The last stone mission......ROLL UP!!!! - MiniMins.com

Coley · 11th October, 2006

Hey there....I'm not really much of a poster, but I've figured what the hey! My name is Nicole, I'm 20, a 4th Year Psychology Student, Customer Service Advisor and a CDC.

Currently I weigh 11st 1lb. Original Weight was 16st, and got down to 11 before on LL, then put 3 back on (my LLC couldn't accommodate me in the management class), so was 14st 2lbs when I started CD and have been messing about for ages and got back on track.

So I am left with 1 stone to lose and this is where I completely lose the plot.

I fit in to size 10 trousers in some places, but mostly a 12. I am content with the size I am...but it's about actually reaching the goal I set myself and being well within a nice healthy BMI.

It's my 21st at the end of this month and I want to be as near my goal as possible....2 and a bit weeks....I would like to be 10st 6lbs, the lightest I've ever been!!

Just wondering if there is anyone out there who has about a stone to lose and would like to join me in shifting that last bit!!!

Hi Nicole,

I've mucked about with the last stone since January. Got to within 10lb then put some back then lost it, then put some back then lost it........

Okey dokey, lets go!!!!!!

Coley · 12th October, 2006

Hey 10stonesize 10 and Cheb!! Thanks for joining me!!

Right!!! day 1 of mission!!! I have till Tuesday to SS then I have to start eating cause of BMI but I will not nibble before then!!!

So far so good. 1 pack down, hate having it so early but had to go into Uni early and I was hungry!!. Not very much water. I'm in Uni till 1 so can't really do much until after then. I want to do 4 litres a day like I did on LL. EEK!! 4 litres. gee whizz....that seems like loads!

Must go, dissertation to get on with and then lectures. How you getting on girlies?

I weighed 10 stone 4 last week, hopefully down a couple of lbs tonight at weigh in although has all gone a bit wrong recently (and I was being so good until now) so may not have lost any. I am fitting into size 12s mostly but want to be 9 stone and a size 10. Most of me looks OK now (mum wants me to stop) but I still have a lot of weight to lose on my tummy/waist. I understand completely what you mean by wanting to reach the goal you set yourself. I may get down to 9 and then decide 9 and a half is better but I'd like to have the option of choosing. It appears a lot of people have a problem with the last stone (I think there are a couple of threads re this) - hopefully we can all support each other. Good luck everyone!!

**Summerskye** · 12th October, 2006

I'm with you guys!!

I've lost 98 lbs to date, with another 17 lbs left to go to get to my target weight (although I may decide to extend that by a few more pounds once I get there and see what I look like).

I know how tough it is to maintain focus when you're so close to goal and it'll be great to have the support of you lot for the 'last push' to target.

Let's go and do it!

Coley · 12th October, 2006

Wahey!! Hello Sharon!! Here I am talking away like I know you. I was a bit of a lurker on the DH Boards, have been on there for coming up to 3 years since I was 18. I was there when you first started.....so have been following you!

You are looking amazing I must say!!

Glad all went well with the new clients tonight! talk about being thrown in at the deep end...5 in one go on your first day! sheesh!!

A bit of a strange day for me today...hrm...cottage cheese was calling me but have resisted! here is to another few days of SS!! yey!!

Hope everyone is ok.

**Summerskye** · 12th October, 2006

Wow! Thanks Nicole

I always wonder who reads my rubbish - and now I know at least you do *lol*

It was a bit of a baptism by fire .. but I seem to have come through it relatively unscathed

I think you could do a lot worse than cottage cheese, but well done you for resisting just the same!!

Here's to the last stone coming off eh?

Count me in Nicole.. I'm coming up to my first anniversary of VLC dieting and really need to get to my goal!!!!! I've faffed around for months now and it's about time I got stuck in and finished what I started!!!

love xxxx

Jubbly · 13th October, 2006

Ooh lost 3lbs last night. Now I have 1 stone and 1lb to go before my target of 9 stone (although I have put 8 stone 13 on my ticker to 'round it up' to a 50lb loss). My CDC told me to stay on AAM this week although my BMI is in the 23s I think. She also said I should just go straight from that to 1000 as I don't think I can afford 790, with the 3 packs and food as well What programme is everyone else on that it trying to lose that last stone and what kind of BMIs are you? I set myself a target of a low BMI as I didn't want to set a target and then reset it (works for some I know but not for me), but now I'm getting so confused over introducing food!!

**MandyB2** · 13th October, 2006

Hi Jubbly, great loss this week BTW

my BMI is 25 at the moment and I have a low target too... around BMI 20.5.. I am small framed and still have loads of lower body fat!!!!!!
Food wise I've been struggling big time lately.. really I should be on the 1000 plan but It's been more like the 1500 - 2000 plan!!!!!

I eat a combination of CD packs and low carb foods. I'm losing slowly the weight I gained on my hols at the moment and am still 6lbs heavier than my lowest weight of 11.09!!!
I'm hoping to be near my target of 10 stones for Xmas.. I've been messing for too long now!!!!

love xxx

**Summerskye** · 13th October, 2006

Well done Jubbly! Great going honey!

Mandy - we can do this last bit together, honey. I know how tough you find it and I'll do everything I can to get to to your target .. even if it kills me *lol*. You're doing great at the moment and I can't wait to see you when you get to your 10 stone goal xxx

I've lost 1 lb since my last 'official 'weigh-in before I went on holiday - but as I put on 7 lbs while I was away, and lost that plus 1 lb I'm pretty pleased all told

.

I'm still a 26.5 BMI so can maintain sole-sourcing for a while longer .. probably another 9/10 lbs I reckon .. and then start the maintenance steps. How weird will that be?!

Jubbly · 13th October, 2006

Cheers babes, it's great to just go on here and get all these 'well dones' from everyone who is going through the same thing. My BMI is actually in the 23s I think (not sure of height) but I, like you Mandy, still have a lot of lower body fat and know I need to get rid of this as it is unhealthy. CDC says there is only so much a diet can do and I need to do target exercise on my tummy to get it flatter (bummer). She is fine for me to still be on AAM though and suggests I move up to 1000 in a week or so (gah - real food!!). Really hope I don't go mad serving myself carbs and can keep to the portion sizes (potential downfall) but not feeling very well today, really shaky and 'jittery' and anxious (been a bit like this on and off since start of diet) so consider it time to think about reintroducing normal food. Good luck everyone with that last stone!!
