One stone at a time target/challenge.

[emmaholl]

Hi all, feeling fat & can't wait to get back on it. From the 2nd of jan I promise I will plan & track my meals. I'm also going to TRY to drink more water & try to motivate myself to try the c25k challenge. I'm hoping Santa puts the Zumba game in my stocking as I'm looking forward to trying that for a bit of exercise.
So 14 weeks to Easter from the 2nd of jan. Hope it's not to ambitious to try for 2 stone by then. That's only 2lb a week I'm sure I can do that. Has anyone else got any targets or mini challenges? Xxxxkayxxx

I am trying to drink more water at the moment too. I've got a mini goal on the go which is to lose 20lbs in 12 weeks. I've lost 4lbs so far...

Feeling double fat! Not stopped eating since being off work wiv my thumb! I wud luv just dance 3 in my stocking to kick start the new year. I'm going to a breast cancer charity night on 17th march and wud luv to lose a stone and a half by then. I'm also gonna drink 2 litres of water a day and do some form of exercise at least 3 times a week x

Oh No! You must be fed up with your pot and everything. I got just dance 3 and have just started my first 'sweat' challenge - i've done two days equivalent of 30 mins of brisk walking! 5 more days to go on this challenge.

Hi ladies. Positive for today, 5 th day of knowing i have no wi on tues and stayed on track 100% except for 2 cocktail sausages and 2 mini cupcakes at a 40 th last night but huuuugggeee negative. Pic was posted on facebook of me at 40 th and although in total ive lost 2 stone 12 lb overall i did not look like i lost a single pound. Even my very diplomatic hubby said it was a bad angle shot. Devastated cos i felt great going out but feel like s**t now . Sorry for moan

Aww. I feel for you honey. Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago at work! Just keep thinking that you know you've lost the weight...

Only 2 more days at work for me!! then I am off until 3rd Jan - so lots of dancing and walking for me as I've signed up at WI last week to lose weight over xmas!!

Weigh in tomorrow - got a feeling i might STS.

Emms xx

Sounds lovely MM. What's a Brezel?

Have you found that your appetite has changed since you started WW?

I used to be starving after 2 slices of toast in a morning and now I manage on one. And little things, like when we go for a curry after Monday nite WI - i used to have two poppadums with pickles before my main course- and now I can only manage one. Seems like little things but makes me realize that I am changing slowly.

Oh and I got into a smaller pair of knickers yesterday and today!! I had a pack I had bought ages ago and they didn't fit - but they do now!!

Probably too much information...LOL.

Emms xx

Sorry haven't been on for a day, a Brezel is like a big Prezel made of bread, they are most delicious! I have certainly found my appitite has changed, i was watching Man v Food the other day and was amazed at the portions he was showing of the normal food not even the challenges and thought to myself, no way I could eat that now but I could have before.

Well done on the new knickers xx

That sounds totally doable, and i bet when you start again in January you'll be so psyched that it'öö keep you on track xx

Oh Goose, I hate those pictures too, but go find one of you at your biggest and you'll be able to see it I am sure, and you know how amazingly you have done, both the scales, your clothes and we say so! xx

Hey Gail - Love the new profile Pic - You're hair is gorgeous!!

I am slightly miffed off as I gained 2lbs tonight!! I have stuck to the plan just as I have the other weeks but my leader thinks its because i started exercising this week - so damn the just dance 3! I do feel water heavy today though as well.
Now I've got three weeks with no weigh in - but am determined to keep at it and start the C25k challenge. So two fingers up and weight gain for exercising - by the time I get back to class on 9th Jan I will be 9lbs lighter. So determined its untrue.

Rant over. Hope everyone has had a good Monday!!

Emms xx

 

[whoopsadolly]

Bless you, I know exactly how you feel. I stayed the same this week, although to me it looks like a 200 gram gain as my leader wrote the wrong weight on my card last week, I have no idea why because I have been on or under points all week Not gonna let it get me too down as I have ended the year lighter than I began it and that's a plus in my book. You have done a storming job so far and January is going to be good!! xx

Thanks Morgen i did what you told me and you are right there is a big diff in the pics from my heaviest weight to now so thanks a mill for making me feel better x x

Yay, really pleased it made you feel better, sometimes we look in the mirror and just see us as fat as we ever were, but we're not and we need reminding xx

Thanx Gwen, I'm not sure but will neva b happy wiv myself. Looks like we r all geared up to kick arse in the New Year. Bring it on!!

Love the hair too, wish i had the face to suit a short cut, did you find you used far too much soap when you washed it the first time lol? I did that the last time I had quite a lot of the length Love the new board name too! xx

 

[CarlyLanky140]

YAY!!! ur name changed Gail - u will now need to go change it on all challenges lol

Morgen - sorry about ur sts... but maybe u aren't eating enough... u shouldn't be under points darling xx

 

[Morgenmuffel]

Morgen - sorry about ur sts... but maybe u aren't eating enough... u shouldn't be under points darling xx
