    My mum is the worst making gestures making me feel awful. When I started SW she said I didn't need to lose weight and since I started she never once said well done and on Sunday I have to have dinner and its always been a kingsmill white square with 2 small slices pre packed beef on and recently adding extra :mad: like breaded mushrooms , cauliflower cheese , courgettes :mad: Then all time I am there Saturday , Sunday do I want a biscuit , cream cake , chocolate , bag crisps get the gist I say no every week to the offers but its easier eat dinner then tell her :(

    Your Mum sounds like a 'feeder' - mine was too - probably why we needed to lose weight in the first place.

    I got to target previously in time for my Silver Wedding Anniversary, we had a party where the dress code was 70s and I wore a shortish skirt and boots. My Mum said that now I'd lost weight I was wearing the clothes I wanted to wear when I was younger - nothing like calling you mutton dressed as lamb is there? lol

    Congrats to all the losers especially Beanie well done.

    I have so many reasons why I want to lose weight: health (dodgy knees and hips lol), to be more active with my boys, to fit into the multiudes of clothes I have in the attic in smaller sizes, and to be a good healthy example to the boys. But mainly its a confidence thing. I hate going out even to work's do's as I always feel frumpy and although my husband and boys love me for who I am I would like to look nice too and not feel so rubbish about myself.

    This is true when I lived at home many moons ago had to eat all my tea before I could leave the table. So I am glad I don't go mums for many meals Sunday dinner is enough for me :)

    Hi everyone :wave:
    Well done on all the losses:T
    People that are struggling, perhaps you wll feel different in a couple of days/weeks but all the hard work you have done will be undone in an instant if you get in that mind set, oh i will have this today eg, easter egg, tomorrow will be something else, next day something else........ then you have undone all the good work:(
    I am not saying dont have a treat, but i know if it was me it wouldnt stop at one or even one day , thats why im fat:o
    I also smoked for 33 yrs and packed up just over 2 yrs ago and put more weight on but the biggest shock of all was a few weeks ago being diagnosed diabetic, i can honestly say i have not had and sweets or chocs which is a miracle in itself:rotfl::rotfl: i instantly swapped from sugars to candrel , i have the sweetest tooth out!:eek: diabetes is not just about sugar and i dont want to lose my feet or eye sight thats why i am determined:D
    My hubby does not understand it but he could also do with losing weight after putting on after stopping smoking at the same time.
    Sorry if this looks like preaching i dont honestly mean it that way just giving you my 10p's worth x
    So have a few days off but please come back to us, i have been made very welcome and am grateful to each and everyone of you :kisses2:

    Wow lots more amazing losses. Well done everyone.

    Not been a great day for me again, but lots of walking, so hopefully I have burnt off some of the extra syns.
