Weekly weigh in - Fridays

Yay, that is great, Ellie! I hope it sticks too. Yes, I have noticed that if my BG is under control, then my weight is better. Interesting stuff!
 
A shocking week and it doesn't seem to be getting better. Stressful. Eating when not eating would be good.
212.2 plus 2.4lbs

I am sorry about your bad week, Filly, stress gets to me too and I do have a habit of comfort eating which I am trying hard to break! I hope things improve for you.
 
Hi everyone - how are you all doing? I managed to lose 2lbs this week which is a relief after not losing anything last week and to be honest, I have done nothing different apart from getting my steps in and eating low carb within my calorie range.

Anyway, it finally feels a bit more like spring now and I do feel that weight loss is easier in the warmer months, do you?
 
Down 1 this week. I'm going to be more proactive this week. I'm tired of bouncing around the same 2 lbs.
 
This week's average 91.2kg (last week's 92.1kg, difference -0.9kg). Trending in the right direction.

Today's weigh-in 91.4kg (last Friday's 91.7kg., -0.3kg). Daily ups and downs, slowly but trending in the right direction.

Current target 80kg. 11.4kg to go from today.

I have been quite relaxed about what I eat, mostly focused on lowering the carb content of my meals. Have now re-read Michael Moseley's The Fast 800 Keto and am planning to do Stage 1 of his approach (staying low carb at <50g a day, making sure I get at least 50g protein and keep my overall daily calories at 800-900 a day). I'm already doing carbs and protein, minus calorie restriction.Hopefully, this accelerates me to where I want to get to.

Edit: Just to add, another weight loss related uldate was that I have now discontinued Gliclazide, which can contribute to weight gain or slow weight loss. Hopefully, this gives me another boost.

I'm sorry to hear you are having a rough week and hope next week is a better one.
I also find that often, it is stress that drives me to poor food choices - either I'm too proccupied with other stuff and just don't pay attention to what I eat or use food to comfort myself. I've been lucky to have a couple of weeks off work, but Monday comes, and it will all be back - work, studies, school runs, other commitments... Haven't found a solution apart from trying to shift my mindset to where I can accept that world will happily carry on even if I do stop and take care of myself and that instead of seeing it as being selfish it is the right thing to do.
 
This week's average is 90.3kg (last week's 91.2kg, a steady difference of -0.9kg). Weight keeps trending in the right direction.

Today's weigh-in 89.9kg (last Friday's 91.4kg., -1.5kg). I can't remember time when I was below 90kg mark!

Current target 80kg. 9.9kg to go from today. If the weight loss remains stable, I should get there in 11-12 weeks.

I only half-implemented my plan to go on Fast 800 Keto. But I have been off Gliclazide for a week now.
 
Still a bit stressful and sugars not quite where I would like.

Weight down a tad. 211.3 -0.9
 
Good morning everyone - I managed to lose 2lb this week, which gets me very close to my next goal. Then I have to seriously think about my final goal.

Well done @IanBish @TheSecretCarbAddict @filly @May Mic and commiserations @Keith Saunders

I have to post and dash - I will pop back later as I see I missed some comments last week, apologies for that!
