    Really want to eat something but I've had enough today, so trying to be strong!

    Realised today that I'm three quarters of the way to target...
    I set a target of 48lbs, have lost 36lbs with 12lbs to go :)...
    (and we'll gloss over how long it's taken me!)

    See the weather's forecast to get warmer (even in Scotland?)...oh dear, some bare flesh may need to be on show :eek:


    If you could live one day of your life over again, which day would you choose?

    Well done Ellie :) three quarters gone is great :j

    I'm starving today today too, I'd eaten all my calories by 3.30 so had to go on 2 walks just to have a miniscule bowl of a pudding I'd made :D

    Hi everyone

    Well done Ellie- its doesnt matter how long it takes- im sure the longer it takes to come off the more likely it is to stay off :)

    I woke up in a fairly good mood this morning (not early enough to do my workout DVD though :rotfl:) and by 10am this morning i was in a foul mood thanks to everyone having a good old moan at work! :mad:

    I did my workout last night so at least thats something

    Today:
    B: 1 wholemeal toast no butter, 1/2 tin beans, 1 boiled egg
    S: FF greek yog, strawberries, blueberris and a pear
    L: HM tuna pasta salad with tsp of light mayo & dessert spoon ff yog, carrot sticks
    S: I have apple & banana so either (or both)
    T: HM chicken stew with jacket potato may put a laughing cow extra light cheese on it
    S: If hungry (whom I kidding I will be!) 4 melba toasts and a LC extra light cheese

    Unofficial weight-in this morning brought me out at the same as my sig, so, seems to be that all is back to normal! Nights out with alcohol and the ensuing hangover day are terrible! I think the water imbalances it, and more so, I eat a weeks worth of food on the night/the next day! But that is life!

    I sure hope so savesummore, I'm an expert at putting it back on again...I've got to learn new habits, and I think I am (slowly!)

    It's only life if you choose that life :)
    We're all responsible for our choices...I wish I'd learnt a lot younger to make better choices :)

    I've been doing some weeding, now resting the aching back so I'll be able to walk when I meet a friend later. Wish I could garden properly.

    A night out with alcohol is very much a rarity for me. So when I say, that is life, I don't mean alcohol is my life!!! What I mean is that a night out every now and again is perfectly normal, especially being a student at 21 years old.

    Of course it's normal pablakeman, wasn't meant as a criticism at all...more ruminating that if I'd made better lifestyle choices myself when younger I wouldn't be in the position I am now :o
