Weekly weigh in - Fridays

**** I shouldn’t have had that glass of water before I stepped on the scales - 0.7kg lost which is great but that brings me to exactly 90.0kg when my interim goal is to get out of the 90s in a downward direction.

Next week!
Yup
 
With your circumstances that's a really healthy weight loss. Too much too soon leaves saggy skin. My problem... but better saggy skin than skin full of blubber Well done you
 
Thanks Ian, yes the support in this thread is such a help, I am very grateful too. All the best for next week!
 
That is a good loss over that period of time and likely to stay off. I have been on your stressful diet these past couple of weeks, too, I hope things settle down for you soon.

Yes, so true and yeah, I would rather have saggy skin than an unhealthy body.
 
A non-scale victory today.
My rsi has flared up in my typing thumb so put my wrist brace on. It was huge! Had to move all the straps to minimum position. Might still have saggy tummy but wrists are skinny.

That is a great NSV MrsA2! My wrists have slimmed down as well, pity my tummy and bottom still haven't yet, LOL!
 
Lost another 2lb this week - takes me to 15st 13lbs. Still a good way to go but I'm on track.
Wow, well done, that brings you into the 15s, you are in good company as there are a few of us here with a way to go. It is great that you are on track, we just have to get through this holiday period without faltering now!
 
Well, I lost 1lb this week, which after the last couple of weeks, I am totally fine about. I am fighting a bit of a cold, so I have been trying to eat more healthy foods, but still stay within a (sort of) decent calorie range.

Thank you, made me laugh! Well done Mrs Skinny wrists.
 
its been 2 weeks since i last posted, in that time i have been going up 1lb and then back down again, never though i would get any further but for the last 2 mornings i have been 15st 12lbs, so that is another 1lb off and a total weight lost since staring the diet of 6st 9lbs,, hopefully i can build on that over the next week.

Today I weigh 77.9 kg, a loss this week of .7kg. 20.6kg, or 41 family Christmas puddings... Next week I expect to have put weight on, only from volume of food, not all bad choices. However... it's a minefield. Good luck to those of us celebrating this season, it's tough when those around us are partaking of such tasty treats and we're on the side lines. Keep strong, we're in this together. Merry Christmas, see you on the other side!.
 
Lost another 2lb this week bring h down to 15st 11lbs! That's 9lb overall since December 1st when my Hba1c was 101.

I have an app that gives me a rolling average based on all the finger tests I take and if it's to be believed, I've brought it down to 54.3. I know it's only a guess but it's a helluva lot better than my actual HbA so I'm happy.

That's good going, given the time of year and the lurgy.
 
Luckily, I've never liked Christmas pudding. But I'm going to have to force myself to have some New York cheesecake over the Christmas. Well done on your loss - it's never easy at this time of year.
