It’s working!
« on: October 10, 2004, 10:49:39 am »

Sorry to bore you all with my diet details but I reckon I have lost about a stone. I got on the scales today and I am about a stone lighter than the last time I weighed myself  - about a year ago.


I am also a skirt size smaller and that is despite having the odd chocolate nibble now and then.


It's getting a bit harder now because the colder weather makes me hungrier but I am filling the gap with low calorie choc drinks and soup. If I continue like this I'm going to treat myself to a nice dress for the staff Christmas Party!!

Old but spicey!

Thanks folks. I haven't finished yet though. I want to drop about another two stone. But, as I have found - easy does it!

I was doing well until the choc wars started too.  To compensate, I've been running three quarters of a mile every day and doing plenty of press ups and sit ups.  I'm down to about 13 stone 6 again.  12 stone 4 is my target.

Oh, I'm 5 feet 9, so who thinks I'm overweight or about right?

Well done oldspice! My mum has recently lost a bit of weight. Not a lot, but just enough to notice and she looks lovely.

I wouldnt worry about BMI charts - they are severely out of date and inaccurate. I would say BH as long as you are comfortable you are probably not overweight at all.


 


Well done to all those on diets who are losing weight
