Week 18 Weigh In

14st 4.5lbs.

Lost 2lbs and it is totm. Well chuffed!

I was sure I was going to have a small loss or a gain, had a few items which were over points, must have burned them off at work.

I was looking at my measurements today, and I have lost 18cm around my waist since I started, how cool is that?

Week 17 Weigh In

14st 6.5lbs. I lost 1.5 lbs, just 1 lb needed to get back to where I was.

I must say, I feel like I am struggling to focus lately, maybe I need a new goal.

Week 16 Weigh In

14st 8lbs, been away so missed last weigh in, looks like I wasnt so good, oops.

Back to basics with tracking this week I think.

Week 14 Weigh In

14st 6lbs

I put on 0.5lb, which I am ok with, was expecting worse after the crap I ate this week, TOTM is not good for a diet lol!

Got a wedding to go to on thursday, and got a pretty dress, so going to be extra good for the next few days, not sure how I will cope this weekend without weeklies, but will try.

Week 13 Weigh In

Lost 2lbs!!

Now 14st 5.5lbs.
Was well chuffed with that! Getting back into exercise felt so good this week, and my back feels absolutely fine. Might even try starting 30 day shred again.

I have however realised I cant eat like I used to, went to london yesterday for a trip to see Ghost the musical at picadilly theatre (which was really good!) and I ate my usual going to london crap, but firstly I only managed half of what I normally would have eaten, and then proceeded to be sick last night because my body couldnt deal with the crap anymore. I had used my normal dailies plus 45 of my weeklies all in one day, and had the same reaction last time I did that, so going to put a limit on the weeklies, only allowed a maximum of 30 weeklies in one given day. That should work better.

Week 12 Weigh In

Stayed the same again with 14st 7.5lbs.
I went over points on wednesday (probably by quite a bit), and still missing exercise, I think I definately have a metabolism that needs the exercise boost. I annoying pulled a different back muscle (or at least i think/am hoping that it was a muscle) on tuesday, just after the other was feeling healed.

Will I able to do exercise this week? I will give something light a go tonight I think. Hopefully I can.

On a plus side, I did lose 1cm around my waist, not sure if that is fat or just tightening up of muscle from my strengthening exercises, but it is still 1cm.

Week 11 Weigh In

I stayed the same with 14st 7.5lbs.

Glad it wasnt a gain after falling off track several times, I guess I still need to work on the unplanned temptation factor when other people are tempting, ie going to a festival, dad making cakes, friends wanting to go to the pub for lunch, etc. At least I seem to have learned to control it enough that I didnt fall completely off the wagon and kept it to those times. I guess thats an improvement for me, in the past I would have been bad once and then just lost control for the rest of the week, and would have had a huge gain, and maybe given up with the diet, but I am back on track now.

Its all a learning curve. At least I am still living life.

Oh! and I am really missing exercise, that probably didnt help. My back is feeling a lot better now though. Not completely healed yet, but a lot better. I am going to try seeing if it will be ok with some zumba (dvd) because I dont think that would put much pressure on my back? Wont push it too hard though.

Week 10 Weigh In

14st 7.5lbs, I have lost a pound.

Pretty pleased with that as it was totm and I ate over my weeklies by about 15 points and my back played up and went really bad, so havent done any exercise.

With regards to my bad, I ended up going to see the doctor as it was so bad the other night I was struggling to breathe due to the pain. He prescribed me pain killers, told me some stretches to do first thing when I wake up and a couple of time during the day, and told me to try to stay mobile.
So far, my back is feeling better than it has in quite a while and I think it might actually get better properly this time. Hopefully with the weight loss, that should be a problem I wont have to worry about in the future.

Week 9 Weigh In

14st 8.5lbs.

2.5lbs off ! woohoo!

Apparently all that running around at work helped with something then...

Almost forgot to celebrate that it is the 1st stone off ! double woohoo!

Week 7 Weigh in

14st 11lbs

lost 1.5lbs, only 0.5lbs more and holiday gain will be gone. Very happy with that, what I put on over 2 weeks, I will lose over 2 weeks.

Now for a treat day! double iced doughnut and fish foot spa.

Week 8 Weigh in

14 st 12lbs.

It was a gain of 1.5lbs, but it was because I went on holiday and didnt track, and was totally worth it.
Pretty chuffed that it wasnt more to honest.

Back on track today!

Week 6 Weigh In

14 st 10.5lbs.

So a loss of 1 lb.
I'm pretty happy with that.
I also measured and had a 1cm loss around waist this week, but I lost 3cm from area under my breasts, and nothing from hips, it really does come off weirdly.

5 Weeks in

I have been following weightwatchers propoints for 5 weeks with a current loss so far of 11.5lbs.I have decided that it would be beneficial for me to write about my experiences losing weight and any issues or insight I come up with.
You never know, it may help someone else aswell.

I started on 16th April 2011 at a weight of 15st 9lbs.
Currently at 14st 11.5lbs.

With a height of only 5ft, that places me as very obese, and unfit and unhealthy.

I will be updating my weight every saturday.

I will succeed!
