I haven't been on here for at least a year or two.. but am back in the same situation! I'm currently about 140 pounds give or take a bit (official weigh-in tomorrow morning *gulp*) which is pretty much back to where I was. I'd like to get down to 112 pounds, hopefully by summer! Oh boy. So I am in need of support :) So thought I would re-start a diary. Short and sweet for now, peace out :)
 
Depending on what you consider summer, I think 28lbs is do-able with some serious will power (easier said than done eh!) :)

Good luck with that... I guess from your post you know from previous experience what works for you? x
 
Hello Cookie Monster.

I read in many places that loosing around 2 lb a week is healthy so in 14 week of extreme commitment you can be there.....in 2006 I lost 22 lb in 12 weeks and the last few week I had hit what I tought was a plateau (actually was my baby girl). You know what worked last time, this time you just need to work on a plan that you can keep so that you never need to lose again!
 
Thank-you everyone for the replies :) Wasn't expecting to come back to so many, has made me smile!

Sorry I haven't been on in a while (good start, eh) but have been busy with work, but thank you for visiting my diary and sparing your time to write to me! I would have got on here sooner if I had know.

So, I weighed myself this morning and was 139 pounds - about 7 pounds lighter than I was expecting to be honest! I'm 5ft3 - 5ft5 by the way (I think, I'm quite short any hows). Over christmas I was ill and went down to 133 pounds (lightest, I have been in quite a while, but then when I got better it went back on, surprise, suprise).

Enough with the whinging, good luck to you all! :)

I'm aiming for the start of July as having lost the 28 pounds (But obviously if I don't lose it all by then, not the end of world :)) But as you say, easier said than done!

Thank you :) Yes, I'm pretty confident with what works with me - just need to get on and do it!

Hi, thank you for your post :) Yes, I've read that a lot too, would be nice if it worked like that - but I am going to give it all I got to attempt it! Definatley agree with you there, I find I'm learning from my mistakes hopefully so that they never happen again and whilst I can catch things in the bud!
 
Hi,

I thought I'd just post that I'm not going to be using this anymore (lack of content hints this). Not that I'm going to stop with the dieting but with farming I just don't have the time for this site. Good luck to you all though, you're all really inspirational people! :)
