Well, after both exercising hard and denying myself my favorite foods in favour of fruit, I am totally gutted to report a complete non-mover in the weight loss department.

Nothing. Not a fucking ounce.

I am totally gutted.

I know everyone said that after 40 it would be harder to both get and keep the weight off.

I know everyone said that getting sterilised would add pounds.

I don't care what everyone fucking knows. *I* know I need to lose weight and it is a struggle every step of the way.

Yeah, I am enjoying the gym. Loving it, actually. But I still expect to lose some weight after the sweat and tears.

It never *used* to be this hard.

Don't forget that exercise adds muscle weight, so at times you may not lose actual weight but your muscles will tone.

Go by your clothes and how your body looks rather than pounds on the scales - too depressing and keep it up x

It is depressing when you know you have worked hard and the scales say you have'nt lost any..However as Jack say's muscle does way more than fat..It really is a long slow process hun..

Ive been doing it for nearly 7 months now and have only lost almost 2 stone..And seemed to have starved to death..Plus 'no one' has noticed either which makes it all seem pretty pointless! Keep up your hard work and it will pay off..That's what I keep telling myself anyway..I feel your pain..I really do *sob* xxx

  Long and slow and long and slow and long and slow and ... sigh.
  
  Mine is about 4 lbs in a month. And I seemed to have stopped. No one has noticed with me either. I think I have noticed a difference. My thighs don't meet at the top anymore. But no one really sees my thighs apart from me.
  
  God, how shite. Why can't chocolate be calorie free?

    If chocolate was calorie free...It would probably taste like apples! x

It killed me to lose the weight and I swear I will never put myself through that shit again. Some days I actually gained which had me running for the prozac. You are building muscle now so that will account for the zero weight loss.

Hang in there hun. Think long term and it is a life style now. x

  It is so hard, isn't it? I never used to have trouble losing weight, which I guess is why it is such a shock this time. I would just cut out the biccies and Hey Presto! Gorgeous in a month. No so now. I'm fighting every step of the way.

      I can't imagine him with 6 stones to lose! I know he was rather shubby but no 6 stones chubby! I hope he's not ill.

        Crikey. I wonder what diet he followed, or if it was just calorie controlled? SIx stone is A LOT! Crikey - I'd be dead if I lost 6 stone!
        
        I will have a look online and see if I can see him.

        I'd be very very skinny, about the same as those pics on Facebook (I looked ill in some of them)
        
        He went to the gym a lot, I remember him 'tweeting' about it.
        
        I bought a pilates dvd the other day (well cheap, £5 from play dot com) so I'm gonna use that to help. It has burning exercises as well as core muscle stuff.

        I just went and read up on it. He mainly cut out carbs by the look of things. I eat a lot of bread. Not much in the way of tatties though. I'm more rice and noodles. I have a Pilates DVD that has never been in the player.
