Morning Hun,

Ye If your not 100% there is no point your just heading for a fail aren’t you.

Well today I weigjed showing 16.5 1/2 so Iv lost 1 3/4 from yesterday morning which is amazing. I’m now 1/2 off fridays weighing so should see a good loss this month. I came on this morning so I think that helped lol. Aim for this week now is to get minmim of another 2 1/2 pound off which will put me at 15.3 . If I get another 3 1/2 il be at my 2 1/2 stone which would so amazing . Dunno I have 4 days 3 1/2 is a lot isn’t it haha

Yay well done you. I so wish I could lose 1 3/4 in a day. I'm praying for 1lb in the morning, lol.

It's strange how you get bloated when you're due on, I'm the first couple of days. Strange how it effects people differently isn't it.
3 1/2 might be a little ambitious but hey, you know you can do it because you've done it before, so aim high and see how you do :) It's just a case of being super good for the rest of the week.
 
I have to say Calorie counting has changed the fitness game for me. I grew up eating very healthy and I do indulge every now and then but a lot of people don't see the simplicity behind it all. if you burn more calories then you consume in a day you will loose weight/ fat! I do Intermittent fasting while I continue to eat healthy (80/20 rule forever) and I have never been happier! I have a body to die for and I can still enjoymyself while having a target and reaching my goals! I use MyFitnessPal and its so easy to loose weight just using this app! I love math and numbers and this quantifies everything just the way I need so that I can loose the weight and keep it off for good! I've lost over 50 lbs from my max weight and counting calories have saved my life.
 
Hi sounds interesting , are you good during the week then bad at weekends then? How many cals do u have in the week? Do u count at weekend?
 
Haha would be amazing if i did. I think I can deffo get to 15.2 by next week anyway and that’s my 2 1/2 . I reckon goin to end up at 15.12 that’s 7lb loss so need to loose another 1 this week then if I loose 2 for the following 3 weeks. This is worse case so il be 3lb off

Oh I Ment 16.2 , Just looked i wrote the wrong number haha if only eh. Il be happy to get my 15s as I was basically nearly in 19s

Haha I knew what you meant. If you were to get within 3lbs of your target by your holiday that would be fab, you've done so well. I reckon you'll do it :)
To go from 19s to 15s is such an achievement and I'm sure how well you're doing you'll be out of the 15's and into the 14's quickly.
 
Ye I’m not fussed about 3-4lb it’s basically a weeks weighing im short off . Deffo gettin back on it when I’m back really looking forward to rest of year weight wise. Aim is to get my gains gone by end of Aug and carry on my journey. Il prob do what I do now let me Hair down abit at weekends and be super good all week. I think by doin this ur loosing but still living

My plan will be pretty much the same as yours. I have loads of weekends planned between September and Christmas, infact I only have 1 weekend free!! But I will aim to be super good in the week. I get back from holiday on Bank holiday Monday, so hoping to get rid of any gain by mid September and then hopefully do another stone or so by Christmas.
Can you imagine how fab we'll feel by Christmas :)

Ye i litrely Cnt wait. Iv got sept- Dec to loose 2 stone and now Iv got 3 I know I can do it. I wonder what size il be ooo it’s exciting
Click to expand...

I know you can do it. I reckon you'll be atleast one dress size smaller by Christmas. It's strange because even though I've lost over 2 stone, I've only dropped 1 dress size. Although all my clothes are a size 14 and they do feel a bit lose, so I reckon I could maybe get away with a 12 soon :)
 
Ye u will soon be in 12. See I was in 20s and the jeans used to roll over you know when get tight. Same with tops they were all 20s

I can now get into 16 trousers and most of my size 16 tops. The trousers are tight and Iv got a huge roll lol so I Cnt wear all
My 16 tops yet as some are abit snug which would look fine if I didn’t have the roll. All
The tops looks fine with skirts and loose jeans it’s just the tight jeans.

On holiday I tend to live in the 3/4 bottoms and most of them are elastic waist aren’t they. They are just comfy and nice and cool so all my tops will look fine with them. Il get more fitted stuff to wear at night but in the day not to fussed I always end up covered in sun cream anyway haha

I think I was probably the top end of a size 16 before I started my diet and that's why I'm still in mainly size 14's. Plus my boobs don't help in tops. I'm sure I'd be a size 12 now if it wasn't for them, lol.

I've brought loads of little play suits for my holiday, they are all quite elasticated, so I should be ok if I gain. We don't really go anywhere posh in the evening, so will just wear the same as in the day and maybe take a couple of dressier dresses. Will have to see. I've brought loads of clothes but not got a clue what I'm taking yet, lol.

Yum your breakfast sounds lovely and I bet it was well worth 400 :) It will still give you loads of calories for your dinner later.
 
I still need to get my clothes think will get Olivia’s this weekend. I really wanted to wait as long as I could but then part of me wants to get them so can see what money left for the month.


It was gorg, ye still got 900 😀
