Spooky halloween challenge

Well done to everyone on their great losses over the last week -you're all doing really great! Just remember diminishingreturns the body needs more cals in winter to keep warm so don't worry too much and enjoy your hols!!
1lb loss for me this week so still a way to go to fulfil this challenge in the next 10 days but it does mean that I have now reached my original goal weight so am feeling mightily chuffed!! :)
I have decided though to push on for another 4-6lbs I think but am not going to kill myself doing it if you know what I mean. If it comes of at 1/2lb a week with lots of sts in between so be it!
Good luck to everyone who hasn't weighed this week yet too!

I need some serious motivation talks and ideas of how to make my weight loss kick off again its seriously getting me down now I wanted to be finished for in 3 weeks time but I'm never losing 9lbs in that time theres no way. I have this tight fitting corset dress I need to wear and I'm not going to be able to move/breath/wear it at this rate.

Hi Guys,

Only a 2lb loss for me this week, im happy though, as its TOTM this week, so hopefully im in for another loss next Mon, I'm gonna continue with the 1000 cal diet.

I only managed to exercise once last week, so I wanna do it at least 3 times this week....does anyone think it makes a difference if for example I exercised Fri, Sat and Sun rather than spread it through the week?? Weekends seems to be the only time I'm motivated enough!

Any advice would be great.
;)

Just keep at it vodevil - I SO know where you're coming from!In the last couple of months as I have nearly reached my goal weight it's been such a struggle to stay motivated without just throwing in the towel and saying 'well it's only a few pounds - it'll make no difference to how I look anyway.' It's all about control I suppose and sets you up in good stead for maintenance.P.S I really don't think I look any different now than when I was a stone heavier.......bummer!!!!!
 
Oh ladies!

posted yesterday after weighing on Sunday. Weighed again this morning and I've lost another 2 lbs! Which means I made the challenge!

I've found the last 6 weeks or so really difficult. It's felt as though I've been eating nothing, exercising loads and not losing anything. I've almost felt like giving up. I've got to remind myself that calorie counting DOES work - We've just got to give it long enough and keep going. We'll get there!

Think i should mention as of Saturday i will not have the net as i need to get it transferred to my own house once BT line is switched on. I will try weigh in and then get online at work but i try not to go online at work but i cannot miss out on the last week of this challenge!!

Any ideas on next challenge and the next date for it? x
 
Defo great idea, gives a while to get sorted too :)
Ok ets all go for it this week and finish this challenge off in style then i can set a jingly christmas one up :)
 
Sounds good! Well done on your amazing loss last week too!

Sorry guys havn't been taking part, I have been maintaining weight as I'm due to have an op on some ovarian cysts, it's no big deal at all, but the doc told me to hold the weight loss for the mo til after the op. Be back for the xmas challenge tho!

You are all doing so well love to you all xx
 
Hope the op goes ok serafyn and look forward to seeing you back when you're feeling better!
 
Hope the op goes OK, best of luck x

Forgot to update this thread, was a STS this week for me! Fingers crossed I lose a bit this week and reach my target

STS this week. I have bumped my cal intake to 1100 now as im in my (hopefully) last stone, depending if the belly goes and looks better so i felt i should gradually up them.
