Deadline countdown

[Fit-ishPlum]

Holiday date is ever moving closer now! 7 weeks to go, I have come to realise that I will not achieve my size 14 wish... So I have now moved it down to size 16, to my disappointment. I think a lot emotionally had gotten in the way of my motivation lately, but now I've just got to grow some and just get on with it.

So I now have 7 weeks to try and lose 3 inches off of my waist and 3 inches off of my hips to be able to fit in to 16's (according to multiple shop size guides).

So with a target of 1-2lbs a week, would be 7-14lbs in the next 7 weeks.

I will be going more by clothes size - as to be honest at the moment that is what matters more to me - and weight loss comes with that.

Need the self discipline of the above dog!!

Think I may just wire my jaw shut for 7 weeks!!

The trouble with sizes is that they're never consistent. You can be a 14 somewhere, a 16 elsewhere, and an 18 yet somewhere else! It's all very confusing

I think you obviously need to just keep trying on clothes until you find something 14 that will fit!

You're in the same boat as me, I'm aiming to get into the 11s before my anniversary high tea the end of October so that will be at least 7 lbs gone in 10 weeks for me as well. We can do this! (Without the wiring!)

Great picture!

I think shifting the inches also comes from exercise - so blitz it with whatever exercise you can do... good luck!!!
