Monday 24th September weigh in.

Have hopefully just recruited Frida from another thread
Hope she joins us!

If you recruit a newcomer to this thread, will you get added calories on your My Fitness Pal as a bonus?

I hope you're not on commission sba

Drat! Thought I was!!! - like the idea of bonus calories on MFP though!
No sign of Frida yet

Hello ladies- was overwhelmed by work this week so forgot to post once I had weighed myself.
As I do it in kilos even the slightest loss is reported, so I have lost 0.3 kilos this week, making a 4 lb loss since I discovered MFP. (They do the converting, so I am going with their totals.)
This is pretty much down to my target weight of 58 kilos, but I realy really want to keep it stable and not have to worry about the eternal yoyoing and putting on and then losing the same few pounds over and over again, so that is my goal- to be the same at Christmas.
Obviously this means I won't be contributing enormously to your intended fabulous cumulative weight loss, but your numerous endeavours and reports do keep me ( along with MFP) on track . For which, huge thanks !!!

grannyK to keep you on the straight and narrow is all we need, keep it up

I'm still having great success with the "alternate fasting diet" that has been mentioned by several of us before. Although not doing alternate days - I'm doing 2 fasting days out of 7. Find it much easier than I had expected. DH is doing it too - it was originally his idea as he needs to loose about 4 stone and thought that he would find this better than a traditional diet. I've lost 8 pounds in five weeks and already feel much better for it. I'm now a few pounds under my target weight so would be happy to stick with this but worried that if I stop then DH will stop too and we'll both put it on again.

yoga it seems suited to you. That just over 1.5 lb a week and is exactly what is recommended for the sensible ideal weight loss, well done.

Just come back from a week's holiday and can only bring myself to fess up to having put some on too, not going to admit how much! The next weeks are going to be difficult too as lots of visitors and then we go away again. Will try to be good but don't suppose I will go on GN while we are away so will let you know whether I have succeeded when I get back.

Welcome to the newbies. I can't recommend MFP highly enough, whatever method you are using to lose weight MFP will keep you focussed and there is no way you can cheat it!

I'll try not to let you down glass

move its not me that you would be letting down.................

Don't beat yourself up movedalot - There are so many of us in the same boat this week that if anyone else fesses up to a wee gain we may need a cruise ship rather than a boat!
We all need to spoil ourselves sometimes and when on holiday or entertaining special visitors we need to relax and forget the stress of the scales!
It seems you are having an especially busy time at the moment so if there is a choice of being an 'angel' or a 'little bit of a sinner' try to be an angel!
However, if going the angel route causes any problem or difficulty then go for the little sin.
Very often a break away from constant concentration on the scales can bump start successful weight loss (and wishful thinking emoticon!) and then you can bump up our weekly accumulated total

Thanks sba you are very kind. When we go away the week after next the hotel has scales in each room so I will be reminded on a daily basis if I am sinning! Or I could just shut them in the cupboard!

Gym manager told me this morning that the more muscle I gain the more calories I will use up so I'm going for it. Unfortunately he also told me that there is nothing which can be done about the bingo wings! C'est la vie!

My first Monday report, pleased with a 2lb loss

Good morning nanad fantastic loss well done, I will transfer you onto this weeks thread.
