Still going

It's been a while since I posted anything on here so just wanted to say hi and share with you that I am still on my weight loss journey.

I started "making better choices" in March 2016 and as a result I have lost just under 3st. It seems like I've been stuck at my present weight for ages but I am not letting myself be demotivated - I just keep trying because I know that it will be worth it.

I recently bought a Fitbit and find that this really encourages me to exercise especially since I made friends in the Fitbit community as we can challenge each other on a daily basis to exercise and support each other to achieve our goals. I haven't exercised so much in years and have found that I am much more competitive that I thought I was. I am going out for walks on a daily basis just because I want to do more steps than my Fitbit friends (something I would not normally do at all).

Good luck to you all on your continued weight loss journey and keep making t right food choices - you know what they are!!

It's great to hear that you're still going strong, Big_Mama and well done for almost losing 3 stone! That's fantastic! :)

Would you like a 2 stone badge, because maybe your competitive streak would push you to swapping it for a 3 stone badge? :)

Keep up the great work! :)

Fantastic job with your weight loss so far, and keeping up with it for so long - it's good to hear that it is possible! I was interested to hear about the fitbit too and how you use it and how it has helped, as I don't have one, but was thinking about getting one.

Well done for keeping going. Its hard when that annoying number doesn't move despite our best efforts. Congratulations on the exercise routines, thats a great achievement in itself.
