Well I bit the bullet and went back to my class last week first weigh in tonight and 5 pounds off so happy as that's my back to what I was before I stopped class in July! Sticking to it so I loose a few more pounds before Xmas and I can truly relax on Xmas day xx

Thanks Mrs wade I was well chuffed when I stepped on the scales and the class manager told me how well id done, gave me a boost to continue xx

I got it!!!! I got my 1.5st Award after a massive 4.5lb loss this week!!

Well done this week everyone xxx

Really pleased, I've weighed myself this morning and since Monday 23rd Nov (just over a week) I've lost 4lbs.....

Need another half a stone off by May 7th which is my first dress fitting and I'll be happy x

Well done ladies xx

Mrs Hurley, a nice lunch is tuna on toast. 2 pieces of wholemeal, 1tin of tuna. You can add tomatoes or onion or both :)

Or a chunky soup followed up up with a sweet treat

Another 2 pounds off this week xx

Thanks Mrs wade xx

So my weight loss plan has gone to pot. Being really good in the day but not been getting to the gym after work and eating some naughty things, so I am at the same weight as I started.
I don't seem to have the motivation. Maybe dress shopping in a few weeks will wake me up.

Well done Sophie x

Thank you xx

I need to stop eating cr@p. That's all I've done all weekend. Feel so fat and can tell I've put weight on.

Cannot wait for January as I think that will give me the shove I need to lose some weight for May for first dress fitting

I'm looking into the local 51immingW0r1d group, am seriously considering joining, I really want to drop a couple of sizes for 2017 wedding, but more than that I need to give my diet a major healthy overall. I used to be fairly good (moderated sweet intake and portion sizes, snacking on veg & fruit etc) but have slowly descended into a very poor diet of cakes and takeaways since my mum passed away this year. Not good, esp with diabetes in the family :/ my friend has been with SW and reached her target weight before Christmas, really recommends it.

Think we all need some motivation, I'm trying to be better and will start properly on Monday, back to work so easier routine wise.
Maybe we should all do a weigh in together on a Monday?

I weighed myself yesterday to see what damage had been done - the scales showed a gain of 4lbs!!!! Weighed myself again this morning though and it's down to 3lbs, so not so bad and I suppose it won't take long to get back off again.

Been doing my dvd in the lead up to Christmas and did it again today, so come New Year it should be much easier to get back into the swing of things. Going to be as healthy as poss these next 3 days then might have a treat NYE (and some alcohol of course), but then back on it with a vengeance! Had an omelette for breakfast today before doing my dvd and planning chicken breasts stuffed with spinach, red onion and passata with sweet potato fries and lots of vegetables for dinner tonight.

I've gained about a stone in 5 months after a car accident Jen and I'm trying to get back into my running.. I was doing 10 milers and lost 1/2 a stone within two weeks of starting the longer distances before the crash! I struggle to get up to 5k because of back and hip pain now so someone reccommended on here j1ll1an m1chaels 30 day shred ... It's a dvd in 3 levels so you do each level for 10 days- it only takes 20 minutes per day so good on time and you burn 3.267 calories x how many lbs you weigh divided by three so works out at 177 for me - only 100 less than doing a 5k run but it also helps your strength and sculpt your muscle tone. I Did a 5k run then day 4 yesterday - my muscles are screaming but I felt a lot of my form had returned for running by simply increasing my strength again as resting up for 5 months has depleted all my muscles.

Also read last night that you need a calorie deficit of 3500kcal every week to loose 1 lb which I was surprised at so you need to save about 500kcal per day either by eating well or exercise - that's where I've been going wrong!!!

Oh :( I'm only day 5 as I started Sunday - could have sworn I've done that DVD more than 4 times! Wishful thinking

I put on a pound yesterday then dropped 3 (2 from what I started) so hopefully you'll do the same :)

I'm being very strict with my food too. Only eating proper meals that I've preplanned out so I know the calorie and nutrition intake.

It's so hard eveything I see I want to scoff :( even just one like chocolate ands fruit sweets and digestives arghh where has my will power gone .. So far I've not succumbed but I dunno why I'm bothering as were out drinking tonight and that's calorific

I've worked out that I can only have 4 drinks tonight if I want to be under my calorie intake by 500 kcal to keep on track as a fruity cider is apparently 210kcal a bottle :( I think vodka and lemonade and things are better to night do vodka cranberrys or something

I'm on Southern comfort lime and lemonade so pale ish....

Just said to OH, I'm not drinking stupid amounts and letting it spoil tomorrow!

I feel better having that walk today and really hope I keep at it.

Weighed in last night after binging on buffet food and I'm a pound less so I'm pleased....

OH showed me some core exercises yesterday so I'm going to try them daily as they are quick to do in a morning before work etc....

I need to keep at it and tone up.

Well done em :)

Did you say you were starting your dvd Monday too? X

Yes Monday when OH goes back down and can't watch me lol

It's not that I'd be annoyed, I'm too conscious.... He's actually really encouraging x

Oh is just a perv*rt that's why he watches. Then takes the p*ss if I'm sweating or out of breath .. It annoys me because I'm at least twice as fit as he is so he has no right to mock
