    You're doing so well with that plan. I have 9 years and 49 weeks to get to target if I'm not going to be fat at 50 :D

    I sometimes weigh myself, then have a panic because the scales say it is an undeserved gain, then the official scales say it is actually okay, and I then vow to never weigh myself between weigh in's again.....until the next time I do it, and the situation is repeated again :)

    I've never weighed at home. We threw out our scales when we didn't like what they were saying years ago and I've never replaced them, I think I'd be obsessive and just worry about every little change.

    Back from my holidays and logged on for the first time in three weeks. I just skimmed the last page of posts and will start from now catching up as I go. Welcome to new friends since I last posted.:).


    I know I've gained on my holiday, that was expected mostly from lots of white bread and full fat tonic but I did have loads of fruit and veg and drank masses of water. I think (hope:o) some of my much fatter stomach may be bloating rather than weight gain. My plan is to ease back in gently through the rest of the week as I'm out a couple of times to eat and I need to do a shop and a meal plan. If I get that done today then I can make a start with a SW dinner tonight.


    Let me know how you get on with your freebie burger press bubbs. I just use a pastry cutter for mine and I don't make them that often as I'm happy with the Sainsbury BGTY ones, worth 1 syn for a quarter pounder.
