    Weight loss thread 2016

    I am pulling this thread out of hibernation.

    Last year I got down to 14st 6lbs.
    Today I weighed myself and I am 16st 7lbs. Goal weight is 11st. Let the challenge begin.

    Fun and effective ways to lose weight are very welcome on this thread. Anyone who wants to join in is very welcome. You do a weekly weigh in and it can get a bit competitive over who loses the most each week. And we can cheer each other along!

    Who's in?

    Ok, this is something only me and my dr know - I don't even tell hubby, and never have done. I lost 12 lbs through withdrawal, but have put on 10lbs since going back on an opiate, and with Christmas. So, as of this morning, I weight 17st 1lb. I don't have a goal weight, just want to be less itms. I can't diet in the strictest sense of the word cos of the lithium, I can't do much exercise, so I just have to reduce the naughty things. However, I always refuse to do this before my birthday so, from 7 Jan I'm on it
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    We'll keep it positive, friendly, with a bit of competition thrown in. If you don't want to put your weight in that's fine, you just have to pick your weekly weigh-in time and then post what you lost or gained.
    I remember last year the competition I had going with Magie was very motivating.
    There is no judgement here, we are all different weights based on our personal circumstances, all we can do is do our best.
    Let's try our best together

    By the way, here is a list of 'calorie-neutral foods':

    Vegetables
    Asparagus
    Beetroot
    Broccoli
    Cabbages
    Carrots
    Cauliflowers
    Courgettes
    Cucumbers
    Lettuces
    Radishes
    Spinach
    Tomatoes

    Fruit
    Apples
    Blackberries
    Cranberries
    Clementines
    Melons
    Oranges
    Peaches
    Papayas
    Raspberries
    Rhubarb
    Strawberries
    Watermelons
