    4000 calorie fail - have you ever?

    Hi all! I was SO impressed yesterday on my first fast day yesterday - 501 calories. And I walked into town which used about 140 but I didn't eat them back. Then today, I just ate non stop. How on earth can I do so well on a fast day and eat like this today? I'm such a prat. Is there anyway...

    20 weeks to lose 40 lbs ...

    I've just worked out how long it is until the wedding where I'm going to be bridesmaid and ... it's 20 weeks!! I've got 40 pounds to lose so a 2lb weight loss per week isn't impossible.

    Who or what sabotages your weight loss

    Definitely 100% the way I handle emotions, although I try to find other reasons or other things to blame. The phrase "there's so much going on at the moment" has become my mantra over the last year or so and thanks to that I'm now 2.5 stone heavier.

    From 14 stone to 13 stone

    Thought I'd hop on the scales this morning and find my starting point ... 14 stone 12 for me. Heaviest weight for me so it was a bit of a shock but I'm feeling positive, got everything I need coming via home grocery shopping this afternoon. Wow ... hope I can do this?
