Well done to all the Sunday posters. I wasnt going to weigh today as I am using different scales but a quick check at the beginning of the week put me on the same as usual scales. I feel this is my group and you have shown me how important it is not to chicken out. I have made myself a promise that I will post whatever the outcome and you are invited to hunt me down if I try to escape!
Out of interest I just went back to the beginning of this thread to see who was still around - you and Why_D were the first 2 I recognised!! Very inspirational.
Honey39 said:Good morning!!!! This is my 83rd weigh in on a Sunday, and am delighted to say that I've lost 2.5 lbs. Woo hoo! It's been a tough week because we are being restructured at work, and I am applying for a promotion or a demotion, so it's all a bit stressful, and I'm working flat out on my application and prepping for interview. So I am so so so pleased that I haven't taken my eye off the main goal. Losing weight is so important to me, it remains my top priority.
So yeah, lost last week's gain and another little half pound. That's good.
Well done to everyone who's weighed in - I can honestly and hand on heart say that it's NOT the numbers that count, it's the turning up and being accountable week after week. And losing weight steadily and slowly really works, I think both Why_D and I would say that small regular losses build up into a massive amount quite quickly.
I also think that losing weight slowly means it stays off. I read blogs by people who lose 10 lbs one week, put on 12 lbs in two weeks. I love Slimming World, I love the fact that my gains are as minor as my losses, which isn't as scary.
Anyway, well done everyone, and good luck to those still to weigh in - huge pats on the back all around...

but i agree with Honey, you'll have good weeks, bad weeks, weeks where you think you deserve more or weeks where you think you've had luck on your side... but if you stick to plan (for the most part - enjoy life - don't hold back!) you'll lose..

Well done to all this week, and let’s hope for a good week next week.
