gally I dont think you will have any problems recognising me I dont think I will fade away before April grin

glassortwo Tue 12-Mar-13 21:18:10

gally grin kids dont you love them!!!

If you are having problems sticking to the 5:2 try cutting out bread, oil (use fry light to cook with if you can get that over there) and up your fruit and veg, make sure you are having milk for your calcium but be careful with cheese. You dont need to cut out your wine just try to cut back a little and you will see some good results.

Gally Tue 12-Mar-13 21:06:44

P.S. Well done glass Will we recognise you in April?! grin

Gally Tue 12-Mar-13 21:04:28

I think I am going to have to join you lot for moral support. I took 4 yr old DGD to nursery yesterday; when she came home she reported that her friend Hannah said 'your Granny's fat'. blush Ok, I'd like to be a couple of stone lighter, but I ain't fat. As DD remarked 'you should see Hannah's Mummy - that's fat!'
DD and I are both eating healthily - she to lose baby weight and I am on the 2:5 regime although finding it a little difficult to remain on track while staying here in Oz.

I have lost 3lbs this week amazing what bronchitus can do for weight loss shock
move you seem to have got your head in the right place well done.
notso mrshat galen right lets sweep it under the carpet and a new start from tomorrow, its been a difficult weekend for lots of us when its sometimes the only time our family spoil us, and you cant refuse a little spoiling. So chin up onward we go smile

This weeks total 5.5lb
Challenge total 3stone 5lb

Galen Tue 12-Mar-13 19:40:51

Galen Tue 12-Mar-13 19:39:34

I'm not sayingangry I give up!

mrshat Tue 12-Mar-13 19:36:28

Hi, I've stayed the same again this week. Passing that 13 stone mark is proving more difficult than I thought. Maybe if the weather improves .............. hmm

Notso Tue 12-Mar-13 18:57:57

I've stayed the same this week, which is better news than I was expecting given a couple of days 'off piste' (Or words to that effect) grin

#mustfocus

Good luck everyone!

Movedalot Tue 12-Mar-13 09:07:25

I can add 1 lb to the target this week having lost last week's gain plus 1 lb. It is jolly hard work when you can't exercise!

Tegan I hope it is holiday which is taking you off work and not illness?

Well done when.

Hi returners/starters Good luck to you all. I only came back last week since before Christmas and want to lose as much as I can so I can get into my summer clothes. Then I need to keep it of for our son's wedding next year.

glassortwo Mon 11-Mar-13 21:22:01

when every little bit helps smile
sba its good to have you back, I hope you had the music on when you were ironing and hoovering its surprising how many calories you burn off. wink

grannyeggs tegan glamma I think the weather has been miserable but hopefully it will turn and we can get more enthusiastic. Having something to work towards is the best incentive we can have, and wedding outfits is the best you can get. smile

This weeks total .5lb
Challenge total 2stone 13.9.5lb

glammanana Mon 11-Mar-13 10:31:03

Sbagran I am also back on the weight loss challenge I need to get down a couple of dress size's for the wedding of the year in September,last week I shed 4lbs and hope for the same this week but I don't get weighed until Thursday my scales at home also have a mind of their own and spill out random numbers shock I'm looking to loose about 1st.in total maybe a wee bit more so I can get into a size 12/14 comfortably.

Tegan Mon 11-Mar-13 09:41:56

Not at work so no proper scales to use [mine aren't very accurate] but all I know is that I'm sticking to my diet/healthy eating plan really well, with no eating between meals, although we're at Cheltenham tomorrow for the racing and will have to take sandwiches to eat [can't easily smuggle other sorts of food in wink]. Hopefully going oop north next week and should kick start some exercise as well [note to self; don't forget to pack the walking poles].

Grannyeggs Mon 11-Mar-13 09:31:34

Well done sbagran, I will join you on mission weight loss. I realise I have been faffing about with it in the last month and getting nowhere slowly!good Luck.

Sbagran Mon 11-Mar-13 09:16:58

Morning fellow losers!
Having had over a month time-out I am obviously about a ton heavier than I was when I last weighed, but it would be unfair to everyone to count that in the running total as I wasn't taking part in the challenge then. It was a very stressful period which involved a certain massive amount of comfort eating which is always lethal isn't it!

I am now starting a new 'Mission Weightloss' and must get serious! I weighed yesterday morning as always and was 161.2lbs which is 11st 7+lbs ouch blush My target is 10st 7/8/9lbs so I have a stone to lose hmm

Good luck everyone - hopefully the spring is on its way (snowing here this morning sad) and we will be able to get out more? That would make us all feel so much better and more inclined to exercise - bit of ironing now then bit of hoovering - who knows haha grin

Well done When - a loss is a loss -hope for the best!

Wheniwasyourage Mon 11-Mar-13 08:13:41

Down 200g from 2 weeks ago at 64.9kg. Not spectacular, and I didn't report last week because of blush, but let's just hope for the best! Good luck, everyone!

glassortwo Sun 10-Mar-13 23:18:23

Monday again. Good luck smile
