Lea's Weight Loss Journey - Cannot believe WI today...

Good luck for WI hon x
 
Thank you! I am not sure what to expect to be honest so I'm just going to wait and see.

Well I have decided what my new goal is. I had decided back in September the lowest I wanted to get was 10 stone 7lbs (that was my 'normal' weight before kids). However, last week I was 10 stone 5 so already beneath that. I have decided that 10 stone is going to be my maintaining weight. I honestly cannot believe I am even saying 10 stone but I think that will be pefect for me. Then I have room to gain a few pounds should it happen and keep me away from the 11s.

So tomorrow will see a new target weight for me. As of last monday I have 5 lbs to lose. It could be more (or less) tomorrow. I am actually happy as I am but if my body is comfortably losing then I will go with it :D
 
Wow Lea, you're doing incredibly well. Very sensible goal you're setting - it will give you a nice little cushion for maintaining :) Good luck with your WI tomorrow xxx
 
So i did the deed and checked the scales and I am proud to announce that despite Christmas and eating way too many crisps, chocolate and nuts I have lost 0.2lbs lol :D Barely worth a mention really but a loss is a loss right? I am really pleased with that. I would have been ok with a 2lb gain to be honest. Maybe that wil take some time to catch up and will arrive for next Monday??? Either way, for now I am happy :D
 
You beat me to it. Well done on the loss. A loss is a loss whatever it is, so always worth a mention.
 
Thanks kdma, Anna and MommyB!

I am now feeling nervous about next week. I was not expecting to lose at all. Normally i gain 7lbs over christmas and New Year!

I remember back to my biggest weight ever. It was 2006. Before Christmas I was 12 stone 4. I had a stupidly greedy Christmas and come Jan 2nd 2007 I was a whopping 12 stone 12. I cried there and then. Here I am Christmas 2008 weighing a meer 10 stone 5 with a tiny loss I just can't believe it....I am waiting for the other 7lbs to creep on as they do every year.....
 
Well, out of curiosity I weighed after going to the toilet and i have actually lost 0.5lbs :D I knew i should have waited lol :D
 
LOL - so its a half pound loss then - definitely worth mentioning especially at this time of year. Well done you! Dont worry bout any gains just remember to enjoy seeing in the new year. Any squatters will be shed quickly now we have our teams up and running xxx
 
Stop worrying, you lost because you thought about what you put in your mouth instead of just stuffing it in :) Makes a big difference, you eat so much without realising when you're not paying attention! Your birthday/Christening week never came back to haunt you so I'm sure this won't either.

WELL DONE :D x
 
sounds like you have enjoyed yourself and been sensible, so unless between now and new year you're going to live on takeaways and chocolate i think its safe to say those 7lbs arent hiding around the corner!!
good luck for 2009, i think my biggest downfall is that i worry about getting to tagret, that it wont be how i hope it will be and that holds me back,but i keep going
 
Well done on your lost this week. I'm sure you will not be 7lbs heavier. Those past xmases you weren't dieting and now your making more healthier chocies so I sure you'll end up with a loss. Good luck on your new weight loss target.
