First weight loss achieved

9 Replies

Well, I have had a good week, Have cut out as much sugar as possible but mainly stuck to what I normally eat, I have got back on my Wii fit, (not a pretty sight) and generally have a little more energy. Managed two dog walks this week, without getting soaked. I have also kept a food diary and a daily record of my weight. Got new weigh scales coming today, which are better than my old ones and will keep a better record.

Start weight 10st 4

Today 10st 2.6

Not a lot but a good start, onward and upward.

That's right :) If you click on Write, you create a new post.

Click on the link and you'll see the opening post, where all is explained. Then Reply to today's host, Joanney69, and give a few encouraging words to some of your fellow team members :)

And that's a very good start, don't play it down :)

Well done thats a great weight loss. I agree with you about sugar, I have found it best to avoid it at all costs, hoping that my tastes will change as I have a sweet tooth and would murder for a creme egg,....maybe by next year the thought will revolt me - heres hoping! Good luck for next week.

Thanks Green26, don't think that is possible for me. I think my sweet tooth is here to stay, but as long as it is controlled I should be ok. I am going to have a small easter egg this year because I know if I don't I will crave chocolate even more so hopefully this will cure the problem and will be back on the wagon afterwards.

That’s a great result. And you have also made great headway in quitting sugar. Congratulate yourself! I’m on a similar course and I’ve had a slip up or two each week but still battling on—-like you!

Thanks Lilaclady24, I am still having the odd slip up but for once I have got rid of the all or nothing attitude and get back on the mindful eating wagon...but yes , it is a battle but one I hope to win this time!
