@kali225 I feel your frustration. I was so on it, until I wasn't! You'll get there, I'm sure - that almost 40lbs has come off before so it can come off again. In the space of 60 seconds I've gone from 'that's not for me' to 'I could maybe do it a few lunch times a week'. I do definitely need to cut my caffeine free, diet…

I've lost track after we've been on holiday... That said we were on holiday so I'm going to choose to ignore it! We ate out for virtually every meal, so I was generally pretty full and didn't snack much anyway. Next month I'll pay more attention all the way through. Me: 27 LNS: 1 Streak: 26

PW: 79kg CW: 79kg Not complaining! But back on it today, which means tracking everything including water intake. There's a small chance I might go over my calories for a couple of days (I seem to be super hungry all the time) however tracking what I'm eating is more important than what I'm eating this week - I need to get…

Welcome back @PlaneMonkey - we've missed you! I stepped on the scales this morning and was pleased to see that I weighed 0.5kg less than my last check in. After the week we've had, I'll take that. :smile: I've been for a run today and spent the whole time worrying about my dressing not staying in place. The run definitely…

@jugar I am glad you got to see more of your family again. It's difficult to go so long between visits that's for sure. @kellie_erin I'm sorry for your loss. I'm sure your cat has left a big pawprint on your heart and will never be forgotten. In terms of goals, I'd really like to be under 75kg by the end of the year. I…

@kellie_erin I'm sorry about your cat. I think you need to decide whether they seem comfortable, and if they are, allow yourself some time to say goodbye. Nobody else can make that decision for you, but I'm sure you'll do the right thing. @jugar I always struggle to know when I'm full. I think as soon as I start to…

Hey all, I hope everyone is OK and life is treating you well. I was going to say I've been too busy to come on much but thinking back that's not quite true. I have worked late (very late) some evenings, but I think the main thing is I am stressed and drained and therefore eating everything and avoiding tracking. I have had…

Me: 15 LNS: 1 Streak: 15 I'm forced into this at the moment because I'm taking antibiotics and they have to be taken on an empty stomach. I've managed to give myself three 2 hour windows to eat - and the last one ends at 8pm!

PW: 78.4 CW: 78.7 I'm really short on time, so I'm just going to say "all you can eat South American BBQ yesterday". :D

Hey all, it's turned into a busy week here. I had two perfect days, then yesterday I was good during the day but we had a work team night out - it was the first time I'd seen most of my colleagues in person in over 18 months. We went to an Indian so unsurprisingly I had a gain on the scales this morning. I really enjoyed…

PW: 78.3 CW: 78.4 I don't have time to catch up with all the posts but hope everybody had a good weekend. I have finally started finding this hard. That feeling took longer to kick in than I expected (over 8 months) but it's here now. The problem appears to be having a busy social life which means I stop tracking, combined…

@Kali225 today I'm wearing wrist warmers, jogging bottoms over my leggings and a body warmer over my sweater! It's supposed to be 20C in the house, but I'm chilly sat at my desk. I've read that it's really common to feel the cold after weight loss, so if I'm this bad now, next year I'll be wearing a ski suit in July. :D

I'd like to join, please :smile: Snacking in an evening is often where I'm at risk of eating more calories than intended and it's a habit I would like to break. For me, LNS is food after 9pm; this doesn't stop me having a treat after tea, but prevents mindless tv-eating later on. I did eat after 9pm yesterday so: Me: 0…

Hi all, and welcome to the new team mates - it's great here ;) That was a busy weekend for sure. I worked late on Thursday to try and get something handed over to colleagues, only to have to pick it up this morning but hey, that's some TOIL to add to my holiday allowance. Friday I had a 6am training session, where we…

@ashleycarole86 we're doing a 20 mile walk together next month. One of the guys is responsible for getting us into walking - after we moved closer to my job in 2019 we decided to go on one of the social walks he organised - and makes a great guide. Last year when I was really struggling fitness wise, he made sure the group…

PW: 78.7 CW: 77.7 I was going to complain that I was 1/2 a kilo lower on Saturday, but that's still a 2lb loss so I rescind the negative thoughts. I'm sorry about your kittie @conleywoods. @Kali225 good luck with your exam, and I hope the storm isn't too brutal. @Terytha that sounds like a lot - you're doing so well to…

@jugar@EvMakesChanges how fantastic that you'll finally be able to catch up in person. Hopefully that will be a great distraction from the recovery process. I hope your daughter finds a new job soon @micki48 - it must be a really tough market out there at the moment. We walked/ran 8k last night - I was pleased. It took…

@EvMakesChanges I liked the sartorius better before he touched it lol. It's still sore to touch, but has stopped aching generally now. I hope your surgery goes to plan, and you have a speedy recovery! I definitely took advantage of having no plans last night but luckily we'd been for a walk at lunch time. I did some admin…

I hope you can adjust @KellyBgetsfit, that sounds like a tough combination to deal with all at once. If it helps, yesterday I weighed 1.3kg more than on Friday - and today I've lost 0.6kg of that gain. I find a temporary gain comes off as quickly as it goes on, so don't feel bad about it as there's time to pull it back for…

Happy Tuesday all! I went to bed straight after work yesterday for 2 hours, then it was almost midnight before we went to bed (combination of Spock wanting snuggles and cross stitch, for me!). I definitely overate yesterday but I am a lot brighter today, helped by getting up at 6.30am to go running though I could've…

Too long since my post and I can't edit. @Terytha we saw Free Guy on Friday night and I loved it. Hoping to get to see it again soon. @gak71 we also have an air fryer (a Ninja one, but not the foodie because we're short on kitchen space) and honestly we use it for chips and one chicken dish. As others have said, it can be…

PW: 77.9 CW: 78.7 We had a very good weekend! 😂 Mostly water weight hopefully so should be back on track within a couple of days.
