OP can you delete my data from your spreadsheet please. Reason as per your post below

I can take other views but you just make stuff up.

It would be my pleasure.

Heh. Pounds and flounces.

Is it too late to join in somehow? Sorry not read the whole thread to find out the answer if someone has asked already 🙂

Take Jambalayas place

if you think it can help you, although we’re only running for another 6 weeks (end June)

Just need to know your current weight in lbs and a target for 30/6. email in profile.

6 weeks! Oh crap…

maybe 7…..

If you’re ‘Oh Crap!’ then what are the rest of us?

Already there? 😀

there’ll soon be a blackmarket in excess weight loss, can you sell me a few lbs to get me back on target?

So you pay me to eat 10 Eccles cakes??? I’m in!

I’m loosing 1lb a week at the min… Not great to hit my 200lb target!

Interestingly, yesterday I found a weight tracker spreadsheet on my OneDrive from the start of 2016… I was 281 LBS back then! lost 3 then gave up tracking it.

Can we do a post 30/6 to end of year. Just spotted this

No-one’s stopping you. But I won’t be. After chasing 60 people every 2 weeks and transferring their data onto a spreadsheet, I’m looking forward to the final tally up and then retiring.

If you don’t want to be in any more please send me an email with cancel or leave or something instead of your weight and I’ll remove you – eg: theotherjonv leave

Sorry, only just seen this. Have emailed to drop out. Got too much on my plate, hoho, to keep this up at the mo.

Right you lot; weigh in day, usual format of stwname and weight in lbs

theotherjonv 194

7 weeks to go, which at 1-2lbs per week is 1/2 – 1 stone potential still. Are you on track, still plateauing? Need to change the game slightly to restart; there’ll be plenty of advice on here if you ask for it.

email will be sent shortly….. and as per the last one, those that have either asked to be removed, or who haven’t sent me a weight for 4 weigh ins now (best part of 2 months) have been removed.

That said, there are still 45 on the wagon, so let’s not lose any more now!!

Loving your work Jon. Mine will be with you early tomorrow I think and it won’t be pretty. Still not settled into my new job and I just know the scales will say as much.

Hit another plateau. But I take some solace in the fact that not once has weight gone up 🙂

Unlikely to hit target, but the motivation from here is great.

I’ve dropped a size in clothes, faster on the bike. So this is good.

Best wishes to those still sticking with it.

TOJV – you’ll get my email update this evening

Sub 100kg now, just, at 99.8kg!

Think hitting 90kg in 7 weeks is very optimistic, but I’ll leave the target as it is – sub 90kg is still the end goal, however long it takes.

Thanks again to Jonv for keeping us on track!

Well, this morning’s weigh-in was a disappointing if not surprising, 86kg. That’s after a week of drinking on a trip to Madrid, so no great surprise. Have to get back on it with some vigour if I want to get to my 82.5kg target.

203 lbs

Fallen off the wagon somewhat in recent weeks, mainly down to nervous snacking whilst awaiting the arrival of FlyingOx Jr MK2. He’s here now, so bar a couple of head-wetting sessions I can get back to normal. A lot of laziness to undo to do before end of June though.

Well done to those who’ve kept at it. There is a seriously impressive amount of chub gone over the past few months.

Strava KOMs should be tumbling now with all this increased fitness!! I can’t believe it’s been 5 months. I really do feel I’ve settled into a maintenance routine now, and permanently changed my eating habits and perceptions. More importantly my wife has too. I think it’s much easier when you both buy into it.

Won’t get my weight emailed till tomorrow; but I’m expecting to have put on a couple of lbs.

Down 2.8lbs from last weigh in so have 7 weeks to loose 6lbs. Hopefully should do it. After plateauing for abit in April glad to see it drop again.
Should I miss the target, some consolation June was revised down- I have beaten my original June target.

Just mailed mine in – up 3lbs!!!!! Best get back on it. I have been slacking to be fair, so I know what I need to do.

So having lost my way a bit (a LOT) for a couple of months, definitely back in the game now. Eating (more) healthily and exercising more works funnily enough folks!

Anyway… just have to share this as I’m grinning from ear to ear… Was 178lb at weigh in Friday morning, just weighed myself this morning after destroying myself on the Wild Boar Chase full route yesterday (don’t worry I’ve eaten and drank loads to replenish since) and I’m down at 175lb now! Another 3lb lost in a long weekend of eating relatively healthily and doing some very strenuous exercise!

Just gotta keep that up, lost 12lb now just got 7 more to go (albeit I should have lost that 7lb already). 😀

Right people time for a last push to the finish line!!

Firstly muchos thanks to JV! It must be a proper ballache emailing people and running that spreadsheet so here goes:

Thankyou sir, doing this has helped me shift a fair chunk of weight, it’s helped me keep it going when I may have quit. It’s making me still push to get rid of this last bit and maybe, just maybe have a ‘Normal’ BMI for the first time in about 15 years…..

😀

Six weeks(4 weigh ins)…. .& 19LBS to go (= Normal BMI)…. Big ask but I’ll get shut of some of it..

Was 178lb at weigh in Friday morning, just weighed myself this morning after destroying myself on the Wild Boar Chase full route yesterday (don’t worry I’ve eaten and drank loads to replenish since) and I’m down at 175lb now!

Without wishing to piss on your chips, some of the 3lb will be residual dehydration from yesterday. But, only some of it, so go you! 🙂

Been going up and down the past few weeks, I put on 2-3lbs and then lose it, only to repeat for the following 2 weeks. I just cant seem to get back into the flow and I’m so close to breaking into the 11 stones.

Final 6 weeks and I aim to lose 6lbs as a minimum. Going to start running again as not run since my marathon last month and make a huge effort to think before eating, at the moment I seem to think after I have finished and regret it.

Big thanks to JV, you have done a grand job!

^^Second that!^^

Going to start running again

I’ve not run since London Marathon, need to but not sure I want to….might just say 10k per week to keep it up.

Enjoying the bike again…

Started well but have put 2.5kg on in the last 3 weeks. Diet of cake and beer not helping 🙁

Need to sort out.

Thought it was about time I poked my head back up.

I had a really rough few weeks. The missus and I have been trying for a kid for a while now but no success. A few tests later and we have been given less than a 1% chance of conceiving naturally due to both of us having fertility issues. My reasons aren’t clear but the specialist thinks 20ish stone sat on my balls for hours at a time cycling probably hasn’t helped! As a result I had an enforced 4 weeks off the bike to see if things improved but it didn’t.

Shortly after this news my Dad had a heart attack, closely followed by Mum having a fall trying to put the bins out and essentially destroying her shoulder so I’ve been looking after them also.

Happily they are both OK now, the missus and I have some options we are exploring and all has been getting back to normal over the past couple of weeks. Moved into our new house at the start of May.

I had my first ride out and promptly did this:

Smacking my knee into a rock and promptly putting myself back off the bike for a couple of weeks. Wish i’d taken the advice in the recent knee pad grouptest in the mag now!

However, I’ve managed to resume training in the last week. My last weigh in was pretty good and i think i’m back on course for the end of June.

Yesterday I completed my first triathlon. When i sighned up my target was not to come last. My final result: 149th out of 257 starters!

I failed to keep up with this since the first few weeks (partially down to the breakdown of my relationship/becoming a single dad) but the last month or so I’ve been trying hard to keep my diet under control and I am down about a stone so happy with that. Still plenty to lose still

I had my first ride out and promptly did this

Jeez, that must have been a big stack, it’s taken off one half of your forks 😉

Sorry to hear you’ve been having a rough time fella, glad to hear things are starting to turn round. Gizza shout if you fancy a pedal out.

Well done on the Tri Kieran!!

Without wishing to piss on your chips, some of the 3lb will be residual dehydration from yesterday. But, only some of it, so go you!

Well I’m gonna piss on your chips… 😛

Was 12st7lb the next morning too, then on Friday last week was 12st6lb.

This morning I weighed myself and 12st5lb! BOOM… Lost a stone! OK so I’m a bit behind my target, but considering I was VERY late to the party on here for various reasons I’m quite happy for now.

I tell you one thing though… I’m constantly bloody hungry!!!

I’m constantly bloody hungry!!!

Do you want one of my chips? 😉

I rode 190 km on Saturday, and am 2lbs lighter this week too!! I’m feeling a bit hungry today and about to go shopping too, which is bad!!
