is there a buddy thread anywhere that is uk i went into the general one looking for someone i could lose a stone at a time with and they were all on the other side of the big puddle
i feel if i had someone there to give me a good verbal bashing when i need it(AND I DO) or praise when and if required it would make this a lot more of a bearable sitauation, yes some of you could say i could get it in the home........ I CANT ......... nor at work .........
im ranting now, wonder if typing uses any calories up?

Hi Tootoot You've found your buddies here just join our winter solstice challenge and come back and post how you are doing and tell us if you need a good or not..we'll all help you with your goals we've got several threads going cuz we yap a lot some girls write down what they ate that day ( I do if i've been good ) and also what exercise we've done ( if any )

The 'Hello from...' thread starting in the buddy up forum then was moved here when the UK bit opened I can't get used to your new name btw tootoot/flumper

Hi tootoot
I'm not far away (in Carlisle), and would also love to lose loads before Xmas - don't feel like setting a goal, though! Too many birthdays and a weekend away before then . Can't manage any serious exercise - not enough time, though I'm trying to walk more. Are you with any programme? I'm with WW, and have got down below 13st in the past, but stress and lack of determination got in the way
Fight the good fight

Oh Carlisle meet up I remember when we tried to meet up once in Blackpool hmm that never happened. We had fun discussing it though.

im not actually following any plan......with 4 kids i have better uses for my money
ive done it before on my own (lost 3 stone ) and i can do it again , i know what to eat how to eat it when to eat it and the same with what not to eat its putting it into practise that is the problem, the last time i seriously stuck to it, i dieted for 6 days a week and had one day off to eat all the things i wanted and it worked .........so heres to it working again grrrrrrr it better

Hi Tootoot
With WW, I save two points a day (on a good week) and let go a bit at the weekend. Becos I'm so used to sticking to it anyway, I rarely go over the top . It's hard when you have kids, cos the cupboard is full of goodies ie crisps and chocolate. I survive that by getting Walkers Lites (also for hubby, (whose fault it is I'm hooked on crisps ) and SAJ lite bites and sticking to funsize choccy. I don't think I could eat a normal sized Mars or Twix any more! I know what you mean by having better things to do with your money, am beginning to wonder about the wisdom of going back to WW - although my leader is a great laugh, and v. positive .
Veggie - great idea, lets have fun talking about it!!!!
Oops, the weekend started a couple of hours ago, too much wine

[cat90]

Well, mines just starting and i'm having a beer Wish i'd known about the Blackpool "do" I might have been able to get there Veggie I vaguely remember you "talking" about it too but it did'nt jive with my visits over there now maybe we could hook up if I make it at Crimbo Where are you at? Accrington? or am I confusing you with someone else? now..i've never been on a pub crawl around Accrington that might be interesting
