Woah, I lost 5lbs this week. That's me officially back to my pre-'Christmas 3 week diet holiday' weight. And just two more pounds to go for my 2 stone award. I think this coming week might be less dramatic as I'm going to visit my family from tomorrow to monday (for the first time in a year and a half? - it's 11hrs from scotland to cornwall).
I'm pleased to be seeing them all again when I'm feeling slimmer than normal, hopefully I'm not heavier than when I last saw them, but I'm not sure what I weighed then.
Brill Mini Gem, well done on the loss. Have a great time with your family. Say hello to Cornwall for me, it's one of my most favourite places to visit.
well done mini gem. It is always good to see family you haven't seen for a while when you are feeling so good. I lived in stoke on trent for 5 years and didn't see much of my family while I was over there because I owned a pub and it was difficult to get time off to visit even though it was only 60 miles away. I remember coming over after I had lost almost 4 stone, I was feeling absolutely brilliant and although I didn't come over with the intention of wanting loads of compliments, I did expect someone to at least make a comment that I looked slimmer, but no one did, until I actually brought up the subject myself and then it felt like they were saying it just because they thought it was what I wanted to hear not because they had noticed and I was really upset about it. It spoilt my visit. Don't let that happen to you. You have a great time
On the positive side, the one thing it did do, was make me more determined to lose more weight and really make them notice the next time I saw them
Well done to Chris, mini gem and anyone else I've missed. This is just a quick post before work so I've not had chance to read any of the less recent posts.
I have another 2lb loss today. Should be happy with that but can't help feeling it should have been more. Still even 2lb a week will get me to target by christmas, though I don't expect it will continue at that rate.
Chris, Helen and Shell Helen..you are doing great they say you should aim for a steady 1-2lbs per week loss to keep it off so you are right on target..well done!
Well I don't know what happend to my last post! Mind you I should keep very quiet as I am indeed in the naughty corner again. 3 pound on. Still not surprising!
1/2 lb off this fortnight, however, I can't complain as the dreaded TOM is due. I am 1/2lb short of my January challenge, which isn't too bad. 3 1/2lb to go before Valentines.
I am hoping for a loss this week, pleeeeeze!! Tom is due tomorrow but I hope there is a loss cos I have lots going off in Feb and need to have a bit of encouragement, I am getting ver y 'stale' with my eating habits need some new ideas and motivation I think. WW lady not the most inspiring but Sat morning class is most convenient for me.
