    Good for you - I'm also on a mission. It's weird, trying to somehow flick the switch in the brain to get started (well, for me!) but once I get into it, I'm fine!

    Weird how the old grey cells work.

    OH made a comment about my weight last night (after the driving off incident for those who've seen the daily chat thread - he should really have known better!) and I said 'I've lost 6 pounds in the last week, I wasn't going to tell you, but i've started SW'

    I got - yeah, right, 6 pounds, been there before, lost 5 stone last time , what happened then, put it all back on, etc etc etc

    I was :mad: :mad: :mad: and I calmly said it doesn't matter how often someone fails as long as they try again - he said 'is it bollox' so I calmly said that if he ever - god forbid - tried to stop smoking, he would realise how hard it is.

    He got all defensive and said that he didn't want to stop or cut down onhis smoking and I reminded him of the number of times he has said 'I really must cut down on my smoking'

    30 seconds later..........'6 pounds?? that's pretty good really'...........:rolleyes: :rotfl: :T

  • Hi Keren
    i hope his attitude pushes you the right way and not the wrong. so many people fail because of unsupporting partners who they live with. losing weight is hard enough as it is without attitude like that. At least we are all here for each other. we will see each other through.

    cheers gang. I did have a small pang of 'what's the point' but luckily it was momentary and it quickly changed to 'stuff you' - I'll show you!
