    Sorry @Jellybaby missed saying about your DDad - not an easy time for you or your DMum xx Don’t think SW is at the forefront when we have stress, but yes seems like loose jeans are a good indicator. Sending hugs x

    Afternoon all 😁

    Glad you are having a lovely holiday Coxy.

    Jelly, hope your dad soon improves and is home with your Mum 🤗

    Well i had a bloody awful weigh in 😢no idea why apart from i didn't have many syns last week, i got on the scales and even the consultant said what 😱2.5 on, so got off and on again bloody 3lbs 😱😱should have took the first one 🤣

    She is our consultant now for at least 12 weeks, if she can get the numbers over 50 paying she can have the group permanently, so fingers crossed as she is nice

    @bubbs - Do hope the new consultant works out as she's nice; hopefully she can get the numbers up to 50+ in order to keep the group on a permanent basis. Wow! a gain like that isn't like you. Maybe it's time for some Percy pigs!

    Awww TIE 😢Hope you are looking after yourself, yes weight loss is good, but you didn't want to lose it like that , sending lots of hugs your way 🥰

    I know Beanie!

    Denise, i don't have any but i am going to try and scribble as i nibble so i see exactly how many syns i have. Yes i really hope we do, but that does not include target members, we had 38 through this morning, but 8-10 target, trouble is the group after us is really small and i don't know how many target there

    We had that problem at the first group I went to and in the end she combined the 2 groups which meant a later start for the first group and an earlier start for the 2nd group. It was the same consultant so easy enough to do but if it's 2 different consultants then who knows!

    lovely, my daughter lives in Morzine, so the other side altogether, but does give us options on the way down and back to visit other countries

    1lb loss today, 2lb to target, but I'll miss the next 2 as we're away, we get back on a saturday so I'll have nearly a week to work on the holiday cheese, wine and crumpets, oh and birthday cake 😁

    Denise , it is the same consultant , so maybe that would be an idea , but personally i like early because i go work after dropping orders off and when i am busy i don't get home till 2 as it is , so i wouldn't be happy with that! So i don't know what i would do 🤔
