Hi

Decided to update my journey. I started this in January and now on week 9. Myweight at the start was 12 stone. I am only 5ft 2 so that meant i was overweight. I now weigh 10 stone 9 and really enjoying this new way of eating.I wonder if I can have a different badge now. I would really like to get down to 9 and a half stone so onwards and downwards .Thanks for all the inspiring post a great forum

Why not ask for a 1 stone badge? :) That's what I do, every time I get into a new stone I request a badge with the number of stones lost! :D Well done on losing weight! I'm just about still in the 10 stones myself - I'm 10 stone 3lbs as of this morning (I'm less than 7lbs from that healthy BMI - 9 stone 11lbs!!!) I can't wait but I'm trying to maintain for a while so probably won't get there for a few months yet! :P

Well done lynvardon ! I am only 4ft 9" so know how difficult it is for us shorties! I started at 14 stone and got to 9 stone 4lbs at my lightest. I'm hovering above 10 stone just at the moment.

Whatever you are doing, keep on doing!

Well done hun. I have found that any little weight gain is more noticeable on us smaller women than those taller which is really annoying lol.

Hi

I have just started this programme, and like you I am 5ft 1 and 12 st 2😕. Can I ask you how many calories you started on, and roughly your loss a week.

I hope I can keep on track you have done really well 🎉

Thanks

Hi I started on 1400 calories at first week 1 was a good weight loss . I then checked my weight and height using the bmi calculator on the 1st page. I increased to 1500 -1572 as suggested by that. I never go under 1400 as i dont want to put my body in starvation mode by not eating enough. I have not really stopped eating anything just dont snack in the evening,I hope that helps
