  • Rant away Karb... I'd be p'd off too! Is there any way school could notify you too?

    But as Trudij says children are pretty canny and do pick up on what is going on. Well done to your DS3 anyway, you must be very proud :)

    Flump xx

    2.5 lbs lost on this week's weigh in, but that just counteracts the 2lb gain on last week's weigh in.

    19 Karb - Loss for Feb = 0.5lbs, total loss = 12.5lbs, £1's lost = £265
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done

    Still in the right direction though Karb :D

    I've managed another 3lb this week (despite lots of naughties... chinese, afternoon tea, a pub lunch, pancakes and carvery). I was super good though all day on these days and chose healthiest I could plus managed some walking too. Just hope it does not bite me on the bum next week!

    Big bday tomorrow too, so off for meal and cocktails... with NO counting ;-)

    love flump xx

  • Thanks Karb :D

    I am delighted! I have been dieting on and off since my mid twenties and for the first time it seems to be really clicking with me. I still have a VERY long way to go...

    Quite excited as got into my next size down jeans this morning. I have lots of next size downs... which is good as should save me a little money wise.

    I just wish I could make the same kind of headway with my debts. Taking comfort in not adding to them at the moment and making my monthly payments. Amazed, inspired (and to be truthful a tad envious) of the headway others are making! Well done everyone xx

    Monday morning weigh in and 2 lbs lost, taking me to over a stone lost this year. :j

    Been a bit of a mixed week on the weight loss front - a couple of nights with alcohol, but then I took advantage of the warmer weather to go for my first run of the year yesterday too.

    No change on the £s front. DS's birthday is coming up soon so I'm concentrating on using my spare cash for presents

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Well done Karb.

    I stayed the same this week... was gutted as it is my first week without a loss, but having lost a very unexpected 3lb last week I should not complain.

    Quite chuffed I have lost just over a stone since Jan 2nd and that includes my birthday, OH birthday and pancake day :j

    Need to get myself back on track. Just looking at balance transfer cards in hope I can make some inroads financially too.

    Hope your son has fab birthday Karb.

    How is everyone else doing?

    love flump x

  • Hi all,
    Not posted on here for a couple of weeks as my weight loss (and £ saved) has been rubbish!!
    I've decided to ditch ww as I really wasn't getting on very well with it, decided to restart my low GI diet which I did a few years ago with great results. Lost 4lb this week even though I cheated and had a little wine and one of OH Thorntons, so I am well pleased!! :T

    pennies from Heaven: February loss 4lb, total loss 9lb

    Keep up the good work everyone!
    LBM 1.1.16 = £27096.59 - now £17,020.38

    Paydbx 2017 - £3588.90/£7000 = 51.27% - number 74

    Paydbx 2016 - £6487.31/£7000 = 92.67% - number 74
