Hello!
Last month we got into two subjects near the end, both on the theme of measuring in their own way:
1. O_G had a lot of data which he was able to look back at and find interesting blips. It's really good to be able to see the whole story from time to time. Do any of you track/measure with anything like a fit-bit or other step counter, or exercise measurer?
2. How do you know if you're making progress? For example, that pair of jeans, a tape measure, or even, just what the scales say...
3. And finally, apart from here, where do you look for your external encouragement from?
That should be enough to get us started!

Just to check in - I was at 85.5KG yesterday - and I am over the moon. Cheeseburgers all round, right?
(Seriously though, I got a new bike so have been hammering that about so I imagine that's something to do with it - as well as staying healthy and off the boozy stuff)
I am well on my way to the 82kg goal if I keep this up. Which I won't most likely, as this Friday includes me cooking up something filthy for some friends.

I weigh myself every day, even though I know that is something which you are advised not to do. If my weight has gone up slightly, I tend to be more careful during the day. If my weight has decreased, I make myself three pieces of hot buttered toast for breakfast. :-)
It seems to work for me. My weight is very stable.

No I'm definitely overweight, I dropped out of the obese category quite a while ago now, but have made little progress since.
This is particularly weird. The scales tell me I dropped 1.6 lbs over 24 hours ?!?! and have ended up with a fall for the week of 0.4 lbs. Not wishing to look a gift horse in the mouth I'll take it.
Just over 27 more lbs to lose then. At 0.4 lbs a week (not that that'll keep up) that'd be another 68 weeks then. Or August 2017. (Barring any Xmas disasters.)
