Just joined the Leicester City council leisure centre
No excuses now as I have paid and got full use of all the facility's for 3 months
Hope you paid £32pm rather than £69 for three months...
I'm definitely in need of getting involved here, just requires the first step to be taken. I have shed substantial amounts three times in the past but all the easy steps, like no sugar, switch from white to black coffee have been done and stuck.

Why pay £96 instead of £69?

January 9th: 21st 5lbs
January 22nd: 20st 8lbs
11lbs lost in around two weeks.
Only exercised the once on Monday as well, a lovely 90 mins shift around my local park, otherwise I have been on a vegan diet, that excludes fizzy drinks, sweets and crisps. Fruit juice for my sugar buzz yo!
So my weight loss will probably be quite dramatic when i add in the exercise despite the fact you lose more at the beginning. I am going for losing a further 3 stone in three months. However, I am using that as a guideline rather than a be all and end all and will never starve myself, I may exercise more, but hooray for me if i do that. 3.5 lbs a week avg hopefully.
I was running on Monday and found myself getting back into the swing of things and enjoying myself. Going slowly enough not to make it too tough, but I could feel the inner athlete wanting to come out. It was calling me. I am now really impatient to get the weight off of me so I can spread my wings.
I wake up most mornings in fact thinking I feel great, lets run a marathon, but often find myself in the same predicament as this guy on the right.
Feeling good, can't weight for the lbs to drop.

I've started moderating my eating, but am not full into a strict routine as of yet.
I was the heaviest I've been for a good while at 245lbs when I weighed myself on Friday, so will be looking to ditch 3 stone of that by the summer, and most importantly start exercising a lot more than I have done over the last year or so.
I might even start a little blog to keep a track of my exercising, so that I feel somewhat more accountable for everything, but for the immediate future I'll just focus on getting my macro intake back to a similar level to when I was training
200g Protein
100g Carb
40g Fat
Once I've gotten a few weeks under my belt, I have a few other things I'm going to try implementing too.
Takeaways and chocolate are my two biggest failings, so they're going for starters. Anytime that I would have ordered one during the week, I will transfer the £10/20 into a savings account, and that will hopefully pad my bankroll out if I make Vegas this summer.
Glad that everyone seems to be doing so well, hopefully we can all kick on!

Good luck to you.
Yeh I had a really big takeaway problem too and never looked at how much I was spending on it. I was years eating on average 3/4 takeaways a week, and if I was to have put that into a savings account instead, it would be a tidy sum!
I notice how it gets easier as the weight goes off and how you have to really dig in early doors.
Best of luck to everyone else, I am gonna be reading and spouting random words of encouragement every time I see a post. Fully subscribed to this until all this fat is off of me.

Nice 1 Lee, a loss is still a loss. Probs just your body adjusting its fluid levels, keep going and the weight will keep dropping

1-2lb per week is a healthy amount of weight to lose. It appears to "drop off" to begin with for a couple of reasons, and when people stop losing weight at that rapid rate they lose motivation and as such give up on their diets. Remember what we discussed about this being a
lifestyle
change.
Life
being the longest thing you will ever do.
I'm out at the moment but wheb I get home I will post a couple of very simple changes that everyone should make, especially those looking to lose weight and get fit. It will sound so obvious that it might borderline your definition of condescending, but a lot of people make basic fitness and wellbeing WAY more complicated than it needs to be.

Weight loss, then. Forget the weight watchers this, slim fast that, the diet pills, that thing that electrocutes your abs, getting your stomach stapled, "health foods" and anything explicitly labelled "low calorie," or "low fat." Losing weight basically boils down to
2 things:
1. Eating less
2. Moving around a bit more
Here are a couple of things that are super easy to change, and not only will the pounds continue to fall off, but you will also feel fitter and healthier for it.
1. Drink water
The single thing that scientists look for when trying to assess if there could be or could have been life on other planets is water. This is because water is so crucial to life. Things cannot live without water. So why have you consumed 3 diet cokes, an orange juice from concentrate, a red bull, 2 pints of lager and a cup of tea with 3 artificial sweeteners, and not a single glass of life-giving water?
Try this. The first thing you do in the morning after you brush your teeth and before you get in the shower: slam one glass of water and sip another. This will be more effective at waking your brain up than a cup of tea or coffee and it will fill you up a little to help moderate the size of your breakfast portion (as well as the numerous overall health benefits that come with drinking more water.)
Shoot for 6-8 glasses of water a day. The following are also fine:
- A glass of milk a day.
- If you like tea or coffee then help yourself to a cup or two a day, but if you need to sweeten it then please use a
small
amount of sugar instead of sweetener.
- A glass of red wine or 2 per week
However, ditch the diet sodas, ditch the fruit juices (that includes smoothies) and definitely ditch the energy drinks. This is an unbelievably simple way of cutting out calories, and also improve the overall health of your entire body, inside and out. You'll be running for the bathroom every 20 minutes to begin with, but your body
will
adjust to the amount of water it's consuming.
2. Walk places
This is an easy one for me, because I make my own hours so I can pretty much pick a time I feel like going for a walk in the big beautiful fields right next to my house. I appreciate not everybody is in such a relaxed situation, and between scrambling to to get to work at 8am, getting home at 6pm, feeding the kids, and watching Manchester United lose the most embarrassing penalty shootout in the history of televised football, there's not much time to go for a leisurely stroll.
If you're being honest with yourself, though, there are probably journeys that you use the car for that you could feasibly walk, such as a trip down the supermarket to get some vegetables for next week's dinners. Also, if you get weekends off work, you can get the family together and go for a walk around the park. Also, is there really anything stopping you from setting your alarm for an hour earlier, putting your favourite songs or audiobooks on your iPod and taking a 30-60 minute walk around the block? An early morning stroll pre-breakfast is another fantastically effective way of waking yourself up to face the day ahead.
I hope this helps. Let me know how you guys get on and I'll be sure to post some more simple lifestyle changes in the future.

You need to explain what's wrong with sweetener and why we can't use our milk ration in 5 or 6 cups of tea.
I agree with your basic principle though, use up more than you put in and you will get thinner.
