Lucky I am sure you will look fab! I've just done the same re chocolate and stress but I am sure that 600 odd calories aren;t going to make all the difference at the end of the day - trying to stay strong the rest of the time!!

Thanks Sparky. I've been good the rest of the week so I'll see what the scales say tomorrow. Hopefully won't be too bad.
Saturday was quiet apart from work. Yesterday we went swimming in the morning and then to an open garden event for the Red Cross in the afternoon. The estate is normally private so it was good to have a nosey. Ended up costing £22 for entrance fees and tractor rides etc though. At least it's all for a good cause!
Today we were supposed to go to the gym, but plans changed when we discovered the kitchen sink was leaking into the cupboard underneath. Trip to B&Q, £20 spent and sink is now fixed :T.

:wave:Hi lucky
Well done on all your weight loss. I am doing it slowly and decided not to aim for a certain weight for the wedding so I wasn't disappointed. You must look really fab with all the weight loss you have already achieved. You are tall so can get away with a bit of extra weight.
Bullies were the bane of my life, both as a parent and as a teacher. What we ended up doing was inviting the bully round for tea (kids bullying my kids -not kids I taught). Once they had been round , found we were no different to anyone else, they were okay, bullying stopped. And then I was bullied at work by another teacher, happens everywhere, not sure it has always been this bad.....

Sorry to hear that Pooh. I don't understand how people can be so horrible
. Lovely to have you back posting though.
I really don't look fab. I lost another pound and a half on Tuesday so I'm back up over 2 stones lost. I was on 4 stones off back in September though and looked much better then.
We had a rather annoying 5.5hr power cut from 4pm last night. Amazing how much you rely on electricity day to day and you don't realise until it's not there!
DH has been slow the last couple of days.

Stuck my head out of lurk dom very briefly to say:
1 Congratulations on being debt free
and, I hate to state the obvious but,
2 The bride(s) clearly don't think you'll spoil the photos or you wouldn't have been asked to be a bridesmaid!
So please try to relax and celebrate...A budget is like a speed sign - a LIMIT not a TARGET!!

PLMBL,
They love you and they want you to both attend and be in the wedding party. I'm sure you'll look fantastic.
You're doing what we all do at times and being too hard on yourself. Be kind - you deserve it0 -
