Weighed myself this morning and I now weigh 13 stone, so close to being 12 stone something. The weight is coming off slowly but surely. :)

Now weigh 13 stone 3 pounds, 4 pounds to go. Hopefully I can manage it in 2/3 weeks. :)

Jacket potato with beans and cheese, a simple meal with a decent amount of protein for after the gym. :)

Currently weigh 13st 8lb, 9 pounds to go!

My weight loss seems to have stalled for some reason. :( I've even had three really tough sessions at the gym this week.

Well done Hoz! I can't wait until I start losing again. :)

Ooh how was pliates? I'm going to a pilates class tomorrow. I'm focusing on running at the moment and really enjoying it. :)

This warm weather is definitely motivating me to lose weight for summer. :)

Feeling much better this week, ready to get back on plan for the summer. :) I've had a bit of gain this week but I'm sure it will be gone soon.

Woo well done to everyone with losses so far. Feeling a lot better this week so I'm back on track for the summer. :)

Haven't had a great week. Been feeling really under the weather this last week and have had no energy to do anything. Went to the doctors and he sent me for a blood test and told me to avoid exercise until I know what's wrong and to keep eating to make sure I don't faint. Looks like I'm going to...

I have some and I prefer them to regular scales. My body fat percentage has gone down in proportion to the weight I have lost which is encouraging and shows that I am losing fat rather than muscle. I don't think it's 100% accurate but it does give me a good idea which is helpful. It gives me a...

I know a few people like that, most of the time it is just pure jealousy. You've done really well and you should be proud. :)

How has everyone been? :)

Been a bit under the weather lately but still managed the gym today and I seem to be roughly back down to the weight I was before Easter. My life would be so much easier if chocolate didn't exist. ;)

Aw I know the feeling, but most of the times when I have felt like that I have still lost weight. Well done for staying on plan! :) Easter didn't go too well for me, chocolate is my biggest weakness and I ended up having a 5 pound gain even though I still ate normal portion sizes and went to...

Holidays are really motivating for weight loss. :) Thinking about wearing nice clothes when I go away days in the summer is my motivation, don't want to be hiding behind baggy clothes like I was last year. :o

Had a gain this week. :cry: I knew it had been a bad week but not a 3 pound gain. I've still been going to the gym and eating normal, healthy meals but been picking at Easter egg chocolate all week. Hopefully it will all come off this week, just shows how easy it can be to put the weight back on...

I'll go for 5 pounds as well. :) Hoz (0 lbs lost, 5 lbs to go) Josephsmummy (0lbs lost 3lbs to go) Kiki30 (0 lbs lost, 5 lbs to go) Lisa123 (0 lbs lost, 6 lbs to go) Marleybear (0 lbs lost, 6 lbs to go) SilverMoon (0lbs lost 4lbs to go) Zeke (0 lbs lost, 5 lbs to go) Blubex (0lbs lost, 5lbs...

It is 11 weeks and 4 days until the official start of summer on Sunday the 21st of June. I thought I'd start a summer challenge for those who want to stay on track for summer. Just add your name and the amount you want to lose to the list. :) Toujours 18 lbs to lose (0lbs lost - 18 lbs to go)

I guess it happens to everyone and those who succeed are those who can pick themselves up and get back on with it, I've just got try and be one of those people. Thankyou for your encouragement. :) I usually give up with both but I thought that forcing myself to go to the gym might make me eat...

These last four days have just been awful. Still going to the gym but can't stop eating fattening food for some reason. :cry:

I feel like my mum does the same. I've cut down my portion sizes and now she makes remarks about how it isn't much and asks if it's all I am having. It's really frustrating because my new portion sizes are actual normal portion sizes and it's like she is trying to get me to go back to how I was...

Updated 28/03/2015 @ 10:57AM Lost another two pounds this week. :) Joanne - pledged 56lbs - lost 18.0lbs Autumn500 - pledged 42.5lbs - lost 11lbs (31.5lbs to go) CatA - pledged 56lbs - lost 14.8lbs Jimbob12345 - pledged 50lbs - lost 7.5 Hoz - pledged 42lbs - lost 22lbs (20lbs to go)...

Got down to 12 stone 7 pounds before Christmas and then put most of it back on again. :cry: But I'm even more determined now and am just 5 pounds off of the 11's - I will do it this time!

That is definitely good enough and you will definitely still see results from it. I'm going to try finish as much as I can and then after that I'm going to make my own toning routine to do x3 a week. I hope you feel better soon. :)

2 pound loss this week. Is anyone thinking of doing another challenge after this has ended? :) Bella- 6lbs to lose (0lbs lost- 6lbs to go) Hoz - 8lbs to lose (5lbs lost - 3lbs to go) Cat - 10lbs to lose (5.2lbs lost - 4.8lbs to go) Tink - 10lbs to lose (8lbs lost - 2lbs to go) Joanne - 10lbs...

I'm on 90 second plank as well, don't know how I'm going to be able to do 300 seconds on day 30.

I'm on day 11 of the plank and push up ones. I've never known 30 days to go so slowly. ;)

I'm on day 8, it is definitely getting harder. :)

Oh wow that looks really nice, I will have to try make it one day. :)

The plank one for me isn't too bad - I can hold it for over 60 seconds usually and it's only at 20 seconds at the moment, but on day 30 it goes up to 300 seconds so it will definitely get harder. The push up one is probably the hardest for me. Do you think you will do another challenge after...

How is it going so far? :)

I've recently just discovered the 30 day fitness challenges and feel like it would be a fun way to tone up. Has anyone done these challenges or would anyone like to join in? I'm going to do the 30 day push up challenge and the 30 day plank challenge. :)

Had a pound gain this week. :cry: My weight loss always starts to stall when I get to this weight, just going to push myself harder at the gym and not give up. However, I've now only got 4 weeks to lose 7 pounds. :( Bella- 6lbs to lose (0lbs lost- 6lbs to go) Hoz - 8lbs to lose (1.5lbs lost -...

Put on a pound this week! :cry: It happens every time I get to this weight - I get a gain then the weight loss starts to get slower. I won't give up this time though. Got up early this morning and had a good workout at the gym and I'm cutting out chocolate for the week, I will be slimmer for...

I'm interested in trying out some new classes at the gym this year and am just curious to see what sort of exercise people on here like doing? :)

You can get a pair of digital scales which tell you your weight, body fat percentage, body muscle percentage, BMI and many other things from the major pharmacies such as boots and lloyds (if you're from the UK). I bought a pair from lloyds for £20 and they tell me everything - they even tell me...

Oh wow, that is amazing. :)

Thankyou :) I wanted to try and lose a little bit more this week but I doubt it's going to happen - I'm going out for two meals and can't go to the gym this week because of a knee injury so I'll probably just STS. :(

I weigh 12 stone 13 pounds at the moment at 5'6 and am a size 14 on bottom and top.

Not expecting much of a loss this week, started getting pain in my knee so haven't been able to go running/to the gym much this week. :(

Been naughty and had a brownie today even though I didn't go to the gym. Have a feeling my calories could be over by 100-200 today. :( On a more motivating note, has anyone got anything nice planned for valentine's day? :)

wow that's fantastic, well done! :)

I'm also in the same boat. I lost two and a half stone a few years ago and kept it off for over a year. Then I experienced a lot of new changes in my life and ended up putting the two and a half stone back on and then another half a stone on top! I managed to lose a stone and a half of that...

I'd love to do another challenge after this one. :) I like the idea of an Easter challenge, but Easter is seven weeks after valentine's day so it might be harder.

That's a great idea to start before Christmas - not many people start before Christmas so you sound really motivated! Good luck - I'm sure you'll do great. :)

Oh wow that's a fantastic loss, it sounds like you're doing really well! :)

I try to avoid snacking on chocolate because I find it so hard to stop at the recommended amount and it just makes me even more peckish. :( I keep low-fat yoghurts in the fridge which are under 100 calories - I find that they're sweet and filling after just one. This is probably going to sound...

Are you doing any form of exercise? When I first started I was hardly getting any losses at all for the first few weeks, I then joined the gym and started to get losses each week. Exercise is great for keeping yourself motivated and can also help to get your metabolism moving a bit more. If you...

Upping your calories by a few hundred for a few days sounds like a good idea. It might sound like your undoing all the work you've done so far but by doing a few 'off' days and then continuing your diet, you might just speed up the weight loss. :)

Reweighed myself this morning and that 2lbs the scales said I'd gained yesterday has gone - so it must have been water weight. So this week is a STS for me but I guess it is better than the original gain. :)

Reweighed myself this morning and it turns out I haven't put on 2lbs this week so it must have been water weight. It also means I haven't lost anything this week but I'd rather have the sts. :)

I know how you feel - I lost 2 and a half stone a few years ago and have somehow managed to put 3 stone back on! I was so disappointed in myself and sometimes I get so angry for letting myself get to this point because it makes me feel so self-concious and upset. I feel so angry at myself and...

Gained 2 pounds this week. :( :( Had a horrible week feeling self-conscious about my weight and this gain really just tops it off.

I've somehow managed to put 2lbs on this week. :( :( :(

Lost 2lbs this week - slowly but surely getting closer to the 11's! :)

I've just entered the 12's as well, determined to get into the 11's! :)

The ideal weight range is really just a guidance. If you're happy with yourself at that weight then that's fine. :)

2lbs until I reach the 12 stone zone! :)

2 lbs lost so far, 18 lbs to go.

If you choose the right chocolate then I'm sure you can still lose weight. :) Things like curly wurlys, chomp bars, fudge bars, freddos, milky ways, and those little kinder milk chocolate bars are all less than 150 calories per bar, so you can enjoy chocolate in the right portion. I tend to...

Decided to do a diary as I hope it will help me stay motivated and keep on track. :) A few years ago I used to weigh 13 and a half stone, decided it was time to lose weight and successfully lost 2 and a half stone through calorie counting and exercise and weighed 11 stone. Managed to maintain...

Weighed myself this morning and I haven't lost anything. :( Feeling very unmotivated as I ignored all my cravings this week in order to lose weight - didn't have a takeaway when everybody else did, cut my portion size down and didn't give in to any of my chocolate/junk food cravings. I think...

Stayed the same this week :(

I'd like to lose 20lbs by Christmas, I think that's a reasonable enough target. :)

I'm a student and definitely understand your lifestyle. It's going to be hard trying to eat healthy on a budget and during fresher's week. :o

Lost 5lbs this week. 8lbs until I reach the 12 stones! :)

I think you've got to be realistic with yourself and choose a plan which will benefit you, not deprive you and make you feel miserable. :) I've been tried calorie counting quite a few times over the last year but it has never lasted more than two weeks, but I set myself unrealistic goals like...

I'm a student as well and starting uni in September. Bit worried about how easy it will to carry my diet on when I move but hope I can do it. It's nice to know there's other students on here as well. :)

Mine is too feel confident in what I wear and to fit into my old clothes. :)

I'm 14 stone currently and wear a size 14/16 bottoms and a size 12/14 top, but have only recently had to start buying those sizes. When I was 11 stone I wore a size 12 in everything in every shop. The other day I was buying something online and the size guide said that for my weight I should...

Four years ago I managed to lose 2 and a half stone and weighed 11 stone which I was happy with. I put half a stone of that back on gradually over two years but still carried on eating healthily and having a treat now and again. I then met my boyfriend two years ago and since then I've put on...

Started my weight watchers diet yesterday and am determined to get back down to 11 stone. Previously lost 2 and a half stone, kept it off for three years and have managed to put it all back on and more in the last year due to bad influences around me and a stressful year. Determined to be happy...

Right at the end of the 13s and really want to be back in the 12s. :)
