#BloggersWLW

FYI #BloggersWLW stands for 'Weight Loss Wednesday'; where all sorts of bloggers come together to chat about their weight loss journey, how they've been getting on and to share advice. Anyone that is trying to shift some weight will know that it isn't the easiest of tasks and that any extra bit of support/motivation is always welcome.
 
 
 
I've been making a conscious effort to eat healthy and up my activity levels for a little while and so far I've lost 10lb. Not a huge amount but little by little I'll reach my goal (which, if you're interested, is to lose a total of 41lb). 10 down, 31 to go!
 
I hope all you lovely bloggers have had a great week and fingers crossed we see some more losses next week! Until next time...

  1. STOP STOP STOPPPPP! I'm really sorry, I'm going to have to just stop you there Gemma. 10lbs is a HUGE loss. I don't care who I have to argue with, I'm so proud of you Gemma. Scrub that actually, YOU should be so proud of yourself. Just think, thats 4lbs off from a stone. A whole stone! Now I know we say don't get obsessed with the numbers and the weighing, but 10lbs in what, a few weeks? Thats such a good acheivement. Just think, Had you not been making that effort to eat healthy and up your activity you would not be 10lbs down. Then you'd still have 41lbs to go Just by taking that extra time to be aware or work harder you have accomplished that... and in my opinion ( not that I'm anyone important )... that shouldn't be belittled, it should be celebrated that its off, and not only that but you have kept it off.. because you and I and all the other #bloggerswlw are still lapping everyone still on the couch talking about maybe eating healthier.

    So you be proud of that 10lbs Gemma. Heres to the other 31 coming off for you! <3

    1. Yay the more bloggers taking part the better! That's amazing what you've lost, well done!! It takes some serious will power. I personally don't feel that I can see a difference but I think that's got more to do with how I'm feeling on the inside at the mo.

      Ahh I'm glad you like it! I'm flattered :). I'll have a look over on your blog now! xx

  7. As most of the other comments say, 10lbs is a great loss! You're clearly heading in the right direction. You don't want to rush it and lose it quickly because it's less likely to stay off then.
    Remember: It's a marathon, not a sprint :)

    I replied to your lovely comment on my blog if you want to read it:
