    Hi all

    sorry have not been on again for a few days but have been so shattered. My little one has his back teeth coming through and has been having a week of disrupted sleep with them, therefore so has mummy lol Poor thing its so sore for him - but normally its over in a couple of weeks. However, as a result my willpower and resolve have flown out of the window (or maybe the tooth fairy has nicked it :confused: )

    Anyway suffice to say that my bad 2.5 days actually has turned into a bad week and its weigh in tomorrow :eek: but never mind its a new week on wednesday and I have already planned all my menus for next week so no matter how tired I get I know whats for brekkie, lunch, dinner and snacks (lol that sounds a bit obsessed) but I know it will work for me as being organised is half the battle.

    Well done to all that have lost last week - 18lbs thats a great collective loss again and never mind to those who didn't - tomorrow is another day. Welcome to the newbies I am sure you will enjoy the thread.

    Have a good holiday Mrs Yatesey and well done on being 1/2 lb off your target - go and enjoy yourself.

    I lost another 1lb this week, that makes 3 stone 6 1/2 pounds so far. Hopefully I should get my 3 1/2 stone award next week.

    I got asked to help out today, sitting taking the money. Did I hear somewhere that if you are one of the helpers that you don't have to pay? Or did I imagine it? Anyway, it will mean that I will have to stay, even if I put weight on! lol

    Honey,
    You should've got a free pass too as the current offer is bring a friend and get a free week (I think)

    Sue,
    Fantastic, well done
    I haven't got one!

    Hi, i had my weigh in last night. 4.5lbs off. Star week last week, and lots of take-away. Feel more positive again.
    Still doing my scrap book, so will ask OH to take next lot of photos today - not taken any more since i started.
    I am also going to start writing a few goals in there - been lazy recently and need to get back on track. The way i figure it though is that life goes on and if i thought i would never eat another packet of crisps of drink alcohol, then i would fall off the wagon big time. I have failed so many times, this time around i am beating myself up less when i have a blow out, and just getting back on track again the next day.
    Reading this thread helps so much, as i know i am not alone in finding some days harder than others. Thanks guys, and continued good luck!!!

    Yes well done, I have to say I do like Lydia's scrap book idea - what kind of things do you put in it if yo udon't mind me asking? I have hidden a bit of paper in a draw with my goal weight on it, which I've scrubbed out and changed about 8 times:rotfl:(makes it easier lol!) but Ilike the idea of a scrap book or journal or something to keep me going.

    I've just had a solero and they're massive and only one point yum! (WW by the way)

    I got my years old bike out before and hosed it down, pumped up the tyres and that. Just working myself up to go out on it now, isn't it daft I find the older I get the more of a scaredy cat I am!

    I used to go the gym all the time, but after a neck injury in Feb (feb! and still waiting for physio!) I haven't done any. Got the weight watchers claire sweeny dvd too so might see what that is like too.

    Now where's the stabilisers...

    15 months, so not a quick loss, but I am really starting to look and feel different. I noticed the bit where the grill pan sits on was broken yesterday. dh says it has been broken for a while, I probably haven't bent down that far for years!
