    Week 15 weigh in: +0.5lb total loss 13.5lb

    The fact I only put on half a pound is a win. Ate about half a dozen Krispy Kreme donuts, bunsen, thunder road etc. now not all on the one day but still.

    I'm at a 3 day wedding this weekend so I'm hoping for a maintain week but if it's a gain I'll have well enjoyed it.

    I'm stopping numbering my weekly weighins because I'm hoping that this is a long journey and not just a few week thing.

    Weigh in: +0.5 lb Total loss 13lb

    I ate drank and was merry so it's not unexpected. Hoping to see a change on the scales next week even if its just half a pound so I get the kick I need.

    I’m totally disillusioned after a visit to my gp yesterday. He weighed me and said I need to lose between 2 and 3 stone which is devastating. I lost a pile of weight a few years ago but a fair bit has crept back on so now I have to start all over again. How is it that weight is so hard to lose and yet so easy to gain? I started logging my food on My Fitness Pal again today and I’m dying for some chocolate but will resist 🥲.

    I lost 3 st last year but have already found one of them again. Busy times at the moment but summer break starts in a couple of weeks so can focus properly then, try to lose a bit before my hols.

    Thats 7kg down.I know that BMI isn't an accurate reading of a person's health but if I manage to shift 5 more pounds I'll be officially "normal".

    Ooops. I know why this gain happened but I don't really have an excuse.I wasn't out and about I just went off plan and ate whatever took my fancy. Not even that mad about it but I'll get my act back together.

    Don’t beat yourself up about it @Aisling(",), sometimes you just need to go with your body. I’ve decided to only weigh myself every 4 weeks as I’m at a stage in life where weight loss slows down and I can’t walk very far at the moment as I’ve aggravated my knee and am having physio. I know my losses will be small but I have to think of the bigger picture.

    Weigh in: maintain Total loss 14lb

    Stomach was in rag order the last week so I had little to no motivation to cook or even prepare fruit/veg as snacks. Not surprised considering I was just grabbing convenience foods.

    4 week weigh in today and down 3 lbs which isn’t great but as I’ve bot been able to walk at all I have to accept this will be slow 😢.

    Happy mother fudging Thursday 😎😎

    3 lb off my next target. I'm away the end of June/start of July so I'm not worrying about it then and hopefully I'll hit it by the end of July. I know my progress is slow but I'm trying to be realistic and sustainable
