Congratulations! How much is a stone in US pounds, do you know? I don't really have any comprehension of how much that is.

Congratulations on the loss! I'd like to lose more weight, but seem to be in a rather difficult pattern to break.

Here's what I found for converting stones to pounds:
1 st = 14 lb

Good for you! Now, if you substitute some salads for those takeaways while the oven is broken, you will lose ever more!

EDITED to say - maybe you don't want to lose any more! I don't actully know, so please don't take offence if you are now at the weight you want to be!

Good for you! Losing weight is never easy.I lost 35 lbs last year and have kept it off.

Can't seem to lose more though. Keep up the good work!

And how much gram is one stone????

**Muddy4paws** · 10-31-2006, 10:36 AM

1 stone is 14lbs, Im completely hopeless at maths

so I cant work it out but Im 12 stone 4lbs now!!

Killearn Kitties - Im not offended in anyway! I want to get down a few sizes before I go away next year so still plenty to go!

One stone = 6.350 kilograms.

When my son was in the hospital last year and we were just about living there, I walked off about 18 pounds while eating like a horse and I haven't put it back on since... (Now, If I could only get off 17 more!!)

And here I was thinking this thread was about kidney stones.

Congrats on the weight loss!

Wow! Great job, that is a lot of weight!

**NoahsMommy** · 10-31-2006, 01:43 PM

That is WONDERFUL!!! Great job and keep up the good work (if you want to/need to). I know its so very hard to loose weight and you're doing great!

I gained about 60-70 lbs due to being put on prednisone. I can only do so much excercise due to health reasons, but WALKING is wonderful! You can pick where you do it and with music, it goes by VERY quickly!

Congratulations!!!
