    Well done GAF - amazing loss and SOTW!

    You'll get target next week Esmy!

    Maman - Iceland sell the Broghies in the south, well they do here in Kent!

    What a day! Don't know where it's gone!!!

    Only just got online to start browsing, although have been online earlier to book another holiday! This time our long early summer holiday to France - going from end of May to end of June so about 4 weeks. Really looking forward to it.

    Before that though we're planning on getting away to the New Forest for a couple of weeks - probably our favourite place in the UK.

    Even though it's been a busy day we've managed to stick to plan!

    B - museli, quark & apple (HEB) (DH had yoghurt instead of quark)
    L - chicken breast, SW chips, beans & tomatoes
    D - prawn stirfry

    HEA - milk
    HEB - museli
    Syns - weekend wine (enjoying that now!):D

    The late summer holiday is September - October (or maybe until December/January if we decide to go to Spain!).

    Absolutely agree with SSM. You're only 70 once. You've got the rest of the week to rein it back!

    Morning all

    I've been really tired this week - no idea why. Stayed firmly on plan; had two speed days and have used my syns. An early sneak peek shows only a pound off *sighs*.

    Proper weigh in on Monday. Onwards and downwards. Hopefully.

    Congratualtions on your 70th, dustydigger.

    -1lb for me. I know how you feel, LionessTwinkletoes - it;s been the same for me this week.

    Plan for today

    Breakfast - mushroom omelette
    Lunch - cheese (HEXA) sandwich (HEXB) with red pepper and salad
    Tea tonight is chicken stirfry with carrots, mushrooms and beansprouts.

    Snacks; - clementines, pears, mango

    Syns: 2 for spray oil for the mushroom and stirfry, 3 for the stir fry sauce
    Possibly 5.5 for a kitkat

    Another -3lb off this week which I'm really happy with. I've now lost 10% of my starting weight. Adding in some Body Magic has been the key for me. I'm aiming to do 10,000 steps a day and I also downloaded a beginners exercise app called Easy Does It which I've been doing daily. It's only 15-20 mins per day and is very gentle but since I started I've lost 3 inches off my waist and half an inch off each thigh.

    My aim is to lose another 2 stone if I can but the clothes I was wearing two years ago when I was happier with my body (size 12s) all fit again and it's nice to have more choice when I open my wardrobe. I may in fact adjust my target upwards because although my BMI is still too high for my height I probably don't want to drop more than one more dress size.
