Well done Lush and Dusty on your amazing losses.
Noted your holiday GTS. Have a good time.
I'm amazed to be reporting a 3 lb loss, which is what I gained on holiday. Not sure how but I will take it.

Very difficult to say for me, as a lot of the effects I was feeling, like more energy, are now totally destroyed by how my treatment is making me feel. I do however know that I am 3 dress sizes down.
I think everyone of us are so very impressed with your weight loss, in the face of health issues, you are one very very strong lady x
Well done Deja Vu..... you skinny woman!
Just think ladies we are 12% to our goal already!:D:D

It is great to see and feel the difference. I had a dress with leggings on today. It is now a dress... it used to be a top!:D:D:D
I think there are the obvious practical things like lower dress sizes and for me being (literally) lighter on my feet which I noticed dancing. The overall thing tough, for me, is feeling good about myself. I hated being fat. I like being in control.:)
That is lovely to hear xxxWell done Lush and Dusty on your amazing losses.

Evening all
I have a great NSV to report! In 2013 when I lost 6.5 stone and went down to a size 14, I loved shopping at Lipsy. When I put a little bit back on and went up a jeans size, I bought a pair of mid blue skinny jeans with a glitter sheen on them from there in a size 18. I paid what is for me an obscene amount of money for them (£55) wore them to my 34th birthday night out and a couple of times after that but then started to pile the weight back on and so they were consigned to the cupboard. I always said that I wanted to get back into them and previously when I lost weight I somehow never managed it and so they stayed in the drawer. I even tried selling them as I became resigned to never being able to fit into them again but they didn’t sell. And I’m so glad they didn’t- I tried them on this evening and not only do they fit but they fit well! I’m so pleased! I’ve pressed them into service immediately for the weekend with a long blue top.
I put a size 24 top on today (wasn’t going anywhere) I remembered when I bought it it had clung- it hung off me like a limp dishrag today
Today’s menu:
B: 2 x SW sausages, 2 LMC Red Onion And Rosemary sausages, peppers, tomatoes with herbs, mushrooms, onions. 2 x decaf coffees (1.5 syns for milk)
L: HEXB wholemeal roll with chicken, 1 syn for spread and mayo, salad. Apple, pear, Quavers (4.5 syns) water
T: Aldi lamb rogan josh (1.5) peas, carrots, baby corn, sugar snaps, broccoli, cauliflower. HEXA Alpro choc soya drink (HEXA +1.5) water. Fab lolly (4)
S: Veggie soup
Syns: 13

Back home from France around lunchtime today. Not quite on plan today but dinner tonight was very much on plan:
Burger, SW chips, beans, onions, mushrooms. Made so much couldn't eat it all - think that must be a first!
Haven't done a menu plan yet. Was hoping to sort it tomorrow but now need to go to Drs for a flu jab - didn't expect to get an appointment so quickly! Will sort out a plan when I get back.
Assuming I get up early enough tomorrow's food so far looks like this:
B - mushroom omelette
L - leek & potato soup; slice of bread
D - ?
HEA - milk
HEB - bread 0.5; possibly hifi bar 0.5
Syns - non planned
Well done to all the losers, some amazing losses this week, especially lush, wow 5lb! Wish I could lose that amount in one week, especially after being on holiday. Suspect I've put on about 1/2 stone!
