I think my target is too high based on my current losses but I've not given up that I'm going to get a whoosh for a few weeks. Live in hope...

I have added myself and given myself 6 weeks to lose the last 14lbs. i usually lose about 10lbs a month (not the usual stone) so bear with me!

C'mon the final stone brigade - we can do this! the end is within our reach, we look slim, we look gorgeous, we are the envy of our friends, we no longer have to look longingly at those skinny minnies in topshop but can browse the rails with pride, we have jawlines now, we have ankles (no more cankles), we have rings that fit fingers (goodbye sausage roll fingers!), we no longer have to take photos from the 'high above' angle, goodbye wide fit shoes, goodbye back fat and thunder thighs.... so lets do better and get that last stone off and be even more stunning!!!! this thread has FIRED me up for today (she says as she gulps down water and grosser than gross choc shake with lumps in it!!!). lets keep this thread on the main forum every day so we can all log in and check on each other. its hard for us, we are so near and yet so far, and damn that blasted head hunger, and those evil ('you look fine now' thoughts).... and HELLO GOAL!!!!!!!

Thanks for the welcome lawyergirl. :)

Leeds, great post. :)

Losing these last remaining lbs is so slow for me - last week l only lost a lb. I know l've just got to be patient and stick with it, but it's hard when you don't see the results on the scales or the tape measure. I've tried doing more exercise, upping the calories from 810 to 1000, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. I will NOT give up, l WILL get there at some point. Any suggestions to get the scales moving greatly appreciated.

Disney - maybe you're at one of those weights where your body sticks for a while and then you get a whoosh. Do you know what I mean? Shouldn't you be on 810 now with your BMI anyhow?

If I knew how to speed up the weight loss, I'd tell you in an instant but I'm really struggling this time around as well. My losses have been slow from the beginning.

I can't see the weight loss speeding up but definitely sticking it out until March 25. I know I'll have had enough by then and will start going back up the plans - again!!
 
Hi I have 6lb left to goal, can I please join. I am moving up the plans and i'm on the 1200 at the moment so slow losses but I am happy with them.
 
Thanks lawyergirl, you are probably right - maybe l'm experiencing a plateau. Yes l'm on 810, went up to 1000 briefly as l was getting bored with 810 & the losses being low, l didn't gain weight on 1000, but didn't lose quicker either. I guess l'll just have to persevere. Maybe the remaining lbs will come off all at once, LOL, l wish.
 
Zoe - welcome!

Disney - I'm thinking a leg amputation at this point. I'll let you know how much I lose when I do it.

I was looking at some people's BMIs and some people are aiming to go quite low down the scale. I'm fairly muscley so am not aiming to go very low.
 
great post leeds, why is your choc shake lumpy? I blitz mine in the blender, (with half the amount of water= the top up with hot water from the kettle, its lovely just like hot chocolate) I was blitz it all cold then warming in the microwave but saw a post on here saying you shouldn't.

Disney, know what you mean about the slow weight loss, I think thats what got me down last year when I was 9 lbs off goal, I ended up cheating, just stick with it.
 
lawyergirl, you've made me laugh - much appreciated. :)

Trisha, thanks for your support too.

Hops into forum ;)

You are right Disney. We can and will do this.

The size 12 jeans now fit. Happy! It's one of the things I hate and love about this diet. Clothes go from tight to fitting to baggy almost overnight sometimes.

I am having one of those days when I want to eat. I am not hungry, I know that. I just want to eat. 24 days to go.

On a lawyer forum I am on, there's a girl who is also losing weight that I don't really like. She is a few inches taller than me but has a weight loss goal the same as mine. Last week we lost as much as each other. I hope I beat her. :p
