Easter challange 2025

2lbs loss for me this week. Very happy with that. 2lbs left to go for the last two weeks. I'm not sure what next week will be like as I will be eating more carbs while walking. Probably if I'm back to normal diet by Wednesday, it won't affect the Saturday scales. Otherwise, there is still another week to shift the last pounds.

I'm not sure exactly what I got to this week lol because I gained and then I lost and confused myself 😆 I'm 9st 9lb now and that's 3lb off from last time I updated i think. That takes me to target. Still a little while left to lose more. 9st bang on is my ultimate goal but I'd go for 8st if I was able to.

Go you! You're such a powerhouse. I saw your old diaries that you typically do keto to lose weight, are you doing the same right now?
 
Another loss for me: had hoped for a bit more, but... we all know bodies are a bit weird! 1.4lbs off for me this week. It's been slower than I wanted, but overall, I'm happy with my losses. I'm also much more toned, and looking at the breakdown on my smart scales, I'm losing fat, but also gaining muscle, which will balance out those loses, and is the ultimate goal.

Another 2lb loss for me this week which is great as I wasn't sure what all this week's walking and diet change was going to do for my losses. It also completes my Easter challenge - hurrah!!

Looking ahead to my next goals - I have 10lbs left to reach my original stated goal weight. I'd like to get there by May 17th in 5 weeks. After that I'll push to lose an extra 14lbs to get to my ideal weight. That would put me in the middle of healthy BMI. That should be by July which gets me into that bikini for summer.

I was AWOL for a few weeks. Good to catch up on your solid progress.

A strange month - up 5lbs over 2 weeks for no reason - except perhaps inflammation when I had a haematoma and was on antibiotics - so finishing this challenge a net 25lbs - and I'm happy with that as 28lbs felt like a stretch when I started. For some reason, just realised I thought today was Tuesday - so came into check in on Monday. I will check in tomorrow and finalise then!

Thank you all for the short term focus.

So, I just saw that the website has been renewed for another year. Now with the Easter challenge ending this weekend, I was thinking about how helpful it's been and whether we should start a new challenge?

Perhaps one to the start of summer 21st June (9 weeks), or to school holidays 23rd July (14 weeks)?
 
ooo that's excellent news!

I think that's a really good idea - don't mind on timescales. I know there's a year challenge, but I find it better to focus when there's a more tangible goal date.
 
Last weigh in before Easter. Measuring two days early as I'll be away from my scales for the next week. I've lost 4lbs which puts me into healthy weight category. A great coda for the challenge and time for me to switch up the diet!

I am back.

Managed to lose another lbs despite walking a lot and eating salad almost every day. Well that is ok, 2 lbs in total on the challange is ok. I am happy as long as it is not a gain. My mum who hadn't seen me for a few months asked me if I have lost weight as to her I look slimmer - I suppose I have shaped better (haha) without losing the weight.

Thank you Bab for setting up the new challange. Lets hope I can lose the 15 lbs by summer.

Here is my last weigh in for the Easter challange

Well done on the Easter challenge, all! Adding my final weigh in results. Perhaps I was over ambitious... perhaps I wasn't as focused as I could have been. Either way, I'm still happy with the result. Will have a think and add myself to the new challenge
