Start weight - 223 lbs (15s 13 lbs)
Current weight - 150.5 lbs (10s 10.5 lbs)
Loss to date = 72.5 lbs

Not using my normal scales - they the old fashion ones as mine have ran out of battery. Well the needle is showing nearer to 10 st 7 lb so I am going to say that I have stayed the same. the last few lbs before reaching my final goal is agonising - am I ever going to get there. I am happy with the weight I am at now but because I have set the goal I want to achieve it. One day perhaps.

I have been a bit lazy plus the rain that I did not go out for a walk yesterday, so today, I am going to make sure to walk no matter what.

B - Boiled eggs, cottage cheese, 1/2 banana, a few cherry toms
D - chili mackerel salad (leaves, carrot, beetroot, tom, cue), pkt crisps
S - 5 dates, 2 walnuts, raw broccoli
F - Black coffee, 2 Black tea, glass of wine, 1L water, glass of milk
E - 7,800 steps

Sorry to jump on this wonderful thread but first many congratulations on your achievement so far and secondly, are you going it alone or going to group? I have the books and am trying to decide my next move forward. Your thread has really motivated and inspired me.
 
Sorry to jump on this wonderful thread but first many congratulations on your achievement so far and secondly, are you going it alone or going to group? I have the books and am trying to decide my next move forward. Your thread has really motivated and inspired me.
Thank you for visiting me. I went to a group a longgg time ago but going it alone as it suits me better. I use the basic principles but make adjustments to suit my body and lifestyle. To start with you have to be disciplined until you find your way. Initially, my portions were very big but gradually and naturally they reduced - my tummy has shrunk and if I try to over eat, it starts hurting. I don't deny myself of anything but limit my intake. There are days that I feel really hungry and want to binge - I allow myself to do that and suddenly realise that I on't want to and stop.

You really have to experiment and see what suits you best - we are all different and our lifestyle is different so "one size does not fit ".

I am here if you need any help.
