Hi - can I join this group? I've been hovering around for a bit and have joined another group but it'd be nice to join a British one too!

I've been away for a week on holiday to Torquay and I came back to a 6 pound gain!!! Yikes! But then I was totally bad so it's my own fault. Too many ice creams and candy floss and chips and pizzas. I had already decided that I was off my diet for the week and see what happened. I did find the most amazing fish and chip shop in the world in Torquay though - BEST chippie chips I ever had! Even though they didn't do steak pudding.

So I now have a new goal - it HAD been 153 by Sept 3rd - back to school, but no way will I make that now. I should make 140 by Christmas but rather than have a big goal like that, I'm cutting it in half. My new goal is 152 by my birthday - October 28th.

Last time I went away in June I put on 4 lbs and lost it in the first week back so I'm hoping that at least some of this weight will come off as quickly and I will make 152 WAY before my birthday!

It's been a difficult summer weight-wise but I'm putting at least some of it down to spending more time in bed in the mornings and not working (I'm a teacher) therefore not burning up as many calories. As also some of it is down to eating ice cream! Once I'm back to work it should start dropping off again!

Oh no.....I feel that my pound from last week may be blown!!!
My mother in-law tried out all her wheat free recipes on me over the weekend and I felt a bit mean keep saying "no thanks I`m trying to cut down". Oh well...take the rough weeks with the smooth..wait and see what happens tomorrow am.

I've staggered my way to Boots to see the scales say one pound up from when I got weighed at SW two weeks ago. :mad: :tantrum: The Boots scales are always different from SW ones anyway. I can't be bothered going to SW.
