Hi guys,

I lost 1.5lbs this week. I was a little disheartened because you would think someone of 19stone would lose more per week, but my consultant has asked me to fill out a food diary and says its important I think of it as a lifestyle change and not a quick fix.

I am really trying hard, eating my superfrees and increasing my walking. Starting to wonder whether its either that my body is so used to doing SW OR the fact I've had a Mirena Coil fitted recently and I've read that can make it harder to lose weight... I'm not entirely sure though because I researched it beforehand it wasn't listed as one of the side effects unlike the implant, pill and injection. Does anyone have any advice on this?

Sorry for lack of updates as well, I've been really busy at work!
Hope everyones doing well x

Thanks Roziee xxx

Your welcome

Ahhh...... I get it - the list is on the very first post, and Roziee updates it - cool (was a bit slow there for a moment!!)

Hehe that's it x

Well done Roziee 8lbs in 2 weeks is fabulousxx

Thank you!

Wow the thread is busy Hello everyone:wave_cry:.Well done to all the losses. Good luck to any thursday weighers . Have got a sw quiche cooking for lunch and having salad with it.

I'm not keen on the quiche... I really want to be but I'm not shame coz it's free and packs loads of sf food in it...

Going out for a walk now, run out of milk so off to the shops - sounds simple enough except I have to walk past Greggs to get there!!! HELP!! Give me the strength to walk past without buying a gazillion cakes!!! *fingers crossed* Here goes.......

Hi dory
I hope u managed to resist going into greggs. Next time go another route if u can.. Think about how wonderful you will feel once you reach your target weight and what an active life u will lead once you are slimmer.. A horrible fatty pasty will only taste good for 5 mins but you feel beautiful for much longer once you're slim. Thats how I stop myself from eating badly.

hi i lost 4 1/2 last week and i lost 1 1/2 this week so total lost 6lbs in two weeks x

Hiya,

I'll update your stats in just a sec...

6 lbs total loss is fantastic x

STS for me :sigh:

Hi broadbean..

Sorry to hear about your sts but this week u will lose for sure! Xx

Hey- 1,5 lbs is fantastic! That'll be 5.5 stones in a year if u continue which is jut under our yearly target so it's my bad going at all!

Don't be fooled by thinking that the heavier u are the more you'll lose... I weigh more than u but have had weeks where I only lose 1 lb.. Continue to do what you're doing and the weight will drop off. You don't want to lose too quickly otherwise u will end up with saggy skin!

I've update your stats on the first page.. If u an pm me when u want it updating please.. We're keeping it on one page now because it kept on getting lost within the thread....

Well tbh I didn't think I could resist going into Greggs, so I decided instead to make myself a massive plate of rice, veg and ham and I'm going to walk to the shops later when Greggs is shut - therefore no temptation

Oh and as well as that I decided I'm going to spring clean my daughters room, its her 7th birthday on 1st Feb and I'm buying her a new bed (sounds boring I know but she has so much stuff theres nothing more she could possibly want or need!) Its a gorgeous 4 poster bed with little pink voile curtains on so it looks like a princess bed, except she thinks shes getting a plain boring pine one cos mummy was a bit mean and told her the other one was out of stock naughty mummy!! Thing is her room is such a state atm that I have to completely gut it and repack her toys into boxes which will fit under bed (plus conveniently lose a few she's too old for!) but I've been doing it for an hour and had to stop cos I'm all sweaty and gross and I have work in about 15 mins! (Thank god I don't need to leave the house!!)

 

[MissSlinky2011]

Omg I'm feeling so sick today I'm now officially 8 weeks pregnant yay lol. I think today is so bad because I'm tired maybe but I've had to snack constantly to try and make the sickness go away and only sweet or salty things work! Plus point - I've smashed the water Target lol

Thanks Rozie, I appreciate it, saggy skin I do not want!

 

[MissSlinky2011]

She's right a man at my class weighed less than me to start with and lost a whopping 2 stone .5lbs in his first week!

I weighed 19 stone 5.5lbs to start my best week I lost 7.5 lbs but on average I lost 2 to 5lbs a week until I got pregnant

Everyone is different.

Try to drink at least 2 litres of water each day. I've been doing it for a few days now and I feel a bit healthier - don't know if that's just phycological but can't do any harm

 

[Roziee]

Hey everyone

I'm at home today...

Had to have stitches put in and they really hurt so couldn't go to work.. So you'll have to keep me company.
