    Hey everyone,

    Well done on the weight loss sarah :D I've regained 2 :mad: so now have to lose 3 in the next 7 days :eek:

    You're doing really well on the NSD's Lula.

    Misslauren have you moved back to save some cash? It's a good move in that way.

    Had a v lazy day today and just enjoyed ogling fit men on DoI. Off to bed now X

    Forgot to say well done on the weight loss Sarah, I know you feel like you have ages to go but every 1lb loss is a lb closer to your goal! :j And the wisdom is that if you lose weight slowly you are more likely to keep it off :beer:
    I've got my own flat :j:j

    Now I have to pay the bills :eek:

    And feed my interiors addiction ;)

    I do feel like I have ages to go:o I think that you are right about it being easier to keep off if you do it slowly, I know for sure that when I am down to my target I am never letting it get like this again, remembering how hard it was will keep me on the straight and narrow. :o

    I am always putting it back on and then losing it again, so annoying:(. It has taken me about 30 weeks to lose 17lb:o so it's about half a pound a week. *rolls eyes* At this rate it is going to take me a year to lose the rest.:( I do feel absolutely committed to doing it though and it has taken me a long time to get into that frame of mind so I am determined not to waste it:). I will fit into those clothes:D.

  • Well done on all the weight loss guys :)

    In about 20 minutes I'll be ringing an estate agent to put a stupidly cheeky offer on a house...yikes! It's all getting a bit real and scary now.

    I moved home two months ago and love it...so far anyway!!! :D

    It has been good... and a bit of a upgrade ;) Gone from a single bed to a queen and have doubled the size of my wardrobe... although that's a little dangerous for me, its the only thing that had curbed my shoe buying! :eek:

    Not really.. I wasn't paying board at nan's and it was a walk to work, so I'll actually have to spend extra, although I'm hoping living here will cut down my other spending. One does not find $250 on the central coast, or $70+ meals... most of the time anyway!

    It's mainly to concentrate on my uni work and get my license... its about an hour a way from most of my sydney social life so I'm hoping to put my head down and get everything finished, or almost finished, this year :A
