A question.....
Has anyone been wearing their fitflops a lot? I have as I think they are so comfy but this past week my ankles have been swelling like you wouldn't believe, and this is not a problem I have ever had before.
Is there a link I wonder?
I am going to try not wearing them for the next 3-4 days and see if the ankles are any better. I am really cheesed off as my ankles were the only nice skinny thing about me!!!!!

Theres lots of reasons your ankles can swell , warm weather is one , doing to much , have you been doing more than usual as that can effect them , the best thing to get them back down is to raise you feet up as you sleep with a couple of pillows .safc forever

got a 0.6kg gain this week folks. starting to feel a bit more on top of things but the stress is really getting to me and the eating is going crazy. I'm woring on reining back and getting under control but it's easy to grab at bad food at the moment. They've changed my job at work AGAIN - the good news is i now longer have the same boss, the bad news is, i still have to do all his work, i just get told to do it by someone else. also rather worried about scarborough - the battle is being dealt with so thats sorted, but i;m supposed to be managing the camp and the timings and keeping everything else going and i have only a hazy idea of what that entails.0

Last day of children at school today HOORAY so tomorrow can go in to lovely quiet peaceful building and get on with all the paperwork that's piled up.
So no more excuses .... this week is a 2lb gain :eek: but from today (not tomorrow, thinking positive) it will be planning ahead and eating with care.
Yes, Beanie, actual bruises and scratches from a boy who decided he would kick, punch, scratch anyone who came within his reach. Oh yes, and throw tables and chairs around the room. As head I can't ask anyone else to deal with things like that so I'm the one who gets the injuries. We've all been trained to deal with these things but it's not fun. Not fun for him or his parents either.0 -
Hi everyone, I'd really like to join this group, I'm really struggling to get my head in gear to lose the 2 stone I want to. Last year I lost 2stone with Slimming World but I think I'v put on half a stone again. I'll weigh myself at lunch at Boots and hopefully that will shock me into being good!0

Morning all
Quite a few people seem to be struggling at the moment, and I know from personal experience that it's very tempting to 'lurk' in difficult times, so well done for sticking with it and sharing about it.
Crazychatter - hi, welcome to the thread, feel free to join in with the chat and ask for any help or advice. Are you still following the Slimming World plan? There are a few other people here who do too.
Grannynise - teaching must be very challenging when you have to deal with children who behave like that, I really feel for you. I hope you're going to take some time off and relax when you've dealt with the backlog? I quite enjoy being in the office out of hours - you can really get stuck in without all the interruptions and distractions.
Delly - hi stranger, nice to see you again :wave:. Well done with the potty training, it sounds like you've won that battle.
Missy - there was a place called Missy not far from where we stayed in France!Where are you off to on holiday?
Welcome back starlight too and well done for losing 5lbs.
Well, better get on with some work!
Catch you later

Granny - that sounds a tough situation for all.
Missy - glad to hear you feel able to relax for a bit:T . Enjoy L'alp Duez:D .. Caught OH online looking up ' a guide to the tour de France for idiots' online last night so the nightly forced viewing is reeling him in. He wanted to know if there was a coloured shirt for the best 'can't quite be ar**ed to get up this mountain today' rider :rotfl:
Delly - great to hear from you. It is so hard sometimes not being able to eat without thinking. The thinking and planning wear me out sometimes. When motivation slips away, I wonder where it goes on holiday?I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once0 -

There must be something in the water around here 'cos I've had a 0.5 lb gain^^ It cannot be anything to do with all the takeaways I've been living on for the 4 days before I got weighed
Been away from work for 2 days, back in this morning and I couldn't find a thing! Better get to it.
I usually only read / post on the thread from work so I've got some catching up to do which I'll try to do later.
Take care everyone :T0 -
Thanks for the welcome, I'm not sure about going back to the classes, I'm bit strapped for cash at the mo but I'm going to try to stick to the plan anyway. I'd love to join your chart, thank you!0
