    Good morning, All & welcome to Newbies/Lurkers :j

    Well, I had a nice surprise this morning, very unexpected given my weekend with the ice cream and wine! A 1lb loss for me! yay!:T I have managed to be good the rest of the week, though, so that seems to have paid off.

    My tummy feels a little off today actually, and I really don't want to drag myself to work ...it's Freeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzing! :(

    Wish I was off to a posh hotel for a romantic weekend...have a lovely time to those who are, and to the rest of us....well, housework is great, isn't it!?! :rotfl:

    Good luck on the weigh ins folks. Hope you ll get a nice surprise like I did. :)

    Wish I was going too, not even nice housework for me, I've been doing up my bathroom and the last and worst job is left for this weekend - picking out and replacing the silicone around the bath :eek::mad::eek: - my fingers are hurting just thinking about it.

    Back on subject - I'm soooo happy to report a 1lb loss this week, I was a little surprised after the post decorating glasses of wine I have been having along with the extra toast and jam as an evening snack.

    Well Done LavenderBees and Good luck to everyone else.

    Will report on food today after breakfast and the school run. Crossing my fingers for all you lovelies, that you have done what you intended this week :A

    Morning all, happy to report a 1lb loss. Need to step it up as I'm sure I could be doing better - the cold weather has had me drinking Hot Chocolate in the cafe at work - when I stop to think about it I dread to think how many calories that sneaks in! :eek: and I should know better, so this weeks resolution is stick to tea and keep saying no to the cake :A .

    Morning all, I have STS. :(


    Probably because OH and I managed to get a few days off work and we've been eating out a lot. I'm still really annoyed at myself.

    Well done to everyone who has had a loss.

    Have a lovely day. :A

    Morning all.

    Weightloss really isn't working for me at the moment - the scales this morning showed a 2lb gain. :( I'm not sure that's right: I've certainly gained, but I think it's more like 1lb - the same pound I lost last week, and two weeks before that - both times I've gained it straight back. :(

    As I'm finding it impossibly hard going at the moment I've decided I'm going to have a change of focus - for the next few weeks I'm concentrating on STS - if I lose that's great, but my intention is just not to gain any more weight. Hopefully after that the weather will be warmer and brighter and my mood will improve, so I can find even the tiniest bit of motivation to lose weight - do you think that sounds sensible?

    Well done to everyone who's lost weight this week, or even stayed the same - you're all doing better than me. :o And (sorry it's a bit late) - have a lovely weekend, ragz. :)
    Back after a very long break!
