    Afternoon everyone.

    I posted this morning and lost it - anyway1.5lb off for me this week. Pleased with that but I don't think I've any chance of reaching my 10lb target for the end of the challenge. Definitely a tortoise rather than a hare! I had a tummy bug one day this week and lived on toast and biscuits for 24 hours so thought I might have jinxed any loss. Don't plan to do that again as I won't get away with it twice!

    I am now the lightest weight I have been in some years and I have to say it hasn't been hard - I don't feel deprived or hungry, my diet overall is much healthier and my achey knees have all but gone. I'm comfortably a dress size smaller than I was at the start - which has taken 6 months and just about 2 stone. I've never believed the celebs who lose 7 lbs and claim to be 3 sizes smaller! I need to think about exercise once term's over and granny duties stop for the summer. Told OH I was considering a bike - having seen me on a bike he just laughed. I'll show him.....

    Well done to the hares on the thread, hope your brilliant progress continues, keep going fellow tortoises,and commiserations to those still trying.

    I'm not a failure if I don't make it, I'm a success because I :tried!

    Bubbs - can't see why they wouldn't work with Frylight. Might not be quite as crisp as they'd be with oil but think they'd be OK. Worth a try. Don't forget they'd only be free is you have them as part of a meal.

    Today's plan:

    B - loads of fruit, quark, 1 Hifi salted caramel light
    L - ham, fried up LO veg & potatoes. Will also add some beansprouts from freezer for a bit of crunch
    D - cottage pie with lots of added veg; cabbage

    HEA - milk throughout the day
    HEB - 2 Hifi light salted caramel
    Syns - none planned as went well over yesterday!

    Good morning all,

    Yet another STS for me. Is this the last week of the challenge or do I have one more week to make a difference?

    I seem to be surviving on yoghurt and fruit so maybe this is not enough food if you know what I mean?

    I've been very active and drinking loads of water. I'm so keen to get into some lovely clothes that I have but just not getting there yet. On the positive side, I'm in quite a good SW mindset at the moment and not currently tempted by anything bad. Think it's the hot weather.

    Good luck all x
