Weekly Weigh In Week 12

21 pounds to got to lose 2 stone

Hello again back with another weekly weigh in. 

This week I lost 1lb I'm so happy with that as I've been eating badly this week but I've been able to get in the gym a lot more this week. I've got 3 weeks to go to lose 3lbs to reach the goal I made my self over the month.

My bmi went from 31.18 to 31.09 so I'm nearly out of the 31s on my bmi. My actual weight tho I can not remember what I was I believe it's 11 stone 7 pound I'm not 100% sure but if I don't find out this week then I'll definitely let you know next week.

I still have the meal plan going but I've had my mum help me sort it out to make it better portion wise. So last night I had a breakfast bar for breakfast, for dinner I had 1/2 a pizza where as normally I just have a whole one with a handful of chips and lots of vegetables, for afters I had 100g of icecream and as a snack I had a packet of crisps. Normally I'd eat way more than that because I always feel just hungry. 

So this week will really show if restricting how much I eat helps me lose more weight than what I have been losing as well as going to the gym. Hopefully it will help me lose a few more centimetres as well to help motivate me a bit more.

Last weeks measurements:

Left arm - 31cm

Right arm - 31cm

Left leg - 60cm lost 2cm

Right leg - 62cm

Stomach - 98cm lost 1cm

Bust - 107cm 2 cm lost 

Chest - 93cm

I lost 5cm.

This weeks measurements:

Left arm - 31cm

Right arm - 31cm

Left leg - 60cm

Right leg - 61cm

Stomach - 99cm +1cm

Bust - 108cm + 1cm 

This is all I will be measuring from now on .

2cm gained. So in total I've lost 3cm so far.

Weekly Weigh In Week 11

I've been able to get in the gym a bit more and try to start eating better this week, but I'm still struggling to lose weight. 

What I was using to record my weight on decided to just delete everything it remembers so it's completely blank meaning I had to reset my 4 pounds in 1 month goal again so I've had to restart that which is a pain.

This week it's only my bmi that's changed its gone from 31.22 to 31.18 as always at least it's not a gain. 

I've finally decided that my main goal for the whole of this journey is to lose 2 stone (28 pounds) for right now and then to be able to maintain it for myself and then have a new goal. Since staring the gym I've already lost 6 pounds (3 months which seems like not much to me but I feel like I'm really trying) so I've got 22 pounds to go.

Next week I'll be taking measurements again to see if any things changed and make sure I'm measuring the right parts so it's correctly done instead of guessing.

How are you getting on let me know in the comments.

Weekly Weigh In Week 9

This week I've not been to the gym as much simply because work, getting in the way of it with me doing longer hours and being short staffed. 

I have been eating better and healthier this week though I've found myself to be eating less in the day so I'd have breakfast go to work for what seems like forever come home have dinner a cup of tea while having a snack during the day. 

Where as before I had a few snacks because I was just hungry all the time so hopefully that's past now and I can go back to eating normally instead of overeating all the time. 

This worked for me this week I actually lost weight I lost 1lb and my bmi went down from  31.55 to 31.34 which is the bmi I have been before. Really pleased with that after no weight change and then gaining a pound hopefully I'm back on track again.

My goal for next week is to lose 2lb if I can lose 1lb this week thought eating less hopefully I can lose an extra 1lb by going to the gym as well. My rotas at work are beginning to go back to normal now as people come back from holiday which means I should be able to get my self in the gym again. 

I will also be retaking my measurements next week to see if I've lost any centimetres any where fingers crossed next week I will lose weight and lose centimetres.

How is your journey going let me know by commenting.

Weekly Weigh In Week 8

I am so disappointed in myself I've gained 1lb this week it's not much but after 3 weeks of no change in weight is so annoying for it not to be a loss for me and my bmi went up to 31.55.

I've been able to go to the gym more often this week I've been eating better apart from last night which was a cheat night. I just am really wanting to lose weight faster than this and because I'm not it's beginning to make me lose interest. 

In my self I see no physical change to me even in photos I've taken but my family say they can which is nice to here. 

I realise I'm not someone who can go to the gym and just lose it like I thought it was going to be. My weight is just up and down and I don't know what to do.

The gym I go to isn't very big in the machines it has and when you compare it to other gyms you can really tell it doesn't have much there. I've started using other machines by myself but I'm a bit more worried to start with the weights because it's always busy in that part of the gym and I don't want to look stupid and be the only girl in there. I would really like to start using them but I will definitely need to be shown how to use them so I do it properly without hurting my self. 

After so long of saying I want to start measuring my self I'm finally doing it so this will be the first week for that and then I'm not sure whether I will do it monthly or weekly for it. Maybe even every 2 weeks I'll do it and check.

Left arm - 31cm

Right arm - 31cm

Left leg - 62cm

Right leg - 62cm

Stomach - 99cm

Bust - 109cm

Chest - 93cm

I have no idea if that's what I'm supposed to measure but that's what I'll stick to for now till I found out what I am supposed to do and I've decided I'll measure again in 2 weeks time so on my 10th week il update and fingers crossed this will help me realise going to the gym is making a difference in the way I look even if it's the smallest measurement. 

Thanks for reading leave a comment let me know if I've missed any measurements or measured the wrong thing knowing myself there's a good chance of that.

Weekly Weigh In Week 7

This week I've lost weight but again it hasn't been enough to make it go down a pound.

The only thing that's changed is my bmi so last week my bmi was 31.43 and this week it's 31.34 better than nothing I guess.

I really need to start measuring myself to actually hopefully realise I'm achieving more that way than in weighing because that would be really nice to see even if it's  centimetres I'd be really happy and it will probably motivate more to do it.

I've not been able to get in the gym as much again as I've done 6 hour shifts again and it's pretty much a workout at work anyway and when I do go I've forgotten to eat something so I become tired more quickly which means I can't stay there for as long as I want to.

Still would like to continue my goal of losing 2lb for next week as I didn't get to do it this week. 

Thanks for reading leave a comment on how your journey is going whether you're doing better than me or are stuck like me where you can only lose a little bit at a time and even then it really is a little bit.

Weekly Weigh In Week 6

This week has not been my best I've not been to the gym as much as I've been working 2-8 making it hard for me to go to the gym.

Food wise I feel like I've been really hungry and just eaten loads all week. I've had potatoe, chicken and beans one day a bowl of pasta bake the next and noodles but it's been the snacks that I've been falling back on with me eating crisps and biscuits nearly every night this week which is not good.

I tried to start meal planning but it's harder than I thought as I have to know what to eat that's healthy and make sure that we have at home in the first place to make sure that I can even eat it in the first place.

I've just weighed myself and nothing has changed at all my bmi has stayed on the exact same number it was last time, I'm not really sure why I haven't gained or lost any weight this week with the amount I've eaten and worked. I'm not disappointed at all hopefully with this week being more relaxed I will be able to get in the gym every day that I can.

My goal for next week is to try and lose 2lbs and I haven't once met my goal that I've gave myself yet and that's beginning to get me down and frustrate me surly I can actually accomplish one.

I'm finding my weightloss journey to be very slow compared to others on YouTube and through others blog posts I just don't understand what I am doing wrong.

If you have any tips for me to help me lose weight faster or can help me in any way of how to set up a meal plan for myself please comment and let me know I need help.

Weekly Weigh In Week 5

I've been to the gym the same amount and been at work more hours this week so I was really expecting to have lost some weight. 

I've eaten more healthy this week but I've not gained or lost anything this week. 

My bmi shows I've lost weight but not enough for it to be a pound. I still weigh under 12 stone so it seems like a sure thing that I am definitely under 12 stone and won't be going back over it.

Fingers crossed for next week that I will lose 2lbs if I keep it up.

Weekly Weigh In Week 4

I haven't been to the gym as much as I would of liked this week mainly because I've been at work 6 hours a day every day this week. 

I really should start trying to go before work and in the morning so I have enough time to do everything, although I enjoy going to the gym after work I really need to get myself more focused to turn it around so I carry on going.

This week I lost 1lb which is better than nothing and it also means since staring the gym I've lost 5lbs over 2 months and I wish it could be a bit more but right now if I can do another 2 months and lose 5lbs again then that would be great. 

I am under 12 stone and I do not want to go back to that number. Fingers crossed. Next week will be another loss for me.

Weekly Weigh In Week 3

It's weigh day and I feel like I've really tried to lose more than a pound this week . I'd feel really disappointed if I've gained or not lost any at all.

I've been to the gym everyday day this week for an hour each time while trying to be careful of what I've eaten. I'm not the best at watching what I eat honestly I'm so bad at it and could really do with some help and tips on that kind of stuff? If you know any please leave comments on what I should do.

So I've just weighed myself and it turns out I've gained a pound I'm so disappointed. The pound I lost in week 2 is the pound I've put back on so my next week if I could lose 2 pounds or more that would really make me happy. 

My weight has been doing this for a while going up and down since I've started and I'm only in this to lose weight not gain. I mean a pound is better than 2 or 3 pounds for the week so I can only be thankful for it not being anymore than that.

This week however I am back to work after my holiday and I will be attending the gym so I'm hoping this will have a positive impact on my weight and help me lose a bit. To lose 2 pound next week is my goal even if it's a pound I'll be happy I just really don't want to gain again.

Thanks for reading let me know how you're getting on with your journey and if you have any tips to share with me please do.
