    Me Me ME! I'd like to lose 6lbs by the time our engagement party comes round on 1st May 2011. I want to lose 3st before our wedding. I'm 5ft 4 and a whopping 13st 3lbs (a lot for my height) but I'm rather muscular as well so find it really hard to lose inches :( but I am keeping my calories under what I need for a day, but I'm saving my exercise to start next week after having lost about 4lbs since we got engaged 2 weeks ago. So yes count me in! 6lbs loss by 30th April please! I shall weigh later and post my starting weight. :) x

    Sarisbob, I did Cambridge and it has worked wonders for me. Once you get to a certain point in your weight loss you then reintroduce foods for a certain length of time before moving up the plans so that is the re education. I cant exercise at all and have very limited mobility but it worked for me as it gave me a big kick start and a huge boost as I then knew I could do it. I have a stone left to lose but will do that by eating the right things however my lovely h2b is a feeder and knows my weaknesses. However, as he has already points out he has become a complete gym bunny so more or less eats what he likes and is a very bad influence on me!!!

    i stick to the 1200 cal & 20g fat rules and do my weights to get rid of the bingo wings lol 5 days a week i always have two days where i can have a treat or a nice meal rather then boiled rice every night. i did it before and still went from 15 stone down to under 9 stone in 10 months so dont think a couple of treats will hurt your diet to much as long as its not everyday.
    i couldnt go without mon-fri without the promise of a bit of choccy on the weekend and a pizza yummy x

    Ah ladies don't lose heart, I've only lost a 1lb a week since we got engaged but it is something!!! The idea is to allow yourself days where you're a bit naughty it's no good being all slim for your wedding then going out and starting to eat again and ballooning xxx

    Count me in too, must have missed this thread.

    5ft 4"
    Start 185lbs
    would like to loose 14lb

    (have lost 13lbs in last 4 weeks, so to do that again would be great)

    I've halved my portion size and drink about 2 litres of water a day. I do zumba twice a week and have 2 personal training sessions a week - the rest of the time I'm running around after 4 kids!

    Good luck girls x

    time for the weigh in.

    I have lost 2lbs this week. Not quite what I wanted but I know why.

    pluses - have only cheated once and have kept up the excercise and apart from the cheat day have kept to the diet

    minuses - cheat day involved a calzone pizza and half a tub of ben and jerry's on a trip to Brighton with my friend. Not knowing we would be getting lunch I had eaten some toast not long before we left. As we were out buying her outfit for her mums funeral I didn't think I could say no when she wanted a pizza. I put on 3lb that day.

    This week I will drink more water, keep up the excercise, keep up with the diet but will not go too crazy on my hen party (sat) there is a meal involved but I will try and make wiser choices (but there will be some kind of pudding involved I am sure. It is my hen after all lol)

    How did everyone else do?

    :( cries, i put on a lb this week and am up to 12.1, but in saying that i did only just weigh myself, rather than first thing , and my TOM is due, so hopefully i have technically lost or stayed the same , and its just extra fluid.

    so im now back up at 12.1,
    im thinking of eating a box of raisin wheats to flush out my insides, then have a day of detox where i just have smoothies/juices or soups , all easy on the digestion and then start again on my diet.

    i think i need to get some new scales, im using my mum and dads which i have always used but im not sure they are that accurate as they measured my bmi and it said i was 33.5% body fat, late week i was 45!!! can i really lose that much body fat in a week?? i dont have a great deal to lose unless its turning into muscle ?? but then surely i would put on weight?! so confused...

    Well ladies, I bought new scales which show weight, fat percentage, water percentage, bone mass and bmi. I had weighed on my friends scales about 6 - 8 weeks ago and I'd been 13st 11lbs, I nearly had a heart attack, my wii fit said 13st 5! So I didn't weight for a while used my wii fit and I was 13st 3 and went down to 13st. So there's the background, on Monday I pick up my scales and realise 1. That my friends scales were correct and 2. that I had actually lost 6lbs anyway so it wasn't so bad. Soooo on Monday this week I was 13st 5lbs. Today I am 13st 2 1/4 lbs. Yay! I think I can forgive myself for gaining 1lb last week.
    So this is as is for me:
    Weight 13st 2 1/4lbs
    Fat % 36% (about 10% over average I think)
    Water 46.7%
    Bone Mass 6.6%
    BMI 31.8
