Well done. You are doing so well.
 
Well, that's better than me (congratulations!!!).

I lost 0.2.

I knew yesterday that I hadn't lost. My weight goes down everyday (after going up after the weekend). When yesterday's weight did not show last week's loss, I knew today I wouldn't see more. I was really down about it all day yesterday, but still pushed myself to do a really good lower body workout. However, I *think* I know what went wrong, and am actually much more optimistic than I was. I'm going to make some major tweaks to my diet (which I'll post in my diary rather than here), and if those tweaks work it will make the transition into maintenance nearly seamless.

group loss 31.2lb and 2,5 inches

I am sorry I went awol for a week - but the lock down is playing havoc with my mental health

for those of you worring about lack of loss or loss not expected please remember that you put weight on over time some times a half some times a pound or more but over time we never stayed the same each month (unless it was another try at weight loss)
so even the odd put on due to things that dont go to plan or a sts are brilliant The fact that you are still here means you are still doing it and that is fantastic

and those of you with fanstic losses thats brilliant

and look what we have done as a group 31.2lb apparently that is a mid sized micro wave - I wouold hate to take turns in carrying that around for 20 hours at a time :) :) and of course Fayes wonderful 2.5 inches
 
Well done on your loss @Aaleigha and great to see you posting. It is so important that we look after our mental wellbeing during this difficult time as well as the physical.
I am delighted (and a little surprised) that I’ve managed to lose 3lbs this week.

Hope everyone has a good week. I look forward to reading how your getting on. And remember we are living in unprecedented times. Any loss, or staying the same, in these times should be viewed as a victory.

So possibly some really good news. My weight didn't even shoot up a full pound over the weekend. It usually shoots up 3+ pounds, then takes me most of the week to get back to the previous Friday's weigh-in weight, and then on Friday I see a loss (compared to the previous Friday). That is pretty much clock work. So . . .

I'm hoping the means that I actually did lose weight last week and that I will see a pretty decent drop this Friday . . .

I don't know about others but this week felt more difficult. Locked down and with Easter treats too! I think you've done really well to STS @Ravenous @GaGirl I'm expecting a gain for going wildly off the rails! Massive congratualtions to @Aaleigha 2 lbs! Wow. Also, good luck @Steampunk Chic We're weigh in buddies on Friday morning!! See you there :)
 
Thanks. Not feeling very hopeful. I've been at 172 all week. I even took my measurements to console myself. Nope, they are up too. No idea why. And this is with NO Easter treats, eating right all week, and working out. And then yesterday, on top of all that, TOTM. So it will be a miracle if I lose tomorrow. Am feeling very discouraged. 😭
 
Well I gained 3lb. Didn't think I was that bad.

Come on @Steampunk Chic you can do this! If you don't see a loss for all your hardwork this week you will definitely see it next week. Just one more week! We can do this!
 
I'm up a couple ounces (170.0) but TOHM so just gonna count it as a STS. @Teasel so sorry about the gain. I don't understand what's going on. It's like the dementors are breeding. 😭

@Steampunk Chic Watch now next week, you'll have a nice loss as a reward for waiting it out this week. I think there is something weird going on with my body too. I need to shift my all or nothing attitude, I have a little cjicken skin and that's it! Crisps, chocolate galore! I did get in that mindset before, and I'll get there again! It's a long game and we can do it! Do you think a financial incentive would work for you again?

Still sts. Not sure I’m eating enough so I’m actually going to start logging my food.

have a good week everyone

I think a lot of us STS this week. Hopefully, if we all keep to plan we have a big loss between us.

The more of no calorie (Free food) we eat the more we lose as those food makes our body work hard to burn the food.
I have come to a point that I can't eat too much in one sitting so I am breaking down my meals to smaller portions but more frequent (have to watch not to eat more).
 
I’ve lost a pound this week, so with one more weigh in for me before the end of the month I have another 1 1/2 pounds to lose. I think that should be doable.
