  • Well my weigh day is Saturday and I'm not convinced I'll loose anything, haven't been too good really - had 3 Terrys orange segments today and a shortbread biscuit!!! OMG this diet malarkey is almost as bad as giving up smoking!!! I have bought the Rosemary Conley DVD (don't tell IA but Colleen Nolan is in it!!) and will do that Friday can't do it tomorrow cause I'm at Uni (I've got a weight watchers sandwich to take no bacon batch or jacket spud for me!!).
    I stopped smoking 25th June 2007
    STILL Never complacent but confident
    My debt is GOING DOWN!!!!

    Just wanted to say how chuffed I am - joined freecycle yesterday looking for any fitness equipment gathering dust - today I am the proud owner of a nifty little exercise bike..... woohoo, tomorrow, a fitter me becomes a reality!

  • Great Freecycle score aytch - nice one.

    So, anyone feeling confident for weigh in day tomorrow (sorry I know some people aren't Friday)

    I have been pretty good all week but last weekend was on a mini break and ate endless amounts of fat, am still hopeful for break-even though (you gotta have hope).

    Feeling nice and relaxed - been to aquarobics and then a swim - hard work but with perseverance I'll lose the weight i need to. Been really good on the food front as well. Keeping an eating diary as well as a spending diary - so hoping that weight loss will be good although its not till 2nd Feb - trying to only wiegh in once a month!!!!

  • I have just weighed myself and I have lost 3lbs this week :j

    Aytch - don't forget muscle is heavier than fat so if you have been cycling lots that could be why you put a pound on so don't feel bad :)

  • Morning all :) it's hard to keep up with this thread! I have had a crap week and eaten like a horse, but Elliot has been having a bit of a growth spurt so it must have done me some good as I've lost 3lbs!

    I'm going to give WW another week on the points plan but might switch to the Core one after that (uh, not sure what that means but apparently you can eat more!)
