    Morning all - couldn't get to SW WI last week but my scales (usually same as SW)  showed STS, so that's what I'm claiming!

    Good evening.  After 3 birthdays in the house meaning 2 takeaways, a bbq, lots of cake and ice-cream, it was surprisingly a STS

    Thanks guys good luck for the final week 🤞 where has the first half of the year gone? 
    A better week for me. Minus 1.5 lb but only by eating tiny meals in the hot weather. I still haven't achieved an overall loss this quarter unless I manage to lose a little more by next week.

    Post holiday weigh-in - put 4lbs on! Back to not stuffing my face with buffet food and ice cream now. How come Spanish ice cream is so good? The flavours are amazing!

    HI just dropping in to report a 3.5 lb loss. I am very excited about this as it has been a long time coming - and I am not super focussed. Hope everybody is enjoying the bright days of mid summer.

    Last week, just after recording STS, I suddenly went up to 12 stone for the first time for months and really couldn't see why but this week I have lost it again.
