    Hiya everyone and well done on all the losses!!:j

    I'm another 2lbs down this week, which astonished me as it'm my TOTM! I usually stay the same or gain that week! Well chuffed! It's probably down to the fact that my car has died on me though and I've had to move my backside and walk everywhere!:o:D

    Keep up the good work everyone!!!:T

    Well done, Suze! Isn't it a pain that wine has so many calories - it's basically sugar, i suppose.

    I have a new tipple - vodka and diet lemonade. Tried the usual tonic, which I love, but the quinine keeps me awake.

    I forgot to post on sunday. Had my weigh in and i sts AGAIN. Although i appear to have lost 0.3% more fat and gained 0.4% more muscle since my last weigh in too. I have also lost inches since the last time i measured myself too:j. The bigest differences being my waist (down to 30" from 35") and muffin top (down to 38" from 42"). My wobbly baby belly is slowly going back to normal:D
    I'm dreading this weeks weigh in tho. I'm due on at the end of the week and i'm soooo bloated already, i hate it. I reckon i'll of easily gained this week even tho i've just started on the 30 day shred dvd, which has totally killed me:rotfl:, my thighs have never felt so much pain. It'd better be worth it thats all i can say.

    I usually mark that week with a little star so I know if ive gained it might not necessarily be down to eating/drinking :) im usually not too bad but I think sometimes with me its a combination of period and food lol x

    Lost another 3lbs this week, taking my total for the month to 8lbs and my overall total to 55lbs!:j

    Oh, and I'm now overweight rather than obese according to my BMI!:D

    Well done everyone on all your losses.x
