A little bit late...

but I need to weigh in for Monday - and I don't see any weigh in blog.

Weight (lbs): 170 >>> 168.4

Waist (in): 39.5 >>> 39

BMI: 28.29 >>> 27.96

So a loss of 1.6 lbs this week.

Last Monday I tried a better style of running. Must have overdone it as it is still painful to run for longer than a minute. So I have changed my gym workout and am now using the cross trainer and exercise bike, with a fast walk as a warm up.

Also this week I went skiing on Saturday, which probably was the cause of the lower weight loss, as I only ate around 1250 calories - and my body grabbed onto them all!

Happy with my loss any way though - right direction and still quite a large amount for me.

Pleased with waist size as it had been static for a few weeks.

Targets for this week:

Build up my walking so I can get back to running.

Increase the amount of time spent on the cross trainer to 15 mins per session.

Use the weights in the gym at least once this week.

Lose 2lbs in weight, this will take me comfortably under 12 stone, and mean I will have lost just over 11lbs in 6 weeks, halfway through the plan.

And to finish - my loss this week takes me to a total loss of 9.2lbs. This is now over 5% of my original weight and one major milestone hit

That's an amazing loss for a week! What I wouldn't give... Ah well, focusing instead on my waist size so I'm not jealous of other people's losses.

Congratulations on the 5% milestone!!

Well done not just for this weeks loss, but also the overall loss. I am just about in the same place as you but a good few weeks behind. I look forward to saying ' comfortably under 12 stone' which feels a very long way at the moment. But really good to hear others achievments

ps - like you i looked for the monday weigh - may blogger is on hols.

I also missed the Monday weigh-in opportunity, so will add mine here. Well done to everyone on your weight and waist size losses! My waist size seems to be static, but my weight is coming down gradually.

Last Monday, I was 14 stone 9.4lb and this Monday I was 14 stone 7.6lb.

Hoping to lose more this week - would like to lose 1.5 pounds, as a goal.

Good luck to everyone for this week!

how do you get on the monday weigh in blog. been thinking about starting this for ages - start on mon and fall off wagon by tues (like today with 4 slices of bread as snack. Am now 11st 12lb which is heaviest for over 5 years - and has crept up quite quicky in last couple of months from hovering around 11st (which is still too heavy).
