How are you doing Susianna? That sounds a little scarey. I hope everything turns out fine. Please keep us informed.

TI after 6 stone you must be looking bloody amazing! Well done for still going, I think you're a hero!

Congrats Sean. I'm still using a lot of your cooking ideas, I find they're quite inspirational. Good luck with going forward.

Hey Becks you're looking really wow! I'm sure the modeling will be fantasic. I can hear you now, 'of course when I was modelling...'

I have had a full diary and it's looking fuller until after mid August so I'm putting off the next step until then. Over all I have lost another 2lb and steadily maintaining other than that. Very, very pleased that my lifestyle is fitting in now!!!

[susianna]

Thanks for your concern everyone .... i'm fine really just very frustrated at this no driving business, have my Neurology apointment a week Monday so no further forward at the moment although no more funny turns :-)

TI as FT says you must look and feel amazing with a 6 stone loss, no wonder you are getting so many compliments .... its quite a good feeling seeing the shock on people's faces that you havn't seen in a while isn't it.

Glad RTM is going well Westie & Daisy, its such a learning curve and its good to push the boundaries a little I think!

Glad everything is going well FT, makes sense to put off the next step until its right for you!

Becks you look gorgeous in your posh frock in your avatar ... how amazing to look back at how far you've come, hope the modeling goes well, hold your head up high and know that you are looking fab!

Keep popping in Sean don't be a stranger!

Have a great weekend all ... I'm off to see Take That on Sunday ... can't wait!!

Thanks for all the lovely comments folks. I am fully back in positive mode and believe this week will be a good one.

Susianna - I'm dead jealous about you seeing Take That. You'll have a ball! Good luck with the tests you need.

I'm heading back to old haunts with the kids in a few week time and we'll be seeing loads of old friends. Most of them have never known me under 15 stone. I know there will be loads of positive strokes, but as I'm still in abstinence I'm also expecting some negative ones. It'll be interesting.

Daisy - I always found my lapses on ww would catch up with me two weeks later, even if I was a saint after. I really hope you continue to sts - that's the aim of RTM after all. xx

hi
i am feeling much more positive today ( see RTM post) and am 100% back on track - the fog has lifted, lol
have posted a couple of new pics in my album if anyone wants a look - i hope they will keep me focussed as i want to keep wearing dresses and shorts!

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are looking really fab.
Well done!!

[westiegirl]

Loving the pics Daisy - you're looking fab!!!

Glad you are back on track

[thin_inside]

Daisy - that dress in your avatar is gorgeous on you. Your OH must be so pleased .

2lb off for me this week. Definitely slow slow progress in comparison with Foundation weeks. No idea why as drinking and exercising plenty. I had really hoped to move from obese to overweight, but it'll have to be next week now!

Still losing so that's good.

That's a good goal to keep you going this week though TI!!

ANDDDDD don't they say if it comes off slowly, it stays off?? Keep at it, you're doing fab!

[Sean(JSF)]

Don't be disheartened T_I you're still losing weight which is the aim after all! It's not a race, but the rest of your life to enjoy being slim Keep at it & loving the positive attitude.

[westiegirl]

Well done TI, still losing, even though I know it will be frustrating having slow losses. You're still on track and you'll get there

I put on 0.2kg this week, which I consider a STS as it was my fruit week and TOTM is due. My scales at home are holding steady each morning (only fluctuating within a pound or so) so I'm happy with it all at the moment

[daisydoll]

t_i i lost 2lb every week on developers - a bit frustrating at times, but looking back who cares, it came off - and is hopefully staying off.

you are going in the right direction!

FT, Westie, Sean and Daisy - thank you for your lovely comments.

I know I will stay with it to the end. I guess, having booked a holiday for mid Oct I was really banking on being at goal weight and at least five weeks into RTM by that time. This is looking very unlikey now. However, we are self-catering and it is with my very supportive family, so whatever the stage I am at by then, I am sure I will stick to it.

It would be nice to be in a position to share a meal at restaurant with them. Any thoughts on which week of RTM would allow this? I had in my head week 5 would be ideal. xx
