Just done my weekly weigh and am delighted and astonished to report -8lbthis week ! :j:j
Admittedly 5,5lb of that will be the 'bloat' that I put on when off plan away, but as that had taken a fortnight to put on, I was expecting it to take at least a fortnight to shift. I knew I was being really good this week - drinking loads of water, loads of speed, few carbs and minimal syns but that loss has exceeded my expectations - it's even 1 lb more than my first week loss!
It's also taken me past my 4 stone mark and into a new stone value on the scales - so I'm feeling rather pleased with myself today.:j
Plan for today
B: kipper with 2 small slices wholemeal bread (HEXB)
L: chicken saladHM cottage pie
Snacks: easy peelers, red pepper, HEXA cheese
Syns: 2 for oil for pie, possibly 5.5 for a kit kat

Popping in to report a MINUS 1 LB for me this week. Plodding along, trying to make the best choices, lots of exercise and not looking at the scales too much. I!!!8217;ll get there ..... eventually!
Amazing loss Poohsticks, well done. That will take some beating for SOTW.

Still trying to get out of the mentality of rewarding myself with food - will perhaps treat myself to a book or CD
Stoke, lovely reading your story but :mad: at fiancee , you will find someone better:T

I think you have hit the nail on the head. We (royal we) tend to comfort eat and then use food as a reward (I do both).
I love beanies idea of storing the money up and treating yourself when you have lost x
Forgive me all because i have sinned:eek:
Afternoon all, need to catch up from where i left off thursThink i was 7 stone at 7, i have been thinking since i got to target i cant remember being this weight since i was at school:eek::eek:
I didnt buy any:A
You wouldnt have wanted to see it ,i have synned , i was out we went to the theatre:D
I too was a large and chubby child, slimmed off in my teenage years but always had love handles and big boobs (never hips - I want hips)
Pray tell of your syns at the theatre, all the details please!

Well I've been seeing how it goes for a few weeks now, as my decision is not something I've just made on a whim, I've been considering it for ages. Plus not being a target member, I can't just attend when I want, as I will get charged for the weeks I don't turn up. I've already nearly used up all my holidays, as I used 2 weeks recently for when my kitchen was being fitted. So I've only got 2 weeks left until August.Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670 -

I would not worry about it, it will be no worse than your picky tea:D:D:D

Flip, I did not realise that they charge you when you don't attend :eek::eek::eek:
There are a lot of us doing SW with the support of this thread, and we are doing okay....well I was before the holiday I need my mojo back!:D:D

What about putting the £4.95 aside each week, setting your target then allowing yourself access to the cash for a treat when you hit your goal?
Do a standing order to another account?
That's a good idea yes - my treat though, wouldn't be food, it would be Pandora (I have 3 bracelets lol).Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670 -

My consultant was really good though, she would override it for sickness and unforeseen circumstances etc, but they would smell a rat if making a habit of it.Striving to clear the mortgage before it finishes in Dec 2028 - amount currently owed - £26,322.670 -

I don't know the ins and outs of SW pricing, but it is good that she is semi-flexible.
Do you want to get back to target? and if so how much do you want to loose?100
