I would take a half pound loss any week at the moment!  Like you I live in the sticks (farm) so dont have shops near sent for loads and loads from Next liked a Qu... dress but wasn't to sure of colour very pale blue and my hair (dont colour anymore) is silverish, looked on Qu... site found same dress in navy/lilac/pink mix they offered me 20% off and its lovely, chiffon layers, elasticated under bust so quite forgiving but a few pounds off would make me feel better - I hate having photos taken. My family are all greyhound breed, can eat anything and not gain weight, I only have to gaze longingly at food and I gain x

No one should have to suffer naturally stick like relatives…I feel your pain.
the dress sounds lovely. I’m liking all the floaty layers around now…I wasn’t sure if it was the nod to ra-ra skirts that draws me to them 🤣 I’ve been looking at new dresses, but I can’t decide if I’d ever get to wear one. I did stop using Next as I found I was spending loads in their sales, just because they were on sale and not because I needed them.
Im aiming for silver, but just stripey at the moment 😕

I was lucky I decided to give up colouring my hair in the October before covid, so although its shoulder length it grew out during lock down, I am not a social butterfly so no one probably would have noticed.  I am so tempted by the clothes on the site where you bought your lovely jumper, unfortunately the dresses I like seem to have shirring on the bust, as I am quite well endowed they dont suit I am much better with the ra-ra look and the floaty chiffon feels lovely. Just had chicken and mushroom sir fry for dinner, not sure that I feel totally satisfied x

A stir fry needs a hefty portion of garlic bread or some nice wraps 😁

Sadly I didn't have any either would have been lovely x

Good morning and happy Friday 📚☕️🌞 …. At last! 

This week has been so busy, I’ll be so glad to have a weekend 😁
And next Tuesday is pay day…yay. 

I have been carrying on with the slimming world eating and this morning had gone back up the pound I went down on Tuesday 🙄 tomorrow is the official weigh day, so it’s not looking good. 

I think I might order the oil today, so I’ll need a lie down in a darkened room 😅
I think I really need a bar of chocolate right now!
I hope you all have a fabulous Friday full of happiness and chocolate 🍫

WW - come back over to the SW thread and let us help you.  Perhaps you aren't quite following the plan - it can be easy to slip up when you first start.  It probably would be better if you just stick with the official WI day rather than keep weighing daily - our weight goes up and down all the time which is why SW say try to weigh at the same time of day every week.  It's why I prefer a morning WI as definitely heavier in the evening!

Thanks @joedenise. I’m the same with weighing, first thing is pounds better than later in the day. I do lurk on the sw thread and always enjoy the food pictures 😁

Thats a bummer the scales not showing your hard work, I always weigh daily it tends to keep me more in check, on my set weigh day I try not to have rice/pasta the day before as it shows on the scales.  Weighed this morning still the same, think its a bit of more by luck than judgement need to be ultra careful this next week!!! Have a lovely weekend, have you anything exciting planned? x

Happy Friday WW
It took me about 5 weeks last year to start losing weight despite being really good, it can be disheartening but keep going...

I may have had a relapse today 🙄 I had a fishfinger and onion ring panini and chips! Oops 😅 I was good for 6 days, but I know it’s not great caving like that. Tomorrow is another day! 

We are heading out to the bigger town for cat litter and a cruise around b ‘n m tomorrow 😁 What are you all up to?
