I'll take that, not expecting nor particularly needing to lose the whole 7lbs this month.
Slowly, slowly.....
9 pounds lost so far this month. Beginning to get into the swing of it now. Plateaued a bit, as expected, from the first week's big loss, but a couple of steady weeks have followed.
January 3rd - 13st 11
January 10th - 13st 9.5
January 17th - 13st 6.5
This is going much better than my November efforts. Amazing what difference Dry January can make. Already looking forward to piling it all back on instantly after 10 pints, a kebab for lunch and a pizza for dinner at Forest on February 1st
1/1/25...112.8 kg ( 17 st 10 lbs )
9/1/25...108.7 kg (17 st 1lb )
16/1/25...108.0 kg ( 17 st )
21/1/25...106.7 kg ( 16 st 11lbs )
Nearly a stone in 3 weeks, happy with that...
So much down to this thread..Lets keep it going...Some great motivating posts on here esp one day sitting watching telly when someone said 'it's a lovely day for a walk before the bad weather hits'...Read it and went out for a 6km walk which would not have done without that post...brilliant !
Put on 6kg since I finished my diet 8/12. Thats xmas and a 2 week holiday for you. 5 week diet starts in couple weeks . Trying to lose 4kg in that time. Then be a bit more disciplined to get to 81 or 80 kg for a holiday in august
No change, but will take that after a pretty disastrous (but enjoyable) long weekend away with far too much food and drink. The 20k steps a day must have just about balanced things out
1 Jan: 88.9 kg
8 Jan: 88.5 kg
15 Jan: ? (no idea, have been away, no scale)
22 Jan: 88.1 kg
Tough month this, no training and a some bad things on my plate... 7Ibs is way out of reach, have to stick to my short term goal this month - always lose some weight from one Wednesday to another.
Day 1: 16st 3lb
Target: 15st 10lb
Day 22: 16st 0lb
Disappointing despite being really disciplined this week. Gone up a pound since last Wed. Consistently in the 15s at the start of the week but definitely stuck.
I'm wondering if the issue is portion sizes? I've skipped snacks and sweets and eating between meals. Eating loafs of veg.
7lb is going to be a stretch, but I always intended to keep going though Feb and March to get to 15st. I'm not removing January's target - still going for it - but I'm also looking at longer term losses.
