Week 6 - Weigh in

[emsie85]

Hi everyone,

So I'm 6 weeks in, can't believe it! I remember when I was wishing to be 6 weeks in!

I've lost 18 3/4 lbs (although thats on the CDC's scales, mine are 2lb lower!)

So I'm finally back in the 11's which is great, spent the whole of last year trying and failing to get back in the 11's.


Here's to the next 6 weeks!

Ahh lilly my wk 7 weigh in is tomoro also, have cheated and weighed myself this mornin a poxy 1lb loss. What is the point??? Im thinkin mayb its due to excercise? Im the same..... Have a 2 yr old son so sometimes i find myself takin over to feed him (he can do it perfectly well himself!) just so i can have a mouthful or 2.... Mayb its the 7 week curse!!! What r ur stats? Goal? Xxx

I tell myself it's tiny and doesn't count lol... I do have sneaky mid week peaks at the scales in hope it will kick me into gear , but it hasn't done so this week! Must be the dreaded 7week curse! At least 1lb off is not a gain, wk three I gained 2lbs (daughters first birthday party I made cake..dun dun dun)

My stats are start date 24/4/12 start weight 18.6 current weight 16.11 short term goal 13-13.5 for a friends wedding in October long term goal 10st hopefully by December...or is that asking a bit much lol , 23lbs is not to ad in 6 weeks!

How about you?? X

 

[littlemumma]

Your doin well too can u notice a diff??? I bet u can,
23.04 i was 15st 6
Today i am 13st 8.5
My goal is 11st 7 anything below is a miracle
But tbh i think il settle for 13st this way and perhaps try another way for the last stone and a half.... Just wana wake up tomoro atleast down to 13 st 6, w'i is at 9.30 x

hello littlemumma & lillybud
well done on your losses!!
I'm also on SS... although you may see from the weekly weigh-in's in my signature that I haven't had massive losses every week. I started with the best intentions but I've had (quite) a few drinks a couple of weekends and a couple of unavoidable meals and then on the jubilee weekend I went off track (hence week 5 no weigh-in). But I had a great time! I'm happy with the average over the 6 weeks, trying to not be disappointed knowing I could have done better.
I find keeping myself busy helps, and reading this forum. I have a few things coming up (wedding, etc) so I know that will delay the goal a little. Just trying to get straight back on track after anything, for damage limitation.
I can see the difference in myself a bit, my clothes fit soo much better now. Can you both see the difference in yourselves?

How did todays weigh in go littlemumma?

Em

 

[littlemumma]

Yes im tryinh not to beat myself up as i know i couldv been stricter!! Iv also had a few nights out with lots of alcohol and a bbq here and there.... So overall not too awful!!!
Well, i lost 3lbs which il take!! Im 1lb off lising 2 stone so all i need to pull next week is a pound and iv done 2st in 8 weeksx how about u x

 

[emsie85]

Well done that's great! Such a good total.

Don't think Ill make the 2 stone mark by week 8 but fingers crossed I can by week 9...

 

[Lillybud]

Hey ladies had my weigh in this evening lost 5lbs not entirely sure how?!? I too have a couple events coming up to but plan to get straight back on the diet a few weeks back I had a day off which turned into a week off and it's showed on the scales!! I got a few of the bars today have any of you tried them before? Xx

 

[littlemumma]

U can do it emsie! 2stone in 9 weeks is s bloody good loss!!! My 2 year old weighs 2st 3lbs and to think iv nearly lost the equivilant of him kinda feels amazing lol! Hes really heavy!!! X

 

[littlemumma]

Well done lily thats brilliant!!! Wohoooo!!!
I only have thr orange bars (lush!) and the cranberry! The toffee is also nice, the mint was ok.... Havent tried the peanut tho! I prefer the chewy texture opposed to the crunchy!! X

 

[emsie85]

I haven't tried the bars yet... are they good? I quite like making the shakes or soups big to fill me up and wasn't sure how much the bars would fill me up?

well done with the 5lbs loss lillybud thats brilliant!!

I remember at ww once they got us to pick up a half stone and a stone ball, really showed how much was lost, I'll have to go pick up my friends baby!!

 

[Lillybud]

Thanks you! I suppose when I think about my little girl weighs about 1st 7lbs...it is quite a lot to be carrying around! I had the peanut bar today....hmmm not what I expected wasn't a snickers bar! Lol orange bar is lovely and they both filled me up, you have to av them with a glass of water or tea!

 

[emsie85]

yeah I think I'll give the bars a try then... no weigh in this week as CDC is on hol so will get them next week
