Like many, I haven't updated for a while but am still here in spirit! Although I am unlikely to reach the goal I originally set myself, I can see that setting such an aspirational target has helped me to stay focused. I know that I wouldn't have bet money on me even losing as much as I...

Down 3 for me this week. I'm very happy with that! Welcome to all newcomers and congratulations to non-newbies on what seems to be a successful week. Nic 1985 - (65lbs to lose - 65lbs to go) Antiefeva - (30lb to lose - 19lb to go) Baby_Cakes (28lbs to lose - 28lbs to go) Evy_Starlight -...

Down 2 this week but this has been the most difficult week so far. I had one bad day when I didn't care that I went over my calories and ate some crappy food which I have managed to keep limited up until then. I'm keeping fingers crossed that this is just a blip... Sapi, you are doing...

Minus 3 for me...but this week is feeling tough. :( 1985 - (65lbs to lose - 65lbs to go) Antiefeva - (30lb to lose - 24 to go) Baby_Cakes (28lbs to lose - 28lbs to go) Evy_Starlight - (20lbs to lose - 16lbs to go) Geordielass (35lbs to lose, 35lbs to go) gettingfitat50 - (11lbs to lose...

Wow - we have had a great week with some fantastic personal successes! I think it's 29.6 pounds between us and not everyone has checked in. Well done everyone! Nic x

Minus 4 for me again this week so that's a stone since we started this challenge - yay! Congratulations to LadyFi on achieving that milestone and to the other great successes this week. :bliss: Antiefeva - (30lb to lose) Evy_Starlight - (20lbs to lose - 16lbs to go) Geordielass (35lbs...

You must feel so proud of what you have already achieved LadyFi. There's a huge difference between 18 and 14 something! I had a good week myself (down 4) but know that this is because I've returned to work this week and it's been so busy that my exercise has gone up and time thinking about...

OK everyone, we are now four weeks in and know that this is all too often when the motivation dips and the slipping can start. Look at the progress we have collectively made and feel proud to be a part of it...74 pounds and counting...that's over 5 stone! If you are in need of a little...

4 pounds down for me! It's nice to see how well you have been doing whilst I've been away :D Although I didn't calorie count whilst on holiday, I did try to eat sensibly and healthily as much as possible. I did have two blowout meals though! However, I walked loads and even went on a...

Well done gettingfitat50 and Katierose! I lost 2 pounds which I'm pretty pleased with. I spent the weekend at a lovely hotel in Wales and have tried to make healthy choices when eating breakfast and meals out...so I wasn't sure what the reading would be today! I'm off to the States...

I've fluctuated between a size 20 and 28 (mainly closer to the latter) all of my adult life. I even got married in Las Vegas to avoid the trauma of what I would look like in a wedding dress, photos etc. I have lost at least 3 stone on 3 occasions - but have always put it back on. I know that...

I'm loving this group - this thread has now been added to my Home tabs! I like Flic's idea of finding out more about each other so here goes... I'm Nicola (Nic to friends :D) and am 37. I'm determined that this will be the last diet I go on. However, I do have the challenge of a 10 day...

Well done LadyFi! You've done us proud ;) Hi Rainstar - nice to meet you! I've had a small victory today...I can now take my jeans off without unbuttoning them! Go small scale triumphs that nobody else sees! Hoping that everyone else has had a good day...

That's really inspiring - to see how much difference your loss so far has made. It's hard to visualise what progress will look like along the journey. Well done :D

I'm SO up for being part of this as well. As someone who has tried every diet fad going, and lost more than my current weight in my lifetime (but regained it all and more each time), I am trying to lose weight the 'proper' way. I am calorie counting and trying to exercise more...and finding...
