  • Just back from the gym/weigh-in and am just 2 lbs off my "goal weight" of 133lbs and 10 days to go until my wedding!! I've gone from 156lbs to 135 lbs in just over a year and a half. I saw the biggest change when I started doing weights last July so anyone struggling to see much improvements with cardio only it's worth…
  • I just sent my engagement ring to the jewellers to be re-sized smaller! bye bye chubby fingers!
  • Good to hear this! My scale isn't budging either! It is frustrating as it is the easiest way to track change... Hope for me too it is a case of muscle building/fat dissolving. Have just started lifting 2 weeks ago so my routine is all a bit new still
  • Started at 155.. now at 139... Goal weight is about 134... I'm feeling comfortable in my skin again but a few more lbs less would be great!
  • I was 155lbs at Christmas and now down to 138.5lbs... My goal is 134... ultimate goal 130.. I hit a plateau for months swinging between 145 - 148lbs but I started doing weights and eating "clean" and I've been steadily losing the lbs since. Diet is so important - I now bring a packed lunch and some healthy snacks to work…
  • well done on such great work! You can really see the difference in your face! I'm also using my next wedding dress fitting as my goal - the dressmaker has told me I can lose/gain whatever I want until December but after that I need to stop! Keep up the good work!
  • I am in! I have my first wedding dress fitting 6 weeks from today so badly need the extra push in motivation SW: 155lbs CW: 146.5lbs GW: 140lbs (by end of July) Weigh in Dates: 7/1 : 146.5lbs 7/8 7/15 7/22 7/28 End of Month Breakfast: Nespresso coffee with stevia sweetener and a poached egg (takes 40 seconds in the…
  • This is encouraging for me so thank you for posting! I initially went from 155 to 145lbs but for the last 2 months I have been hanging in around 144 - 146lbs despite going to the gym lots, watching what I eat, etc. Seeing very little movement on the scales is soooo discouraging even though the jeans are a little looser. I…
  • i wondered about that...735 cals for a body attack class seems like a huge amount! Perhaps the best thing to do is to slightly underestimate this amount when clocking calories..
  • I LOVE the Les Mills classes! I go to CXWorx twice a week and just tried Body Attack yesterday so I think that's a new one to my list.. The Les Mills site has an indication of calories burned here (http://w3.lesmills.com/global/en/fitness-classes/group-fitness/) so I use that as a guideline for putting my workouts into…
  • I'm 5'4 and currently hovering between 144 - 146lbs for a while now.... my goal weight is 135, however despite the very slow weight loss I have gone down a jeans size so that's something at least... I'm starting to realise that the scales is not the only indicator of progress and I need to stop focusing on what numbers it…
  • I'm also using my wedding next year as my motivation. I want to lose about 20lbs - it's not a huge amount (well compared to some people's goals) but it's still proving very difficult! I really want to look AMAZING in my wedding dress next year. Have been going to the gym 3 - 4 times/week for the last few weeks but the…
  • I think having a deadline is a great idea... I got engaged at Christmas and hope to go wedding dress shopping over Easter break. My deadline for 27 March is to lose 20lbs.... Have a date, rather than a number of lbs is working for me so far!
  • my favourite Saturday/Sunday brunch is a plain omlette folded up like a crepe pancake with goats cheese and spinach (and bacon too!) as the filling. Very tasty and incredibly filling. I'm gluten/dairy free, but apparently goats cheese is ok (or I'm willing to believe this anyway!) I've ditched the coffee for jasmine green…
  • I'm in for this... I need the motivation and great to know that there are others trying to achieve the same as me... CW: 152lbs Calories per day: 1200 Height: 5'4 GOAL: 132lbs Despite a reasonable amount of regular exercise (twice/week) I've been finding it really difficult to shift the lbs... but need to realistic about…
