Oh heck, I'm STS this week as well. What's going on? :rotfl:

Four hours brisk walking this week, still out of sorts which isn't helping, boo. Surely... the only way is up! :dance:

Good luck for the coming week, everyone x

Well done on SOTW Fred :T:T:T

1.5 hours ballroom dancing yesterday.

Went to the hairdressers today, determined to get my hair cropped really short so that it is easier to manage when going to the gym / swimming. Somehow managed to let her talk me out of it and ended up with the same style!! Why do I let people influence my decisions this way?? Never mind, will try again in 6 weeks when I am due another cut! :rotfl:

Wow Jess that's a lot of swimming - well done

Thanks Fred, I feel like I have been doing a lot of swimming, but according to the map on swimming.org I am only 14% of the way across the English Channel! I have a new found respect for all of those amazing people who actually manage to swim the Channel.

Happy Wednesday everyone.

Back from my hols, and back at work so only a few beers and back on my feet all day.

I have waited a few extra days to bring my post in line with freds so my weight loss for the last 10 days is 7lb (the 7 day loss was 5lb).

the distance for my step count is about 19 miles.

Hi all, I haven't checked in for a couple of weeks as I was away and then ill. Still trying (not very successfully) to adjust back to normal, non-excessive eating after my trips, where I ate out twice every day for about 10 days.

Anyway, I am +1lb since my last check in here, which could be worse, I suppose. I am very much on a plateau at the moment - been around the same weight since mid-June. Whilst that's better than gaining, I still have a lot to lose. I will keeping weighing myself and checking in, anyway, and hopefully my motivation and self-discipline will kick back in at some point, lol.

Hello,

STS since last Wednesday. Last week was a lot harder; ate more but also more exercise (i.e. three errands by bicycle so nearly 10 miles, indoor biking and gardening). My weight increase seems to have stopped for now; autumn/winter seasons, I think, will make it very difficult to maintain or to lose.
