Been staying with my parents, and their scales are out of action! It's a good an bad thing - it means I don't have a clue if I've gained, but it's pretty much a guarantee I have.
I will be re-united with my scales next week, and can assess the damage.
The one positive I've noticed this year, is that I've been given quite a lot of chocolate, and I haven't opened every box yet! I have so far worked my way through about a quarter of it. Normally I'd have eaten closer on half of it!0 -
Hi everyone. I hope you all enjoyed the Christmas hols. We're just back from DS1's, been there since boxing day.
Out tonight for a meal with DS2 and DIL for a meal.Going to try for 10lbs for the next challenge please0 -
It's for 3 months isn't it? If so, can I have one stone please? I'm also intending to start using my pedometer again which might help me be more conscious of getting out of my rather sedentary lifestyle.
I am going to see if I can manage 4000 steps 5 days a week for the first week in January (starting on 4th) and up it by 250 more steps each week which should mean I hit the recommended 10,000 steps in late June. Anyone else wanting to tag on counting steps to their weight loss? - at least steps are free!!!

Afraid I've not been very good over the past few days, eating erratically as and when I feel like it. For the next 3 days I have a very boring diet prior to more tests - no fruit, overcooked veg, no wm bread, and worst of all no peanut butter!!!!!:eek:. I'll weigh on Wednesday and let you know then what I'm aiming for in the next challenge, KW

Sweet dreams

Why not go half way and say 5.5lbs?
