Hi and welcome !

Have you got some clothes that you want to take on holiday but are a bit tight? You could do exercise to lose some inches.
Some people swear by the 30 day shred DVD which is an intense programme. I've not done it myself I'm too old and creaky I do Zumba which is fun.

You should meet your target over the next few weeks good luck!

Hi all, I'm new.

I'm 13st 2lbs and have my weigh in tonight. I don't feel hopeful, have just finished off the kids dinner and ate 2 boxes of smarties which of course I bought a 4 pack of for the kids. :cry:

Just a question to the people losing 4/5 lbs per week. How ? Lol the most I've lost in a week is 3lbs but its always mostly 2lbs I mean I'm over the moon with that because 2lbs is my target each week but when I see others losing all this I'm thinking what am I doing.
Do you use a lot of weeklies? I'm guessing not. I think that might be my problem I use my weeklies.

I use to use all my weeklies and never lost. I dont use my weeklies and still don't loose. Very frustrating and I go to gym 3-4 times a week.

 

[Chazhavnfun]

Have you taken measurment. You might notice a difference that way. X

Hi Chazhavnfun,

Im am useless at dieting always have been, tried slimming world back in march and because there were no portion sizes to stick to i was eating loads and was gutted when id lost only 1.5 pounds i felt like i tried so hard! anyway thought i would join weightwatchers and tbh i havnt eaven been counting my points because when i used to do it i got obsessed so all i have done is cut down portion sizes and eating weighwatchers bread, meals and just making sure i eat well and i know in my head whats is bad point so stay on track. for example my daily meals would be:

Breakfast: shreddies with semi skimmed milk
Lunch: ww bread with 3 slices of ham and low fat spread no sauces! bannana and a ww equivilant chocolate bar or be good for you crisps(alternate the two daily so i dont crave)
Tea: either a chicken breast with jacket pot and beans, ww meal , fish e.c.t but cutting the portions by half!!

this week i have been out for tea 3 times (harvester) and had a birthday takeaway being chinese which is my fave i just ordered satay sticks and had some rice (no prwan crackers, pork/chicken balls lol just watched everyone else)

I have also brought a kettlebell and use the videos on you tube to exercise to these are brilliant for loosing weight and toning at the same time!

They say 2lb a week is a good loss i bet you next week i will get weighed and only loose 1 lbs! i have literally cut down to eating 1/3rd of what i used to. I have completly cut out sugar aswell(on my cereals in my tea e.c.t) so that might be a thing to look at.

I would stay away from doing alot of exercise because the fat is turning into muscle and muscle is heavier then fat! i do the kettlebell twice a week and thats enough for me to tone.

What are you eating daily?

Thanks

Danielle

I've taken measurement and we are talking about an inch 3 inch loss. I started in sep and have only lost a stone ?. Which most people loss in a month. Not good.

 

[StarCrossed]

I'm floating around the 13 stone 1 to 3 mark at the moment. The last two weeks I've STS so I'm hoping to either hit 13 or into the 12s pretty soon.

ive always been a big loser. im able to drop 4-5lbs when im good. and i usually use all my weeklies. my problem is i gain big too. if ive had a bad week or night out etc. i can can 3-6lbs in one week and thats so disheartening. i no it will come back off but at that moment it sucks x

 

[Marv]

Really would love to be in the 12's (so long since ive been there) 7.5 to go.

 

[Chazhavnfun]

I can't ever imagine being in the 12st. I really cannot remember ever being that small. Maybe high school but I never really weighed myself at all untill the last couple years when I had my 4th child.
I'll I've heard my whole life is your tall though but I'm only 5ft 7 can I get to 12st do you think?
