WEEKLY WEIGH INS - Sundays

Hey Starbuck - another 2lbs you are doing fantastic - well done.

Wonderwoman - excellent you only have 7 lbs to go until your next target and the way you are going that will come around really quickly.

Hey HH- well done that is great that you have got to 2 1/2 stone - well done , here's to getting to 11 stone before your holiday.

4Angels - you have so many demands on your time with your family it must be hard to get the energy to focus on yourself - you will get back to it - you have made a great start you just need to pick your time to get back to it - got every faith in you

Thanks Irnbru x.

Welldone Wonderwoman & Hilltop Heidi on your losses this week!

Thanks for your words of encouragement Irnbru!

Have a good week people!! xx

Weighed in a 1lb heavier today at 250lbs. Ate some much food yesterday (well it was my birthday!) So I know I can get it off quickly, annoying though as Friday morning I was 248. Had a really nice meal though so happy and full.

Knuckling down to weigh loss now though. My holiday is in 192 days, so I've decided if I can lose 1lb a week which should be doable I'll lose 27lbs before I go. Obviously I'd love to lose 2lbs a week, but I'd be happy if I could maintain a 1lb loss a week.

Hope you had a lovely Birthday Starbuck! Your hols is certainly a great incentive!

3lbs on but I am due on and feel bloated (sorry too much info!!!)

Managed to break the cycle of having a Chinese and bottle of wine on a Monday and feel like my head is in a better place foodwise at the moment so I just need to get the motivation for exercise now!!!

Well done Starbuck and 4angels, it sounds like you both have a very healthy attitude! And Happy Birthday Starbuck Glad you enjoyed your day.

Lost 1lb this week. Am pleased to have lost but am a bit narked its only 1lb as I came in under my calorie target for the week (and gave up some nice stuff to do it!) and smashed my exercise target for the week.

Oh well, another week - here goes! Not looking like I'm going to make my target now though.

Well done on your loss this week Wonderwoman!!

Well done everyone - I've been off sick for a week so thats why Ive been quiet lol.

Happy belated birthday Starbuck xx

Hope you are feeling much better now Stella xx

Thanks 4angels - still feeling very very shaky but at least Im back in work !!

Happy belated birthday SB sorry I didn't catch you on the day - my internet has been down. commiserations on the weight gain SB & 4 Angels - minor blips - you will be back on track in no time you do so great

I have been hammering the gym - 14 hours this week, body combat class, aquafit, stairmaster, and treadmill, cycle and crosstrainer and altogether 6000 metres swam and lol at only losing 1lb - but i lost 3lbs last week so thats ok. it's still going down.

my clothes are getting looser all the time now

Well done on your loss Irnbru! You do so well with your exercise and put me to shame!!!

well done Irnbru - the thought of exercise kills me at the minute - having trouble getting up and down stairs at the min - someone has to come with me in case I fall down

Thanks 4Angels and Stella - I am quite pleased with myself

Stella that sounds really bad - is it an inner ear thing?

No, I had a really bad stomach bug last week and yesterday when I came back to work I developed a very bad case of the shakes and kept going dizzy when I stood up. Im a lot better today though and hopefully as the week goes on it will wear off. Fingers crossed.

oh yeuch that sounds awful fingers crossed you are on the mend now is that hot new fella of yours looking after you then?

It is pretty bad - but hopefully I'll be back to normal soon !!

The hot new fella came round Sunday (looking very hot) and seeing him again tomorrow

I think I'll leave weighing in now till Sunday and just try and get on the mend !!

Yes just wait till you feel more like yourself and then check next Sunday great you are seeing him tomorrow

I know - can't wait for tonight - it's his birthday as well so doubt I'll be good tonight

Diet wise I meant !!!

hahaha - enjoy whatever you end up doing

Well diet wise I was quite good - he said he was starving after the pub , but as many of you will know I dont keep food in due to the lodgers snaffling so we ended up having - wait for it................. mash and gravy!!! at about 12 o clock - I had the smallest portion ever as I'd gone past the hunger pangs by then but he keeps on at me to eat so .......... Quite good though as I thought he'd want a takeaway.

Did have a few drinks but also had some exercise (wrestling match at about 2am on living room floor) and lots of dancing (also in living room)

a good night had by all - problem is now I'm in work and he's still in bed !!! I know today is going to drag sooooooooooo much!

Glad you had a good time .

'Wrestling' is that what you call it these days? No I know what you mean really hun I'm just teasing you (all counts as exercise anyway - doesn't it?!!!)

Mash & gravy - yummy! I have slightly quirky things like stuffing sandwiches (cos I can't do turkey or chicken but really love stuffing!!!), banana & honey sandwiches (reminds me of being little)...can't think what else now...when I used to eat fish I'd have fish, chips n gravy!! ....or curry sauce yum yum (got laughed at when I lived anywhere other than the North though!!!)...made myself hungry now...damn!!!!!

Me thinks you need to get 2 fridges Stella, one for the lodger and one for you that has a lock on it to stop it being raided by her!!

Well I'm paying for the wrestling today - as you know I havent been well so thats my excuse for not winning but I had a bloody good go - I've woken up with a massive bruise on one wrist and my right wrist feels like Ive twisted it. Consulation is I've just spoke to him and he's feeling it too!!

I alos love stuffing sandwiches, chips and gravy or curry sauce is just yum.

Strange you should mention the fridges as I had exactly that conversation yesterday with someone at work - spooky

Damn now you've mentioned chips thats all I want

Sorry hun bout the chips!!!!

Ouch on the bruises...but at least you gave as good as you got...I hope people who know you well don't think he's being awful to you if you end up covered in bruises!!!!lol

At least if you had 2 fridges you wouldn't be tempted by what you saw in her fridge and she shouldn't go in yours...might be well worth the money you never know!!!
