Thanks knitwitch that's a good idea, I'll start again from this week and keep my 7lb goal x

Not a problem, sometimes we need to retrench and start afresh!

Hello Everyone. I have been lurking for a while picking up quite a few tips - thank you all! I would like to join in the challenge if you guys will have me. Some days I can be good and others I am not. Would like to lose 1lb a week and I'm not sure how many weeks are left. Could you put me down on the list please knitwitch. Can't seem to do colours, sorry. Xx

savesummore, do you mean half the box of chocs, or 1 or 2 chocs?
What does it say about me that I immediately read it as a half box? :rotfl:

Chloris, i think including this weekend we have 5 weigh ins left.

Another day around 1500 cals, it will be interesting to see what the scales say on Friday.
Today was muesli, egg sandwiches, and pasta bake for tea.

I walked up a steep hill for 20 minutes and was really chuffed that I didn't have to stop, and my legs felt okay. And then 25 minutes back down. I was a bit apprehensive because my osteopath has told me that walking on hills is worse for my back than on the flat, but I really wanted to test myself.
The last time I went up this hill I was 3 stone heavier, and it was definitely easier today. Makes it all worthwhile to think I'm making a difference to my fitness
