I went for a moderate 5 - 10 pound loss (I'm hoping it is pounds and not stone smilee ! ) So here we go again. December is the month where I more or less forget the word *diet* and eat what I want ... in moderation! ... and certainly NOT in moderation over Christmas! But I started my "healthy eating 2016" on the 2nd on January. And with three full days of no treats, I found that I only put two and a half pounds on in three weeks, making me Nine stone, three and a half pounds . It just shows how much determination works smilee I aim to have two or three "treat days" a week and the rest of the week to be "treat free" xxx

Somehow this math isn't adding up...3¼ minus 2 is 1¼...

Went up 0.7 to sit at 12 st 8.1 pounds, but it is rather difficult to do a lot with 30" of snow on the ground!

I've been good and I think I've lost 3-4kg over January which is good. smile Cut the crap out of the diet for the most part and while I have a pretty big breakfast I really watch my portions for lunch and dinner.

I was struggling with motivation and just general boredom and I came across a health plan that I have now signed up for. It's designed by a woman that lives in similar situation to me (remote) for people like me so knows that there's no gym facilities anywhere nearby and that fresh or uncommon foods aren't always available so it fits me to a T. Am excited to get going ... except the measurements. They want measurements. shocked

Dropped .3 over the last two weeks to sit at 12 st 9½ pounds. Went out early last week and didn't get a chance to weigh. It was worth it as I went to Colonial Williamsburg.

Dropped a measly 0.1 this week to sit at 12 st 9.4 pounds, but a drop is a drop, even if it is 0.1! I want to get back to 12 st.

You'll get there, Dave!

I've just started week 4 of my health programme and loving it. There is a food focus each week (looking at healthy fats this week) and different exercises each day and week. great support and it's working on me.
At the very start of the programme they asked for weight and some measurements but not once since have they talked about weighing or even calories. it really is a 'health' plan and not so much weight loss.

I know I've been rather quiet on this thread for a month or so smile I've either been maintaining or a few pounds on. After the Easter festivities, I'm Nine stone five and a half pounds so I aim to lose the extra pounds in the next few weeks smile
