I have tried a few of the diets, the red/green one ( I was slimmer of the week ) and a few others but I get clinically depressed if I can`t have curry
Good luck with this and put me down for £5/stone.

24 to 19

Well yes the time has come , I Really feel that i need to shed a few pounds.


I Tipped the Scales @ just over 24 Stone on new years day , Yes im a big lad but 24 Stone i feel is just a little to heavy

Plus i cant keep up with you boys

I Was eating 3 bags of crisps a day , 5 Choccie bars , 3 pints milk with my meals , But it's all stopped now ...

So no crisps , choccie , Donuts , Milk etc ......

Im not joining any clubs or anything , No silly milkshake drinks , Just food that i know is reasonablty good for me , Lodge combos etc ....

I Will weigh myself once a week ( Mon eves ) I Will post my results on here for all to see

Anyway i have a target weight of 19 Stone & i have a target Date 15th August that i would like to achieve my goal

I Have my doubters eh Ed , Who has bet me £100 That i will never reach 19 Stone , So im out to prove a point

Ed will be giving £100 To MENCAP CHARITY ( My nominated charity this year ) When i reach my goal

PLEASE IF YOU ALSO FEEL THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD A LITTLE MORE OF AN INCENTIVE FOR ME THEN ADD YOUR NAME/S BELOW

It would be great for me to raise a few quid & lose a few stone @ the same time


So please wish me luck , It's going to be a battle but im up for it

So ........

Starting weight 1/1/2008 > 24 Stone

1st Weigh in 14/1/2008 23.02 ( Loss 12lb )


Bring it on

Tiny,

Just to let you know mate.

You amongst others have kicked me into sorting myself out too.

Ive started a different diet this week too. Just a detox to begin with, then changing the way i eat.

Just so you know, you have someone else doing it with you

Congratulations Fella, I bet you feel better losing the weight.
I've been sorting myself out and have currently dropped from 17st 2lb to 16st 5lb since the 2nd Jan. I'm looking to get down to 14 and a half which I think will make me quite trim. Not seen that weight for a few years now lol

Good luck and keep up the fine work with the diet I bet Ed was feeling quite safe till you started shedding the pounds?

Nah, we only started the bet on Thursday. It started with him telling me was buying the bike, I pointed out that it would be at the back of the garage by the end of next week (next to the R/C cars and kite ) he reckons it won't, so I've made it a bit more 'interesting'

Time will tell

Looking forward to the big weigh in tonight

well done - thats really good going and it seems you've really started something on here LOL
Just think...... if you'd not had the grill and the caffreys - you'd of possibly lost a bit more - something to bear in mind
Well done you!

Mrs Bibo here,

Good on you Tiny Keep it up
I came in at 15 stone and at 5ft 1 thats bad I have to say Slimming World helped me Ive managed to shed 5 and half stone.

Its not just changing your eating habits but having the will power to say no after the first couple of months the cravings go.

Hope all goes ok.

KX
