    Well done! A small success for me too. Only minus a 1/2 lb this week but better than nothing. Quite a bit of extra walking caused by the tube strike and a dance class may have helped.

    +1lb for me.
    I'm now 17stone 8 and half.
    I will probably put on again as I've been picking on the wrong thing and am out and about for my birthday tomorrow at Greenwich market hopefully.
    I'm hoping to start eating better from next Monday.

    3 and a half Ibs back on for me this week. :'(
    Really stressed at work and my binge eating kicked in again. Honestly though I feel like Ive been all over the place most of this year! I just cant seem to be consistent at all. :/

    1.5lb Off please Brambling.

    I'm putting the recent loss down to a few things, stomach after more than a year is startling to settle down, IBS has improved a bit and calorie counting via the App.  I'm having to weigh mainly evening meals, eyes and stomach are slowly becoming used to each other, plus no junk for 3 weeks.  I've started swimming, just hope I can keep at it.  

    I think the weather has definitely turned, Mr Pepper put socks and a Tee on yesterday with his shorts.

    Have a good week everyone.
