Holiday off work, family funeral etc meant I didn't lose weight this month.:o
I did win gold medals for my martial arts this month though, and am planning on a walk to work tomorrow,so not a totally terrible month.
Now I'm off to join the May challenge.:oMember of the first Mortgage Free in 3 challenge, no.19
Balance 19th April '07 = minus £27,640
Balance 1st November '09 = mortgage paid off with £1903 left over. Title deeds are now ours.0 -
I sts last week and last weigh in will be on Sunday and I have fingers crossed for a little loss.

Well done to all the losers and here's to May! :j0 -
Hi all, gonna post here and then off to bed, my new evening job just leaves me shattered! I've had my DS (who's 2 1/2) poorly all week with d&s so has been a very stressful week for me.The only plus of this being that i've not needed the car to go to any playgroups, so have walked all week (school run).
I have been comfort eating a little bit, so hopeing that i've stayed the same this week. I need to lose 4lb in the next 3 weeks to reach my target of 2 1/2 stone, for my holiday at the end of the month.
Never too late - only just starting to 'feel' slimmer, but its not noticable yet! Still got a very loooong way to go!
Will check back in in the morning with a weight update.
Nite nite zzzzzzzzzzzz!!:money::money::money::money:
I love to save money0 -
Well - I lost ½lb! So my grand total for April is 0lbs loss!!! But it's better than a gain.
I noticed last night that I need to lose 4lb to make my 10% target at WW. So I am aiming for that in the next 2 weeks, keep your fingers crossed for me.
Now about to sign up for May challenge.
Well done, good luck to everyone xNeed to sort my life out! :T0 -
Sorry - I've not been around much recently! I'll try better with the May thread though!

I finished April at 9 Stone 13 lbs. Which means I finally broke the 10 Stone barrier! :T:j On a down note though, I only lost 2lbs in April!! :rolleyes:
Must do better in May! Only 2 months to go 'til I need to don that Bridesmaids dress

WELL DONE to those who have managed to lose weight this month and 'bon courage' to all.
I got off to a ropey start. After declaring my weight on here; I was weighed at the hospital and discovered that my scales were being kind and I actually weighed a stone more (thought I felt larger than my weight suggested :-). Anyway I haven't done a re-weigh but think I've lost something (mainly by walking rather than jumping on buses) and am now fairly happy how I'll look on Sunday as a bridesmaid (with the aid of some magic pants!)
Can I join in for May and I'll do a weigh-in at my surgery so I know where I'm at?0 -
Lost a pound in my final weigh in for the month so I think that means I am still +1lb for the month :rolleyes:. I will lose more in May!!0
