    Yes, I was thinking the same, and hoping the same, especially after she worked so hard keeping the thread running while Shaggy was away.


    There has been some wires that got crossed somewhere I think. I'm more than happy to pass over the Monthly Challenge to Baileys if she wants it...just let me know Baileys...I'm happy to keep doing the SNC...
    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    That's good to hear wintersunshine! The figure of 122 that I put on the list was something you mentioned the other day as your new challenge for the rest of the year, or at least the coming months, so that's why I put that on the list. Do you still want me to take your name off or would you like 122 to be your target for the rest of the year? ... Don't mind. :)

    Yes take me off if you don't mind - I'm not sure I'm a very reliable poster!

    No no no - I didn't mean that! I'm happy you're back, Shaggy - I didn't mean it that way at all! Sorry if it reads that way.

    All I really meant was that it's always a concern when people stop posting. Please keep doing the monthly challenge :)

    That's the way I read it too. We're loving having you back Shaggy but wondered where Baileys had got to since her holiday.:)

    Stepped on the scales this morning and if they're not telling lies I've lost 5lbs!! Don't want to count my chickens before Saturdays official weigh in but I'm bloomin delighted! Had 0 syns yesterday and if today's meal plan goes well I'll have 5 syns today.

    :)


    :T Good for you! I understand that you want to start off with a bang but, from experience, cutting back on syns and doing SP is really best left until your weightloss inevitably slows down as you get near your ideal target weight. It's depriving yourself that makes most people give up.


    You could still do SW without going to group MissP. You know the plan, you've got all the books, what's to stop you?


    No drinking here today.


    2/10 AFDs please Shaggy and 2/4 for the SNC,
