Ok, I now need to get rid of about 6 stone, I was worse than I thought

[saratink]

i know i wanna loose 3 stone but im too scared to weigh.

I only wanna do it so i can go on mens shoulders comfortably at gigs. i'm too bloody short to see otherwise!!

If you want to see what you might look like slimmer or fatter then have a go on this. http://www3.weightmirror.com/weightmirror/index.php?id You upload a pic of yourself, put your height & weight in then move an arrow to add or remove pounds. The result is instant. (Oh if only it was that easy in real life!) I made myself look skinny on it then died laughing by doing a mahoosive one. Oh & it doesn't cost anything by the way.

Defo going to start once I finish up my job and get back to uni, might even join the gym there, though I don't like the gym as I always end up feeling inadequate!

[Sammy74]

Save your money and get a bike - that feeling of inadequacy is not uncommon and can right put you off! Then do a bit of walking and running in the great outdoors - it gets dark earlier and that hides a multitude of sins!

I'm going away this weekend and haven't got time to digest how it works properly so I will try and eat as little shit stuff as possible then start it properly on Monday. I am doing the extra easy one, the green and red day thing didn't appeal at all! I have 15 sins a day and considering a mars bar is 14 sins then I am royally fooked!

Cheers for that, they may be ideal for work. I'm just worried about the whole sweet tooth thing! Not a huge fan of fruit, veg or yoghurt but I figure i'd better start liking them

[dvjj]

Some great tips coming out I don't have a chocolate craving the BF does I am going to make him smell vanilla next time he cries for a choc bar! (I hide them!!)

Bear with drinking the water I have already had 4 litres today and peed about 4 times only, your body does get used to it and it helps to keep you feeling full xxx

Ok, I'm in too! I've sadly gained a stone since last year and know I need to get on it now rather than a mad rush for six weeks before like i've done previously

Not sure if anyone's posted this but...

Great for keeping track of your progress over time.

If I can manage to not put on any weight in the next year I'll be very happy.

Get a bike. Through cycling and not munching on chocolate (cos of my new teeth), Ive dropped just under a stone in the past 6ish weeks. I have a hellish sweet tooth and if I eat chocolate I get cravings. But Ive found if I can hang on for a weekish without, the carvings go. Cycling is brilliant. It's hard at first sure, but it doesn't take a lot to get where you're not stopping at every hill or pushing up it all the time - but get the best bike you can afford, even if it means saving for a bit. And because of that bit of weight off and a bit of extra lung capacity (not smoking helps too!) Ive been able to start running again - I crucified my back at the beginning of the year trying. You know me and my physique - if I can do it, I KNOW you can when you set your head to it. Dont set off with a target of six stone, just set off with a target of getting fitter and the rest - a better diet and weight loss will follow when you start enjoying the exercise and want to get more out of it. Just a bit at a time to start with and you'll be surprised how you can do. I set a target of doing the Edin marathon next year earlier this year, and Im buggered if Im not going to do it after a public declaration!

Go Chocs

[llcoolphil]

But, due to certain things happening this weekend I am determined to get rid of the weight

Hey dvjj....I'm back!

Things are finally getting back to normal after my mother-in-law dying in June so not only am I getting back into normal life, I'm getting back into the losing weight & getting fit again too! Managed to lose that 1 measly stone before Glastonbury this year but since then my weight has just kind of hovered.

Would like to lose another stone by the begining of Nov (when I go to Japan for 3 weeks! ) & then another one before Glastonbury 2011 but am not putting too much pressure on myself. Hopefully with the help of you lot though, I'll at least get some of the way there!

Good luck everyone! We can do it!

[**claire**]

I've lost 2lbs this week so not a bad start! Hope everyone else is having a good week!

[River]

I lost 3lb last week and after working out today I think I got my first proper exercise high Wish I could harness the feeling and replay it at a better time. The 30mins a day get a bit easier every day.

[benc]

I'll join in on this again, last year i managed to lose about 6Kgs. but i think since glasto i have put a fair bit back on and become unfit again.

My target this year is to rid myself of my beer belly.

Has onyone tried the paul mckenna i can make you thin book? i'm trying to follow his four rules and have been listening to the cd

[Smally]

So far for this thread I've had a fry up, loads of beer, a curry, another fry up and two mcdonalds.

I started a new job thought and walked there and back, thats two miles in total. I'll start this when I go shopping for some decent healthy grub instead of the crap I currently have in.
