I seem to be stuck,after losing 3 and half stone, I need to have lost around 3 lbs to move down so wish me luck.

A bit disappointing i only lost 1.4 lbs,I swam 66 lengths on Tuesday that is just over a mile and today I did 70 lengths,so I hope to lose enough by my next weigh in to drop down to the 19 stone room.

Looking forward to my weigh in on Monday,been swimming 4 times since my last weigh in and done some good walks too,must have swam 180 lengths at least and done some good walking also.

I am determined to get in the 19 stone room quickly,went swimming Monday did 61 lengths.went again today didn't have as long but still managed 54 lengths,up to now done almost 7000 steps according to my pedometer,Becky where are you.

I am not to sure about the gym,I did not enjoy it at all,I felt like a fish out of water,they were all youngsters.I may stick to the swimming although my son said he wants to join the gym,if he went i may be tempted to go with him.

Welcome Katie like you i want to move down,good luck.

I put on 3 lbs so not to bad,I went swimming on Monday and swam 50 lengths,went to the gym today done 35 minutes on the treadmill and 20 minutes cycling and 5 minutes on another machine,then I come home and took Heidi (my German Shepherd) for a 2 mile walk.

I have been on holiday all week so i expect to have put on quiet a bit of weight,i have not been a good boy.Will see tomorrow when i weigh in.:eek:

I can`t remember being 11 stone,I would be over the moon if I ever get near 15 stone,I think that would be a good weight for me.On the plus side I have took a step closer to going in the gym,i bought some new trainers and two t shirts.I bought a pair of track suit bottoms last year but could...

Too many Easter eggs,I think i will be here for a while yet,not gone swimming this week or next week,I will wait until the school holidays are over.I would really like to go in the gym,but i don't feel confident enough to do it.:cry:

Great story,i hope I can follow in your footsteps,I have joined a gym a couple of weeks ago,not used it yet though although i have used the swimming pool.If i go to the gym I am unsure what to do,what equipment to use.I cant use weights because i dislocated my left arm and have a radial head...

Well done Yummy,i am going to take the dog for a walk now and then go swimming,then i will have my weigh in,if i have lost 5 lbs i will be joining you in the 19 stone room.

I went swimming today and did 40 lengths,my son wants to learn to swim so I.I may take him tomorrow,he is a bit big to hold he`s 26 years old I think swimming for one hour means i can eat an extra 700 calories,not that i will be doing,

You will soon be back,I joined a gym yesterday,I have the choice of 6 swimming pools and 4 gyms,it cost £24.50p a month,its not to bad I was paying almost £30 a month to go swimming twice a week.I have never been in a gym in my life,and I will not be using them to start off with,maybe when I...

Still losing so going in the right direction.

I went swimming again on Thursday for another hour,I wanted to know how many lengths I could do without stopping, I managed 10, I stopped for a minute and then done another 10, I repeated this another two times,so I did 40 lengths in the end.Will try to go two times a week from now on and hope...

I hope reaching my target goes a bit faster,I wish we could fast forward the diet,will go for another walk in the morning after i Finnish work,hope the weather stays dry,my dog is getting out of breath before I do

I am from Manchester

My target date is September 2012 and i am aiming at loosing half a stone a month,so if i done that i may even loose more and change my target weight by another stone or more.

Patience is the key,they say if you loose weight slowly you will keep it off,i have lost 2 stone since August but i am now aiming to lose half a stone per month,if i loose more then that will be a bonus,we can all do it.

I need to loose 5 stone,i have lost just over 2 stone since August and would like to loose another 5 stone. brads
