    That's amazing ajax. How? Where? Is that not amazing people? He has lost 10 (or is it 11) lbs in 3 weeks...! WW obviously agrees with you (with too many alcohol points or not). Well done you.

    ... thank you very much efrieze, I'm delighted myself. It's actually 8 lbs in three weeks, but yes WW is very user-friendly and helpful.

    I like your list - it motivated me to do my own

    1. 1lb to 75 lbs lost
    2. 5lbs to 30% of body weight lost
    3. 10lbs to 6 stone
    4. 14.5lbs to BMI of 25 :j
    5. 37lbs to final target of wedding day weight

    Well, I am pleased to report a 4 lb loss this week. Only lost 3lbs in the last 3 weeks until now so happy with that result. Perhaps I am 'doing a Suggs' - in that only 1 week in 4 will be a big/decent loss? Who knows.

    Anyway, I like to copy ajax so I have shown my list - target 1 exceeded, almost reached target 2. Yay. :j

    So, new target list as follows:-

    1. 1lb to 30% of body weight lost
    2. 2lbs to having lost the equivalent to 10 DDs!!! (80 lbs)
    3. 6lbs to 6 stone
    4. 10.5lbs to BMI of 25 :j
    5. 33lbs to final target of wedding day weight

    Hmm, let's see.... so that's a 10lb loss for Suggs

    And a 50lb gain :eek: for Ajax (even if you are telling the truth!).


    Suggs you'd have lost more this week only you sucked up outrageously to the chart keeper!

    Delly, my sweet, I wouldnt suck up to you, might lick a little though, just behind the ear ;)

    ... another concurring voice here, once a week ideally, put em where I think they were last week, take one single reading and that's that. Che sera sera.

    Good luck for later!!!

    .. that's mini-target 1 gone, and gone for good. For ever!!! Mini target 2 has also gone but may come back as it's two very naughty days in the next eight due to my birthday. If it does come back, it will just get knocked down again, as will mini targets 3,4,5 and 6 !!! Bring 'em on!

    Well done Young man , Im sure your proud and feeling good at the news :T

  • 000200D6.gif All!
    Had a really bad day yesterday, after 3 weeks of doing really well, I am sooo disappointed. This normally happens to me when I start a diet I do well for a week or so, then falter and revert back to old habits. I woke up this morning so fed up with yesterday that I just haven't got the motivation to do my exercise dvd! I feel so fat today too, I am going to try and keep busy today as I have a cold and ache all over and I know if I sit and feel sorry for myself I will eat!
    Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I am falling into the evil hands of fat and calories!!
    I can only please one person per day.
    Today is not your day.
    Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.

    It's the mutual appreciation society!

    Wedding WAS 5 years ago (in June) and was the last time I successfully lost a significant amount of weight (and was quite slim, even if I do say so myself). DD was born in November 2005 weighing 8 lbs and I like to visualise how many baby DDs I have lost (as the weeks have gone on) - it makes you really see what you have achieved - like when Oprah wheeled on a cart full of lard all those years ago. 1lb of sugar is not light - and it is easy to forget that when you lose 'only a lb' or whatever - we are all doing very very well indeed.
