Was down 1lb this morning at WI. Little bit disappointed tbh. I worked out 4 times in the gym and went walking d other days. Didn't use all my weeklies either. Suppose a pound is a pound but for first week back on it I thought it would be a bit more. Well done everyone who's down and best of luck to those still waiting for WI. Onwards and downwards people!
Sometimes it can take time for your body to catch up on the exercise. It'll more than likely be reflected in next weeks WI. The optimal loss is 1-2 lbs a week as its more likely to stay off in the long run

Thanks. I'm aiming for a lb a week that way if they're bigger great if not I'll still hopefully have 19lbs off come my holidays. Good luck tomorrow!
Thanks! I was in the 11's back in October but then exams and Christmas happened :rolleyes: I'm just happy to be back in the 11's now. You'll get into the 11's don't worry. The slower the better I've found as it's less likely to pile back on I only put on 4lbs during the last 2 months, before it probably would have been a stone :eek:Was down 1lb this morning at WI.

Well done both of you! Anything that is a minus on the scales should be celebrated. And ShindyB, all your hard work in the gym may show in your weight loss next week.
I'm like you Eabhabear, aiming for a pound a week to be down 2 stone by my birthday in July. Sounds like so much so fast, but broken down is so much more manageable!0 -

Thats me after the EA active game, works every were which I like want to get the dance one for wii as well thats good the scales are similar good to know for tomorrow!I have a Wii fit at home. At the moment it's showing me with around a 2kg loss. I have my weigh in tonight and I have worked out going by the Wii I should be down around 3.5 give or take. But again, I'm not sure how accurate it is.... I will find out tonight and I will let you know....
Not too confident though tbh!
good luck and keep me posted!

im off for my WI now....
left work early and just jogged 7k on the wii fit in 30 mins.... jesus I think im going to pass out...
the Wii has me down another half a kilo ... i really don't think its accurate but hopefully I will be down a few.
I have saved a few points for a treat tonight if i do well....
Well done to all those weighed in already... 1lb a week can be disappointin for some people... (not me, i would take a half a pound a week...
) but i remember my old leader bringing in what looked like a peat heat pack that weighed 1lb and we were all shocked coz it weighed so much.
Fingers Crossed!!!!

First W.I at WW and thrilled to say I lost 5lbs! :eek:
I did 7 walks and 1 swim and stuck to 30 points instead of 33 and only used 10 of my weeklys.. I'm so glad I stuck to it this week as it's so motivating to do well this week again!
Next week I will use my all 33 points and as much weeklies as I need.. and hope I loose again.
I have a long way to go (45lbs more) but for the first time in a long time I feel in control.
Top tips that worked for me:
1)Planning
2)Tracking
3)Exercising
4)Soups
5)Fruit salads!!
6)myot.ie (Operation Transformation) app
Well done to every one who had a loss 0 -

It's great! I love it! We'll have to keep it up now! It really is motivating to be following people that are in the same boat I have to say! I haven't been on boards or anything before & it's great! 0 -
Some pre prepared fruit salad! Some pineapple, apples, kiwi, pear and frozen raspberries (cheaper!). This makes 3-4 big portions and keeps me v happy!
Looks great Foundry! I hadn't really thought of making a fruit salad, I've just been having the usual, apples, satsumas & bananas. You can have so much more variety in a salad!
Thanks a million for the comment on my blog too! Exciting0 -
