I gained a pound in the last week. How this is possible with a deficit of just over 14000 cals I don't know. I suspect water weight from the additional sodium in my system (ate a lot of junk in the past few days - even though I was under on my daily targets).

I am drinking mucho water and will be trying to eat cleaner stuff for a few days. Will weigh again midweek to confirm or deny...

Sittingduck are you just calorie counting or are you on a particular diet?

Just counting, no specific diet being followed. I munch on everything from tuna to creme eggs! I rode to Southend Yesterday (83 miles all in) and ended up devouring a pizza for dinner, plus other nawties, throughout the day. Fairly sure it's just water retention and not the beginning of a plateau.

Got weighed this morning and now down to 12st 10lb's. According to BMI chart I'm now normal with BMI of 25. That's down from 31.7 on Jan. 2nd. I reckon on only another 3lb's to get down to my target.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Apologies to the confused! I struggled to persuade an Android tablet to post what I wanted, and it looks as if the text vanished in my first post.

I was at 15st 7lbs last weekend, and this weekend I'm down to 15st 5lbs. So the next smiley on my hitlist is receiving its ritual slaughter. In honour of Greg Collins (who was very cheerful when I saw him on Saturday morning), here's one who came off rather worse than him.

I'm finding that the Slimming World food optimisation method is an enjoyable and painless way of losing weight.

I've lost 48lbs since the second week in January and have enjoyed a rich and varied diet. Next to no weighing, no calorie counting can't beat its simplicity.

Just spotted this thread, thought I'd chip in:
21/12/11 - 15st 4lb / 97.0kg
23/01/12 - 15st 3lb / 96.8kg
20/02/12 - 14st 13lb / 94.8kg
28/03/12 - 14st 12lb / 94.3kg
18/04/12 - 14st 8lb / 92.4kg

I'm a smudge over 6 foot and fairly solidly built.

Slow but sure (little glitch near Xmas) and I was about 16 1/2 stone about this time last year :biggrin:

As of last Thurs morning down to 12st 9lb. At the weigh in on Saturday she's got me at 12st 11lb. Admittedly this is with clothes on and after breakfast. Still it was 2lb less than last week. I'd only got myself down by 1lb.

Apr 1st - 194lbs 13st 12lb

3lbs off in April, would have been more if Tesco hadn't put Haagen dazs and cheesecake in the half price offers :mrpig:
Steady progress I suppose, got to keep plugging away and not get so easily tempted by the goodies :evil:

Ok, slimmers world, if I buy on of the starter packs on ebay, £26 ish would that have everything to get me doing this diet........did the Atkins, which I thought was brilliant but MrsJ was concerned about my kidney stones on it.
