    Hi again,
    Thanks for the warm welcome to the thread! I know I'm not overweight, but my clothes no longer fit and I can't afford to buy new ones so I must get back to my pre-holiday weight!
    Such a pity I'm being treated to dinner tonight....:D
    I promise I'll be good after that!

  • Great poll, raph :T

    Made me smile -esp. as most people are voting the same way as me! :rotfl:

    Granny - my total weight loss is too high on the chart (sadly), and should only be 8lbs.

    Thank you :beer:

  • Hi everyone. After a few days of being good, the biscuits are calling me! Got a lecture in half an hour and I'm starving!! Might have to go and buy a fruit salad from the uni shop.
    Hope everyone is well xx

  • ok so on the 2nd sept i weighed 12 st 6 which was -2 form starting weight this time round. (i had to go back and look it up, havent been keeping note of it myself since) so i started at 12 8. this week i wi at 11 7. which means my total loss is 15lbs (can someone check my maths is that right?) which is better than i thought since i was working on 12 6 being starting weight, 8 must have seemed far too much lol.

    so i have clearly messed up somewhere with wi's and this weeks chart needs to be minus 2lb to bring everything right (guess the 11 13 i had in my head was from a couple of weeks ago then)

    can that be adjusted accordingly please granny? thanks and congrats on the scan results being good.
  • my total loss shows really quite well - but i suspect it doesn't take into account the gains, and shows when i have lost. Is that something to think about? Actually, it gave me a bit of a jolt as i realised that if i had managed to sts instead of gaining I'd have a brill loss now. Think that was the extra willpower I needed to stay away from the cream cakes today!

    OK ... here goes again. I think Lois is right and something happened when she copied the end of last month over to the beginning of this month ... or when she sent the chart to me .. or when I opened the email .. or when I saved it onto the desktop ... or when I put last week's figures in..... who knows? Bl**dy technology. I've changed the figures that you've told me.

    I haven't highlighted a SOTW as the numbers are all a bit wobbly having been adjusted to get the totals right (I hope). Please again, if it's still wrong tell me. I'd like to get it right before handing back to Lois for the last week of this month. She and I are swapping, as she comes back from Cyprus on the 26th I fly out there ... I'm just going to chuck the chart out of my aeroplane towards hers as we pass in the sky.

    Kymrob, Raphael, Starlight are fantastic losers ... contributing to a 24.5 lb loss this week.
