Good timing, and a real surprise given the multiple mugs of hot chocolate and full fat hot ribena Ive been drinking to stay warm.
(I would still like to lose a little bit more but I set my target abit higher this time as I figured Id keep expectations middle aged and perimenopausal!!LOL

Well done on reaching your target Catz
Jenny don't forget you have been ill and were told not to diet so don't forget to be kind to yourself
I'm going to set up the new thread tonight and will try really hard to keep it on track better than i have this quarter, no excuses seeing I'm now retired! I will keep track of this thread for a few days longer and plan to add my last weigh in on Wednesday I really must do better as I'm unfortunately one of those with a lot to lose and have spent the year playing silly beggers with it.

Morning all xx
Monday morning weigh in revealed - 0.5 lb.
That's 11 lbs off this quarter. Three stones and 4 lbs off since 8th January.
It maybe should have / could have/ would have been more but life happens. And slowly, slowly, I'm getting there. I now weigh the the same as I did when DS was 2 years old. He'll be 32 in December.
Still got a lot to lose but with the accountability and support of you wonderful people it feels doable. Thank you.

PS 5 weeks until DS get married. See you on the next thread. 😘
