@shadowcat5's idea! This is a spin off from the Weight Loss and Healthy Living thread where we can check in our weight loss between now and Christmas. I have put a poll so we can decide whether calories are mentioned or not.
Trigger warning: As this is a weight loss thread, there will be discussions of diet and exercise. If this is not something you wish to participate in, this may not be the correct space for you. This is not a space to share extreme crash dieting tips, or promote disordered eating. This is not a competition with each other for who can lose the most fastest, this is a check in where people can share their journey and support each other.

Now that the intro is done and dusted, I'll start us off. (I use kg because the scales at the gym use them)
I am 29, 5'5".
Starting weight (May 22): 106 kg/233lbs
Current weight (Aug 22): 91kg/200lbs
Christmas goal weight: 75kg/156lbs
I have 7 weeks until Dr Spoke and I head off to Lanzarote so that's my first mini goal. My weight tracking app (Happy Scale) predicts I'll be about 80kg/176lbs by then at my current rate so that is my target! The app predicts my weight at Christmas to be 71kg/156lbs, but I do intend on eating and drinking my all inclusive heart out on holiday so I'll be happy with a target of 75kg.
Food yesterday:
Breakfast:
Bacon, eggs, red pepper, peas, spring onion scrambled
Lunch:
Alpro yoghurt, nectarine, banana, protein bar
Dinner:
Baked sweet potato, tuna mayo, rocket leaves, tomatoes, olive oil
Snacks:
Sugared almonds, digestive biscuits
Exercise yesterday:
1hr pole dance class
