Lost 1.3kg this week. That's a total of 40.3kg gone now - getting very close to a healthy weight now

Thought I might aim to get my BMI under 25 by half term - that gives me three more weeks to lose another 2.5kg.

You can do it. For sure.
Well done to date too.

183lbs for me. 13lbs to go: I haven't lost any weight this week, but I'm feeling OK about getting back into weight-loss mode after some pretty serious bingeing. I've gone back to eating 1000 cal or less since Wednesday and I haven't had any alcohol: hopefully, the weight should start dropping soon.

Hello all. 1.8 kgs gone for me this week. Now down to just under (by about an ounce) 12st. Havnt been this weight since my 30s.

A disappointing 120.30kgs this morning. Added 0.40kgs from monthly Bl##dy hormones! Too much potato too, maybe. Only high was last night as forgot insulin pre-food but took as soon as I remembered. Fbg was back to 5.2s phew! Need to do more low carbing from now on.

Oh the joys of being a woman! The inconvenience, the cost, the pain and the weight. Next time round I think I will be a cat.

Licking my wounds from my small add after hormonal chaos this month. Insulin need raised abit more than period days. Will have to remember for next month or 2 months time, it seems.
Hoping back to losing weight but upset tum has detered me from metformin taking. Back to 'norm' today (at last).
Here's to fingers crossed for a loss on friday. Goodluck everyone.

Good morning.

Lost 1.2kg this week which takes me below 70kg and also to the 5 stone weight loss mark (my scales only weigh in kg, but I’m more conversant with pounds/stone so having 2 sets of milestones to track helps with motivation).

Really pleased and getting close to the initial target loss I set - 13 pounds to go!

 

[Butterfly1960]

Good grief!! How on earth can it tell you all that??
Think I will get some. The ones I have allow me to lose half a stone by rocking back on my heels. Its nice to lose 7lbs by just moving a little bit but I fear not very accurate.

Morning all. Lost 1.1kg this week, very happy with that.

Off to visit my Dad and his wife for the first time since April this weekend - will see if they notice how much smaller I am!

 

[Butterfly1960]

Lost 1.1kg this week - that's 38kg off in total - (within a pound of breaking the 6 stone lost barrier!)

 

[Butterfly1960]

I've put on 0.75lbs. Not much I know but I've been struggling this week.

I ate something I really shouldn't have last night and I'm paying for it in elevated blood sugar (not silly high at 7.2 but higher than normal and/or recommended) and dreaded tiredness for no reason (other than the carbs).

Not especially happy with myself (mainly because of the effects rather than weight which is minimal, I know)

 

[Butterfly1960]

0.9Kg this week taking me down to 105.7Kg, not happy have noticed an invrease in portion size in line with increase in exercise, trade offs!

 

[Butterfly1960]

I'm down 0.8 of a pound to 148.2 lbs today. I seem to be sticking at around 150 lbs give or take a pound or two.

Hi @Prem51
Not familiar with weights in lb but if I've done my sums right.... 150lb is about 10 st 7lb ? I'm not quite sure about kg either.... My brain works in old imperial measurements!
I'm new to this thread... Don't use my phone app very often!
My GP weighed me on 18th Sept at 74kg..... Which I was pleased with cos less kgs than in August 76kg but didn't know what it was in st lb !!!!
Hope you've reached your ideal weight goal

121.80kg this morning with water retention. So 0.10kgs or half a pound loss but IF I can get rid of water bed tummy I'll be lighter. Maybe next week! I'll stay optimistic, for now.
Still able to decrease insulin units due to hypos.

Yes I know that water retention plays havoc with my weight! Good luck!
