    Cheers faithless. Made some very interesting and useful reading. Will have to look at the link properly but it's starting to look like a corset may to be pricy at this point!!

    May go for a bardot style top instead as they've always suited me (and they can cover me arms up!!)

    PS OH just ordered wedding rings - yipes!!

    If you google corsets, you can get them quite a bit cheaper, but use the info about how they're made on the Vollers site to make sure you're buying a properly made corset, and not a 'fashion' one.

    LL - TBH.. the docs never EVER mentioned to me my weight apart from once and they said you "should" try to excercise! I've done this off my own back... My blood pressure has come down since I've been exercising and when I asked what could increase it they said.. Do you smoke? No Do you Drink? No Do you eat alot of salt? No I don't think so and finally It could be your weight? lol I think that was FIRST on the list! No last!

    Hi All

    I'm pretty sure I have got a pound off this week but couldn't go to WW because I was working, I'll have to wait and see what happens next week.

    Feel positive that I will be under 11 stone in time for my hols in just over 5 weeks- i can't wait.

    Just come back from SW weigh in and have lost another 2lbs!
    Very pleased as I have been away for 1 night with work at a hotel and wasn't particularly good, and then went to Wales to see my parents for the weekend. I have tried otherwise though, but not much time for exercise apart from dog walking.
    I'm away again in Prague from Sun - Weds this coming week so I'm not expecting much - I'll do my usual and take some supplies with me but I'm going with colleagues this time so alcohol may be more tempting than usual.
    Will try really hard from now until Sunday to get a head start.

    Thanks again for all of your support - feel remotivated!
    Rachel.

    Well done rachel on another 2lbs off :T Perhaps you could try spacing the alcoholic drinks with a diet coke (or similar) - that way you have a drink all the time but only use half the syns :beer:

    Jane What a brilliant idea - you're very organised. It will pay off when you're short of time.

    Congrats Jen on getting that extra pound off before your hols - what's the plan for the holiday itself? Are you going to take it easy and try not to put on too much :A or say s*d it, I'm on holiday :eek:
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!
  • Hi,
    Just a quickie tonight ... i lost 3lbs at ww last night :D am very pleased :j ... intend to try to be good this week too as realise it will be slowing now as on 3rd week. Off down to the inlaws for bank holiday weekend so have no idea how i'll manage :confused:
    They don't drink (so that bit will be easy!) but they don't believe in low fat options either ... even the coke is full sugar :eek: am in for a weekend of very hard counting!
    On the plus side we're going to Monkey World in Dorset with DD she's been looking fwd to it for ages so i should earn lots of bonus points from all the walking :p
    Well done to all the losers this week and good luck everyone for next week.
    Lou.
