Hi guys I hope I haven't missed any updates please shout if I have 

sorry for absence I was reading along but brain was on strike! My sister advised me that the good news is I won't become a drug addict as strong medication makes me sick, which is better than the painful alternative 🙂 I have a personal chef and I'm on plain food and ginger snap biscuits 🤷🏼‍♀️

IzzyBee

Glad you are improving. I really don't like strong painkillers. I avoid them as much as possible.

Glad t hear you are improving Brambling (ginger snap biscuits sound so tasty!). Hopefully you can get back to normal soon.

Looks like Im missing an update. Lost 2Ibs last week and another 1Ib this week.
I feel like Im abit more on track now. Eating healthy (not trying to cut calories too much but eating decent amounts regularly).
Also starting keeping a food diary again. I find that writing everything down makes me abit more accountable and I cant fib to myself about what is entering my cakehole!

Back on my digital scales - STS after three weeks. Frustrating as I have been eating in a deficit, managing longer runs and lots of walking and some workouts. Could be muscle growth I suppose, my clothes do feel bigger now so something is happening! And I can run 5 miles now which I couldn't before :-) Will keep at it, I do feel fitter!

This week I have friends staying, so we'll probably eat out a couple of nights. I'll have to eat less (no snacks!) during the day to compensate. 

Hope you're recovering well @brambling!

Hi @Brambling. Hope your recovery is going well and you are feeling a bit more like yourself.

Disappointed to say I have STS this week! The Chinese meal that we had on Saturday definitely had something to do with it! I also feel bloated from eating it so wonder why I did! !🤦

Hi can I please have a fresh start this quarter, and weigh in at 12.4 stone and hopefully report progress next week. 
I have been away on holiday, so am now ready to eat less and exercise more 🙂

I will catch up on reading later.

katejo

@Brambling Another successful week 😄 -1lb again for me. The lowest point for several weeks 11 st 11lbs.

General_Grant

I have to report a 0.5 lb gain.

I've been up and down weightwise during the week.
I do get on the bathroom scales every morning.  It is often suggested one shouldn't do that but I recently read that doing a daily weigh-in may not be so bad because it does illustrate that a person's weight can fluctuate a little all the time and so one shouldn't get too dispirited if one has a gain from one week's or month's reading to the next.
