    I've been Money Tipped!
    I'm having a go at slimming world at the moment. I went years ago and kept all the books so am now going it alone. I tried the calorie counting website but couldn't really get to grips with it - I tend to guess amounts rather than weigh them! :D I prefer it when you can eat what you want of "good" food rather than calculate how many calories are in a slice of cake and how many biscuits you are allowed.

    If you fancy giving weightwatchers a go the Quidco offer is still on - 3 months membership works out as free after cash back and there is a food tracker on there that gets you into good habits.

    HTH.

    Yea think ill do weight watchers again it did seem to work for me and i actually felt like i was eating loads! got weighed this morning and im 72.1kg which is 159lbs or 11st 5lbs!! :mad: Not as bad as I thought but still a bit away from the 10st 7lbs I was last year lol oh well think I might join Mays challenge for the last week?

    The Dragon - can you put me down for loosing 2lbs this week?? thanks
    :p

    Hi again all,

    Dunno what's happened to the weather this morning but the sun seems to have gone here...ah well, it was nice while it lasted!

    Well done to the losers again. :)

    Tara-fab to see you sounding so positive-all that exercise has GOT to be doing something! Everything crossed for a loss for you!

    Well after last week's STS, I'm delighted to report a loss of 4lbs this week! :D That takes me over my 2 stone loss, to a total of 30lbs now, and 8lbs in May. I'm really pleased with how it's going, but I still have a long way to go and am definitely still here for the long haul.

    The thing I'm doing quite well this time, which I've never managed to do in the past is to allow myself a day off for a special occasion, then get straight back to it the day after. I'va laways been an 'all or nothing' type of person and in the past would just 'give up' if I'd had a day of unhealthy eating. I think it really is about being in the right mindset to do it. Speaking of 'days off', I have a meal out with work tonight, so plan to eat sensibly but without being too restrictive. It's good that it's on weigh-in day so I can get back to it tomorrow and hopefully show another loss for the final week of May! :)

    Have a fab final week everyone! I'll report my final loss for May next week and see my fellow long haulers on the June thread!

    CG. x
    New Year, New Me!!!
    Weight loss mission 2012 has officially begun!!
