Well I don't know if i'll be able to weigh myself every week for next few weeks but as of yesterday I'm 15st 2lbs which gives me a total weight loss so far of 13lbs. Just ordered 2 trial packs of some acai berry detox things that are supposed to really boost weight loss - going to give it a go while I can't exercise, see if it stops me from putting weight back on!!

Good luck with that! I just worked out my total weightloss so far and it's also 13lbs!
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
thanks! i decided i need to do something to try and stop me from putting this weight back on while i cant do any exercise. it looks really good, I'll have to let you all know if it works!!

Hi girls, I'm so disappointed this week! I gained 3lbs, but we did have our engagement party and 2 others, not to mention the HUGE cake made for us (black forest gateaux with chocolate fudge...eesh lol). So I'm starting again tomorrow at 13st 5lbs 1/4.
I'll set up a sheet so we can track our weight loss. I think weighing on a Sunday would work out as it's the end of a week. Although I don't suppose it matters too much as long as we get it.

Hi girls and boy (sorry honest John, forgot you were on there :O )
I've made a list but it's not really complete, I imagine it'll take a couple of weeks for me to get into the swing of updating it!

Typical, I spent ages making that look like a table and when I clicked save it moved it all! LOL
CommentAuthorClaire
It still makes sense! Thanks for trying to make it look nice and neat :) it's good to see how everyone else is doing too! And 3lbs on isn't that bad at all considering all the parties and the big cake!
Sara I think I may give those acai berry supplmenets a try. I just looked them up and the reviews are good, saying they not only help with weightloss but also tiredness (something I suffer from a lot!), complexion and general 'feeling goodness'. Fingers crossed they work! Although even if they just make me feel better in myself and don't help me lose weight I'd still be happy!

weighed myself this weekend and down to 11st 8lbs still a long way to go but on the right track x
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
Claire have you ordered them yet? If not, go on to womens health because they've got a promotional code that you can input at the checkout and it reduces the P&P for the trial packs! :o)
CommentAuthormjb87
I'm not 12st2 :-) xx
CommentAuthorExcited_bride_to_be
Okay, so I weighed myself today, I'm 8st 8lbs. I could have cried. I'm only 5ft 2in, I knew I'd put weight on recently, but I didn't think it was that bad. Major reality check. My goal is to lose 4lbs by the end of this month and get down to my ideal BMI by the wedding which is 7st 11lbs. Does this sound reasonable?
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
less than a stone sounds good, I shall add you all to the list (and correct any mistakes!) as soon as I can :) x
Well done all!
CommentAuthorClaire
Already ordered them Sara - off healthspan who have free p&p anyway! But thank you :-)
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
haha, we'll have to see how it goes for both of us! :o)

Having said that, our scales have gone a bit dodgy (at one point this morning it said I was 6 stone!!), so we have bought some new ones and I am going to weigh myself on those, so it could bring bad news :/
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
Nice one girls :) x
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
Well I've had to weigh today as I'm away for the weekend....my scales said 13st this morning, then 13st 3 half hour later and the nurses scales at the docs said 12st 11lbs! If hers are right I've lost my first stone! My friend thinks I should be listening to my scales though :( I don't know what to listen to mun! ARGH! On a brighter note we're off to Liverpool to see our friend and then to see Roger Waters tomorrow night in Manchester! Funnnnn....although will involve a meal in our favourite Chinese restaurant in the world!!!!! mmmmmmm xx
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
Well I'd believe the doctors scales as they're calibrated regularly! :o) I'm feeling pretty rubbish today, think I've got a bug or something but on the plus side I got weighed this morning and have lost another 2lbs! Not bad to say I've hardly been walking and doing no exercise for last 2 weeks (since my foot operation). The scales are now showing 1lb less than they did when I had my op done so I'm well pleased :o) - I miraculously seemed to gain 4lbs overnight when I had my op, I'm putting it down to the ridiculous amount of bandages I'm wearing! lol
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
Sounds like it to me, bandages are heavy all together, Well done! x
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
thanks! how's yours going? I think I may have ruined it this weekend, I've had a 3 course italian meal and an Indian takeaway, oops!
CommentAuthorClaire
I def agree with just trusting the scales at the docs. I was right about my scales at home being wrong - I'm actually now 14st 9lbs according to docs on friday. Where as my home scales had said I was 14st 8lbs a couple of weeks before, and I seriously tried hard with the dieting between! Needless to say, my home scales got filed under "B" for bin lol....
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
LOL Claire, good choice, I think I will deduct the difference and be 4lbs less when I weigh on my scales. I will be weighing tomorrow but I did have a sneaky peak on Friday and I've stayed he same so far which isn't too bad, we went to Liverphool last week and ate out a lot, including a Thai Red Curry in Manchester, which was gorgeous but I bet was full of calories!!! x
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
No change for me ladies and I'd rather no change than having put on!
So that's a stone since I started losing weight.
Current Weight: 12st 11lbs
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
Me too, no change this week - which actually is a good thing since I've pigged out on naughties all week! lol So total loss so far 1st 1lb Current weight 15st
CommentAuthorClaire
No change for me either, and I have Had a few really bad food days! So I'm still 14st 9lbs. But better than putting any on!
I've worked out if I go on the wii in just underwear and say my clothes weigh 2lbs it matches the scales at the doctors! So that's what I'm doing from now on!
Hope it's going well this week :-)
CommentAuthorMrsSaraParry!
I'm am SO not impressed! Don't know whats happened but the other day I was 15st and then went on the day after and was 15st 2lbs, now I'm 15st 3lbs! What?! How can that happen overnight? I'm really fed up :o(
CommentAuthorClaire
Could be water retention.... especially if you're due or on your period! Sometimes makes me a few pounds heavier, then after I'm back to normal! Or if you've been doing any exercise, that can make you weigh more because muscle is heavier than fat
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
Sorry ladies and gent, been away for a while, we went to watch The Wall in Manchester, then went to Download in Donnington, came back and I got labyrinthitis, will be back with you soon. PS I doubt labyrinthitis was caused by too much music lol x
CommentAuthorEmmaLouise
Ok MONTHS after my last post and my weight is around the same!!! I have found a fantastic website which is free and allows you to track your food and your exercise, it has searchable foods or you can add your own. I shall post it to my wall x
