Wow the difference is great you will be in that gorgeous dress ...........the dress is gorgeous.

Sunflowers · 5th May, 2007

Thank you Sonkie - I can really start to see it now!! Even the photos from the front look really different too!!

soulsister · 5th May, 2007

Sunflowerbride. You're dress is beautiful, you can so see the difference in the fittings.

You are going to look amazing on the day and I can't wait to see the pics.

Sunflowers · 5th May, 2007

Thank you soulsister!! 9 weeks to go today, we're both so so looking forward to it!! Hoping there's a good difference in the pics next time too - god, I am going to be soooooooooooooooooooooooooo good between now and then, I ~LOVED~ the difference it had made in the last two weeks - would be amazing if there is a good result again next time! I'd only (and I say "only"!!!!!) lost 6lb from the last fitting to this - so it's come in by an awful lot for 6lb!!!

*reaches out for her bottle of water* Keeping drinking!!!!

Ooooo you are near Plymouth where abouts...? We are having a Plymouth meet up in August if you are up for it.

Sunflowers · 5th May, 2007

Yeah, I'd be up for that!! I live in a village inbetween tavi and princetown!

PM me the details of the meet - and I'll see what I can do!!

Your dress is beautiful and the difference over the weeks is unbelievable.

This is the link......Not too far away then....I live pretty close to Derriford hospital

Pixie · 5th May, 2007

Awww they look fab Helen!
How you getting on today?

Sunflowers · 6th May, 2007

Thank you Irene!! I'm just hoping the difference over the next 6 weeks is as unbelieveable!!!!

Thanks Sonja!! The link being in here is really handy actually, means I'll know where to find it!! I need to see when I'm working - I'm having all of July off with the wedding so I'm not going to really be able to nrequest days off in August - will let you know as soon as we get our shifts out!!

Hiya Pix!! Yeah, going good thanks!!!! Had a really good day and I've not found it as hard getting back on track as I expected - I think my dress coming in so much really helped with the keeping me focussed thing!!

Sunflowers · 6th May, 2007

Well I'm now up to the end of week three - looking forward to seeing how much I've lost tomorrow!!! If it's only half a pound or something then I will be quite happy with that considering We've had friends down - normally I would have put on 3 or 4 lbs in that situation!!!!

Yesterday was suprisingly easy to get back on track with, if I wanted to nibble at something I had some water.. And some more water... And some more water - and drank 5l over the day!!!!!!

Off to church now, have got to sort out the rest of th evening invites this afternoon but my fiance is working so should be able to get them done!! And I'm going to try taking the dog for a gentle wander somewhere too - somewhere where there's water, he loves swimming!!

Hope you're all having a good weekend!!

Sunflowers · 9th May, 2007

Wow, where has the time gone??!!!

Well, I weighed on Monday morning and I've stayed the same this week - something I'm quite happy with considering as much as I could eat heathily while my friends were down I did have to come off the diet for a few days.. So a maintain is pretty good in my eyes and shows I can maintain when I get to target!!

Since then I've had no problem getting back on track, I'm glugging that water like you wouldn't believe!!

I'm struggling a bit with taking the shakes into work - I've tried different ways of shaking them but I can't seem to get them to come out in anything but a lumpy mess - and the lumps are horrid to swallow... I'm seeing my CDC this friday and am going to ask her about getting some tetras to try - I'll only need one a day to take into work with me because I have a meal at lunchtime and a shake before I go in - so would only be one a day on the days which I'm working!

My measurements are slowly coming down again too! Means clothes which were too tight I am slowly being able to get back into again! Am getting a bit concerned that my weight loss seems to have slowed down a lot and I only have 8 weeks til the wedding - I would love to be 20lb lighter than I am now but not sure if that's acheiveable now.. At least I know I can SS for a couple of weeks if I need to!!
