I bet that felt good! I actually went on a bus yesterday and I haven't been on one in years! Feel so proud with myself. I got myself booked into a hair salon to get my hair done, gonna cost a bit for both me and the OH but it'll be worth it. My OH has gone down some sizes also and she is...

Sorry I haven't replied in a while. Small update on the weight loss. I had my Bday recently and I went to the cinema and had a pizza hut. I know that's naughty and all but I lost all the weight I put on in the same week! I'm 1.8lbs away from hitting the -3 Stone mark! My mental health is...

I've lost 2 stone and 5lb so far in regards of weight. If you want news about my mental state things are not too good. I've had a referal from my doc to a mental health team which I guess can be good. I've had some minor side effects with the meds my doctor gave me but last night I wasn't very...

I'm so so thanks. The meds take 2-4 weeks to kick in. Weigh-in tomorrow but very proud of losing so much so far.

Things are a bit better then they were. I'm starting some meds tomorrow see how things go. I'm in a better state of mind today though thanks.

Lost another 3lb. I've now lost a total of 31lb in just over 3 months :) It shows too, both mine and my OH bottoms are goign round our ankles lol. Thanks for asking, and awesome you got your cuddles.

Thanks you two :) I hope you get to see you kids tomorrow then! I bet it feels like a part of you is missing. I want a baby pretty badly but with my problems now isn't the time. Keep up with the weight loss, both of you! Weigh day for me tomorrow.

Things have been pretty bad for me with my mental health problems lately, worst in 10 years in-fact. I'm getting some help hopefully on Thursday though thanks. Hope your kids get home soon! I've lost over 2 stone now and still going, lost 3lb so far this week even with a few naughties with me...

Didn't think I'd mentioned anything about where I met my other half? I suck at remembering things. I don't want to go on there as if she noticed she may think that I can't talk to her. I do speak to her about a lot of things but she is a bit down in the dumps as of late.

I have yes. For info on CPN see: Community Psychiatric Nurse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

No point in going to the docs. Spoke to one over the phone and she said it would be hard to find a cpn in my area.

She has lost almost the same. I haven't made an appointment yet, I just can face it. Sorry.

Everything is ok thanks. Weight loss is going great. I had a subway for the first time. Had one of the lowest the 6" ham at almost 300Kcal for dinner. It's was great! I weigh-in on wednesdays now as that seems to be when I see the most results. I've lost 2 stone in total last week :)

Everything is alright thanks. I haven't been to the doctors yet. I've lost 3lb this week and 1 or 2 before. I forget. Hope you enjoyed your holiday.

Called docs. Me and the better half have been accepted and are now registered.. I don't know what to do now though. I can't/don't wanna go in.

I'll call them on Thursday then. I forgot about that, thanks. I lost 4lb this week. That 4lb I lost on the Wednesday after my last weigh-in so I have lost nothing for the rest of the week. I don't get it :sigh:

Thank you for all your kind words. I'm going to call the doc on Friday and see if I have been accepted. I weigh myself every week but I can't help weigh myself sometimes.

I didn't but I did today (Thursday). I didn't like it one bit! Oh, and the scales say I have lost -4lb today but I lost nothing yesterday.. I don't know.

Erm.. let's just say I did.

Well done for not eating crap! I lost nothing this week. I started eating more kcals but it hasn't worked. I'm back to 1500/1550. The GP said they would put me in touch with one but they don't have none in the Surgery. I plan to go to the post box today... Will let you know.

I'm going to try and post them wednesday. It isn't easy for me to get out and the post box is 10 mins away which is hard for me. I used to see a CPN at my previous home until the CPN had to have an OP and couldn't see me anymore. I'll have to ask the Surgery if they can let me see one.

I've not posted back the registration forms yet. Not felt upto it. I'm trying to eat a little more for tea and see how I go.

Actually my BMR is 2742 (no exercise) 3047 (with). I calculated it wrong. I'm struggling to eat 1500 a day. I end up having 1200 and eating nothing but "junk". I seem to lose 4-5lb at the beginning of the month and 1-3lb for the rest of it. I have no idea how to tell if I'm eating too little. I...

BMR at current weight = 2438. I'm eating 1500 a day.

That is worrying... how can you tell?

Hey Carol and Suzy :) When I met my other half she hated pink! She wouldn't touch or wear it. Gradually I have got her wearing pink though :) I think she looks good in pink. Blue is my favourite colour so that is why I picked it. I hope the weight loss for both of you is going just as well.

Thanks for the support hchappyh (what's your name if you don't mind?). I would paint it blue :D

Weigh-in today. I lost 4lb this week! I'm chuffed. I did nothing differently! I have some registration forms coming from a local surgery who said I can post them back due to my situation. Hopefully I can get some help soon as I'm getting to my old ways :cry:

I have and I want to see someone, I'm not sure how to do it. I moved into this area I am now almost 8 months ago and don't have a GP. I can't get out to register and I can't post a registration form so I'm kinda stuck. I'm kinda getting bad again but I'm masking it up in front of the better...

I'll try... ON+H?

Funny you mention that. I did about a year or so ago but the person I was seeing had to have an operation for reasons they wouldn't disclose. The passed me onto someone else while they were ill and I never saw him. A few months back I found out he hadn't worked at the clinic for months so I...

Lost almost another 3lb again last week :) Other half did the same. My other half noticed she is getting more curvy now and her confidence in herself has gone up no end which is really great. This time next year I hope to be of normal size. I would like it to go a bit quicker but what can you...

Weigh-in yesterday (Tues). Lost another 2lb! :D Lost over a stone now so I'm chuffed. It's showing! A T-Shirt that was tight on me a few weeks back is now baggy! Support on here is great! Thanks everyone!

I only speak to my other half about what I read on here. She is losing weight too. In Fat Families this guy called Steve helped people with weight problems by giving them top of the range treadmills and stuff in exchange for their sofa or something. People who couldn't lose weight or didn't...

I actually LOL'd at that! I've told her, her bum is smaller. We call each other fat arse anyway :p We know our bellies are getting smaller as we measure them the same day we weigh in. She really wants to be a 10/12/14. She will get there. I really wanna be a 32in/34in/36in. I would love some...

I did something a little naughty and weighed myself to day and I lost another 1lb but seeing as it isn't my weigh day I haven't recorded it but if I have - I will of lost my 1st stone in a day over 5 weeks. We do motivate each other. When she told me she lost 3lb at our last weigh in I gave a...

Thank you :D OH lost 3lb and she's really happy about it! We have both lost about 12-13lb now.

She hopes she does lol!.. Only lost a lb this week... A little gutted but still I reached my feb goal :)

Too late I already have told her. We are very close to one and other and she wanted them to go down a bit as they were big and hurt her back... They still do mind :D

Thanks for asking :) Shes doing great too. Shes getting a little upset as I'm losing more than her but thats because my calorie deficiency is bigger. This week I've been having more so I don't lose it quicker then her. She has lost 8lb in a month and I lost 12lb. Which is bang on what I...

Thanks :D I'm going to keep at it. My chest is a lot thinner and it looks like I'm made from 2 people LOL

Thanks for the breakdown! I lost another 3lb! I'm 1lb away from my goal :)

What's this ketosis? :confused:

Awesome! I wish I could lose it that fast!

How did the weigh-in go?

You could ask him? It's brilliant us both doing it. Seems to be working for us anyway. Going to keep it up and hope we have enough money for new clothes soon, ha. We're saving loads on the weekly shop! Spent it on little things for the house.

I've lost 10cm around my waist already. That's 3.9inches. I find it hard to believe but I am really seeing it! My manboobs (LOL) are virtually gone and the other half don't like that lol. Better half lost 2lb. She has now lost 6lb in 3 weeks. Both keeping to our goal of 2lb minimum a week. I'm...

I'm 19st 6lb today so I lost -4lb last week :). I'm happy with that, I guess lol.

I'm eating 1500 cals now and doing NO exercise except the normal daily stuff. I've been naughty and had a couple of sqs of chocolate I bought and had some Ice-cream. I don't wanna "jump ahead" but I couldn't help but weigh myself this morning and my weight this morning was 19st 9lb and if...

Hello! My loyal subjec... Wrong forum, oops. Your right, that sucked. Sorry I haven't been around lately. I've been looking at this Go Lower etc and it looks expensive but then I thought - would I need to shop at ASDA too? I'm a fussy eater, can you pick what you want or is it "eat it - or...

Thanks for all the support and nice comments :) We do weigh everything and I mean everything. I had a bit more than I was supposed to yesterday. I had 1555Kcal. It's a bit difficult to know what to eat and whatnot as I have never dieted before. The 1800Kcal that I have been "told" to eat is...

Hope it all goes well for you. I want to appologize if I annoyed anyone lately. I've just got lots of oranges, apples and red grapes. Urge has gone. I'm not eating a lot. I've been on a few sites and everyone says with NO exercise I should eat 1800 or more to lose weight or 3120 to maintain. I'm...

Your right... I'm doing the weekly shop on asda. If I post an image on here could people tell me what I shouldn't be buying? I'm looking at the cals and it all seems ok.

We do in a book. Not changed a thing. I think I'll use myfitnesspal - I signed up but have yet to use it. Would it be naughty if I get a small portion of chips and a mini cod from the chippy? I've not had fish and chips in months and want some :(. I missed breakfast this morning aswell.

I'm pretty low at the moment. Just gone on the wiifit and it too says I've gained a lb (it did the day before too) so the past week has been useless I've lost 0. It's only my second week too, I thought the first 2 were the biggest losses? :eatdrink051:

Ok thank you! The other half has lost 5lb in total now and I have lost 7lb. ASDA shopping is arriving tomorrow and bought lots of fruit (many oranges! I've gone nuts on them :confused::D no idea why). OH wanted "chinese apples" but ASDA didn't do them but they did "oriental apples" ;) When I...

Well did a check again today. I've lost another pound and the o/h another so I've lost 7lb in just under 2 weeks and the other half 4lb in just under 2 weeks. I think I must be doing something right to lose half a stone so quickly. It isn't my aim to lose it overnight, I know it could take upto...

Hey Silence, The only thing with homemade stuff is that we have no idea of how many kcals are in it. The whole make your own burger thing sounds lovely and I mentioned it to other half (who loves to cook can you believe?) and she said she could do that. I wanted to raid the cupboards last...

Hope you don't mind me dropping in on your thread but well done Redkoala! You've lost so much! Yet another inspiration from minimins! My b-day is the day before yours (21st)... No way I'll get anywhere by then :p

Thanks for all the help CrazyBrit. Wanted to save some cash as I calculate our BMR on the computer anyway so got these (Salter Black Glass UST Electronic Scale - Model 9007 - Boots) from boots. Nice big screen, simple weighing with .2 of a lb. Arrives Tuesday.

How do most people lose over 8lb in a week?! Must have secret!

Good old Wii Fit said I lost another 1lb and the better half 1lb :rolleyes: I'm thinking about getting these (also SALTER) http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/8313892/c_1/1|category_root|Health+and+personal+care|14418350/Trail/searchtext%3ESCALES.htm Mainly for the backlight and...

Seem to be doing ok. I'm still the same weight and my better half lost 2lbs yesterday. She said she "thinks it's wrong" but I lost 2lbs on my first day :) We get ASDA to deliver our shopping. We don't drive but not only that you don't have all the food to tempt you and your not bumping into...

Dam! Asda had these for £7 a week or two ago I think. Do they show fractions of a pound?

Like these babies? Buy Salter Super Thin Glass Electronic Scale. at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for .

I'm a big fan of cereal. I would eat it all day if I could. I must have that for breakfast atleast and maybe for dinner if the better half allows. We have been trying the WW ready meals and the ocean pie is fab. With 150g of skins on chips it's around 360kcal for it all but I feel like I...

No but our microwave can steam. We tried it about a month or two ago with carrots and they tasted just like my late mother's used to in the steamer. Does that count? In regards to the £500 a month a domino's, the only reason we could afford it is because my father didn't charge us rent. He...

Can you go into detail more about the diet your on? I'll pick up some normal scales as we do use the Wii on a carpet and sometimes when we have done more exercise and eaten the same we put on weight so. Any recommendations for scales?

Haha, nah I am not me and my other half. It's a long story why we where doing that though. We were always given 50% and I wonder why, it was costing us around £500 a month ...annnddd you just fell to the floor didn't you? We do eat meat although mostly fish or chicken breast. We found these...

Hey guys and gals :D Me and my other half really wanna lose weight this year. We have been calorie counting but we keep getting different information on the amounts we should eat. We are both in really bad shape for our ages. I'm 20 and the better half is 19. My mother and father pasted away...

Tell that to the WiiFit. It makes you weight daily or it thinks you have missed a day. You get a stamp everyday you weigh in. Gonna get some bathroom scales I think and do it ourselves. Is there anything you can recommend we do?

Thanks for the replies. We are a little bit down at the moment as for the past 4 or 5 days the OH has lost virtually nothing and I'm putting weight on! Would I be right in thinking my body has rejected what I'm doing? I'm doing 60 mins on the WiiFit (440Kcal-ish) and eating a hell-of-a-lot less...

Hey there, My name is Scott. I've always been kinda big even when I was little and me and my other half have both had it being large and we are making 2010 the year we lose most of it! We started last week (19th) I was 285lbs at the beginning of last week and I'm now 280lbs. My other half was...
