September Weight Loss Challenge - Lose that Lard!!

[Julie2011]

Brilliant loss Julie. Is that just from half the week? Are you finding a mid week weigh motivating?

Yes, I weighed in at the weekend and this is since then. I find it motivating when I lose weight but if I haven't lost I feel a bit down sometimes. However because I am 100% on Exante Total Solution now I need to weigh twice a week to keep me on the straight and narrow. Otherwise I have little cheats, mad things like pickles, horseradish sauce, marmite or pesto straight out the jar, basically anything savoury and it really mucks up the weight loss. I really need to drop a stone before I go away for a wedding next month so the September Weight Loss Challenge is a real motivator.

Fab losses!

 

[Julie2011]

Yaaaay well done Cloud! *big hugs*

It's my official WI tomorrow but tbf I'm not hopeful, with new job celebrations, starting new job and then a sickness bug this week has been a bit 'meh'. I'll be happy for a STS! xx

Some weeks are better than others, so don't get stressed about it. I'm feeling really low as I had to have my much loved cat put to sleep today. I fostered her from one day old and then adopted her and she was so loving and sweet. Only six years old, but there were no more treatment options. It's heart breaking. Things like that knock me off plan, maybe not the same day but a few days later, but it's all about putting the gains or plateaux behind you and getting back on plan.

Reporting a 1lb loss for me today. Hoping I don't mess up next week with stress eating - I have an exam on Wednesday and have a terrible habit of dealing with the pressure by eating!

So sorry for your loss Julie x

Thank you. It's so hard, and happened so fast. I'm really devastated. She was such a lovely, affectionate girl right to the end. She developed FIP after a vaccination.

 

[Julie2011]

Only 3lb loss for me this week, which is not a lot for a VLCD. 2lb mid week and 1lb today. I can't say I'm surprised because I haven't been very active or drunk enough water over the past few days. I have stuck to Exante TS packs but my heart just isn't in it. I had to have my cat put to sleep on Friday. She was the sweetest, most loving cat I've ever had.

I hope everyone does well on their weight loss this week.

3lb is great especially considering the tough week you've had x

 

[dextermummy]

Hey guys, sorry I've not been about much the past few days. Work's been stressful (my manager's off so I've been boss lady) and tiring. I've been about reading on and off but not felt up to engaging.

I am most definitely still on the wagon and looking forward to (and as always apprehensive about) weigh in tomorrow.

Well done to everyone still plugging along and some fab losses this week.

Good luck to evryone weighing tomorrow x

So I've got my low Lt week and only lost 1.6 bringing me to 4.2lbs so far in September- hoping for next week to make up for it..

Well done! That's still 1.6lbs less than you were last week, and you'll easily make it up next week - don't let this bring down your motivation, you're doing so well, and you'll get there in time xx
