A loss is a loss. Well done!Just 1lb off this week but I've had a bad week and binged a bit on Thurs and Fri
I was 87.1 kilos this morning.I’m going to drop 7 kilos, get down to 80kg and stay at that weight.
I’m usually around 85, and have went up to 87kg after Christmas and New Year.
The weight I’m at now is just taking too much of a toll on my joints and tendons when I’m running. I feel like I’m spending most of the week hobbling around like a geriatric.
No more pizza from Slice.
Well you’re making much better progress than me. Might have to borrow your diet.Just 1lb off this week but I've had a bad week and binged a bit on Thurs and Fri
Well you’re making much better progress than me. Might have to borrow your diet.
Have found in the past that you can drop a surprising amount of weight in a short time just by cutting out the junk food.Not a diet as such! Trying to resist the junk food snacks in the cupboard. Guilty of buying crap at work if I'm having a bad day. I've stopped doing that. Trying to eat fruit or yoghurt when I feel hungry between meals.
I've been weighing my porridge oats on a morning. I just tip a load of oats in a bowl, but when I measured, I've actually been having about two portions according to the guidelines on the packet
Trying to make an effort to sleep better. I crave junk when I'm tired.
I've gone from 106kg to 96kg since November and have mainly noticed in going from my chest, hips and face. Been doing a lot of legwork in the gym and running as well so my upper legs are a lot more muscle toned than previously.Gone from 84kg down to 80.8kg from mid jan to now. Not much fat on me but my gut. Been told thats last to go apparantly?
Nightshifts are bad for weightloss
Don't kill your body and life mate. Next year is ages away and if you can lose a lb a week you'll be at least 4 stone down.The lads are always asking me to go on the drink and it’s a nightmare keeping on track.
Got a birthday to attend on the 12th so I’ll be going to that, but will allow 1600 calories for it.
Getting married next year so wanting to trim right down.
Running 3 times a week and lifting weight 4 times a week also.
This.Don't kill your body and life mate. Next year is ages away and if you can lose a lb a week you'll be at least 4 stone down.

You sound like me. 271lb in mid December. That’s when I started, and the reason I did was because I could get Wegovy. I wanted to get started on it before the January rush. I’ve had a problem with my weight for years and I do think there are biological changes to your body and hormones when you’re overweight for a long time. For example before I started I would eat a balanced meal at about 6pm and by about 9pm I was hungry, by 10pm my stomach was hurting I was that hungry. This is why I think Wegovy will really help me, even if it’s just to get me to change my mindset.
At the same time I forced myself to walk into Marine House gym. I’ve always found the gym a really difficult place to be, it’s really intimidating when you have no idea what you’re doing. But since I was going in mid December, one of the quieter times the owner was able to really help me, working out a 3 day plan for me to do and show me each machine for that plan. I really can’t recommend it more.
I am now 11lb down 4 weeks in, which considering it’s been Christmas and new year I am very happy with. I am going to Disney Paris in March. I would like to be under 240lb by then, with a longer term goal of being under 200lb.
How did you get that?Update on this, I am now 5 months in. I’ve dropped from 271lb to 230lb. The single biggest change is the portion size being considerably smaller, and no interest in picking at anything in between meals.
For example I could pick up a sausages sandwich on my way to work, by 11 I was hungry so I’d eat a meal deal sandwich and packet of crisps, by 2pm I was hungry again and going to the corner shop for something to snack on. I’d then be wanting tea at about 4.30-5, and be hungry again later on.
Now I will have some breakfast at home, overnight oats with some berries usually, and I won’t be hungry until well after 12, but I could only eat a sandwich at most, usually not finishing it. Sometime skipping it altogether. Then having half the size of a meal for tea compared to what I did have and that’s me done for the day. I started counting calories but Im not organised to do it full time, I really struggle with working it out for home cooked meals, but I’ve got an idea and I should be at about 1400-1500 per day.
I didn’t set a target when I first started, but now knowing how I’m going I’m aiming for under 14st 7lb before I come off it, I’m comfortable at 15st, so that gives a bit of a buffer.
I know some people will consider Wegovy cheating, but to be honest I really don’t care. I am now the lightest I’ve been since 2020, and at this rate will be lower than I was in 2018 in about 3 weeks. I am a bit concerned about coming off it, but that is an issue for 3 or 4 months time. I’ll likely titrate the amount down rather than coming off it cold.
