Been feeling a bit off-colour most of this week, and my CGM has been all over the place (not due to carbs). So whether that's an excuse or not, I put on a pound this week.
I'm so pleased for you. To celebrate, I (badly) made a card for you. Very well done!I am very, very happy to report that after a 1.5lb loss this week, I have now lost exactly 100lbs!! I have still a way to go, but I am sticking with it. Currently, I have started to run (very slowly and only a little bit) and also I am now doing some gentle, light weight lifting, hoping to keep my metabolism up.
Hehehe, I love it - thanks Ian!I'm so pleased for you. To celebrate, I (badly) made a card for you. Very well done!

Well done on the big weight loss. I have been in a lot of pain from my spine this week. Hence have not slept for three nights. Me and not sleeping is not good at all. Sleeping is the only way I recover.I am very, very happy to report that after a 1.5lb loss this week, I have now lost exactly 100lbs!! I have still a way to go, but I am sticking with it.

@filly I am pleased you have lost 1.2lbs, but I am sorry you are not eating, are you poorly? I hope you feel better soon.
Sorry you are off colour, too, @IanBish that will be impacting both your BG levels, which I am certain impacts our weight. I hope you are feeling better very soon as well.
Maybe thump those scales, @MissMuffett see if that gets them moving again! (I may be dating myself here a little bit, but that used to work for the television, back in the day)
Welcome back @EllieM it seems you have figured out the art of maintaining and that is very hard. I am glad to see you here again and good luck with some results soon.
Have a good week everyone and thanks again for the lovely support and encouragement - you are all so kind.
Sorry, I seem to have missed this. I'm feeling better today, but my CGM expired this morning. I still have another Libre in the cupboard waiting for me to stick on though.Sorry you are off colour, too, @IanBish that will be impacting both your BG levels, which I am certain impacts our weight. I hope you are feeling better very soon as well.

Since last Friday: +2.87lb (+1.3kg)
Since the 8th of Jan: -21.6lbs (-9.83kg)
So, have had a rise in the past 2 weeks running (3 and a bit lb/1.5kg in total in 14 days.)
I think things after the initial massive weight loss are starting to even out a bit…
Maybe try some experiments with weighing heavy items separately and then with you carrying them to see if the results match? 5.9kg in a week does seem like a lot to me, do you notice your clothes being looser?Erm… got on the scales early this week and not sure if they’ve gone crackers as I weighed three times in different spots in case the floor was wonky.
71.8kg this weekOK, back after a long break, depressed by my total inability to reduce my weight (though it hasn't increased).
72kg this week

In any case, congrats on the loss so far, whatever it is.
A gain of 0.8lbs I’m following in your footsteps @IanBish
@ravensmitten Most Tesco and Boots have scales if there are any near you so you can check your weight against your scales?
