    Weighed today - exactly the same weight as on 1st March - will weigh again on Wed to see if I can at least have lost a few ounces before the month is out! Will try to do better in April, sorry everyone xx ps well done to those who have succeeded in losing anything at all.
    pps I have tried asking myself if I want to fit into the jeans more than I want the choc/wine/cheese etc, but in moments of weakness the answer unfortunately is always that I want the food/drink more!

  • Well, I stayed the same this month so my total loss is 1.15lbs this month :o better than a gain though, right?

    Good morning all,

    Well done again to the losers and the 'stay the samers' :D

    Well as predicted my loss has slowed down to 2lbs this week. If I'm honest I hoped I might sqeeze another week or so of big losses before it settled down, but hey, 2lbs is fine by me! :D 16lbs in total now and although I've still got a long way to go, I'm feeling really positive...I WILL do this! :D

    Well done again all of you and good luck for April for those of us who are in it for the long haul! :D:rotfl::D

    I am so determined to be good this week! I saw the pics of Charlotte Church too, wowza (friend sent me a DM link with the headline 'look at what giving up sweets did for Charlotte Church').

    March was a rather challenging month for me, sorry to report that I put on 6lbs :EasterBun down to pure over-indulging. I was in Disneyland Paris last week and those all you can eat buffets just proved too much for me. Also, DH was 40 on Monday, so we've had a weekend of eating out and drinking.

  • I have lost 2lbs this month. seems to be going slowly no matter how much work i put in but nevermind. I'm feeling better about myself since we started anyway :)

    Can just about do up my old jeans which were my favourite for about a month or 2 before i grew out of them :o Can't actually wear them yet due to horrendous muffin top but couldn't get them up at all before.

    I'm 1 lb off losing a stone since i got the wii fit (a year and a couple of days ago). I'm quite fond of my graph on it despite the little jumps everywhere.
