However, I know why. I had a bottle of wine over the weekend, and a Chinese with four cans of lager on Monday. Plus several packets of hula hoops and last night had chicken skewers with rice (low calorie) in the pub with a pint of Doom Bar (not so low calorie) followed by salted caramel ice cream (nowhere near low calorie!)
I think I got complacent after my first week big loss. Time to get back in the horse and show some discipline. I'm aiming for three pounds off by this time next week. Current weight 210lbs (15st 0lb).

Well done buddy. If you're having fun living a life a losing weight, that's a win in my books.
The first week of a diet is kind of fake.
You mostly lose water weight which will go back on instantly if you fall off the wagon.
Shifting 1 or 2 pounds a week sustained is very healthy so good work.
I've been away all inclusive to Turkey, and always seem to bang it on.
However, I stuck to it (aside for many many drinks !) and Ive only gained 1 pound !!!
Delighted, and back on this week
Less impressed with your choice of holiday destination, but that's another story!

Small steps, lads, small steps...
A stone and a half down from when I started on this thread and two and a half from when I started running.
I've been doing some weights as well as cardio
Weight now 16st 1 lb so I've lost a little more.
But in a huge personal win for me... I need to buy a new belt as the one I have doesn't go small enough anymore. And I've been wearing this fucker for over 10 years.

Last week: 15st 0.8lbs
This week: 14st 13.8lbs
Target. I shall be 15 st 0.0 lbs by Saturday 1st July 2017
Weekly gain on target: 1.8 lbs
Total gain towards target: 1st 3.0lbs
Distance to target: KICKED IT'S DICK OFF!!!
A big thank you to @Gassage for starting this thread. It has kicked my ass into gear and has acted as a contract between the tFB massive and me to achieve stuff.
Target: I shall be 14st 10lbs by Saturday 29th July 2017
I believe that the honeymoon period of weight loss for me is over. The days of dropping two to three pounds a week are a thing of the past; however, I am enjoying running and I'm enjoying the gym too. I expect that in two to three weeks time I'll look like Ben Affleck in BvS:DoJ. Saying that, according to the BMI Calculator, Ben Affleck was overweight at 225lbs for 6ft 4in. If that's what being overweight does for you - BRING IT ON!
BMI is total crap. The only time I've been within my correct BMI everyone said I looked like I was ill.
On Saturday I wore some trousers I hadn't been able to wear since before Xmas so it was on track until then at least !

I've tried several of the "official" Slimming World recipes and found them to be very hit and miss... some completely inedibly so, but these recipes look like they have been created by someone who loves food, so I'm hopeful. I'm going to tackle the beef curry tonight. I'll report back on the outcome.

Down to 13st 9lbs. So no massive losses but I've cut out all alcohol for the last month and don't miss it. I'm still aiming for sub 13 st.
