Belated birthday wishes granny :bdaycake: :j :j ...

...Sounds like you had a great time missy don't worry about the weight gain, that's what holidays are for, I'm willing to bet that you'll have shed it within 3 weeks :j ...

...QT Your finals are more important than anything, just try to eat in moderation and stick to healthy food but have a treat everyday, by the time you've finished uni perhaps your weight will have dropped, but if not it's no big deal as you can then give the matter your undivided attention. Good luck with the exams :beer: ...

...Well done mark :j Suggs :j and :j . I too have had a small loss and my sig has been altered accordingly...

...Food for thought Bails and no cals at that I hope you soon get back on form...

...Vix You've had a bad phase, don't let it get you down:grouphug:. Just put it behing you and start afresh :j ...

...Nice to see you back katyk :j Better luck this time :j ...

...Really enjoying reading all the EFT stuff :T :T ...

...Sorry if I've missed anyone out. Mind is on the return of the disaster that befell me in January. The pessimist in me knew it would, but at least I haven't resorted to food. Total loss of appetite (except ice cream:D)...

...Blimey, isn't it cold!!!!...

You are more than welcome to join us lilmissmup I'm only 5'3" and my DD 4'11" so I understand how quickly a few extra lbs can show! You're very sensible to set a temporary target of 8st and then reassess the situation. Well done on losing some weight already, you will find the support here unbeatable :j just stay with us and feel free to ask whatever you want. Good luck, I wish you success :j ...

Well done to all of you that are losing and maintaining...and if you are gaining, don't worry and keep moving towards your goal!

Hi everyone

Have been watching this thread for a while and have to admit, it's about time I bit the bullet so to speak, and joined you all.

To cut a long story short, I lost 5 1/2 stone a few years ago, went from a size 24 to a size 12 and i've now crept back up to a size 18 again. Been in denial for a few months but what with summer coming up, I want to get back into a size 14 again. I've got loads of clothes that are shoved in a suitcase under my bed that I desperately want to be in when the warmer weather arrives (eventually ! lol)

I think (I haven't got on the scales in a while!) that I need to lose about 2 (maybe 2 1/2) stone so i've been shopping tonight for all the good foods :rolleyes: and i'm going to start in earnest tomorrow.

Do I start by posting my current weight ? :eek: I'm off to read the thread so will be back in an hour or so !

Hi Wendy

Thanks for the encouragement, it's very much appreciated! I got my weight off with s.world before so going to revert back to it but try to do it myself (not long moved house so not overly keen to go to a class at the moment, but I might need to in the future !)

We all know how quickly the weight goes on and it takes ages to come off ! TBH I can't believe i've let myself get like this again but hey ho, i've eaten it so i've got to pay the consequences ! I remember how good it felt to be slim so i'm keeping that thought in my mind and will be sorting out some of my smaller clothes, putting them in my wardrobe and looking at them every day for encouragement !

I hope your first week has gone ok and I hope you see a nice drop on the scales on Weds !

Be good to have a buddy so feel free to PM me

Suggs

Morning all.

Been up since 3am, dropping MrsSuggs and son off at the airport as they are off to Tenerife. So have been working since then. I finish around lunchtime before heading to Heathrow. Actually planning on hitting the gym in an hour!

Trust all is well with you lovely people. Welcome to jtb2412 like wendy, I am another one of the lost it, gained it, trying to lose it again briagde. In my case a combination of 'Travelodge living' and thinking I was in control did for me. Without blowing my own trumpet, if you look at the first page of this thread, you will find my story, its the 7th one down on the list.

Welcome also to lilmissup, I'm sure the lovely ladies of the group will have you sorted in no time

QT, some good advise been handed out, surely a maintain now and get through your finals will be the best, still wont even be summer when your done, so you can get sorted, celebrate and then push for some weightloss if thats what you want Good Luck

Granny Happy 'late' Birthday from me to you :T
