    Maman,when I was at target,the way I understood it was that if you go away(holidays,etc),then come back with a gain,you just pay the weekly fee until you are back in target.
    Foe example,I wandered away from SW in October 2015.I was at target.When I rejoined in April,I had regained 2 stone 1 pound (had already lost 1/2 stone on my own).Now,if I had lost the extra 2 stone 1 lb by the next week,I would not have had to pay anything :rotfl::rotfl:.I believe you just pay until you get back into target.

    Thanks for the advice. Hopefully it's all hypothetical and I'll still be in range.:)


    I think what I was concerned about was taking a holiday in what they called 'grace week'. I don't think that's allowed as otherwise you could extend the grace period before paying. I'm happy to pay if necessary but I know I won't be able to get to a group for almost 4 weeks.


    ETA::T well done tweets. You've done really well to lose in half term week. I'd definitely be keeping the scales with the best weightloss!! :D Glad you didn't clean them, they need to know they were grubby when you got them.

    Thank you :) Have you got the Monitor your Weight app on your phone ? I have had it on since I started paid under £1 so it saves my WI and if I reset phone I can get my stuff back and not lose it.

    Good Luck with scales for DS :p

    Have been a bit naughty today with food as I have done the Great Midlands Fun Run today (8.5 miles), didn't run all the way mind! Having a KFC tonight for tea, as have missed out Sunday roast.

    Back on it tomorrow though!

    Was a good week on the scales yesterday, lost 0.5lb so was bang on target.

    Catch you all soon - my legs are killing me!
