Thank you I am really amazed I set my target as I did because 1.5 is a good loss for me
I have two more weighins so can I put it up by 4lb that will mean I have a pound a week to lose - mind you it might not sound much but these big losses have to slow soon

Hxx

@Sazmajig 3.2 off for me, dead chuffed, I like these new scales! Well done to everyone on their losses and if you had a small gain, so what, get back on it! Did you enjoy it?

Just ate 8 cadbury chocolate biscuits after a 7 mile walk, this will be followed by two pints of beer following an hours circuit training, fingers crossed, they will cancel each other out
Then its back to the healthy eating malarky, good luck everyone for the weekend and following week, this chart is looking brill, super work Sarah.

Hi 1lb of for me slow and steady but had kfc to on Sunday I was looking forward to a slice of homemade chesse cake at a girly lunch but saved my figure it was disgusting lol

Well done everyone come on summer

 

[M Louise H]

I fancy doing a boost this week, I think because im due on, i wanna still have a good loss so I am not having low losses as im itching to get big losses for summer.

So I've decided to do today - saturday to do extra easy with a increase of fish and sunday through to Tuesday I will be doing red days just to ease me into it as i've never doing red days before but i think my potatoes, rice and pasta are bloating me out and slowing me down and it might give my body a quick kick something new, you know.
My weigh in is on wednesday.

Do any of you have good meals for red days? First time doing it but i've seen people have really good results on red days.

I tend to stick to grilled meat or fish and salad with a baked potato as an HEB on red days.

 

[Sexyshell135]

Another 1lb for me

 

[hopes12]

3lb for me this week, last weeks gain gone!

 

[Neveragain]

Thanks @M Louise H I have found a few recipes to keep me going, I'm planning not having any potatoes, rice and pasta at all, not even putting it in my syns or healthy extra, i feels it defeats what im trying to find out - to see if those things are slowing my weight loss. lots of chili with gem lettuce, omelettes, chicken salads, quiches and eggs, bacon and sausages etc

Have you noticed a good loss from doing red days?

 

[Lucylu79]

@Neveragain i like to do a cottage pie but replace topping with swede and carrot mash.
Must admit when it comes to cutting out carbs I tend to stick to salads or a nice roast with loads of veg so I know where I am!

 

[Lucylu79]

I feel really bloated of late so I'm going to try to cut out carbs from mon until weigh in, somethings getting in the way for sure!

Maybe try more water too ( says me who always says I will but I don't ) it might help x

Definitely have better losses on Red days, simply because I don't eat as much as when I'm loading up on carbs!!!! I thought of you as I was munching my favourite Red day lunch today - mackerel in tomato sauce with lettuce, grated carrot and rocket mixed in on 2 Ryvitas followed by fruit and yoghurt and a Hi-Fi bar. Always fills me up that one!

Have you tried cauliflower rice or courgette spaghetti?

Could be too much fibre, have a look at FODMAP it explains which healthy foods can cause bloating - it's not always the fault of the demon carbs

 

[Jhsax]

1lb off for me (I think)

I maintained this week.
