    It's late and I still have work to do for an early start tomorrow so forgive me for not commenting individually, welcome to everyone new since I last posted, (this week has been a busy one !) and well done to everyone that lost this week, I just got weighed tonight and I have lost a half, which is better than I expected due to celebrating Valentine's early at the weekend and again on the night before, because I was away on the actual day. Then a work colleague and I went out for a lovely Italian meal to make up for being away on the 14th so I have one more weigh in before my holiday. Good luck for next week everyone.:smileyhea

    Haven't been on for a while, but SW didn't go very well on Tuesday, I put 2lbs back on. I did go to Cardiff overnight with DH though and had a very nice night so am not complaining. I'm sure I didn't eat and drink 2lbs of calories though! Unfortnautely, it wasn't water retention either though (if only!).

    Anyway, back on it, and am at 4lbs weight loss in 4 weeks, but still a loss!

    GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!

    Well Done to everyone that lost this week, and to those who gained or maintained well done too, for coming on and admitting. At least you know where it went wrong this week and can put right next week. I'm expecting a gain this week (Monday) as its been a busy social (and chocolate!) week for me. Back on the straight and narrow after the weekend
    Have a good weekend all and as cheekymole says "Stay Focused"!
  • My weigh day should be Friday but I've cheated and weighed on a Thursday the last 2 weeks. Yesterday I weighed 10st 10lb which meant I've lost 2lb. Hubby lost 5lb! We were really confused because we'd both really pigged out this week and felt bloated so we couldn't understand it.

    Today I thought I'd better go back to Friday weigh in and weighed 10st 8 - 10st 9lb (flicking between the two). We put a new battery in and tried the scales in lots of different positions on the wooden floor and even took it downstairs on the tiles - still settling on 10st 9lb. Hubby then had apparently lost 8lb!

    We really can't understand why it's saying we've lost all this weight in last week.

    Do you think it's worth buying new scales and getting manual ones instead of digital ones?

    Or should I just be pleased. :confused:

    I really have been bad this week which makes no sense. (shh, but yesterday I got really stressed and was hungry and when I stopped for petrol I bought 4 choccy bars for £1 and ate the lot. Total binge I know. :o ) So how could I possibly have lost the weight!?

    Having read this thread you have all inspired me to lose some weight. I have been trying half-heartedly but now it's time to get it done. Hubby is getting promoted at work and so there will be lots of formal functions requiring me to wear ballgowns and cocktail dresses and I don't want them to be size 16!!! Thank you for your inspiration.

    only lost 1/2 lb this week
    bit dissapointed as I've done loads of exercising
    all I can think of is the amount of cough and throat sweets I've eaten this week :(

    Alfietinker, you may have lost this week but it is possible that it will catch up next week so you will either maintain of gain. I hope this isn't the case but try to be better this week and fingers crossed.

    and just think how gorgeous you'll look in those ballgowns. The belle of the ball

    Glad - 1/2 lb is better than nothing, my consultant told us in class that cough medicines etc are full of sugar so I've suffered this week instead of taking anything. But as I say, you've lost so keep going...
