Onwards and Downwards Continues in January 2015
Happy New Year,
I hope you all let your hair down a little for the holidays and had some fun. I was going to do something about detox but that's not really what we are about here is it?
So how about Dry January, anyone going for it?
Welcome to this month's Onwards & Downwards. We welcome anyone serious about losing weight and we offer support and kind thoughts - not magic fixes, just sensible help.
Don't forget your weekly weigh on Wednesday and remember we don't judge!
Here is last months thread

We are all familiar enough aren't we, with stories of people who lose weight only to out it all back on again. Well a couple of years ago, with your support I lost 3 stone. In 2013 I lost another half a stone and last year I maintained about the same weight all year. But this Christmas I accepted every chocolate offered and managed to gain a whopping 6lbs. If it wasn't...

This is the year for me to actually DO something abut weight instead of always talking about it or thinking about it.
January is always a dry month for me and I do it every year. I also try to avoid all alcohol until my birthday in March.
Good luck to all ABers going for the big weight loss this year. We can do it !!

All I know is that I am not back home yet and most days since the last weighing I seem to have consumed 1.5 to 2 times what I should aim for.
I tried on my shirt with the poppers at the front yesterday. When I first bought it I could not do it up, but have been able to wear it over the last year. But I think it is trying to tell me something about Xmas/New Year. The poppers won't always stay fastened ! Oh well ...

No. I once more looked at a lot on the Net, even posted a question on the Amazon site about one (didn't get a useful answer to the posed question) but nothing seems to be what I really want.
Which is consistency, accuracy, precision, and hopefully a WiFi and/or Bluetooth connection to the PC and/or mobile that doesn't demand my private data goes out to Net servers for the world to hack/browse. (It'd be so good to automatically record progress (or lack thereof) to view.)
Surely it isn't that much to ask in this high tech society ? But it seems it is. Most manufacturers/retails don't even seem to know the ability of what they create/sell.

Along with many other people, I'm getting back on the straight and narrow this morning. I've put on 5lbs over the festive season and I think I've got off fairly lightly. I've had a great Christmas, it's been fantastic. I've eaten everything that hasn't been nailed down (come to think of it, I've eaten quite a few things that WERE nailed down) and nearly everything involved cakes, chocolate, cream, cheese and alcohol. However, I'm going on holiday in just over two weeks so it's back on the straight and narrow for Lynda!

If it wasn't for you all and this thread I would be in denial about the tightness of the jeans and have no doubt that the 6lbs would just creep and creep. Instead its Wednesday and I'm in the right place! Cosying up with supportive people on the naughty step knowing exactly what we need to do.
Thank you and Happy healthy New Year everyone.
