    I'm moving house at the moment and the new bathroom has scales. They tell me i'm 4lbs heavier than the wii fit does.
    :angry: I don't like them! hmph :o

    Wii fit says i've put on 1lb though :(

    I've been getting exercise lugging things from the old flat to the new flat. Only about 5 mins walk but it feels a long way carrying/wheeling heavy bags & boxes!
    But i've been eating biscuits. It saves moving them :p

    I might try wii fit again later, i did recently eat a big bowl of porridge.

    4lbs lost last week for me, taking me up to a total of 6 lost
    CC2 = £8687.86 ([STRIKE]£10000[/STRIKE] )CC1 = £0 ([STRIKE]£9983[/STRIKE] ); Reusing shopping bags savings =£5.80 vs spent £1.05.Wine is like opera. You can enjoy it even if you don't understand it and too much can give you a headache the next day J

    Hello!

    Very motivational reading about all of you doing so well at the whole weight loss thing, I'm not doing great on my own and wondered if I could join in with you guys?

    As of this morning I am 146lbs.

    I wouldn't mind running it for a month if you wanted. Might give me the kick up the back side to get back on track.

    However it's only a week so you could always set it up before you go away and then just update it once you're back, as you're the expert at this.
