I'm about 5'6". Charts usually say that I need to weigh about 145 lbs. Some of those charts don't figure in age...which I'm not going to ask (lol)...but here's hoping you can achieve it. I was over 21 st at one point, so it is doable.

Thanks for the encouragement! I'll be 31 next month, so I'm still not old, but not as young as I used to be. I started the year weighing 204, so I've lost four pounds so far this year. It's not much, but it's a start.

I was about a month shy of 34 when I started dropping, which was in December 2011 (my birthday is late December). I am 37 now, and feel so much better now than I did then, so if you are only a month away from 31, I know you can do it.

Well done to all  Most people have watched my "weight journey" all the time I've been on Funtrivia - I think you were all there right at the beginning. But my "weight journey" started way back in August 2003, four months shy of my 30th birthday. And I'm still here, slowly and steadily losing the pounds, almost twelve years later. And if I hadn't started when I did, I am pretty sure I wouldn't be here now ...  xxx

The scale said 199.2 this morning! That's only a pound down from last week, but it's great to see a '1' at the beginning of that number. I was also sure it would go up since I didn't make it to the gym this week and didn't exact eat as healthy as I could have.

Thanks! I was going to edit that when I got on. I didn't mean it to sound like I wasn't happy about 'only' one pound...I meant that I was more excited than usually over that one little pound because of the milestone. I realized after I went back and read it that it sounded like complaining.

Up ½ pound this week to 11 st 9½ pounds, but after I was laid off Wednesday out of the blue (the location's manager was also blindsided), I can't complain.

Just realized I didn't post my weigh-in last week or this week so far! I will weigh in the morning and see what the result is. I have been busy and yesterday was the first time I had been to the gym in a few weeks, so I don't think it will be good news.

I haven't weighed myself since this past weekend, but when I weighed myself on Saturday I was at 202. The is up a few pounds from my previous post. It has been fluctuating between those two numbers lately. I'm out of town, so maybe not eating as good as I need to and I'm not going to the gym, but I'm having to walk a lot this week. Hopefully, it won't be too bad when I weigh myself this weekend.

It's been another two months - almost! - since my last weigh-in here  I've been doing *reasonably well* with gaining half a pound, maintaining or losing half a pound each week. I'm still allowing myself treats two or three times a week - much better than seven times a week  . And today I'm the lowest I've been for almost three and a half years - Nine stone three pounds - which I'm very happy about  I'd love to be nine stone by December, when I can have a little leeway, and start again in January
