Weight Reducing Diet

I have finally got to grips with my weight reducing diet. After just 4 weeks, I have lost 13 and a half pounds! Annoyingly, just half a pound short of 1 stone, but still, real progress at last. I usually start losing my motivation after 3 or 4 weeks, but this result has really given me hope. One stone down, just 9 more to go!

Thank you IndigoBlue61. Yes, I'm pretty certain that badge will be mine at next weigh in. Here's to the next stone! (I find it less daunting dealing with one stone at a time. It sounds much better than 9 stone).

Hi CatlinD! You have made a very positive step joining HealthUnlocked. I am quite new on here myself. I don't know how big your mountain is to climb, but you have already started with your first step. I have another 9 stone plus to lose, but I find it is far less daunting if I concentrate on just one stone at a time. Welcome to HealthUnlocked and I wish you the very best of luck. Do let me know how you get on.

Thank you so much Cressid, for your very kind comments. You are right, it is different this time. Positive comments like yours only motivates me more. I am no longer alone with my negative self worth. I have purpose now and a whole bunch of new friends to share my ups and downs.

umm, yes different this time

missgemimi . In the past I've joined S/W, W/W etc etc in the later years with no success, in fact the first 3 weeks I weighed when trying to lose weight for my own wedding I put on each week! What?????? I know crazy! This feels much more energised and positive, I like it, good luck! 🍀

Well done. How did you do it, how did it work for you? I'm just started to count my calories and do more exercise. I feel already my relationship with food is changing for the better.
