think i'll set myself a mini goal of getting down to 63.5 by next weigh in which would mean i lost a total of 7 pounds since start, would be well chuffed with that
Totally forget about weigh in! I'll post my update in the morning.
11st 4lb for me. Right direction. Back on the drink - might be the answer!
I'm 5' 11" approx 12.5st and I'm getting away with ~1500 calories Monday -> Thursday. Not a hope in hell I'll do it at the weekend (Approx 1900 ~ 2100 calories) . But then I'm more active at the weekends.
Snacking is the big issue. Trying to find something that's low calories. In work I go through a lot of baby carrots. Virtually no calories. Celery is even lower but I'm not that desperate yet :D
I weigh myself as a matter of habit every morning; readsomewhere that people who weigh themselves regularly control there weightbetter. What no sh1t Sherlock!!!! Lol :w00t:
1500 cal seems low for a man, I have not checked my calorie intakefor years but when I was a bit of a gym bunny I am sure I was on 3000 a day.

I've read similar Tahr. However, what I read specified that once a week was fine. What gets measured gets managed.
Ideally the same day at the same time each week.
There's a Doctor on this thread somewhere, I'm sure he can clarify!?
For weight loss I would not have thought so. When I doing some decent marathon training I'll be on a lot more than 1500 calories. I'm just trying to reach my target weight before I get into serious training. I have a 25km trail run at the end of March so come middle February I like to be clocking up a few 15 mile runs which will require higher calorie intake at the weekends.Quote:

A few beers while watching the footy or after a fell race is my achilles heel. Sunday will be the big test. I have the Mickleden Straddle followed by Man City v Liverpool. It could be the perfect storm for me :thunbdown::DQuote:
