    Honey Bear, I think these things demand a lot of patience and it's just hard, and there aren't any obvious long-term answers either (or if there are, I haven't found them). I kind of gave up slightly on going by weight and instead go by the feel of my clothes - if they get tight and it's uncomfortable sitting down, I try to cut back. I doubt I will ever be stick-thin though.


    Same here. I originally shifted the weight I needed with Slimming World (I won't eulogise about it but it worked brilliantly for me. Take a look at the sample 7 day menu on the website.;)). Now I just get weighed every 8 weeks as that gives me access to all the members' benefits. In between I use my clothes to tell me how I'm doing. best of all is the 'clean jeans test'. If they feel tight then I know I've overdone things.:o


    I'm out tonight, dancing and driving so definitely no drinking.


    11/10 please Shaggy and 2/4 for the SNC.

    25/26 AFDs today
  • Afternoon all, writing from my sick bed. Food must have been dodgy when I ate out last night, am not straying too far from the bathroom today. Was quite sensible with the alcohol so it wasn't that.

    Can't go to SW weigh in today, so must try to go tomorrow.

    Can you put me down for my 12th afd tonight please Shaggy thanks.


    As for the Slimming World discussion, I love it. I am managing to lose on all full fat products. I eat nuts everyday, full fat cheese, it's great. I see it as how I will live for the rest of my life. I don't eat anything with sweeteners in, only real sugar for me. I always go over my syns tho so that's my next challenge.
    Total weight lost 6.5/73lbs starting yet again. Afds August 10/15. /8 Sept.
