    That's not fair!! It wasn't your fault so she should just write off this week. I think 'holidays' are limited to 6 weeks a year and any other time off (except serious illness I believe) they can expect you to pay for. There would be a very limited point to Image Therapy without the WI. As we've been talking about on here, most of Image Therapy is about analysing why people have gained/lost and tips to cope. I'd question that next week if I were you.

    Incidentally, my consultant only says things like 'a small gain this week' but the horrid thing is she makes everyone applaud your overall weightloss first. On weeks you've gained, I'm squirming in my seat trying to stop her. I suppose they want you to remember how far you've come but I still don't like it.



    piglet, your average weekly weightloss is really high compared with mine (1 - 1.5lbs as week) getting to target so that's maybe why this last 9lbs is so hard to shift. I should just keep on doing the right things and it'll definitely come off in the end. Three things about your holiday:
    • if it's clothes shopping you're planning on doing, you could end up with stuff that's too big in a few months. The jeans I get when I had half a stone to go are now really baggy.:)
    • i should go flexi on holiday, relax and enjoy yourself. In my experience what you put on quickly comes off quickly too.
    • Have a great time!

    Thanks - tbh I don't know much about the holiday stuff, but I certainly didn't want to have to pay without getting weighed as they go hand-in-hand to me, and a different session this week isn't possible.
    Give a girl the right shoes and she can conquer the world!

    I have got a photo from last year with my work tunic on, I look ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE!! :D I Really do mean that, like the INCREDIBLE HULK :D:D
    I actually showed it to one of my ladies last week cos she said she did not remember when I was so big :rotfl: bless her, she said wow!
    I really hate my photo being taken because I am not photogenic :rotfl::rotfl: but this time I was quite pleased with myself.

    Had an excellent day today, not strayed off plan at all, unlike the last couple of days. Hubby was off work today and we planned on going out for a meal but the weather has been atrocious and my saviour ;) We went for a 4 mile walk, we did the same yesterday and I feel so much better. Looking forward to WI in Thursday night, even though I've not stuck to plan 100% I just want it over with and stick to plan next week....

    gettingthere please stop talking about Florida!!! You are making me extremely jealous, we have 186 days until we go not like your 2 weeks!!! ;)

    Seriously though, you will feel fab walking around those water parks in your swimming costume, and the heat wont get to you as much! I had hoped to have lost 4st before going but it will be more like 2 stone which is still better than nothing and definitely better than gaining! Say hello to Mickey for me :j
