Well done Arty and Pennylane on your losses. .

Rainbowfairydust - stick with it. Don't let him put negative thoughts in your head, you're better than that. It can be really cathartic to write down pro's and con's of a situation so that you can put it into perspective.

Thanks very much

Miserable grey day in sheffield today - grey skies always make me feel bleugh..

phew after a few rough days i don't feel like my body is going to completely collapse in on itself today :j i havent done any exercise since monday and even then i wasnt really doing it properly and i have been completely off food so now i feel all yuck and bloated off to a course in london tomorrow and will be back late sunday so monday i will back on SW properly and me and jillian will be reaquainted :ji've decided to not weigh myself weekly but monthly because i don't want to get addicted to the scales again i found on SW if I had a gain i had a oh well what's the point attitude so if i have no idea what the scales say i will stick at it.....I hope!! my wardrobe now ranges from a size 12 to a size 16 and they all fit how does that work?
well done to all the losers and to anyone struggling with the shred stick at it cos it does get easier ( a little bit....maybe not so much :rotfl:)

im back!

havent been around in a week, was away in my caravan for a few days over the long weekend,

i did LOTS of walking, but did eat ice cream, and chips, but....:j:beer::j somehow...i lost 4lbs!!!

taking me to 5lbs BELOW target

so i have to either PUT ON at least 2lbs to get back into target range, or loose another 2lbs to reset,

so i will see what happens this week,

i am a firm believer that being good does catch up with you, just like being bad does,

i was soooooooo good the week before, and i gained a half pound, as i seem to do almost every 4th week,

but the 4lbs loss come out of the blue,

i have had my biggest losses in the past month??

ohhh.....i got my 6 stone award (total loss 6 stone 2) and i am into a new stone (the 11s) :j:j:j

Fantastic Piglet!
I quite agree about the being good catching up just like bad does.
I am happily rediscovering my collarbones and wrists, they have emerged from places I didnt even know I was carrying fat.Ankles are a bit slimmer too but I still have horrible bulky calf muscles, that must be just all me, not fat.
In a week nor two I should be at target weight and Im beginning to realise that
a) I will miss the thrill of a loss
b) I will need to gradually introduce some more healthy extras and some treats or life could become terribly dull.
c)OH has called me scrawny and pinched lately...but not said anything nice, I dont think I like him any more!...joking, just.
d)I may have become a bit boring to live with and something of a killjoy about food.
e) I cant really afford to buy new clothes, but I dont even need to, I just fit back into the ones that had got too small and alter the ones that are too big...but I WANT to shop!

Morning losers! Everyone seems to be doing so well!

Green for me..
2 x A for milk
Coffee
2 x Weetabix(B), milk, sugar(1), tea

Lots of fruit and yoghurt in for munching, kitkat or 2 will no doubt be consumed too:D

Well done piglet!

Arty even when i was a size 8 i had big calves - couldnt get knee high boots to fit for love nor money. Lots of sport gave me really muscly calves and havent been able to shift them.

i am the same,

i dont know about all you guys, but i still weigh quite heavy on the scales (11.13, tho i am around half stone lighter in my GPs, lighter still in the local hospital, who swear their scales must be right for ops etc, ..anyways..)

i weigh heavy, but i am in a size 12, and my bones (collar and pelvis) are now protruding, hubbie has commented on it too,

i would be happy either way over the next few weeks, if i lost OR gained the 2lbs, i would be happy,

that would leave my new target as 11.11, 3lbs either way on that will be fine with me too,

but defo no lower,

i know the upper limit for my height is 11.1, but i was 11 stone dead in 2001 and i looked very thin then,

and obv, i never maintained that, so i will be good over the next few weeks and see what happens,

im not impressed about the possibility of having to pay again tho :money::mad:
