    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    I'd love to have the figure of that sparkly, green lady Shaggy :). All the best on your walking plans.

    I think you're right though, if there's been a few STS weeks then something has to change slightly to get the pounds shifting again. 10lb is a great loss though, well done :beer:.
    I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

    Morning everyone:wave:

    Some fantastic losses this week, Well done!

    Had a fabulous week weight loss wise in the J house I have lost 2lbs and MrJ has lost 1.5lbs:j
    This is mainly down to being run off my feet at work, studying for exams and walking at least 4 miles a day:A

    Off on a walk now so will update the spreadsheet and catch you all later.

    Might have to round up some AWOL's as we are almost ready for a new 10 week challenge:D
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.
