Round 2 Weigh in Week 9

A bit ahead of schedule because I don't think I'l have time to weigh in tomorrow. I've lost another pound this week putting me at 11 stone 2. That's a grand total of 30 pounds lost My next mini goal is to get below the 11 stone mark and I'd like to do that in the next couple of weeks. I checked my BMI and it was down to 28.5. I know that is still very overweight but for me that seems low so I've been feeling pretty positive about that. Some of my clothes have been feeling pretty loose lately so I'm going to take my measurements this weekend to see what changes have been going on there.

I have a couple of meals out to contend with this week. Generally my tactic for this is to be extra good during the day and then treat myself in the evening (without going OTT). This seems to generally limit the damage and as long as I get straight back on track the next day I won't put on weight. I also find exercising before a meal out can help.

Well done for another pound lost Rachel and of course, a tremendous 30lb total.

I'm so envious of your weight, my goal is 11 stone, but I'm 7 1/2st away from it

Fingers crossed you're into the 10's in the next couple of weeks

You will make it eventually moreless but it is important to focus on the smaller victories along the way as well as the end goal. That's why I have a series of smaller milestones to keep me motivated! It has taken me 10 months to lose 30 pounds but I've enjoyed the whole journey! Try to focus on how far you have come rather than how far you have to go

Thank you for your encouragement!!
