Thread: loony's lunatic weight loss goal

hi all, new to here but not new to sw.
I've decided that I want to get married in 2012, specifically 29th July as it's mine and the OH 18th anniversary of when we met.
I've always been a big ish girl but the weight since meeting Oh and moving in together has crept on over the years.
I always vowed I would never go above 20 stone and 6 years ago I was exactly that so I joined SW again and in 12 weeks I lost 2 stone at last I felt as if I was really getting somewhere and I could see that i might get to that elusive 10 stone.
Then fate stepped in and even though I was using the copper coil I became pregnant.
They couldn't remove it so I had to leave it in and had a very stressful pregnancy as it gave a 50/50 chance of me miscarrying.
Thankfully the little one is here adding to our brood, but it did nothing for my weight as I put the 2 stone back on and then some
I rejoined sw on the 9.2.11 and first week I lost 2.5 and 2nd week 1.5 but I have totally lost the plot this last week so I have decided to throw myself into it properly.

So by my current estimation I have ideally 10 stone 6 lb to lose, i would like to lose at least 5 stone of that this year.

I've joined a gym, got loads of recipe books and I'm gonna start planning.

no more excuses, no more ah just for today I'm off plan,
life is passing me by and i've allowed it to happen so no more

Hi Looneylamb, nice to 'meet' you and look forward to getting to know you better! It sounds like you have a plan and you know what to do, now we just have to take it one day at a time, 1 lb at a time and eventually we will get there!
Good luck xxx

thanks cherry pie, it's sometimes so hard at the beginning to ever see that I'll lose all this weight, but I never thought at the beginning of my degree that I'd finish the 1st year nevermind complete it all.

I weigh in on a wednesday night so I started afresh on thursday morning.
so my days looked like this

Thursday.

B - 2 weetabix (1HEB) and milk (1HEA)
L - Jacket potato and cheese (1HEA)
T - Spaghetti bolognaise (soya mince, passata, mushrooms, onions, courgettes, sweetcorn, tinned toms, oxo cube, garlic, ickle bit of chilli powder)

1 aldi harvest bar (light one) (0.5 of my HEB)
whiskey for hot toddy (not feeling well very bad cough) 4 syns
walnut whip 8.5 syns
butter for jacket potato 3.5 syns

so total syns for today is 16 but I'm counting them over the course of the week so that is 16/105

Hello


i just restarted (FOR THE LAST TIME ) 2 weeks ago, and am about the same weight as you, so link arms and we'll do it together!

I lost 5 stone years ago and put it all back on and then some to keep it company Now i am at the heaviest I have ever been and ..IT'S GOT TO GO

I look forward to chatting with you and following your progress.

Good luck!

hi I'm in pain, I've had my contaceptive implant out and the coil put in at the same time !!!!!!!

however if it stops my body thinking it needs to hang onto my fat cos of the implant it will be worth it.

so feeling sorry for myself today even though it's self inflicted

so friday was another green day and it went a little something like this

B - apple, banana.
L - Jacket potato and beans with salad
T - Savoury rice (1syn) 2 frylite eggs

2 slices wholemeal bread toasted (2 x HEB)
slice of bacon (2 syns)
low fat spread for toast (3 syns)
butter for jacket pot (3.5 syns)
toffypop (3 syns)
digestive cream (3 syns )
Sugar (2 syns)
popcorn (4 syns)

so that takes my total syns so far to 36.5/105

hi rainbow rose welcome and thanks for popping in, I'm sure this is gonna be the last time for me and i hope it is for you too, if only it was as easy to take off as it was to put on we'd all wander around in bikini's all day showing off

Oh so true

p.s. (I've had the coil fitted and removed several times over the years too...OUCH )

of course we can for inspiration I often look at capricorn's diary, she's lost a massive 8 stone doing it herself at home without even going to class and to me she is an absolute star

I am happy to report that I have lost 2lb this week yay !!!!!
I've stuck mainly to plan all week but I haven't recorded what I was eating every day which has left me unsure how many syns I've had etc
so goal this week is to post food diary in here every day to help me keep track.

at class we are doing a 12 week challenge with a different challenge each week, this week is to drink 2 litre's of water every day, now I never do it as I don't really like the stuff and over the years I've got into the habit of not drinking and DP likens me to a camel, so this is the perfect opportunity to change that bad habit.
I've also joined the March challenge and set myself a goal of losing 10lb so I'm off to change my siggie then I'll post me food diary up

Well done!

Have a great week this week!

well so much for posting every day, it's been hectic at work and we have a new senior who seems to always arrive at the office when I'm trying to get a sneaky 5 mins on here to post so I never get the chance

happy to report that I lost 3.5lb at WI this week so I'm really happy, hoping to build on that and lose 2 this week to get my half stone award.

so today so far is a red day and I will get on later and post what I've had even if i have to wrestle the internet from DD

keep it up hugs

Hi Loonylamb, well done on your weight loss. I have more than you to lose, but its going well so far! Keep it up, keen to see how you get on x
