@buttons; do you have an eating plan or just try to eat as much as you can? Just wondering :)
OT I have a healthy BMI but am close to being overweight, so I'm trying to lose fat and become lean. My current plan is eating clean for 5/6 days a week and doing at least 30 minutes of cardio and strength training everyday.

i've lost 8 1/2lbs since i started losing weight on the 6th of this month. i've set myself a target of 2st, but i wanna lose more than that. i know i'll give up if i don't reach my targets that fast though so i've decided to set it for 2st then when i reach that, i can set another one, etc. i'm over half wat to losing my first stone already though so wooo

I have no idea how tall you are but I'm not surprised, 6 stone 9 is nothing!
8 stone is certainly a much healthier weight.
Come live with me for a week and I'm sure I'll get you to your goal pretty quickly haha

I'm going to try 'The Body Coach''s 15 minute meal plan thing. I'll get the book for the recipes and try and do it my own way. Now my life is more consistent I want to try and get back to the gym as well so hopefully combined with healthy and sensible eating and the gym, I'll be able to lose the weight I've been wanting to get rid of for a couple of years now.
Ideally I would like to lose about 3.5 stone however I don't really want to 'diet' so I want to try and change my lifestyle.

I don't really want to lose or gain weight, I just wanna be more healthier in general so I'm gonna *TRY* go to the gym and eat better, but who knows if I'll even have the effort to start getting into shape or not, nevermind continue it xD

I've about 10 pounds to lose but finding it really hard. Finally got rid of the christmas chocolates and found my mojo though, so just recording stuff through myfitnesspal. I generally walk around 5 miles daily, and just joined back to the gym after 4 months off. Can't go mon and weds though so really have to force myself to go the other days.

HEY i hate to be a buzzkill (sorry :'() but if you really are losing a lot of weight like that without making any real changes to your diet or exercise regime you must go and visit your pharmacist/GP soon. It's probably nothing and i'm sorry to sound so doom and gloom omg but always better to be safe than sorry :P
I'm very unhappy standing on scales so my plan is to drop a dress size and generally feel healthier. I'm writing down the food I'm eating every day and need to keep an eye on my portion sizes and cut down a little bit slowly over time.

i want to gain weight too. i even have some dumbbells now ill start soon
need to eat more and better but it bores me/i dont have enough appetite to increase calories/good food doesnt fill me
i ate really clean for like 6 months last year and exercised a tiny bit and my body looked better but i didnt track my weight. i did notice my body looked cuter and more toned tho

I used to be around 6 stone when I started work in 2012 and now I'm around 9 stone - whenever I get weighed at the doctors (it's required with a birth control patch as you can't use it if you're over 14 stone) they always tell me I've lost weight! I think work has helped me lose a bit of weight as I'm moving around more and going out in general more. I never plan on losing or gaining weight it just happens, my size is so weird though as I can fit in some sizes in clothes, but the same size at a different shop won't fit me. Although I have 3 pairs of Primark skinny jeans that are the same size - I have to buy the bigger pair due to having wide hips, but for some reason one pair is pretty tight, one is so loose I have to wear a belt with them and the other fits pretty perfect, but slightly on the right side. I don't really have goals, although it would be nice to be more toned.

This is a cute, supportive thread.
I've got a bit too much body fat for my liking, didn't realise how much weight I was putting on during my first year at uni. Atm i'm about 90kg, trying to get down to 80. Was 85ish when was rowing, muscle weighs more than fat etc. I take progress pics and the one I took last night I compared with my first one and i'm pleased with what I see.
Really stepped it up since crimbo where I was relatively relaxed etc. I prep all my meals on a Monday to last me till Friday then at the weekend I am a little more relaxed. Don't allow myself anything other than whats in my prepped meals though because otherwise i'd just demolish everything in sight.

Managed to put on a few pounds over Christmas as my holidays last until February :( so have pretty much laid around doing nothing much! I've been looking into buying an exercise bike since after Christmas and have decided to buy one that @welshcake; has, just waiting until I have some money! So hopefully will be back down soon :)

this prob sounds really annoying to some but i weighed myself last week and it came up to JUST SHORT OF 8 stone and i wanna be a bit less. even sure why, probably because i feel like i looked better last summer compared to now. it's honestly a case of toning up rather than losing weight... but i'd love to lose a tiny bit.
saying that, i don't eat healthy at all (i ONLY eat chips and cookies lol) or exercise so i'm actually pretty lucky to be so skinny because a lot of other ppl tht ate what i do would b overweight

Put on a pound on Wednesday weigh-in...
Five up, five down, one up, my weight is like a seesaw haha. I'm going to Slough this week though, where I will be able to diet on steak on potatoes so weighing in on next Saturday. Wanna get down to the 11st range by end of the month. (atm, I'm right at the top of 12st range)
