Weight update

[lnr]

Fresh start, joined class again tonight. New starting weight of 13 stone 5. Club ten target (10% loss) is 12 stone. Currently aim is to see how easy it is to get back to 11 stone, and then maybe aim for 10 1/2 stone as final target. Timescale is expected to be rather longer than it took me to put the weight back on, but hey, that's life. 12 weeks for the price of 10 paid up front as an incentive. *fingers crossed*.

Good luck! I am currently stuck at around 15st 5 having started at 17st. I'd like to drop another stone.

Yeah, good luck.. I've managed to shift a measly 1lb of the weight I gained on holiday this week..

*hugs* I'm sure you'll get there. And I deliberately only bought small sticks of rock so as not to be too diet-unfriendly :-)

Good luck!

I must say, though, 10¹/₂; stone sounds to me like quite a low target -- I'm hovering around 9¹/₂-10 stone and I'm 6-8" shorter than you! (And while I don't fit in a couple of my tighter skirts any more, I don't feel particularly overweight...) But good luck with getting to a point that you feel happy with.

*hugs*

I thought you were 5'1"? That's only 5 inches shorter than me. 10 1/2 stone is only 1/2 a stone below top of healthy BMI range, and only 3 lbs lower than I was in March, and I was still a largish size 12 then, so hardly wasted away. Like I say, I might well be perfactly happy with the 11 stone.

We're the same height and I was very happy at 11 stone (but it was some years ago!). I think it's nicely rounded, rather than say 9.5 stone which is frankly a little too skinny, no matter what the charts say. But then I'm a fan of curves.

Indeed. More good luck, weight loss is most definitely *not* fun.

Good luck! I've plateau'd rather after losing the pregnancy weight - although I'm now slightly-uncomfortably in a 16 as well as comfortable in an 18, the cut has to be just right thanks to post-section bulging... I wouldn't mind so much about the actual weight if I could get a little more 'trim'. Sigh. In an ideal world I'd aim for losing five stone, but I'll settle for 2.5 and better muscle tone... Lugging smallclanger about is at least building up my arm muscles. :-)
