I shall remove people that have not reported in for the last three weeks to tidy the list. If anyone wants to set a target for the 8 weeks to Easter Saturday. I may have not lost lbs but using a smaller belt notch means I've lost inches.

Found you on my phone😁 Can I be put down for 7lbs please?

Bubbs I'm getting on OK.  Another couple of days and I can remove the dressing (top layer has already peeled off anyway!).  It's only like paper tape so not particularly sticky.  Don't think showering helps but was told it should stay put!  Can't go a week without a shower and hair wash can I?  I's still extremely bruised but other than that OK.  I'm back doing all the cooking!  DH is still hanging out washing as it's still quite painful lifting my head up.

Thank you beanie, knew you could do it; shiny new thread, yay 🥳. Fab pix bubbs, missed you. Those fishcakes sound great!

Another one here who didn’t want to drive at night, I go to a lunchtime group. Some of us bring lunch, to eat after being weighed , others come in their lunchbreak, get weighed and dash back to work. Can’t believe I have been going for 13 months now! Can I put in for 5.5lbs over next 8wks plz. That would take me to my 6.5st award, well a girl can dream  .

Thank you for the new thread Beanie.  I've still not had a chance to catch up on things over the past few weeks (if I ever do).
Chieveley can you put me down for 6lb loss please.  

Vegas I'm sorry to hear you've had such a difficult time, and I'm really sorry for your loss.  Be kind to yourself, and do what you can, even if it's to just prevent gaining any more for the time being.  Maybe contact the Consultant and see what she says?  No harm in trying, and as others have said, this thread is great for accountability in the meantime.

I can only echo others' thoughts about the new look forum.  I suspect they've 'tidied' it up, but in doing so done away with a lot of  stuff we used and liked, to make it easier for them to maintain, rather than for us to enjoy.   as for the smileys, it's a woefully inadequate choice!

Just popped on to say hello on the new thread. I’m not going to join the challenge this time but will be around and about.
the fish cakes look delicious, I’m going to look up that recipe and put it in my meal plan next week. Thank you!

Morning all.  Weather looking much better this morning, looking really bright at the moment although the wind is forecast to get worse as the day goes on.  I really feel for those in the north where the floods are still bad and with the likelihood of more rain to come.

Today's (accidental Green Day) plan:

B - stuffed mushrooms - mushrooms S; cottage cheese P; roasted veg couscous 1
L - cheese salad sandwich - cheese HEA2; lettuce, cucumber, tomato S, LTL mayo 0.5; pickled onions on the side S
D - Chickpea, spinach & coconut curry/rice - chickpeas P; onions, garlic, ginger, tinned tomatoes, spinach S; rice F; 50ml coconut milk 1.5

HEA1 - milk
HEA2 - cheese
HEB1 - WM bread
HEB2 - probably won't have
Syns - roasted veg couscous 1; LTL mayo 0.5; coconut milk 1.5
