ianpinder:[url= http://howtoloose11st.blogspot.com/ ]Ok guys so to help me along the way I've started a blog. If some of you want to follow it it would be good.

im no good lol not helped by the fact i started with the wrong weight i emailed 82 instead of 84 i also had a kebab last night lol 😉
wk 1 - 89.2kg
wk 2 - 87.9kg
wk 3 - 85.8kg
Wk 4 - 86.0kg
wk 5 - 85.1kg
A change of eating habits only really. Not done much in the way of exercise mainly due to a promotion at work which has left me with no time in the gym.
Must get my finger out! Could have lost a lot more by now.
Still cant believe I lost a bit this week (it might only be 0.4kg but it all counts) as I have been rushed off my feet with work/home and as a result have been comfort cooking this week, including 2 lots of Haggis 😮
Week 1 - 102.2
Week 2 - 100.3
Week 3 - 98.7
Week 4 - 95.7
Week 5 - 94.7
Not too sure why I'm losing weight in whole kgs - if I was looking at that data at work I'd think someone with no imagination was making it up.
I seem to have slowed down after last weeks 3kg loss - not sure how I managed that as I did nothing different to what I have been doing on the other weeks. I wish I could replicate it every week, I'd reach my target weight by the middle of March. 😀
I'll settle for 1kg loss a week though, if I can maintain that rate.
I can't believe I've lost over a stone so far with little real effort - just willpower. I can now easily fasten the top button on shirts which were strangling me before christmas.
Week 1 - 124.5
Week 2 - 124.0
Week 3 - 123.4
Week 4 - 122.7
Week 5 - 121.1
So thinks going steady, though the last 2 weeks have been better than expected! Started more of a structured eating plan (though tonight was pizza - if homemade and healthyfied....) and tomorrow is beer fuelled death!
If I manage a good week again next week, which is possible given the huge contract just starting invloving mucho physical labour I would imagine, then I may hit my first interim goal sooner than expected (120) 🙂
18bikes?
another increase for me, second week in a row.
I need to get back on track, 5 meals out in a week doesnt help.
to the turbo trainer I go
im putting my dads name down, (Mark). he needs to loose some waite. (i have asked him about it)
he has one question.... where will you be stopping for lunch, elevensies, pre-dinner, dinner, tea, after tea, pre-supper, and supper?
but he will join the group 😀
Weigh in tomorrow, I'm not feeling confident.
I have had a bit of a slow week as been a bit under the weather so not really got much exercise in. Hoping for a lb loss tho.
Yeah - fell of t'wagon over the weekend myself and unless there is a miracle overnight I think I may be up a bit this week 🙁
Still, nothing contrary to shifting lard planned for this weekend (ie no beer/ pizza/ beer/ lasgane/ beer which featured strongly last weekend... ahem)
I've not been on the bike for nearly a month due to tendonitis and DIY
Fortunatley I've lost weight as for the last few weeks it's been painting, digging, moving stuff etc........
Got a test ride Saturday for my leg 😯 Hope it's ok so I can get back on the bike for some proper calorie busting rides!!
A week of no sleep or riding due to ill children is my excuse.
I always find I need to eat more when I only get 2 hours sleep!
Woo hoo - weigh in and... same as last week: 121.1! I had hit 122.5kg over the weekend and it wasn't really going anywhere until Wednesday when a bit came off, with 1.2kg between yesterday and today 🙂 So not a loss from last Friday, but I will take standing still for a week over a gain!!!
Back on the wagon again, hopefully get a good couple of weeks in now before the next potential derailment of a weekend away in York... with beer... and more beer. Ahem.
.....and no loss this week. Surprising as while not as active as usual still got 50 miles in on the bike at the weekend and a 7mile run on Wednesday.
Oh well....plateaux central here i come as usual.
1.2kg this week. Honing in on that 100kg's..... 90kg, seems like a plan before the HONC.
very bad week (well, 2 really) been off the bike due to resting my back. managed to put 7lbs back on 🙁
I'm losing, steadily, another 600g this week! Don't have a goal but steady weight loss is how it's done so I'm happy. Just been out for a lovely Thai meal with far too much larrup so I'll step up the exercise tomorrow.
today is going to be bad, superbowl tonight so will be dominos pizza.
I was 102kg on Decemeber 26th 2009.
I'm 95kg now so 7kg lost so about 1kg per week from cutting junk out.
Been doing some riding now and hope to keep losing the lard.
I had to by a pair of size 36 waist trousers before I went on holiday etc
Tight too. But now I am finding I need to use a belt and eventually all the eyes.
Hope to be back in 34 waist trousers next month. And 32 in 2 months.
102kg, 7kg lost and 95kg with 15kg to go before I'm back to 80kg.
Long way away but I will not stop plodding away-if I can do it anyone can as I'm a right junka/choco-holic or was.
Keep it up (or down?) and don't give up-patience and plans help but get riding and eat healthy.
June seems so bloody far away!
date actual target
31/12/09 107.5 107.5
01/01/10 107.5 107.5
08/01/10 104.9 106.5
15/01/10 103.6 105.5
22/01/10 104 104.5
25/01/10 103.6 104.5
29/01/10 102.5 103.5
05/02/10 100.8 102.5
Still ahead of the game (a bit) and should be back in double figures next friday..... then just 10kg to go (or maybe a bit more)... back on the turbo/commute this week I think too!
So weigh in tomorrow..... No confident this week, got to the gym 5 times, and had dominos on Sunday night
Mrs S is doing well currently and I am within spitting distance of being half way to my goal according to todays weight. I'm finding the exercise 6 days a week tiring at times though. Lightest I've been for 8 years.
Had a weekend in London for our anniversary last weekend. I'm not expecting tomorrow to be good news!

I am spotting the flaw in your weight loss plan 😉
I am expecting a week without loss again as my knackered knee has knackered itself again so not got much exercise done, yet have been eating a bit more out of boredom.
I am off to do Ben McDui/Derry Cairngorm in a wee while,think I will leave the weigh in till I get home....
Well managed to loose a kilo, better then expected. A stone gone so far, 1 down 10 to go
3lb down again this week, nice and steady. but super stoked that i'm now a stone down on starting weight and according to the wii i'm no longer obese!
: )
Hmm my weight is going up! 103.1 last week, 104.5 this week. So much for exercise reducing weight! Well actually according to my body analyser my lean body %age has gone up by 5% this week. That's what happens when you go from 30-40 miles weeks to 120-130 mile weeks in one big jump.
Now have to work out how to lose weight (fat) while my muscle mass is increasing. Hopefully my lean mass will plateau when I continue this mileage and then I'll start to consume the fat reserve. So I think it'll be a few weeks before the weight loss kicks in.
Been a good week somehow - had some buffday choccy and crispy duck pancakes mid-week but managed to loose another 1.7kg... not sure how to be honest but now back below 100kg for first time in 4 years.
Now at 99.1kg this morning!!
Good on you, Ian P - some goal but look s like you're well on your way!!
Flat week for me :/ but I expected to gain weight as I have been stuck in meetings & out for dinner twice this week!
At least it wasn't a gain, must try harder would be my report card.
I've lost the 4lbs I put on in the US last week - so I'm stuck where I was.
But at least I've shaken off the burgers / bacon and eggs / martinis / beer that make my life up when I'm over there!
I'm getting close to the magic 100kg mark. Only another week I guess. The 90Kg for HONC looks like it's on !!!!!
99percentchimp - I'm jealous... can't wait to see the double instead of triple figures on the scales.... It'll be the first time in about 3 years for me 😉
121.1kg last week, 120.4 this. I had hoped to hit 120 today, but it wasn't to be.
Slow but steady is how it is going, but that is fine with me. I should really start doing some proper exercise sometime as that usually gets it shifting well for me.
94.2kg today 😀 7done and 14.2kg for skinny roadie look.
In mean time I will still breathe in 😉
Just came back in to this. First up, apologies for doubting IanPinder's use of units. Way to go BigMan, you're a firm favourite for the main prize if you keep that up and hit your target, and you'll deserve it too.
92kg for me this week - again. It's slow going at present, but 1/ I haven't actually put any back on since the start, and 2/ I'm 9lbs lighter than the start.
It gets frustrating at this stage and this is where I usually start to slip. My goal is to get down from 96 to about 86 so I've done 4 out of 10 but I need to be remotivated. Come on someone, kick me in the backside.
Glad I waited for the second dump yesterday. I just managed to sneak in at exactly the same as the week before. Not great news but certainly better than first thing that morning!

No worries, hopefully I'll hit my target, then you lot can all come jump out of a plane with me.
As for motivation, other people can not motivate you, you have to want to do it, then all your friends support just helps drive you. If you don't want to do it deep down then you will never achieve it.
I've tried to loose weight pleanty of times before and failed because I never felt that i really wanted to, even though I had lots of close friends helping me and supporting me.
This time round it seems easy, I have no one close to me supporting me as I've just moved to a new part of the country and just a silly blog on the net, but it doesn't seem to matter, I've just got my head in the right place
mate, if you want to jump out of a plane go ahead. I won't be.
Motivate me is the wrong phrasing. What i mean is, give me some more ideas. I ca only survive on dust for so long......
TBH the key to weight loss (for me anyways) is just to do some exercise. Ride your bike, go for a run (if that's your thing) and just get active. My weight loss has been very gradual, but has picked up not I'm doing my 50 mile per week commute.....
Time on the bike's the key....
Time to get depressed again people 😉
...for the record i have been stuck at 70kg for a couple of weeks. Either got to properly cut some calories or exercise more, which my bad knee will not allow.
