Last weigh in when i was cycling was 12.5 stone back in October. Got back on the bike yesterday for the 5 mile each way commute to work, weighed myself last night and topped the scales at 13.7 1/2 Stone!!! Couldnt get round how much weight i'd put back on over xmas and from not exercising! Anyway im back on bike now and eating much better so fingers crossed i can get down to 11 stone which is my target weight, im 5 Foot 10 btw.

it's not easy but it's totally worth it, i swear after 3 days cycling and healthy eating my work pants are looser, i wonder if thats just becuase i stretched them though? Looking forward to the next weigh in next week to see if i've lost anything!

Half way there! Started at the end of October at 15st 6.5lbs, weighed in this morning at 13st 5lbs. Had a steady weight loss over Christmas and have gone from 38" work trousers to 32" (that I bought this week).

1st 13lbs to target! Hopefully I'll be eating up those hills come spring!

Weighed myself on the post scales at work today and came in at 13.3 which is excellent, thats 4lbs in 8 days, fairly pleased with that although thought i'd shift a bit more, still feel flabby around the middle but can deffo see a difference in my face. I start at the gym next week so that should help with the extra loss.

1.8 stone to shift then im on target.

Well finally got back on the scales after the shock on 4th Jan to find I had put on 13lbs during December lost 3lbs now but am finding it tough going can't seem to get motivated to lose it.
Will try to update every month on here as an incentive.
Any one else struggling?

Just stumbled across this thread. I'm quite a heavy chappy, speny most of last year round 16.5 stone, then peaked at 17 stone on Dec 28th. My weight has been pretty high for years, and I've just tried to exercise it off, but it's not really worked.

My Mrs has just become a Slimming World consultant so I've been doing that- 16 stone 4 last week. She lost about 20lbs in 3 months, and we eat proper food and everything!

There are some fantastic weight loss stories on here- just scook94 above- 2 stone off. Brilliant!

nightmare, just got on the scales and have somehow put on a 1.2 lb in weight since the 4th of Feb!! I had a week of the bike last week though as i was in Frankfurt with work, it might also be down to all the steiners, schnitzels and eating out every night. Going to have a proper ride out tonight after work, get some additional miles in i think!

Since the start of this year, approx the 4th Jan to date, Ive dropped from 13st 12lbs to 13st 0lbs according to this mornings weigh in!

Hopfully can make it to 12st 7lbs healthily and maintain it.

What's the secret?

Changing from being a lazy person doing nothing but watch tv to riding my bike 20 miles or going gym 4-5 days a week and eating better. Probly the shock from changing from being relativelly inactive to lots of exercise.

12 st 9lbs now!!! Like a week to go till target according to the trend, Ive been a bit lazy this last week with training, and eating, so I'm not sure how realiable this weeks loss was but, meh I'll take it.

 

[slinky malinky]

13st 6lbs my best so far and after nearly a year of training I have put my name down for a sportive!!!!!!!!! 2 months to lose 6lb (I'm going to treat myself to some new wheels when I get there)

Was about 15st 10lb about this time last year (I'm 5ft 9) I wasn't eating great but I was still playing hockey once a week and not much else.

I reckon my weight didn't help when I turned too quickly on the hockey pitch and dislocated my right knee and tore a load of knee ligaments.

So after nearly a year of taking it easy and starting to rebuild knee stability I got back on the bike.

Work has been doing a green campaign of trying to offset business mileage so loads of people are cycling / walking in and its great motivation !

Also purchased a Polar HRM so I could keep an eye on calories burnt etc !!!

So far I am 14st 5lb at the moment after some dieting over the past year a few weeks of cycling in/out of work twice a week and walking in/out of work twice a week.

Want to get down to about 12st by September for the start of the new hockey season as I am sitting this season out until my knee is back to normal !!!
