Good evening all,
I have some good news but somehow I don't know if I have done the right thing.;)
Firstly I stayed the same. A dead 12 stone. I really wanted to get into the 11's but alas it was not to be :mad:
When I got weighed it was mentioned that I really did look skinny in my leggings.
I was asked again about setting my target, maybe now or quite soon.
I had a think about it and decided that I would set it tonight.
So now I feel quite guilty that somehow I have cheated! :eek:
I got my lovely target certificate and my last ( ? ) shiny certificate.
I should feel elated and over the moon, but I don't.
Have I done the right thing?
Does anyone think I have cheated?!
I set my heart on the 6 stone but have only lost 5 stone 8.5 lbs.
I am now wracked with guilt thinking oh! heck, what have I done. The only good thing is that I don't need to pay anymore so long as I stay within my target range.

My thoughts also went to Piglet, she has done so marvellously well, :j changed her target a whole stone and is now struggling.
I feel like I have copped out!
I could not face being a failure, please forgive me! :rotfl::rotfl:

Well done to all the losers, sts, strugglers and cheats! :rotfl: ( that's me ) :rotfl:

GT - please please don't feel bad, you have done so amazingly well and you are a real inspiration. A target is what you yourself feel comfortable with so if that's where you are right now then great and enjoy it.

Oh and please go in and change your name to GOTTHERE!!!!!

Errrm banned from getting what exactly :eek::rotfl:


Well done losers and those with NSV's :A:A:T:T:T:T

I have lost my mojo a bit this week, had lousy weekend food/health wise. Too much carp and lots of scary pain

. Will hopefully pull myself together and back on the tank after ECG on Friday, also have to have a fasting blood test at 9.40am :eek: will be soooooooooo starving by then. Have ordered some Alpen lights [from Mr T] to munch in the surgery after blood test and while waiting for ECG. Hopefully all will be fine and I can move on.
Keep the faith folks :A:A:A

TIE, thinking of you hon and will be keeping everything crossed tomorrow for your test - I'm sure the worry of the test is causing some of the anxiety that's going on with you too!

Well, I've managed to get through today but am not sure how. Last evening we received the most dreadful news that a friend of three decades had passed away. We're in shock. I went to work this morning but had to come home again - couldn't put a brave face on long enough to be with the students. Will be back in tomorrow.

Had WI this evening and lost 2lb. Would like to be hugely pleased but it seems inconsequential compared to what has happened.

Snoopy, so sorry for your loss and sending you some {{{{{hugs}}}}}

Well my up and down week did not have a good result 1lb on for me but I don't feel bad because I know I "earned" it.

I haven't been doing things right this week but have immediately rectified it this morning and have a huge vegetable frittata under the grill at the moment - I think there are enough veggies in there for the whole day!!!!

I'm walking in a charity walk tomorrow morning so that will up the body magic a bit and hopefully next week the scales and I together will be going in the right direction! I really am taking 2 steps forward and 1 step back at the moment!

I think alot of us are struggling through a little of the "not focused" zone at the minute. I know I am. So with that in mind I called a 4lb loss for next week. Keeping in mind everyone thats called above 2lb hasn't shown up the following week.
I've decided that a food intake shake up is needed. SO I am going to try and get through today without milk.
Thank you all for the well dones.

Funny you should say that Gettingthere - I was going to suggest setting target yesterday No I don't think you have cheated, you are clearly happy how you are right now. I think you have evaded a whole lot of stress on the gains and sts week on week. Just remember you'll still fluctuate.

As crude and uncaring as this may sound, life goes on. As much as I wanted it to stop when loved ones died around me it wouldn't. The focus of your world does shift, and I am sorry for your loss. It was something mundane in my daily routine that pulled me out of the shock and sorrow I hope that you can find the same soon.
Nothing will make that 2lb gleam like it might any other week but that doesn't make it any less of an achievement.

MedMum good luck with your body magic walk hope it stays nice for you.
KissyKissyKaren41 - WOW well done.

Unfortunately got to read and run this morning as due out the door in a few minutes

I just wanted to send big hugs to Snoopy. Also to the other poster who has had bad news about her friend. lifes a *6&*9 sometimes :mad:

In quick summary, yesterday was just about ok for me. Will post details later.

Have a good day all :T

Mediterranean_Mum

"Not focused" yes that's definitely it and how I've been this last week. I seem to have this pattern of losing a nice amount and become blase about it and then the following week I'll put back on half of what I lost the previous week!!!

Sorry I meant to multiquote and then lost track of who said what, but GettingThere, congratulations nad don't be a ninny - it's totally brilliant that you're at target. Enjoy. Buy some even skinnier leggings to celebrate! And hugs to snoopy. The 2lb might be more comfort than you think as it will give you a little 'control' at a time when you can't control most things. Hugs.

As for me - still doing OK, af is here so the scales are a bit off but aside from quite a lot of wine last night I am hanging in there.

Morning all!

Well done to some fantastic loses this week, sorry I can't remember who everyone is, there are so many posts to go through but I do read them all.

Well had some disappointing news from my consultant last night, apparently the scales in group last week were wrong. Only one person actually gained weight last week and they are thinking that the scales must have been out by around 5lbs :eek:

This would mean I actually gained last week, along with a massive chunk of the group last week that thought they had lost. I'm really angry that no one picked up on it within group, and it has taken them this long to work it out ( we had a replacement consultant in last week)

So I have decided I am not going to go to group anymore, I struggle juggling my 2DD's around the group and can never really relax when I am there anyway.

I will be going it alone with my mum, and we will have weekly weigh ins around her house (on a Thursday) and I will pay my £5 each week and use this as savings for my holiday.:T

I feel so let down by the replacement consultant, that I begrudge handing over anymore money to them. Apparently because image therapy was still on last week they will not be refunding anyone for their mistake :mad:
