    Ok - so I decided to post my slideshow. I talked about it a few weeks ago but never did it. Never done a link before so sorry if I didn't do it correctly. Plus I wasn't able to label the pictures (got the programme from Suggs' link).

    Anyway, pictures start from August 2006 and diet started January 2007 (after 2nd picture). Last picture taken in June. I only seem to have pictures taken when i am with DD hence her appearance in each one! Thought it might motivate me for next week's weigh-in!


    Well done efrieze your looking fantastic :j

    Thanks Petrichor, I did have a go after reading that earlier post but messed it up so will try again now I'm more awake!

    WOW Efrieze    , not only is that a very brave thing to do but you look fantastic, and v pretty! Congratulations on such a fab achievement, and on your beautiful daughter too.:T

    I am also planning to put up some photos of myself to spur me on but shall I wait until I have lost some or just go for the out and out humiliation now(ie in October when I start)?:eek:_pale_

    Well done to everyone who's having a good week (yes, that includes you Ajax!) and well done Grannynise for your incy wincy holiday gain.

    As for SW, I think copying your friend's books is a good idea or even better ask on Freecycle - I bet there are HUNDEREDS of people out there with books stuffed in the back of drawers doing nowt! If you aren't on Freecycle I can go on mine for you and then post em to you if you like?

    [Do I win, do I win??!:D]

    By the way LL, I won't be recording a weight this week as I left my scales in Brighton but I will post one up next Monday before I head off. Thanks.
