Well i'm pleased to say i have lost 2lbs so have 9lbs to lose in 5 weeks and 3 days. I am so focused and really want to achieve my goal. Got back on the treadmill yesterday and felt so much better for it. This week has been pretty crappy in general with lots of stress but the good thing is i have not caved and started…

Feel free to add me too folks.

Hannydee, I seriously upped my water intake the last week and a bit and i really think that has helped. You still have time to lose more. Good luck x

I did it!!!! Weighed in on Friday hoping to have lost a pound and had lost 2!!! So pleased :D I'm going to continue being good until 23rd then i'm going to have around 10 days off the diet to eat and drink what i want over Christmas and New Year then get right back on it. Hope to reach 10 stone before mid March. Think…

Well done Anne. That's great news. I'm on nightshift just now so won't be able to weigh in until Saturday morning. Been drinking lots of water and really hoping for a loss. Would so love to reach my mini target by Christmas. Keep up the good work folks :)

Woohoo!!! Weighed yesterday and have lost a pound. Think i ate a lot of salty foods over the weekend. 2lbs to go now. Yay!!!

Well i pigged out big time over the weekend and weighed in on Sunday to find i have gained a pound :( My own fault. So now i have 3lb to lose by December 23rd. I'm planning on being under my calorie goal everyday until then and i'm back doing 6 mins of sit ups a day. Will try and get some more exercise in but not going to…

I have stayed the same this week which i'm happy with as haven't made great food or exercise choices this week. It's been a bit of a stressful couple of weeks for me as we have been in the middle of decorating and my sister hasn't been well and has been back and forth to the hospital so been really worried about her.…

Well done ladies. We are right on track to reach our goals :) Keep up the good work.

Awww i really hope so. It will be an amazing feeling to reach 10st 7lb for me. Got my fingers crossed for you and your trousers :) xx

How's everyone doing? I lost 2lb last week so onnly 2 lb to go. Off the booze from 24th nov to 24th dec too so hoping that will help. Been busy decorating the house the last 2 weeks so food choices haven't been great but must have burned more than i logged with all the decorating and cleaning. Hoping to get the Christmas…

We can do it folks. We have almost 4 weeks to do it in. Just gotta keep working towards it and stay positive. Fingers crossed the trousers will fit this year Missdaisy :) Anne you can do it. Maybe just need to change things up a little. Good luck anyhow xxx

I have a target to reach by Christmas and so long as i reach it i will be eating and drinking whatever the hell i want over the Christmas holidays. Hoping to get in lots of walks with the OH and my stomach is definately smaller so i won't be able to eat as much as i used to anyway. It's all about having a balance and…

Hi Team UK. Well today is not off to a good start due to those pesky scales. I have stayed the same this week despite exercising everyday. Boooo. On the plus side though in the last few weeks i have managed to buy size 12 jeans from 2 different shops and even a few size 12 tops. I was still in size 16 a month or so ago and…

Yipee!!!!! Lost 2lbs this week and am not at my lightest weight in around 6 years. Also chuffed to have managed to get size 12 jeans at the weekend. So glad to be seeing some results as i have been a bit up and down since our wedding in June. Aiming to get to 30lbs loss by Christmas and I WILL DO IT!!!! Have a great day…

lady, i do need a kleenex lol. How romantic!!!! Huge congratulations. I am so so happy for you :)

Thanks for all the help. Think i'll just stick with FT4 then.

I just fancied the pedometer part to track milage during long walks not for everyday use. Does the FT4 calculate calories burned during swimming does anyone know? Thanks for the help :)

Sound lush. Will need to give them a go. Thanks for sharing.

I made these for dessert once and just added a sprinkling of chocolate chips. Would also work with choc sauce i guess. Tasted amazing. http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1281/effortless-raspberry-iced-mousse

Sounds yummy!!!Does the calorie count include the rice? I'm probably being thick but thought i'd check.

Well that's me finished my course of antibiotics. Yay!!! Feeling so much better and lost a pound at weigh in this morning. I'm super motivated to losing 8lbs before Christmas now as that will be me at the 30lb mark. Going to take it easyish on the exercise this week as i don't want to overdo it and am still a little bit…

From Glasgow. Feel free to add me. x

I feel awful today :( It's my 30th birthday on Saturday and my sister and husband have been arranging a party so i really hope i feel better for it. Totally not up to dieting or exercising just now but want to feel good in whatever i end up wearing on Saturday. If i feel a bit better tomoroow i might try and get in some…

Oh forgot to say that i served it in martini glasses justto make it look a bit posh hahaha

I made these using saisburys butterlicious light and they were lovely. Worked out the calories at 93kcals per muffin after i created a recipe for them on here.

Well after getting back down to my wedding weight (total loss of 22lbs) i have stayed the same today and have a wedding today and my sisters birthday night out tomorrow. Will try and get some exercise in but i won't be logging for the next couple of days. Fingers crossed all the partying doesn't cause me to gain. On th…

Count me in too. I'm Nic from Glasgow. I've been using MFP on and off for the last 18 months. I lost 22lb for my wedding in June and have been stuggling to get back into things. I work in a hospice as a staff nurse and work long shifts. I tend to find that if i am organised then i do well but i also want to be able to live…

Hey guys. I've been exactly the same. Generally manage to keep on track during the week but not so good at the weekends. Seem to have lost a fair bit of motivation since our wedding in June and would really like to lose at least 8lbs more by Christmas. I do allow myself days off from time to time for special events like…
