111 Kg today. Same as FLV point on last post stayed at 113Kg but belt was looser. Veg based diet going well but I will be participating in some haggis next week The lack of meat hasn’t been an issue yet but need to get the carb/fat/protein balance improved. Back at gym and a bit of running too. Home for a week so time to get out on the bike probably Sunday. Feel better but tired in a good way. On on.

231 lbs...so 2 off, quite surprised but happy with that, especially after the
Red grape juice fest last night

Good stuff

Sadly it's a 2lb gain for me this week. Not sure why but it is what it is.
Last week 18st, today 18st 2lb.
Onwards and upwards

Small blip in a long process - keep at it.

Maybe building muscle with your cycling streak, or inflamation with it, or in need of a big poo!

Keep it up, it'll surely swing back the other way

Thanks guys. The scales don't tell the full story in sure. It's a long term.project so forward we go.

An interesting article in this weekend's Guardian suggests falling off the wagon is an integral part of the process. Recognizing when you've failed helps to keep you on the straight and narrow.

Well I wasn't expecting a meditation article, but as a meditator myself yes it is pretty relevant

Some useful points do adopt in that article.

Taking the niece out to lunch at an Italian place yesterday may not have been the smartest move for my weight loss.

This will be the first one I pull from the 'Big Bag of Excuses'

Happy to help

On the bright side, exercise reduces stress... so you've got an excuse to get out on the bike more.

Didnt feel like a good week tbh, so glad to have bagged something. Just hoping for some better weather soon, getting an itch for warmer days. Some good progress here folks :)

Thought you wrote Wetherpsoons not "weather soon". I think its the dry january getting to me!
Ps hope I have worked out the quotes function?????

Gotcha and well done
Looks like 12 have maybe dropped out or just busy with other things. Your names are still on the list for when ever you can update.

I’ve just been updating my original post or would you prefer to add a new one each week?

Ah, bugger , I'll go back and find yours, sorry

.Yeh I'd been expecting every one to out a new post each week after the Thursday night weigh-in warning. There maybe more then. Better to find out now

I'll fall into line this week and post my weight on a Friday instead of a Monday.

I was also updating my original post, like the old thread.

I don't mind posting a new one... but I aint posting on a Friday .

Well I'm sorry for the confusion. I'll go back tonight and make sure I've not missed anyone else

If you don't put a new post I don't know you've posted (no notifications for editing) and I'm ending getting results at lots of different times.

So, for clarity, new post here whenever you weigh-in

Weigh-in number 5 tomorrow folks!

Post your weight in a new post below please, not by editing you initial or previous post then I can see who's posted.

If you've missed some weigh-ins don't be shy, just get weighed, post below and get back on the wagon that's fine

Good luck

That's me down 16.6lb overall at 244.4lb Sadly still a long way to go...
