Down from 13st 13lbs since Feb. My pants pretty much fall down and I had to buy a new belt!

I lost 3/4 stone last year but it was hard work and I've lost the motivation to keep at it an it's creeping back. I need to stop snacking, smaller portions and cut down on drink.

My progress so far on a 12 week 'slim-a-thon' at work :

Starting weight - 207.5 lbs
week 2 - 205.2
week 3 - 202.4
week 4 - 200.4
week 5 - 198.0
week 6 - 196.0
week 7 - 192.0 - current total loss 15.5lbs

I am 5'10 so my BMI has dropped from 29.8 to 27.5
Target weight is 175lbs so gotta go some for the next 5 weeks to lose another 17lbs

Best bit is, I am really enjoying riding and I feel a million times fitter than I did 2 months ago

I'm with you there RP,did well last year got down to my lowest weight for ages.Then put some back on at Christmas and have struggled since just to get that weight off never mind losing any more.
Must stop snacking and eating take-out at weekends

Well I reached my weight loss target yesterday. Started last October at 15st 6.5lb, yesterday I weighed in at 11st 10lb, total weight loss of 52.5lb.

I think that'll do me but the hard work starts now!

Fantastic effort. Well done. I lost a similar amount last year and have managed to keep it off by continueing to weigh once a week and working off any pounds that creep back on.

Try carrying 52lb weight for ten minutes then think that we used to do that all the time.

Well after an already bad July of too much eating,just got back from 5 days away and the scales are telling me I've put 6lbs on

Huge cooked breakfast everyday may have sommat to do with that

Time to get serious me thinks,going away again in 5 weeks so want to lose 10lbs before then,

ok so here's mine!!

I need to lose weight badly 28yrs old 5ft 8 and 110 kg not good !!!! so i started off running in the gym and lifting light weights and this is my progress. My target is 90 kg which i haven't been since i can remember but rome wasn't built in a day. I go on holiday 25th October to cuba and i want to look half decent as im going with friends and ive forever been the fat one!! So here i go:

May 1st 2010 110 Kg
May 26th 2010 108 Kg
June 26th 2010 106 Kg Brought a road bike 28th June to increase training
July 26th 2010 100 Kg Cycled over 200 miles already and running approximately 15 miles per week !!! now commuting to work every other day 30 mile round trip.

Im going to weight myself once a month on the same date and if i keep on track i will hopefully be 94 kg when i go away.

I am dieting 6 days a week with lots of fruit, veg, chicken, fish but very little carbs and i have 1 day a week i call my blow out day where i can eat pretty much what ever i want and of course the best ingredient of all i drink a minimum of 2 liters of water a day plus whatever i need while training or cycling. Also the blow out is my day off from any training what so ever. Also i drink a whey protein shake for breakfast instead of eating which gives me some of the bits to help with recovery.

Congratulations with your efforts so far - keep it up and you'll achieve it no problem.

After some health problems,namely doctors finding a small aneurism in right leg,high cholesterol and slightly high blood pressure I`ve got back on the bike after years away and started to train and lose weight.
Just started a database to hopefully keep up with how I`m progressing.

I`m 5`10",and started out at 16.7 lbs (104.8 kilo) on 160710 and with a bmi of 32.8!
Im currently at 15.7 (98.4 kilo) and the bmi has dropped to 31.

Have to say I`m more than happy with this,although I know the initial weight loss will even itself out and I`ll be losing a lot less in the coming weeks.
I`m currently cycling every other day on a 9.4 mile route which I hope to increase fairly soon once I get rid of the old MTB and change to a Scott P6 hybrid.

[the_mikey]

I'm 5ft6 and weight 81.2kg at the moment, in the the last 18 months I've dropped weight from 98kg settling at around 81kg, although I hope to lose a little more, it seems very hard to get past 80kg....
