    Well done Rups! The first one back is always the hardest!

    I just weighed myself and have lost 3 lb :) woop woop! Although wouldn't recommend a stomach bug as the best way to loose weight.

    I stayed the same at Weight Watchers this week, which is annoying as I've been really good. In a way I think staying the same is worse than putting on because if you put on you can say "yeah I indulged and it was worth it" and obviously to lose any weight is fab but staying the same is like a waste of a week to me :(

    Oh well, have consoled myself with a KFC :o and then start afresh in the morning for it is a new week and I plan to be as good as hunmanly possible althoug with a cake sale on Friday at work and a house party on saturday I'm going to struggle... will have to be extra good the rest of the time :A

  • cbq, staying the same isreally frustrating isn't it?!:mad: It might justbe natural fluctuations in your weight, fluid retention, etc. Do you keep tabs on inch loss aswell? Sometimes I find that I've lost inches even if the scales haven't moved.

    I've decided to lower my weekly target loss to 1/2lb, as I'm fairly close to target so I'm losing very slowly. Makes me feel like I'm still achieving something! :o

    ladies you are doing well though as you are not gaining. :0) i know for a weighing in, it can be so irritating. i used to be scared at times at SW because if i had gained, i would really get annoyed! grrr

    i weighed myself last night (maybe should leave it to once a week) and i have managed to stay the same for 2 days... There was something recommended to me yesterday by a work colleague so i am going to try it and if it works, i willl let you all know. :0) No stupid diet but will let you know..:)

    last night was a bad night as we went to my mum's house for diwali and had lots of fried stuff and sweet stuff.. ermm i wont think about it. :)

    Hi ladies

    hope you are all having a good morning. Have really boring day at work... doing something that I can't put off any longer. :(

    Its the dreaded Thursday weigh in at SW. Not looking forward to it as haven't been that good. Would love to have lost 2lb, or at least the 1lb I need to get to 1/2 stone loss. Weighed myself before I went to bed and appeared to have gained a 1lb :(. Then this morning I appear to have lost that 1lb and another 1???? Think the scales are playing up big time:)

    Not sure there is much I can do today to shift any weight - no gym near enough to go to at lunch and need to leave dead on 5 to make sure I can get home in time to attend the meeting at 7pm.

    It wouldn't be too bad if I didn't go with a load of mates who are all losing lots each week - 3 or 4lbs a week. Though to be honest they are much larger than me so think it might initial come off faster for them. :(

    sorry for the long post (can you tell I don't want to do my work :rotfl:)

    I was always told that you should not weigh yourself more than once a week as your body fluctuates lots anyway during that time, upto 2lb's fluctuation a day. The same theory applies to weighing yourself at the same time each week; it gives you a clearer picture.

    I am feeling pretty good now; fully recovered from my bug and lost 3 lbs :) that brings my total loss to 38lbs now :) just another 32 to go! haha. Not sure if I will actually want to get that low but will see when I am nearer, definately another 18lb prob a bit more. Not sure if I will get there before the wedding, especially with christmas in the middle but am trying to be possitive :)

    no em. dontbe happy about losing weight when il. :( its horrible.. I had such a bad belly once after coming back from Egypt, i had lost weight and this girl said 'what a fab way to lose weight'.. i felt so sick that i actually wished i put that weight on..(and i did hehe).. so be well and eat well. :) xx

    Hadley i totally understand where you are coming from. You are so right though about other people losing weight quicker as they have more to lose. i hated that still though. :( Oh i tried to look for some SW places near me, but they are too far for me locally so i dont know.. I want to try this new thing and let you all know then. :) wish i heard about it before the wedding but its never too late.
