lunch was a mugshot, peach, 2 plums and a yogurt. If only I could get my act together 100 % of the time.0

Good luck today Lois Lane - looking forward to hearing the news!
Top Girl that's brilliant! I saw an old neighbour yesterday who said "you've lost loads of weight" which totally made my week as I can't really see it. I have had to tighten my belt by two notches so I know it's coming off - just sick of waiting for it to show!
Sorry to bang on about it but does anybody have an idea about the target date calculator I mentioned in a previous post? I've Googled it to death but can't find it.0 -

sorry betty not 100% sure what you're on about but if you are a group/online member then the weightloss chart shows your expected progress. Mine only goes up until august but it has a target line, club10 line then when you hover over different date sit tells you the weight they think you may have lost by then...maybe this is a new version of what you've mentioned?************************************

Thanks lushlifesaver, I am a group member and can see my weightloss chart. The one I mean let you put in your start weight and your target weight and then choose your weekly weightloss to get your predicted target date.You could play with it by changing your weekly weightloss say from 1lb to 3lbs and it would change your target date. It was a calculator rather than a graph I think. Maybe it has been replaced as you say. Such a shame as it was a real motivator for me.0

Sorry for doing this to you all but just worked out how many weeks until Christmas as I really need to be going into Christmas this year at target!
Anyway 25 weeks! It may help someone else to have that in mind. I need 1.5 a week or thereabouts!0 -
ooh thanks Lantanna, I actually went on the Facebook group to remind myself roughly of what each average weekly loss would give you by Christmas (obviously its a few weeks out of date now though!)
I need 1.16lb per week to be at target by Christmas, which is the latest I want to be getting to target really.
Beginning to wonder what to do about my wedding dress, my fitting will be 6 weeks before the big day so I can't really lose too much in those 6 weeks and risk it not fitting/looking right! I'd quite like to lose 2lb a week until then (5/6 weeks) the maybe look at calling target and maintaining until the wedding then knock it down again to my final target after the honeymoon.************************************

That doesn't seem too far away Lantanna ! I've just been working out when I'll hit target and at an average of 2lb per week I'll get there two days before my birthday in Nov! Very excited at the thought of feeling great (and hopefully looking great) on my birthday night out. Been a while since I felt like that!0

Afternoon everyone
Feel as though I have deserted you lot a bit this week but been busy to online time has been restricted and feeling a bit meh- dont know why but dont think this bloody weather is helping. Amazing how a little bit of sunshine can make you feel so much better.
Monday's weigh in at class gave me a -1lb which meant that I dipped out of bottom end of target by 0.5lb whoops so I'm supposed to be having a few extra treats this week. Quite happy just to hoover at bottom end of target and if I think I'm going to be out of range I'll just wear extra layers :rotfl::rotfl:. Never thought I would hear my Consultant telling me to go and put some weight on.
Well done to all the amazing losers among us and hugs to anyone who is struggling with it all.
Congratulations to SOTW :T and good luck to everyone taking part in the new Challenge.
Hugs to anyone having a hard time atm and great to hear your good news TopGirl.
Hoping you dont have to wait too long Lois
I know there were lots of other posts I was going to comment on but I had so much to catch up on I am unable to think right now.
Take care everyone
