When I asked for luck I didn't mean the bad variety!!!

Hi SA, I like to aim high . I aimed for 2 stone (28lbs) over the last 12 weeks and I got a stone and a half (21lbs) which I was thrilled with. With the gain tonight that has now reduced to 17.5lbs. If I aim for another 28lbs in the next 2 weeks and get 21lbs again I'll be over the moon. The next 12 weeks includes our little caravan holiday though which may throw a spanner in the works, but it ends when the kids break up for summer so hopefully that will be optimum shorts weather!

Wow you have done so well - I'm impressed!! Having said that I've just lost 7lbs in 2 weeks no effort required just worry - don't recommend it however!!!

No Hun, certainly not!! Been there, done that, didn't take advantage of it and piled it all back on again . Like I said on your diary, you have to look after yourself too. Glad OH is settled on his new ward Xx

Good luck with the dieting, I'm on the last stone and it's a bu $$ er to lose ! I'm starting back at the gym tomorrow after slacking over easter! Xx

Sometimes you need a break dfw for it to start shift again. I know when I lost 5 stone last time (years ago!), it took as long to lose the last stone as it did to lose the first 4 altogether!!!

Good luck at the gym tomorrow Xx

Really? Oh woe is me.

Five stone/32kg is a helluv'an achievement - as is a kilo a week which is what you're going for now (have I converted correctly?). That gym membership is certainly worth the investment.

Glad you had a nice time at the wedding. Don't worry about the weight gain, I bet it will come off fairly quickly next week.

I do that with 3 for 2 offers too, OH thinks I'm mad and doesn't understand what I'm up to.

Yes Robin I believe your maths are correct! We've been to the gym again today as DS2 started back at playgroup this afternoon. It's his first full day tomorrow :eek:. But he now goes for free :j It's a good job really as I don't know how I would have paid this week . I spent £30 on food shopping today, and £5 on fat club yesterday so we now have £40 til Friday. Definitely do-able.

DH hasn't been great since we got home this afternoon and is currently lying down. He says he keeps feeling waves of sickness/fear. I caught him 'chewing' as well and he hadn't realised. All signs point towards to possibility of a seizure so I've got everything crossed I'm wrong.

Had a lovely email from gas/electric supplier saying as we have had a particularly cold winter and they are a responsible company, they are going to very kindly let me pay an extra £35 this month to ensure I don't fall behind in my payments :eek:. This is just after they hiked my normal direct debit amount up by £30 last month too. Or I could opt out of their kind offer. I opted out! Then I called them to see when I was tied in until and unfortunately it's September. I'll be looking to switch then.

By accident, I clicked on the first page of this diary instead of the last and discovered it's a year today since I started it!! I'm mighty glad I did! You lot have helped me through some tough times and I hope one day we get to meet in RL so I can thank you properly Xx

Happy diary anniversary x

Hope DH symptoms don't turn out to be anything sinister.

I would have opted out of that "KIND" offer too
