Anticipated slow down after biggish loss on first week...

Still, any loss is a result and still enjoying feeling much better

1/1/25...112.8 kg
9/1/25...108.7 kg
16/1/25...107.9 kg

 

[Bedsex]

1/1 82.35kg (13st 0lb)
8/1 80.80kg (12st 10lb)
15/1 81.15kg (12st 11lb)

Disappointed, but not entirely surprised, to have gained weight since last week. But I’m still down 1.2kg from the day 1 weigh-in and down 5.35kg from the beginning of November.

A better effort is required this next week!

89.2 kilos on Saturday 88.2 this morning, was due to go out for 3 Kings dinner today, but wife's illness means cancellation, so hopefully can continue loss. Target 80 kilos.

Now 87.6 this morning, slow but steady.

I'm also up a few lbs which I'm hoping is a timing thing and disappointing. Nevertheless, the fight goes on.

 

[Brighton1959]

1st Jan - 194.5 pounds
8th Jan - 192.6 pounds
15th Jan - 191.6 pounds

Knock out the food lapses and I should lose the remaining 4.1 pounds. Good luck to you all.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Some good progress here. Well done everyone, even those who have gone a bit flat. Stick with it.

I often need to remind myself that my weight loss is rarely linear.

My progress this week, and since Jan 1st. Happy that the Festive calories are now working their way out!

Finished the last of the Christmas Chocolates and weather has warmed up enough for a couple of bike rides.

This Week

Month So Far

Day 1: 14st 9lb
Day 8: 14st 8lb
Day 15: 14st 3lb

These are a big surprise!

Likewise this week for me.

Day 1; 84.1kgs 13st 3lbs

Day 8; 83.4kgs 13st 2lbs

Day 15; 80.9kgs 12st 10lbs


I would normally be a little alarmed at what is between 5 & 6lbs loss, but I have had a few things to cause this.

Firstly, a very heavy cold, where my throat thought it had shards of glass in it , so making it hard to swallow anything too solid, combined with a loss of appetite.

Secondly, I have had no alcohol at all for the last 7 days.

Thirdly, I lost less than I thought I would the previous week., so I suspect it is party due to that.

Am more or less back to being 100% fit this week, so my aim is to continue on my regime and maintain my existing weight for the week. If I achieve that, I will be very happy indeed.

I’ve found I bounce around a weight for a week or so then bang I drop 0.8-10kg then bounce around the new weight for a week then bang drop another 0.8-10kg. Aynoe else having the same?

Are you weighing yourself first thing in the morning at near enough the same time each week...?

13st 4lb

Every day first thing in the morning

 

[superseagull1994]

Weigh in at the gym again 82kg think I may be bouncing around weight wise but will see next week, but managed to go to the gym twice this week so far so if I can continue building on that I'll end the month in a good place

 

[Grassman]

It’s been a difficult week - really craving stodge during the cold spell! Though, I’m rowing everyday between 25 mins and 35 mins to try and mitigate that!
I started off January on 89.5kg, this morning I was 88.5kg. So exactly a kilo lost. Anything under 88kg by the end of the month I’ll be happy with.

 

[Whoislloydy]

1st Jan - 186.1lb
Jan 15 - 179.8lb

Running 5k Tuesday/Thursday after work, a longer run on a Saturday/Sunday around the 10-12km mark. Signed up for a half marathon in May so I have something to work towards. Mixing in a couple of strength days in the gym and good rest and drinking plenty of water.
