovely break, lots of walking involved with the sight-seeing and I'm actually really happy to feel the difference from last time I was away when I was struggling a lot with walking any kind of distance and having to take constant…
-
Welcome to the newcomers! @minstrelofsarcasm - that's an awesome loss round your stomach, I always find that one of the harder areas to shift from - which is annoying as it's one of the areas I hate most! I'm visiting family for a couple of days (will see my mum for our Mother's Day on Sunday) and then me and my little…
-
Weigh in PW - 228.2 CW - 227.2 @minstrelofsarcasm - can I be excused for next week please? Will be away and won't have access to a scale. Am looking forward to my break, I am a little worried than food intake may go out the window, but will at least try and be mindful and I'll definitely be a lot more active, so hopefully…

Hi all, Weigh in PW - 229.4 CW - 228.2 @ljdanny - aww, congrats to your granddaughter, sounds like a packed weekend. @fknlardarse - ouch, that does not sound fun, hope you're feeling a bit better now x (also typing out our username made me giggle, def me as well!) @purple1butterfly - hope you feel better soon, I'm…

Weigh in PW - 231.6 CW - 229.4 Better than I was expecting! If I can stay out of the 230s from now on I'll be happy :)
-
@minstrelofsarcasm - hope you're feeling better. I have to admit, when I do get ill like that I can't help but think of Emily in the Devil Wears Prada film, saying, "I'm just one stomach flu away from my ideal weight." Terrible thing to focus on, but hey sometimes you need to try and think of a silver lining 😆 I had a blip…

Sorry, I'm late with weigh in - been a rubbish week. CW - 231.6 I'm annoyed with myself as scales were much further down last weekend and then I had a stressed out few days and went straight back into the 'food will make me feel better' mindset. I need to kick my butt back in gear!
-
Weigh in: PW - 232.2 CW - 231.8 Not much of a scale move but I know I haven't been as strict as I should have been this week. I'm going to London for a few days on a theatre trip at the end of March so that's my first mini-goal. I would love to be down another half a stone by then and feel better with the walking. I…

Weigh in PW - 233.0 CW - 232.2 I'm feeling quite frustrated this week as the scales have been up and down like a yo-yo. I've been sticking to my calories so I don't know what the problem is :(
-
Hey all, Yay for weekend, it's been a long week and work is stressing me out! Been an up and down week, I gave in and had takeaway pizza on Monday, but only a few slices, which is better than usual. Was at a friend's yesterday for a Galentine's meet-up and was very mindful since there was a LOT of food there lol. Also…
-
Weigh in: PW - 235.8 CW - 233.0 Woot, go team for last week :)) Well, my weekend commitments didn't go that great. I managed to stay off the snacking but def didn't get my steps in. Going to attempt to meal plan for the week at least.

I'm talking absolute averages here, as obviously I don't know your personal details. But a female in their 40s burns an average of 1800 calories a day. Let's take the mid-point of your calorie goal and say you're intaking 1600 a day. That's a deficit of 200 calories a day. Again, taking an average, you need about 3500…

Hi all, @Laurabb99 - hope you're feeling better x Wow, homeschooling 5 kids - I am in awe! @blessedgrandma5 - it's a new day, and you got this! @ljdanny - woot, congrats on getting into the 180s! 🎉I'm trying to get back into gradual exercise again after back problems (thankfully not to the level of needing surgery). Have…

Ooh, congrats to the winners! @BodyTalking - yay, another Scot! (well, I'm technically English, but have lived here a loooong time now, so I've been told I have honorary status lol). Prague sounds beautiful though, someone that's on my list to visit. The eating has been going fairly well - stayed under my dailies since…

Weigh in day - Monday PW - 240 CW - 235.8 This was quite a nice surprise since I only started adding the steps on Saturday and had a blip day on Friday. I do tend to have quite good losses the first 1-2 weeks though and then it goes way down, so we'll see how it goes! Def haven't got my steps in today (had to take my…

Hi all, Quick intro - I'm Shelli, 40s, and live in Edinburgh, Scotland. I was in this group a (long) while back, and it was great, but life and some health issues took over and I'm now at my highest ever weight. I desperately need to take control back - I want to feel healthier and feel better about the way I look. I'm…
-
@minstrelofsarcasm - I'm trying to keep smallish goals for now, as I think I have a bad habit of trying to do a huge overhaul at once and then failing miserably! So I'm back on my calorie limit for the day and needing to up with activity levels. I've had some back and hip problems, which kinda mucked me up for doing a lot…
-
@blessedgrandma5 - oh my goodness, she is so adorable!! <3 I love her little birthday hat as well.
-
Hi all, @minstrelofsarcasm @melaniedscott - thank you both so much. I was sure I'd been in one of these groups before, but I couldn't remember which one for the life of me (which is a shocking sign of both how long it's been and the state of my memory!) so thought I should probably just start again in the sign-up thread -…

Sorry, I've missed a week, been super busy and stress eating - which I'm annoyed at myself for, as have been so much better with that lately :( CW 217.4

Sorry am late for weigh in - been snowed under this week and def need to get my butt in gear! username - podperson1 PW - 216.8 CW - 215.4

Hey all, Weigh in: username - podperson1 PW: 219.2 CW: 216.8 The scale is being suspiciously nice to me, fill like I'm due for a big water weight hike or something lol. @GarysGirl78 - oh my goodness, what a cutie <3 I love his marking and his eyes! One of my exs had the most adorable collie, I used to dog-sit her a lot…
