WEEKLY WEIGH INS - Sundays

Yes the monitor itself sits just under my bra strap and records the whole session - means it is far more accurate than the gym machines as its based on weight, height, age etc but i don't have to put that into individual machines and it still records home and weights sessions.

I decided to have a day off the gym today - I will do my weights bench and gym ball later on - but have been studying today so feel like i have been glued to the couch.

Takeaways always seem so nice and indulgent but I think of it like a one night stand - I will only hate myself in the morning lol

Hi everyone, well was my weigh in today and I put 1/2 lb on, not to pleased but will try alot harder nxt week, wish the wind would die down then I could go out for a cycle, not alot of fun when its windy lol, hope everyone has hada better week than me

hey bugbear, dont worry 0.5lb is better than 1lb!

I have had a bit of a bad week, but hopefully i can make amends ready for sunday!! x

Hello everyone. I havent been on for a couple of weeks and my, I've got some catching up to do!! Ive lost a couple of pounds since my first post but I had a fitness test at the gym last week and I've lost 8cm and 4.5% body fat in nearly two months. Im well pleased.

Thats really great Hayley, 8cm is brilliant! I'm not the best at measuring myself but I think i've lost a bit too.

Well done Hayley

Well i'm quite pleased that i've lost 3lbs this week, considering I havn't had a great week i'm happy.

Well done Starbuck - see the chinese proves you can have a treat occasionally

God knows what my weigh ins going to be like - it's the date tonight so Im sure alcohol will be consumed !!

Try not to worry about your weight for one night, have a treat night yourself. Hope you have a great time tonight, and he's an amazing hunk!

Thanks and so do I !!!

Forgot to say I've just ordered some new scales from Amazon, so will be able to weigh in on a sunday with everyone from next week.

I know this means i'll be looking at the scales eveyday though!

Well done Hayley - 8cm is fab.

wow Starbuck 3lbs is fab - you must be well pleased with yourself - and evena sneaky wee chinese too. I know what you mean about the scales - I had to stop myself jumping on the gym ones, but nearly there for Sunday weigh in so trying to resist temptation

Stella - have a great date tonight - hope he is gorgeous and that its a great night.

Got my scales this morning, there not as good as my old ones. They tell me lots of info like my BMR and BMI and body fat and water weight, but they don't tell me how much I've lost since last weigh in. It dosn't matter to much as I make a not of my weight anyway, but I was just surprised it tells me everything apart from weight lost.

I weighed in on my new scales this morning so I can now join in on Sundays with Everyone else. I've lost another 4lbs since Friday, so that's 7lbs this week. I think it's a combination of weighing in first thing in the morning with nothing on, and also it's my TOM and I normally lose more weight once it's happened anyway.

Now I've just got the challenge of only weighing on a Sunday!

HW: 14.10 (a few years ago)
SW: 13.5 (starting weight sun 3rd May 09)
CW: 13.2
LTW: 3
GW1: 12.7

Well done 4angels, 3lbs is great!

HW: 172
CW: 162
LTW: 3
GW1:160
GW2: 150
UG: 112

HW: 13st 1lb
CW: 12st 2lb
LTW: 1lb
GW1: 12st 1lb
GW2: 11st 1lb
UG: 9st 7lb

OK so only a small loss this week but given i'm STILL sick and the most exercise I've done all week is walking to the supermarket, I'm pretty chuffed.

Now....two of my good friends got engaged yesterday and we're going for all you can eat Dim Sum for lunch in a bit to celebrate......help!

Best of luck at lunch time wonderwoman...!!! You might have to rely on superhero powers to resist going mad at an 'all you can eat' lunch I know I would!!!

Thanks starbuck for your encouragement, you sound to have done really well yourself this week!!

Can I ask is everyone's ultimate goal weight what they want to weigh to be happy with themselves or is it to have a BMI of under 25? I've set mine at the heaviest I can be to have a BMI of 25, but I'd probably feel ok being slightly heavier than this. Though its so long since I've weighed that little I can't remember what it feels like!!!

Anyhow, have a good day people!! xx

My ultimate goal weight is the heighest weight I can be within the normal BMI. I set it like that because I have large boobs, which don't disappear when I lose weight (or at least didn't last time) and when I was a size 10 I looked seriously cartoon style top heavy! I'd like to be a clothes size 12, comfortably, whatever weight that takes me to!

I set mine as the highest weight for a healthy BMI too.

i haven't lost any weight this week so i'm going to up the exercise stakes and fit in an extra run or swim next week:)


how's everyone e
else doing?

well done those of you who've had a good week weight loss wise and chin up to the rest, eat well, live well and be happy!

that's some fantastic weight loss again - well done everyone.

well I am slightly annoyed at myself but i went on the scales on Saturday and it showed 1 1/2 lbs loss - so I went to the gym after work and coupled with my morning exercises before work I burned off a total of 1006 calories - I was determined to knock it over to 2lbs - but when i checked on food focus - i had only eaten 957 calories all day - so had to eat a massive bowl of alpen to get my overall intake out of deficit lol - and you know what - I still didn't lose any more anyway lol - at least I am a bit fitter lol.

so:

HW: 22 st 2 lbs
CW: 18 st 11lbs
LTW: 1 lb
GW1: 16 st 2lbs
UG: 10 st


so a lb is still a lb - maybe my exercise will show next week - in total this week i have done almost 6 hours gym time burning 4244 calories, so I feel I have done quite well.

Well done Irnbru - fab exercising!

Well done everyone! even 1lbs is still a great loss! better -1lb than +1lb!!
