FRIDAY GIRLS

[Gemstone]

Thanks Gemstone. (There used to be someone on our old Rushden & Diamonds FC forum called Gemstone. It wasn't you was it? )

I go on an all inclusive holiday Tuesday so it will be interesting to see how I manage while I'm away. Think I'll be ok on the food but it's the drink I'm worried about! Only had one spritzer in the past 4 weeks! . If I have any more than that I'll probably be legless. Ha ha.

No it wasn't me Bobbi - haven't heard of that forum at all. Have a good time on holiday and if you take a step back and come home with squatters (rogue pounds that creep back on) you can always serve eviction papers when you get home x

Thanks. I've never heard that expression before but very apt. Definitely don't want any squatters! lol

I lost 1 lb this week, pleased with that, I would have like more, the old saying "what only pound" but at least it's off!

 

[Gemstone]

Of course you can Bradgirl and welcome x

HI guys Id liek to join the friday weigh in group if thats ok/

 

[bradgirl]

Hi all, not done well this week, gained 1.5 lbs. I am back to where I was at the beginning of May. I think maybe I wasn't as good as I should have been out of 100% perhaps I was only 60%.
Any advise willing excepted.

 

[** Just Jools **]

2lbs off for this week.

Good luck everyone. xx

 

[Rendaridra]

Another three pounds down

 

[rosyro]

Congrats JustJools and Rendaridra


I am delighted to add myself to the "losing team". After weeks of being stuck on my lil plateau
I've finally managed to inch myself forwards. 2lbs down.


I don't think I've ever been so happy to lose such a small amount of weight. I was fully expecting to be up a pound or two because I haven't been eating as well as I could have been but I was exercising a lot though so that must be what did it. And now I have a set game-plan for the week ahead. Lots of lovely fat-melting exercise.

Gotta keep this going now.

Awesome JustJools, Rendaridra & Skinnieminnie!! :clap:

Heya Rosyro

Bradgirl dont be disheartened, not all weight gained when dieting is fat. I've had a few gains myself. Just draw a line under it & resolve to do better next week dont let it demotivate you. xx

2lbs down this week!

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Well done & welcome!

My maintaining isn't going so well.... I lost 2lbs this week!

 

[BigBurd]

Wow Ditzee ur pictures look amazing!! 10stone is a phenominal loss. You say ur maintaining isnt going so well, I would disagree because ur on top of it and losing the small gain u had... thats certainly where I hope to be in a year or so x

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Thanks Bigburd.... I was meaning my maintaining wasn't going so well as I've started losing again ;o) Never got as low as 154lbs have been maintaining at 165lbs for a year even tho I was trying to lose, so 3 weeks ago I figured that my body didn't want to shift anymore & since then I have lost weight! ;o) Crazy bloomin' bodies!

 

[bradgirl]

WOW - I have had read all the posts. You have certainly lost shed loads of weight between you all.
I have found the right page for inspiration:

Ditzeeblonde amazing to have lost 10stone, and maintaining for over a year, and continuing to loose weight, you are right our bodies are strange. Are you still following Atkins?

 

[bradgirl]

How have you all manage to keep going, as you have all lost lots of lbs? Which diets do you following?
I am doing Slimming World - Extra Easy, when I am being good, and sticking to plan - its does work?

I had a chinese last night - very very nice, not on plan, but had just played 18 holes of golf - so felt I had earned it.

This morning back on plan.

What have you planned for your Saturday food wise?

 

[BigBurd]

Hi Bradgirl, omg I could write an essay on what I have learned about myself and losing weight in the last 6 months. What keeps me going is the desire to change and never go back to where I was. I seek out inspiration every day to stay motivated and I plan everything! - what I eat, what my treat is going to be, what exercise I am going to do. After a bad day I draw a line and get straight back on plan and keep going, because I still have a long way to go. I try to evaluate what has worked and not worked at the end of each week and the plans change accordingly.

Dont think that anyone who has lost a lot found it any easier than you, every pound no matter how much you have to lose is a battle. But all over this forum you can gain insight into how to win yours Stick with it x
