Stef - I've been grinning all day, LIKE A LOON!

everyone! Awww shucks!

Toot, maybe I should put down the ice cream... since it is MY challenge!

I decided to celebrate with a shopping spree ( I only bought a charm bracelet, but it was an expensive one, with one charm so far ) and then come home for CAKE! It's so late now, I've just got in and I don't know if I can be bothered to bake! Did have a pretzel while I was out though.. Oh and I watched Batman Begins, amused me, and helped cool me down on this scorcher of a day!

Ok, I'm going to de-swell my head in a bucket of ice or something

Hi Delyth, welcome aboard!

Wow, that's a pretty big challenge you've set yourself - it works out at around 2.5lbs per week if I've done my sums right (I'm an accountant, so I've probably got it wrong )

I'm not trying to discourage you, but that rate of loss isn't healthy, or probably feasible either. Maybe you should just set yourself a goal to live healthier from now on, to eat well and improve your fitness, and just see where that gets you by November. As we all know, the scale sometimes just refuses to co-operate no matter how committed we are, and if you focus purely on the numbers, it can get terribly discouraging.

Anyway, I wish you every success on your journey, and you'll find tons of support and encouragement here .

Kind regards, Janey

Naughty frus, I haven't been reading this bit of the board, coz I missed the boat with the challenge, and I missed reading about you getting a first. Well blinking done madam, you have worked so hard!

I must admit to still laughing about you doing lat pull downs to Etta James, I just want to make love to you (posted on the exercise bit of the boards) I do hope you weren't singing out loud, you would have been beating the gym boys off with a stick!!!

On a graduation theme, I hope it's not another 5 or 6 years before you fit back into what you wear for graduation. I got two degrees, one in 1999 and one in 2000 (masters). I'm only now able to wear those outfits again (wearing my 2000 graduation skirt now as part of a trying on session).

As my weight was fairly stable through university, once I drop a bit more I'll be looking at school weights. Scary!

Well done Toot.

Hi Delyth the new sw plans don't seem to have gone down much of a storm at the group I go to but it is much more flexible.
