    STS for me.

    This quarter has been a slow burn for me. I wanted to try to do this a bit slower to make it sustainable but think ultimately, I have been in denial about how much I would need to change to make a difference.

    Because I wanted to lose only 7 lb over the quarter I'm weighing in once a fortnight and will today report a STS.

    Weight will have been up a little since last weigh-in during the two weeks but strict action over the last 5 days turned the corner.

    Hello
    Well done losers and sts-ers.

    Yesterday I was out for dinner and drinks and today I’m feeling a little fragile. Back on the wagon tomorrow after 3 days partially off piste. As I am definitely staying home all weekend it shouldn’t be too difficult clambering back on.

    Brunch - Greek yoghurt and raspberries

    Tea - a bit of a feast! I made 2 salads plus sausages and my brother brought over sirloin and pheasant steaks. Also had a small cherry tart for pudding.

    Morning All
    another sts for me thanks Brambling a bit disappointed but we had pizza on Thursday to celebrate dd sitting her last A level, haven't exercised as it's much too hot plus fell down the last few steps at home the other day, thankfully nothing broken but I am bruised and sore and feeling silly for not paying attention, dd was most surprised when I landed in the kitchen 😂
    today we are having lemon chicken and new pots for dinner not sure about lunch as I have to pop out to pick up my new (to me) car. Enjoy your weekend x

    Another STS please for me @Brambling this week!
    A little disappointed as I have tried hard this week but I think that the TOTM hasn’t helped. Away for a couple of days this week so will try and make good choices….
