2014 weight loss challenge

[upndown]

You sound very focused! Definitely a good idea to break it into smaller goals as I think it can be a bit overwhelming otherwise! You must be so proud of yourself you are doing great

Great advice but may I suggest that u think that way about urself - be kinder to u lol!!!

Don't knock urself again - it's a loss and there's always hope whilst we're still posting - good idea to put the scales away till end of Oct - wish I cd - they do my head in!! There's quite a few weeks to go b4 the 2015 challenge starts!

Yeah if could just lose 3lb a week between now and Xmas I will smash my target by the end of the year lol! Scales are so annoying but I'm not quite as attached to mine now so hopefully not weighing for a while will be quite straight forward!

Yeah if only we cd have a steady 3lb a week loss eh? But an average of a pound a week is realistic I think and if I cd do that I'd be on top of the world!

Same here! Would be delighted to lose a stone by Xmas,I think that works out at just over a pound a week,so still realistic hopefully!

Yes a stone wd be a lovely Christmas pressie - then I'll probably put a load on and have to start all over again!,

Lol that's always the way! The past few years I haven't been tooooo bad at Christmas so hopefully I can rein it in this year! Whenever I have a bad few weeks and then weigh myself and have a big gain I tell myself that most of it will drop off quickly cos it's not a 'true' gain.that used to be true and j always dropped three or four pounds when I started eating better but these days my body clings on to every extra pound and its a nightmare to get off!

 

[upndown]

Same here - my holiday weight is hanging around but then again I've not done much to try to lose it! But I'm on my 4th day of the diet restart - so fingers crossed! How's ur week going? X

Huhum .... well I didn't make day 4 - just got to day 3.67 then choc fest happened. So sts for me this week but feel lucky to have no gain. I WILL GET THERE but don't know when! Feel sick when 2 months ago I was only 5lbs away from target!

Just read that weebuns is now in the 10s having lost 6 stones - makes me want to try the 5:2 diet again - she always says that she can manage it cos she knows she can get thro her fast days cos she can eat normally the following day (on the 1500 calories allowed) she makes it sound easy but we all know it isn't!! Well done to her.

hope ur juicing regime works!!

Did you enjoy the chocolate at least?

Weebuns is great,she's eating really healthy food,I think down the line I will do it again,I was eating quite badly on the normal days which probably wasn't doing me any favours!

Yes the choc was fab but wish it tasted yuck lol!

Had a weekend totally off diet and my Sunday run was cut short when I got stung on my face by a bee!

Need to try really hard to stay on track this week. Determined to shift the holiday weight and carry on losing.

How is everyone else? Seems very quiet on here.

Still struggling here. Not helped by a swollen and painful neck, lack of voice and general aches and pains on top so been eating a LOT of ice cream to soothe it.
