Hi,

I wanted a place where I can track and log my weight-loss efforts ... I am 36, female, 180lbs and have a long term goal of getting down to 150lbs which will put me in a 'normal' BMI (I am 5'6"). I am a member of a gym and have just started getting stuck into the machines, mainly used it for swimming before as I find it a nice way to chill after a stressful day at work.

My downfall is socialising - in particular, getting stuck into the hospitality at work functions etc, drinking way too much when out with friends and then stopping off at the kebab shop on the way home ... I know, I know, I am a classy bird!!

I need to stock up at the shops tomorrow - my cupboards are bare and also think about how I am going to approach this. I have a work function tomorrow night but then a clear week so will get a plan in place for Tuesday.
 
Welcome! I'm new too and can't help but relate!

I have such a problem with going out, I never seem to have just one drink. haha Classy! Good luck and hope everything goes well for you!
 
I hear ya!:iagree: I enjoy going out for drinks also. But now I just drink once a week instead. You will find what is right for you to achieve success. Boy the more I read you thread I think it is me talking. Right down to the height and weight. I have managed to loss 20 pounds so I know you can do this. Good luck! Tina
 
Hi guys,

Thanks for the welcome, well there must have been an alien abduction overnight ... I went to the gym in my lunch-hour and did my routine ... worked up a sweat and felt like I had achieved something. I am 180lbs on the nose.

Tonight is a work function - a local Italian restaurant and they are giving away free bellinis; it is also my bosses 60th birthday so will be partaking in the mother of all birthday cakes later.

Need to get myself to the supermarket either tonight or tomorrow night after work ... plan to have a bit of a quiet week in all aspects ... no alcohol, taking lunches into work, eating nicely ... yada, yada. I then have a free diary up until next Tuesday when my friend has a party at a jazz bar.
