Weekly weigh in - Fridays

[LeafyArts]

69.15kg (10st 12lb) which is down about 2lb over the course of last week and down about 18kg (about 3 stone) since I was diagnosed in March this year. BMI is now 22.4 - down from 28.4 when I was diagnosed.

Wow, well done, that is fabulous!

Not Friday, but the first of the month, and I’ve decided to only weigh myself once a month. 75kg, which is down three kgs since May and 9kg over the last year. Goal is getting back down to 70kg over the next year.

Once a month is a good idea, it is less stressful that way. You have done really well and that must feel so good! I am sure you will manage your goal next year.

Not so good. Up again but by 5oz. 215.4 Not doing so well and trying not to overeat.

Hugs, Filly, sorry you are struggling. That 5oz will come off in no time.

I had a really tough week and my stress levels have been through the roof, but I still managed to lose 1.5lbs this week and I didn't resort to my usual coping mechanisms, which are sweet things and bread, so I am very pleased.

72.6kg this week (had a brief foray under 72kg but a cataract op meant I both exercised less and drank more alcohol as a pain relief).

And 72,2kg, very happy to be going down, albeit slowly

285.1lb, down 3lb. Was 326lb beginning of January,it's coming down really slowly and inconsistently ,sometimes I think I've had a great week and lose 1lb, this week didn't think was so good and lost 3lb.still it's going in right direction though not as quick as I'd like.

Wow, that is great progress and yes, our bodies are funny things when it comes to weight loss - always full of surprises!

I see your food postings on the other thread, doesn't seem hardly any carbs. Are you perhaps undereating and your body has gone into survival mode and is hanging on to whatever it can get?

Trouble is after my knee replacement I hoped I would be more active. So that and trying not to overeat for me. I know I am not undereating. I really don't need too much to eat to lose weight. It is very frustrating. I track everything. I am only 5ft 2.5 as it is. Did so well for quite a while. Thanks for the thought.

stayed the same!

Well done everyone

How are you doing MrsA2?

Well done everyone

Well, I always feel that is always better than a gain, hopefully more will come off next week.

stayed the same!

Well done everyone

But you didn't put any on!

I didn't post as I only lost 1lb. Still haven't achieved that elusive 2 stone weight loss yet. But I'm a little less impatient now.

Hey, a pound off is still a pound off - well done Ian!

How are you doing MrsA2?

Stayed the same

Stayed the same

I reckon if I creep down one week and then gain less the next week it's still a win, so staying the same is definitely a win for me...

I always reckon that slow weight loss is more sustainable? (That's my story and I'm sticking to it. )
