Weekly weigh in

Time to go public with these, as part of my not-really-a-resolution. This loss is largely due to the fact the last weigh-in was on my mum's scales, which weigh a bit heavier than mine do, so it doesn't really count. When I set the current goal it was to lose half a stone, and instead I carried on gaining. Time to turn that around.

This week I lost 4¾lb

Over the past 37 months of dieting I've gained 0st 8½lb, which amounts to -4% of my starting weight - my current weight is 15st 10½lb

My average loss a week is lb

My target weight is 14st 7lb. I am currently 1st 3½lb away from this.

My current BMI is 35.21; my target BMI is 32.43.

Well done for starting the turn around! I had to have a reining in moment two weeks before Christmas because the christmas eating had already started and I was already gaining before the festivities began! I consequently lost 1.5lb the tuesday after christmas, but I expect to have regained that next tuesday - and the 'back to it' starts properly next wednesday (all uneaten food of the too tempting nature will be taken to work and fed to the blokes there on the Tuesday!).

Dunno if you're interested, but SW are launching the second half of their 'new plan' this week. The first half was last year when they added the second A choice but upped the sins on lots of convenience food (and renamed them 'syns' *&). This time they're adding two more approaches other than green/red to choose from, one is stricter, one is more relaxed.

I'm sticking with SW till I get to target (6.5lbs from here, to my new improved realistic target of 10st 7lb, not counting any xmas gains) and then I want to try just eating 'healthy'. I've tried that before and I can stay the same on it, but never seem to lose, and so I thought I'd stick with SW which gives me enough structure to stick to and lose until then, iyswim.

Like the graphs by the way *&)

Very brave of you - good luck! (-: Dawn's out at the gym now, for the first time in ages.

I've decided that this is it for me, too. Children and depression have made losing weight difficult, but I've decided that it's now or never. Some things just have to take priority this year.

I'll be here to cheer you on! :-)
