Really surprised by todays NSV. My book keeper came in to see me today and I was talking to a member of staff and had my back to the door. She caught the eye of the member of staff to ask her where I was! She didnt realise I was standing right in front of her. When I turned around, her jaw...

Thanks hun. Looking forward to tomorrow. Fingers crossed for a good loss this week as I have been struggling to lose more than a pound despite trying really hard. If I can, I will try and post a picture of my lunchtime salad again. Good luck to all xxx

Sounds delicious and really easy too. My lot love butter chicken and hubby usually makes it with heinz tomato soup+ extra spices. Hopefully if I make this one, they wont be able to tell the difference!

Hi Kay Wasn't on plan for Day 1 yesterday as I was fasting. Only had melon, water and coffee all day. on day 2 though. Just eating a feta (HEa) salad with mixed leaves, cucumbers, gherkins, peppers, red onion and Tesco sweet chilli dressing (3syns) So nice xxxx

Hi Wendy Here to subscribe. Your food looks lush. Loving the garlic and mushroom sauce with sea bass, must give that a go. How did you make the 2 syn butter chicken? It looks delicious. Good luck x

Hi Fran, well done on the loss. You will hit your goal, no problem at all x

Keep at it you know they will move. Food sounds great. What did you decide ham or schnitzel ? Wonderful that Nate is getting confident on the bike already. No wonder he's tired!

What do you mean " won't be moving back here YET" you aren't coming back at all. Keep moving forwards hun. Good luck and well done xxx

Cajun spiced chicken sounds delicious. What spies did you use? Any joy finding sandals, I got wedge sandals from New Look, they are really comfy. lost 1.5 tonight. Bit disappionted as my clothes are feeling really loose this week compared to last week. Never mind, here's to next week x

Been good all of last week ready for WI tomorrow and Aunt Flo turns up! So annoyed!

Amazing result Fran. Well done! My body does that too. I almonst imagine it sayin to me "what heck I gave you a good loss last week! Leave me alone for a bit!" 4.5lb in August is totally do-able. Good luck x

WOW amazing losses everyone! I'm in awe of them. I know I am waiting to start the challenge next Monday, but with losses like that might have to do challnge in secret this week instead ( just dont tell Kay! ;) )

Glad you got it sorted out. It can be hard balancing eating out and SW. I don't think it's the food, it's the fact people can't accept the new you and the changes you are making. I have this a lot. Friends who just don't stop buying me drinks saying one won't hurt, so I have one for them to buy...

Hope your feeling better today hun. Any idea what could be triggering this attack?

That's not enough. Why not make an omelette or a frittata - quick and easy.

Thanks Kay. Raring to go. Better get my bunny teeth ready to eat all that salad!

Not much on for me this weekend. Got guests this weekend then my 18 year old niece is staying all week so be be a busy week with her and my daughter nattering on wanting to be entertained. Hopefully be a relaxing weekend for once x

Hey Siggy! How are you. Miss you xx

Polish your halo, well done. I wouldnt of resisted the lovely food. YAY to Nate's bike arriving, has he been on it yet? A get together sounds good, something to look forward to. what have you got planned for the weekend?

We'll done for speaking to the other mother. Did she seem to accept what you said to her? Hope everything was okay for him at preschool yesterday. Is he there today or have they finished now? Boo to the gain, but this isn't weigh in day, I thought that was Monday? So it could just be water...

We'll done for sending off your revised version. I am sure it's brilliant. lucky for Nate you got there when you did! Poor mite! Some parents are so oblivious to what there little " darlings" are up to. Hope you do get to speak to the mum and put her straight. went to weigh in and gained a...

love sausage sandwich, but with a slice of cheese too - yum! Never tried orzo, looks similar to rice though. is it the same taste? too hot to do anything today, I just want to go home to bed!

Good luck Orla. The somersaulting stomach is the extra bit of body magic to ensure the loss xx

Well done on the loss - WOW! That is awesome! Over half a stone in 2 weeks! Bet you can really feel that change in inches on your body. My scales are showing a STS, but who knows what will happen by tonight's WI. We all went away for the weekend and had fish and chips, ice cream and went over...

Poor Nate. It is really hot and for a three year old, it can just get a bit too much for them. I wish I could sleep for 3 hours during the day! I've done a spin class today and just got back from an hours long walk with the dog. Am shattered now, but really want a good loss tomorrow night.

Food looks great. Well done on the loss! You are flying at the moment. so glad you got your money back x

Naughty of the neighbour to do that. It puts you in an awkward position as you can't say no. In the morning knock on her door and tell her you are got in out shopping and can you have your money back now, especially now she has got her purse. Should make her feel awkward. If she says she hasn't...

Hi Sheila, hope you have a wonderful time this weekend with family this weekend. Look forward to seeing some photos of your dress x

Good luck for WI Sam. Good to see you back. You'll get those last pounds off - no problem xxx

Well done for updating your stats. I can't face changing them back up to what I am now, though it is 10lbs more than my lowest. I keep them at where they are to remind me of when I am aiming to get back to.

woo hoo! Go Orla! AMAZING! Well done hun, that is awesome xx :wow::worthy: :happy036:

At least your social team lose! Out of 5 one loses or stays the same, the other 2 STS and 3 weigh more than when they started. One has sat through the new members talk 3 times in the past 18 months to help her. When I talk to them , they just say that if they didn't come to group they would end...

Absolutely agree with you about group -100%. It can become a negative atmosphere and pressurised. Most of the social team for our group usually gain weight and as there are always first to WI they are first in image therapy. It's the same questions and the same answers. Two of them have actually...

Good luck to you both, 2lbs to the 13s. So close now! Fingers crossed x

OMG! That is an awesome loss! Well done you! So is your WI day a Monday now?

Banana custard sounds good. In the mood for some dessert x

Hi hun. Good food day yesterday. What have you got planned for today? I'm having a SW fry up, and our usual roast dinner today, roast chicken, with as many veg as need using up!

Really fancy kedgeree now. How do you usually make it? Never made it before but sounds like the sort of thing I would like to eat x

I just find my mood is awful if i weigh every day and the scales don't budge. Every morning weight can be so variable depending on how late you ate the night before, if you had a fatty/ salty meal, exercised a lot so water retention or just not had a big poo! It made me down in the dumps if I...

Love roast dinner and cheese cake! Here's hoping the scales continue to go down this week. I've stopped weighing daily and only weigh in Tuesday morning so I have a rough idea what to expect at weigh in x

Morning Fran. Missed you. Glad you are having better days, though boo to passing out. Are you okay? Loving Nate new dish - paella, especially with all that seafood in it! Very grown up palate! How's the book publishing getting on?

not too bad hun. Been struggling on my weight loss journey and need to get my focus back. Am hoping for a good loss this week, but Mother Nature decidedto make an early visit today. How about you?

Well done Chezz, that's fantastic x

Lovely dress Orla. Loving the colours in it. Glad you didn't get a call, that's a big relief. Shame on the STS, but it's better than a gain! Xxx

Hi Chezz. How's your nephew doing today?

Are you due on? I usually have a gain one week before? Keep at it, you know the plan works. Next week will be a greater loss to make up for it. Have a good week x

Hey Orla, sorry to hear you are feeling down. You are doing amazingly well ( better than me!) keep the faith, you know how to lose weight and you have lost so much already. Sometimes your body just doesn't want to let go at that point, you watch.. If not this week, then next week... You will...

2 on please Daz. Thanks x

Well done Emma! That is awesome! Bet you are over the moon! Fantastic x

WOW Kay, that is amazing! Well done x

Amazing loss Sam, well done. So what did you do different to lose so much via going to group than when you were at home? Did you eat differently?

Hi Daz. 2 on this week please.thanks x

YAY Fran, that's brilliant news. Well done hun x

Hi Daz. STS for me this week. Thanks x

there is always the super speed challenge, guys. 7 super speed foods a day? (not to be confused with super free foods)

I'm with you on this one. Sick of being miserable all day because the scales have crept up overnight! It makes me so moody. One time the scales said I had gained 5lbs on weigh in morning, I ended up going home from work early as I was so upset! In the end I had lost 2. No more weighing in until...

You look really lovely, even your calves! Loving both dresses, the colours really suit you x

The week wasn't too bad, only one meal off plan. 3.5 off tonight. Finally a loss! Still got 6lbs to get to my pre birthday weight though. Got so much on at the moment that it's hard to stay focussed and on plan x

3.5 off for me this week please Daz. Thanks x

Hi Daz. 3.5 off tonight, thanks x

Sorry to hear you had a bad week, but well done for getting back on plan x WOW to the size 14 shorts and the size 12 top, that is brilliant. That should keep you motivated and on plan. You are doing great hun, well done. X

Glad you had a wonderful time. Egypt is gorgeous, did you go anywhere like Cairo or Luxor? ouch to those bites, look nasty. I remember that spider bite you got last year, that was really bad as well! Glad to see you back and with an amazing loss, well done. hope you feel better soon x

Well done Emma, that's fantastic!

I took me 8 months to stop going to the size 24 sale racks. Even now I keep picking up the wrong size and and surprised when a 14 fits me as it looks too small too even go over my head! i suppose it also depends on how long you had been at the bigger size. I had been a size 24 for 10 years, so...

I've been experimenting with colour too! Moved from black to brown! Keep admiring the bold Aztec print maxi dresses and the flowery print dresses but too afraid to wear them. Think I look like a pair of curtains. Decided just to buy a bold shrug and bright jewellery/ shoes instead

Loving the new diary name and signature hun + WOW you are on your 1000th diary page x

Just seen some people at a gathering who I haven't seen in 18 months. A lady asked my mother in law where her daughter in law was (referring to me) my mother in law said - she's over there. Lady replied, not her I want the big heavy one! My MIL said - she's over there, that's her! The lady's jaw...

I'm sure I've shared this before, but I match up my treat to the colour of the sticker. I try to get something that will last, like a necklace, bangles, earrings, shoes, handbag. That way I have a constant reminder of what I lost and achieved. I plan in advance according to the colour I'm...

Managed 3l today. Mainly as I went to spin and took 2 bottles with me. Been on the loo every 15 mins as a result! Well done everyone x

Your book sounds great. Really sensitive and written from the heart. If it is written half as well as your diary, it will be a big hit. As you said, it was for Nate, so as long as he feels secure and is happy (judging by your comments on him- he is) then you have achieved what you set out to...

Hi Von, hope you don't mind, but saw your link on Emma's diary and thought I would subscribe. You have lost an awesome amount of weight, well done.

Managed 2l today! Back and forth to loo all day again! Have felt quite full, couldn't even drink a can of diet coke as didn't have enough room in my tummy for it! Here's hoping for a good loss this week. How's everyone else getting on?

Hey hun, I am tired just reading everything you have been up to! WOW! No wonder you haven't had time to be on here. Glad you are still sticking to the healthy eating. Exciting times about you being a publisher author - you kept that quiet! That is fantastic news. Will the book go to print or...

I love pink grapefruit squash, so refreshing. Found drinking so much water meant I didn't feel hungry x

Just seen pickled vegetables on tescos website in their world foods department x

Gained half, but it is TOTM so here's hoping for a mega loss next week x

I'm staying away from all of you - pickled garlic sounds so smelly. At least the vampires will stay away from you all ;D

Drooling at the thought of pie now! Got a sausage casserole cooking in the oven for today to have with broccoli. Enjoy your nap ;)

Managed 2l today with no added sugar squash. Can't stop weeing! Aiming to get it drunk early in the day so I don't spend all night back and forth to the loo! Day 1 complete.

Hi Fran. Where are you? Missing you loads. Hope you and Nate are ok xxx

Week done Emma! That is fantastic. Only 4 to go. Just think, you could be at target by the end of this month!

I keep mine in the fridge too. Only because the fridge has the special egg rack. It seems a shame not to use it :D

1/2 on tonight. Thanks Daz x

1/2 on please Daz. Thanks x

IM in for the water challenge. 1l for how long? My scales are showing yet another gain of 3lbs this week and I only had one meal off plan! So peed off at the moment. I know it's TOTM, but still I had a huge gain last week as well!

Wow Emma you look awesome! What a difference! Must say you were beautiful before, and look stunning now! Well done. You are a real inspiration x

I love that dress! Where's it from - I want one! Hope your back is better. I hate taking tramadol, it spaces me out but it is the only thing that can deal with the pain x

OMG that is amazing! And on your birthday week! So awesome! Bet you are still over the moon! Well done hun x

Food looks great. I love sprouts. The only thing is the family don't like me eating them!

Well done HarryRu. Good luck x

Back on plan now Mandy, thanks. Going to do some red days - had fruit for breakfast, large tuna salad for lunch and roasted chicken with salads and beet root for dinner. Going to have my Hifi bars in a bit as a great. Loving the salted caramel ones x

I am a 16 on trousers as my spare tyre is holding me back at the moment. My top half can get into a 14 that is floaty or a vest top as long as it's not fitted. So I suppose I am technically a 16 all over x

Gained 5lbs! :0 back on plan with full force. Keep going the wrong way!

Hi could you put me down for a holiday this week please. Thanks x

Hi can you put me down for a holiday this week please. Thanks x

Getting ready to go and WI today, but am dreading it. My scales are showing a 5lb gain :eek: just shows I can't get away with even a weekend off plan! Anyway, been on plan today and went to do a spin class too. Maybe I can blame the gain on water retention from exercise?

Happy Birthday Sheila, hope you are having a wonderful day and being spoilt rotten x

Well done on the loss and have a wonderful birthday x

Thanks Siggy. Tucking in to cheese on toast and promised myself this is the last off plan meal this month. I feel so bloated and sluggish and that's after 3 days off plan! At a wedding on the 30th so should manage it. The next few weekends I am away, but in will be in control - of me and the...

Missed you. Glad to see you back hun. Good luck and remember, we are all here for you x

Well done on the century club! You are doing so well! I am struggling since my birthday. There has been so many things happening, guests over, weekend breaks and a wedding I just can't get back on track for any length of time. Just yo-yo ing. Being on plan for the week then stuffing my face all...

Hi Daz. 3.5 off for me tonight, thanks x

Hopefully it won't be too bad Orla and Mandy. You know the body works in mysterious ways! Good luck x

Hi guys, thanks for setting up another challenge. These really do help. (even though I fail at most of them!) Can you put me down for 7lbs please. Hopefully I can mange this with 4 WIs. Thanks guys x

why were the meatballs so bad? its one of those dishes that always seem to turn out okay? Dairy Milk and Ritz sounds heavenly. Have a good day x

The dress is lovely. The blue suits you. Hope you find some new shoes that fit right soon. have a great Sunday x

WOW Siggy! 7 stone award that's 99lbs, 1 more to the Century Club! That is awesome! Well done, I am so proud and made up for you. Will need to get your autograph now- your going to be famous! So happy for you!

Hiya really fancy goat curry now. Where did you buy the meat from and how much did it cost. I really want to have a GO AT goat! :D

Orla, well done you! 5 and half stone - that is absolutely awesome! p.s. Here if you need me x

Morning Sheila hope the back and tummy are better today. Good luck for WI today x

2 on for me this week please Daz. That's the last of my birthday festivities now over and done with. Thanks

Orla, Fingers crossed for good news on the phone call and the 1lb loss. Will be weighing into day to see what the 2 weeks of celebrations have done to my weight :eek:

Well done on the bargains! Love that sort of shopping trip. Didn't know about asda and their 4 week turnaround, will have to keep an eye on that. I did buy a black dress from there for £2 and a pair of trousers for £3.

Well done on the loss. Really close now. No knickers at WI for you next week! ;)

Hi Chezz glad to see you back. Missed you x

Didnt weigh this week due to bad migraine x

Well done Emma, that is amazing!

Not seen most of them for 8 months. They aren't the most observant of people at the best of times. I was quite disappointed that the last time they saw me they didn't notice I had lost 4 1/2 stone! They couldn't help but notice it this time though x

Thanks Orla. I know what you mean, we both have a lot in common. Am expecting a gain tomorrow, but I deserve it. Got my party this weekend, then it's back on plan for me. How are you getting on?

Thank you. Went to a wedding on Saturday and all the relis jaws dropped

First with my sister in law, second with my 2 kids and her hubby as well x

Thanks hun. Went to a wedding on Saturday and everyone's jaw dropped!

Had a wonderful time, thank you here's my before and after so far....

thank you. Family were in total shock when they compared the before and after pics. Had a wonderful birthday x

Thanks hun, that means a lot to me, especially coming from you who has motivated and inspired me many times x

I just read that and am still in shock... WTF! Why would you put that? Crazy!

Hi guys was my 40th birthday on Friday. Thought I would share my progress so far...

Hi guys, was my 40th birthday on Friday. Thought I would share a photo of my progress so far...

Well done on the loss hun. And good luck with the next 2lbs.. 7 stone. -WOW wouldn't that be awesome x

Wow, look at how much you've changed. Give yourself credit where credits due. You look amazing, hun. Well done x

What do you mean plenty of meat... Only 1lb worth, that's nothing!;)

Woo hoo, 1 more pound to go. Amazing! Just think next week you could be a target member!

Hi Orla, thought it may be the catch up loss you so rightly deserved over the past few weeks. Maybe your body and mind decided it wanted to hold on it as you were going into hospital just in case? Who knows! I've given up second guessing. I had one day off plan and was sure I would show a gain...

Oh no! Stupid scales. Roast pork sounds lovely. I'm about to dish up jerk chicken, tropical fruit salad and spicy rice x

WOW Orla. Amazing result! Bet you were surprised by that one. And your 5 1/2 stone award too.that is brilliant. That one was a special one for me as I kept sticking and it took me 3 months to get it, so I was over the moon too. What did you do differently last week to the weeks before?

SW chips sound delish. I've just had LM sausages with sliced cheese in WW pitta. Gorgeous, really hit the spot x

Hope it is just water for you, yo-yo. Try to concentrate on super speed foods, just in case x

Well done, Emma, that is awesome. Really close now. Enjoy the exercise classes x

Lost 1.5 tonight, thanks Daz x

Hi Fran, you poor thing. Hope your toe is getting better. good luck with the 4 day plan. Hope it gets you great results xx

Have a wonderful time. Sarah Millican is hilarious. I went with my daughter 6 weeks ago. The first half is a little risky, but watch out for the second half. I couldn't look at my teenage daughter it was that rude (and that's an understatement) enjoy x

Orla, we said that about the 15 stone category! It felt like we were in there with for years!

Missed you. Glad to see you back here and "on it" again. Really pleased to get the 14s at last. Birthday next Friday, so let's see if I can stay in the 14s :eek:

Wow you look totally different. You can see a massive difference! You look so tiny now. Well done x

Miss you, hope you are ok x

Hello All. Finally with a loss of 3lbs I finally get into 14s! Hello to all, old and new x

Goodbye! Finally got out of this stone. Feels like I've been here a million years! See you all in the next stone soon x

Hi Daz, lost 3 tonight. Thank you x

Hi Siggy. Hope you are okay? You've been really quiet, so I was worried about you. Hope you are ok! How was weigh in? Come back, miss you x

Hi Fran. Hope you are okay. Missing you x

Wow Sheila that is amazing. 2 more lbs to go, how fantastic is that. That is so brilliant x

WOW Becky, that is brilliant x

Thanks for setting this up.can you put me down for 14lbs please. Thanks x

It takes a long time for your head to catch up with your new body. I still go to the rails with size 26 clothes on it, even though I am a size 14/16. We are all too hard to ourselves. Enjoy your new size - you look amazing.

WOW! Look at you! You look amazing. Well done hun. You can see such a big difference. Celebrate the success you have had so far and good luck on the remainder of your journey x

1.5 on this week Daz. Thanks x

Hi Chezz, well done on going to see the doctor. So glad you are feeling more positive. Got everything crossed for you for Thursday x

Loving the pictures. You look amazing. That white dress is so gorgeous x

Happy Birthday to Nate. Hope he has a wonderful day. What have you got planned for the little sausage today Fran x

Welcome back, Donna. Missed you. Congratulations on the engagement and belated Happy Birthday x it's lovely to see you back x

Tiger Lily - non scale victory. There is more to weight loss than the actual weight loss- i.e getting into smaller clothes, being able to sit in chairs with arms and not get wedged in, and so on x I am 40 on the 11th April :eek:and wanted to be at target by then. Know its not going to happen...

Oh no! Did she mention anything else it could potentially be?

that is an amazing NSV. I have just bought a size 14 dress from marks and Spencer to wear on my 40th birthday. Last year I had dropped to a 20, the year before I was a 26!

Morning Siggy. It's so hard to stay focussed on * weeks. At least you know why and you know it will be gone by the following week. You may still surprise yourself, so don't plan to gain x

Thank you Tiger Lily x

thanks Orla. WOW back at you, 3.5lbs- that is awesome. At this rate you will be leaving the 14s and enter the 13s without me! Fingers crossed for the 5 1/2 stone award too. Both of us are focussing for a good week x

Thanks Mandy. Can't wait. Going to be extra good to get that 1lb off x

Well done. Getting closer and closer each week. That is fantastic x

Well done on the loss hun. Really sad to hear you are struggling so much. Here's hoping you get some answers at the doctors tomorrow. Thinking of you ((((big hugs))))

So close.... I know, got to stay focussed this week no matter what. So desperate to see the 14s. Been in the 15s for too long now x

Thanks guys. In a bit of shock as I didn't think it would happen this week x

2.5 off tonight. Finally got my 6 stone award x

2.5 off for me. Finally got my 6 stone award too x

2.5 off tonight. And finally got my 6 stone award too!

Getting slowly closer. Lost 2.5lbs, got my 6 stone award tonight as well x

Nervous, scared. Who knows what the scales will do.... Off to get ready now WI is 7.30. Will update you as soon as I get back x

Hi Siggy Hope all went well yesterday. How are you feeling today x

Only went to his group the once as I was dithering about changing. Are you looking at Thursday or Saturday? The Thursday one is really noisy as it's mainly mums with their little ones coming from after school. I found this strange as my current group is quiet, it was a shock at first and is...

Definitely a small world. Need to stay away from Oundle incase I run into your "friend" too. My group is near my home. I visited a group in hampton as I considered changing. Scott was very good, but the times didn't suit me.

just realised you are in Peterborough. Whereabouts? I am in Cambridge, near st Ives, but own a business in Lynchwood.

You too Siggy.

Yes, although I feel a fraud as I haven't got to where I want to be.

Been invited to apply for the slimming world competition of the Greatest Loser after being "crowned" last week in group.Quite scary x

Welcome Zappacat. You will find lots of support in this group. Congratulations on your loss, club 10 and being in the 15s -YAY! good luck x

how awful. I probably would of told her to f£&@ off. Why do people think it's ok to abuse people who are fat. They wouldn't do it to someone who was smoking. you are right though, it's her issues. She is scared of getting fat and big so she takes it out on other people to make herself feel...

Hey Siggy, got an invitation to apply for national greatest loser, did you get one too? You should have done, check your emails x

Not doing anywhere near as well as you! Lost 2 last week, which is the unexplained 1.5 off from the week before. Inching closer and closer to the 6 stone, but it's like 1/2lb at a time. Trying my best, would love to be in the 14s in the next 2 weeks, but with the way my body is messing about who...

WOW Siggy! Amazing loss! Amazing on slimmer of the week! Amazing in the 13s (well jel on that one!) and Amazing on the Greatest loser too x

I am trying, but having a hard week at work so very little time for me. 3.5lb off for next week seems impossible, especially with the way I've been yo-yo ing recently. Maybe the week after...

Miss you Orla :wave_cry:

Happy Birthday Daz. Hope you have a wonderful day x

Boo to the gain. Know what you mean about plodding on though... Do sometimes question whether it is worth it, then reality hits that there is no way I am going back to how I was. When is Nate's birthday. Really cute him writing his name in grandad card x

WOW Emma. That is an amazing achievement. I am looking forward to 7 stone and 1lb as that means 100lb loss! Would love to see some before and after pics too xx

2 off for me this week please Daz. Thank you x

2 off for me this week please Daz. Thank you x

Well done Orla, that is amazing. So pleased for you. Will miss you. I am inching closer and closer, another 3.5 to get out of here, 2 off tonight. Will try and be quick otherwise you will forget me. Good luck xx

Lost 2 tonight. Slowly inching closer to 6 stone. Only 1.5lb to go. Good luck for WI tomorrow x

Good luck with WI, Orla. I am about to go and get weighed in half hour. Catch up later x

Sounds like the doc knew what she was talking about. At least you are making some progress and getting answers. Off to WI, not sure what the scales will do tonight. Wish me luck x

Hi Fran. Sounds like you had a good time. Scales are definitely wrong. Hope you get some answers soon on the tiredness. Have a good day x

Well done for staying on plan, it's always hard when you aren't feeling well. Hope you feel better soon x

Glad you didn't take offence. I am concerned that sometimes you are being cruel and punishing yourself by lack of food and syns. I recognise this because I do it too. I know that when I ate very little and dropped my syns I gained weight. This led me to a down slide, just don't want you to go...

Hiya Vicci glad to see you are feeling really positive about it all. sorry, but it really don't think you are eating enough. A yoghurt for breakfast and lunch is just not enough. Your syns are always low, but if you are feel deprived, you won't stick to it. Worried that if you cut back too far...

Well done, Siggy. That is AWESOME! WOW! 6 and half stone, so amazing! Maybe the biggest loser will be next week with your regular consultant. I am still feeling blue at the stalled weigh loss. I know I couldnt try any harder, so I just have to accept that this is 100% result for the 100% effort...

Morning. Hope Nate had a good night and is feeling better now. Poor sausage x

Poor you. Get checked out by the doctor as soon as you can. I gained 1.5 last night for no reason! WTF is that all about!

Thanks guys. I didn't notice the SW scales fluctuate, but when I weigh at home they do. I will try the herbal tea, I'm already drinking about 2L of water most days. Orla do you have the mint tea first thing in the morning, or can I take it anytime? Well done on the 5 stone award x

just keep trying to focus on why it is worth carrying on with SW and the wonderful way I (usually) feel. I just keep sighing deeply today and even my colleagues have said I am withdrawn and look down!

Hi Orla I have been keeping a food diary ever since I started, even done an SAS log. The fast forward had its own diary which I also filled in. Shown it to the C and she cant see anything out of the ordinary. Getting so down hearted by it all. I just wish that effort in = results. Just dont get...

It must be muscle as it can't be anything else. Don't feel a difference on my clothes this week though :sigh: just so annoyed as I have been on a plateau and fighting in the same stone from October! I have been really focussed and motivated as I had a goal of losing loads of weight for my...

Woken up and feel so down about it all. Just don't know where I'm going wrong! Decided to give myself time off from the gym for the rest of the week and go back to EE and see what happens. :sigh:

Nate sounds so adorable. Good luck for today's WI x
