Aw Lou I know how that feels, I had a month off exercise last year because I had an evil infection that I couldn't shift, I'm sure you'll be feeling better soon.

MC I know what you mean, I always get down if I don't lose as much as I wanted to, I am gradually learning that a small loss is better than no loss.

I've done something silly in that I've worked out that if I lose just under 2 pounds a week I'll be at target by August, it's silly because whenever I have an aim or a target I always mess it up. I'm fed up of messing up though so lets see how it goes hehe!

Morning Ladies, it's WI day for me today.....I'll post tonight if and what I lost.

Helen, I know what you mean, setting myself a goal is just a waste of time, cause I always blow it....I'll have a goal in my head and if I make that I'm pleased.

Lou, I hope you feel better soon, chestinfections are nasty...brrrrr. Fea well done on the loss, thats fab....only 3lb to go to your revised minigoal!!! You must be well pleased.

My plan of not having any naughties in the house seems to be working so far, the only thing I've been snacking on is snackajacks lol. Made a nice Tagliatelle with arrabiata sauce last nite and put some chicken mini fillets on the george....was absolutely delicious and super easy.

I am so fed up, I maintained this week, I know a maintain is better than a gain but I'd worked hard and exercised and really felt I'd done well. I'm stuck just about the 15 stone mark which is where I got stuck in November and only just got passed it before I put my weight on over Christmas. I hate 15 stone!!!

Anyway....

Congratulations on the loss Fea that's great!

Hope tonight goes well Moonchild.

Thanks MC. I think it's the 15 stone thing that bugs me more than anything else hehe!

Well, just back from my WI and I only lost 1 lb....I know I know, a loss is a loss, but I expected more from it. But I will try to cut out on bread this week, so hopefully that will help. She let us try the ryvitas with fruit, mmmmmhhh they were quiet nice, and 2 for a Bchoice...will definetely get them with my next shopping trip......

Well done on the loss Moonchild. I like those ryvita minis, the salt and vinegar ones, never really fancied the fruit ryvitas. Went to BLT last night and it was packed, everyone feeling the post Christmas flab I guess lol!

Thanks for the support Lou, I can't believe how close we are in weight! It's a good idea to do it together

I'm still annoyed about the small loss, but I'm not going to give in. I'll stay on track, and hopefully the next WI will be a lot better. Don't have any meals coming up anytime soon, so I should be fine. Will probably go out for lunch tomorrow, but definetely stay on plan. Hopefully the weather will be ok again this weekend, so we can go for a nice walk somewhere.....

If it's a small one, I always fail my challenges, something fun and doesn't have to be to do with the amount we lose

Hi guys, had my WI on wednesday - lost 3 and a half pound, it was my first week but i did have a night out where i spent 36.5 syns on vodka!

Not going too well this week, work are starting to give me lunch for example today pasta (which id fine) but a beautiful fat bread roll with butter and some chocolate cake!! ARGHH!

I did eat it so not so much vodka for me this weekend!

Helen you can really tell the difference on your pics..use it as inspiration! Well done
