Emmalolz you could also think to yourself you are actually in the group, do as you normally would in the week and just pop in for a weigh. tell your Group leader you want a private weigh and you should be able to weigh and leave. I did this with a friend a few years ago it worked great for her...

Hiya Mumma Well done on your looses to date, I've been plodding in and out of this place the past 5 years, if its one thing that can distract an effort its family, friends and stress. I was very happy and loosing back in 2011/12 and exercising regular riding my bike. I think I had found my...

We all slip up at times and its easy to write off all our efforts in that one slip up, I've done it myself multiple times. I think oh well I've stuffed it now or more worrying is I've opened that gate in my mind that i had fully locked and now those pesky thoughts are stronger and getting...

All good Hanna , hope your Nans OK. I find the family stress thing the biggest interference with my healthy eating. I use to think I was being selfish thinking that way but I'm OK with it now it's a seriouse issue and I think protecting it has to be our first priority. I've been open with my...

This is awesome what an amazing result. Well done pure sign of commitment :). Reg The Green Tea, I've noticed a great difference between brands may be worth a trial run of a few. I've found from bitter literaly stripped my throat, to a dusty type taste texture, hard to explain. Then there's one...

I'm struggling Elm, it's strange I go a month no problem then all of a sudden it's like a tidal wave change! I'm bored out if my mind right now but I'm getting back in the juicing. I've missed it so much. As your taste buds change they become delicious. I load mine with tumeric, garlic...

Keep up the fluids, I've noticed that as I've lost the things that annoy me repeat. I hate the feeling of rolls on my back, so basically I hate feeling myself on myself. As I loose wieght this goes, but then it comes back. Not because I've put on wieght but because I've lost weight again and...

Elm you are doing amazing! It's funny you say carbs and lossi had a not so good week where I had a jacket potatoe and I lost more than any before. I'm in a no carb diet. I don't have potatoe bread rice nothing. I've had roast dinner 2 Sundays in a row. Admittedly it's what comes with them...

It so is Elm and I'm not drinking any right now :o( My PT works out a water intake by a person's wieght and it's lots more than what I'm drinking. I realy have to get a grip on that. Your foods make me hungry :D :D

Always the culprit 100%, it's amazing how we feel it when were consciously eating healthier. Hard to belive when we are eating what we want then we are bloated like that 24 hours a day and feeling like a slug caught in a syrup stream. The hidden suffering of the inner body :( .

That's what drives me too Donna, Ive a wardrobe of such lovely clothes I'll not need to spend a penny and they've been waiting ages for me. So Mummys comming home :D lol

The advice usually is your body does get use to it and once that happens you do have to do more on top. Which is why exercise is always raised through cycles until maintain is reached.

It's nice when somebody notices, it makes it realy. I don't like it if it's enjoyed for others acceptance or socialy accepting I think that's how people fail, it has to be done for yourself. It's so beautiful when you get a family member or friend who says it with realy meaning of depth and...

Sounds like the end is in sight ladyfelsham you'll soon be snuggled in the kitchen making your none bread menu up. It can't be easy concentrating on foods when you have hard working men folk frolicking in your kitchen :D:D:D

It sounds like they may of changed the syrum it was to thick to go through a normal kneedle o_O. Yes child birth certainly puts an eye opener on stubbing your toe :D:D

Hi Donna I order shish kebab with chicken, salad and lemon juice but I say no pitta then it's not under my nose. If I'm going out I can take over night oats, it's a realy filling snack to half half through any visit. I also can carry a cupa soup, if you order a cup of tea in a cafe just ask for...

HIya Rabbit I wouldn't worry what your friend has lost, on a first week there are liver deposits and water loss which can add up for any number of reasons. just eat healthy and you will get there, I don't know how you all still do it with a chocolate allowance and crisp for syns etc. If I didn't...

I had a STS but they happen. I've kept this week's off to so that's all OK. :)

weight can go up and down drastically depends on what your livers storing and what excess fluids you still have in you, I also believe temperature also plays a apart as we are living things built to exist in all areas of life, More so not in a house and out in the elements and for that to happen...

If you don't drink enough water it can stop you loosing, I was with a PT instructor before Xmas and she was allocating water by the weight of me. I know definitely that I don't drink as much as I should so Ive been more conscious this week. x

HI Hanna how you getting on, come over and join the Weigh in Monday thread :)

Hiya Tibbs, I had 2 cats hated each other with a passion never hurt one another, just hissed with attitude and the odd back up, lived together a good 9 years untill 1 got run over and the one left actually missed her!! ( so much like a human relationship its unreal , proper love hate lol ) ...

Congrats on the avoiding buffet type foods , I know its hard when they all start munching. I checked in GDs school bag this morning and pulled out a packet of cheese puff balls, ( my favourite of all things!) I could smell them before they were out of her bag and it took some strength but I did...

Fishfinger ??? ;):D

Blast from the past I did AAT in 1994, I thoroughly enjoyed it but failed my exam as I didn't pay the TAX man! of all people! lol Stress eating is what use to get me Rabbit and the second is social eating. Both sabotage any effort I use to make. I'm in the mindframe now that what ever it is that...

Hi Emmabo I wouldn't worry about your weekend away, have a think about it, why do we see food as fun. Its a nice treat but nowhere near as good a treat as what you've just achieved for your future. I think finding the fun in other things is part of our ability to change and I don think you will...

I've been cutting my foods down for around a month and hoping to be 10lb down this weigh in but I don't exercise until a month into my food changes as I find the 2 together to much of a challenge. I do thou train myself subconsciously to tense my Butt checks were ever I am, I now do it with...

CF having a STS ( stay the same)/wiegh in is still very good as it means you've maintained. Because you have to still acknowledge and manage what you are doing that week to STS. My Ex made the most disgusting comments about my body, and he was the furthest from a prince charming and had the...

I've got 2 sets like that now, I realy think it's the cold weather, pop a hot water bottle on the display first. I did it the other day at it repeated spot in but it's a pain. Who wants to fill a hot water bottle to get on the scales!/

YES I'm in the 12sss!!! 12st 13lb, I'm realy pleased as the weighing scales saga at my house continues and I wasn't sure. I was 13st 9lb last Nov so I'm on my way x

That's all good numbers!! Well done. Ii'm weighing later so "ill be back" :D

Grab a banana or anything that's not been processed and full of addictive's, then at least a mistake is a healthy one. So walk away from the temptation and pick up the good, that way also your brain trains to ask for that good when you want to be naughty. Google retraining taste buds its so...

That looks lovely and thick, I definitely will be goggling one of those Makers x

What's your water intake? Princess.

2.5 is such a good steady amount , congrats on being strong at home. It's strange but I can only get absorbed in better eating if I lock myself away for 2 weeks. I think k it's the external invite to have food with people. Soup sounds delicious, I've read lots of posts in here regarding soup...

How's it going DewDrop. X

Welldone on your loss and for the patience you did find, so many faulter when they get dispondant. :)

:D:D:D made me giggle, each to there own but 1000 calories a day? I think to lower calories you just gain it when you go back to eating normally. It's better to calorie count and retrain the brain to choose healthy options. If not the habits stay. What's going on the pizza?? nomnom xx

Get in there!! 2lb ... well done Rabbit keep up the good work. X

Woooo whoooo Monday Crew, All aboard the Skylark! A Date? Spill the beans ? ;) :D

Music Quiz Questions correct: 7 / 10 You took 87 seconds to complete this quiz. Total score: 613

HI Hannah Welcome to Minimins I think it depends on the persons choice really, I always do sensible eating and then integrate exercise its a slow loosing way but there are hundreds of cases on here and in the world of Slimming world looses. They are big numbers, I think someone posted on here...

I did the shred and didn't get to level 3 but only due to committing myself to do it everyday and I don't think its possible, I didn't see a dramatic change in body but mostly in my cardio. I lost a lot of weight on a mountain bike, great fun with a good play list on the MP3. The oxygen in the...

OOOO share the Menu, im Sooo nosey :D. Great News Reg hubby :)

There you go Redbiddy send me a nursery rhyme a sentence at a time and your sorted :)

Hiya Red what a fantastic inspiring read and you stayed in track through some realy wobbly times. That's hard to do so massive pat on the back, great roll model that if we turn to food it doesn't change or help what's going on around us. There's a Monday Wiegh in Thread if you'd like to post on...

I'm quiet repetative eater Wolf I think it's a safety area for me thou, I'm. A realy fussy eater and hate cooking. So I know if I have these certain things as my foundation I can kick a bit extra in if I'm up for it. I don't have a lot of time or money or energy. ( violins lol) so I have to be...

It's easy to get hooked on the scale readings it's this that so many people stop and get upset and dispondant and stop thier journey. The body being a whole unit of you will be going through the most amazing changes internally, it will be growing fresh big red blood cells, colourfull more...

Im sure your OK and maybe it's initial side effects if you've just started you will be detoxing from sugar. If i were having trouble id buy a sugar testing kit. Its a just Prick your finger stick blood on a reader and it tells you your levels, Diabetics use them. Low blood sugars are a no...

Aw Dewdrop, woman of my own path. When you get rid of the judgmental then life is grand, it's just waiting untill they raise its ugly head enough for you to see. My situation was a very strained uncomfortable unhappy one, but basically nothing more than lying in bed together watching TV a...

That's exactly the time that you keep going. I'm no expert and a terrible roll model but explained cardio/ stamina to my GD recently. If you can walk to a street light then do that for 4 days, then walk to the next for 4 days then the next for 4 days. You have to increase or your ability stays...

Faint, light headed, dizzy. Making me worry here. Could that be sugar levels to low? You shouldn't be feeling unwell on a good level food in put. Xx

Hi Toffee :nananana: Welcome aboard the Minmins Train, thankyou for Popping by my thread to say Hello, I so shouldn't still be logged in right now as much to do :whistle: but couldn't wait till later to come and say Hi. If you wiegh on a Monday we have a Monday Wiegh thread just started up and...

A Quick pop in as must dash but be back later..... check out my bad food diary it helped me so much!! And I'm pleased to say it's rather empty latey. X I'm so slow just realised we can Tag!! Sotagged you x

Hiya I've tried to update my Ticker, I managed to make one fine and have it on show last week, but in the preview its working but not once its saved? any clues please, Much appreciated.

I highly suspect the flu has something to do with that I had 2 pre-ops before I was safe for my 3rd but I turned up to them all, I just got sent home as to ill. I was so desperate to have it done. The NHS do stress that there is so many hours and money wasted on people not phoning in, its sad as...

Im just not happy carrying weight Dewdrop, the frustration of feeling a roll off my rib cage resting on my hips and i'm so agitated. I don't like clothes either, I think i'm the kind of person who should of been in the flower power days with butterfly's drawn on me bum, but right now they'd be...

Wow that's not great! it makes my mind boggle how some of these specialists can be happy working like that. My friend waited ages for help after a diagnosis, I thought then why on earth is the weight so long? and that was quiet a few years back. My nan who was 82 at the time had a fall a few...

Welcome to Minmins Dewdrop, what day do you weigh , im not on the SW but I eat consciously now instead of zombie on a life destruction road. 7lb is not to bad id lov to only need to be rid of 7lb, very lucky lady and i'm sure you will kick that away soon.

no that's exactly right, I had been in terrible pain for years , and been seeking help, when my womb was examined my Gyne said it was up with the worst shed seen for something that's like endometriosis but much much worse as it goes right the way through the lining of the womb?? or there abouts...

Sorry Debbie I had pressed post but had to go in and edit it , daft me keyboard skills of an elephant surfing :D

Good work on the water and I think I have Ghandi's other flip flop :D At first they were only going to remove my womb due to sever monthly problems ( I couldn't leave the house but Lyme Disease totally wrecked all hormone activity and I believe also the Merena coil which is the devils work in...

I think I got to day 16-18 of the shred as I never got to level 3. I was trying to do it everyday and I think that is ok but life's just not that simple, some people may run over at work an hour maybe 2, I'm a carer for my mum and I got up yesterday and still need to go back to bed, The shred...

I think writing down is a must, if you don't get the results you hoped for, you can then look back at what is the most repeated suspect item and illiminate that for a week and see if it was the culprit

CF I was thinking I had trouble the start of this week, then I assessed what is going in and its all good stuff literally all healthy foods, so there's not so much to come out. Our body's will absorb so much more of our foods now as there's hardly any junk ( left over unusable stuff the body...

Bless him I can relate 100% I really couldn't be bothered to get out of bed to go to the doctors or even talk to them on the phone but I knew I had to, I could hardly hold the phone to talk, I explained to the GP. I'm terribly sorry but I just cant be bothered to be here but i'm so grateful:D...

Donna that sounds like the flu I've just got its awful, his headache if he's not eating could be similar to one after dieting, low sugars, low sweetener, anything addictive like that and is hidden in normal foods. The flu I've just had was exhaustion and sore throat 3-4 days and I thought I was...

:bolt:Trapped :D:D

1, Managed to deal with a load of serious legal :sick0019: and a hospital visit on virtually no sleep last night.( :D:D loving these icons :D ) 2, watched 2 people eat the most delicious food and I didn't budge...

I don't think that's selfish at all Donna, you have a journey that although your together as a couple this journey is yours, only we can feel it, carry it , change it, and gather our own internal force for it. I have in the past put other peoples feelings first and ive faltered many a time on a...

whats your weigh in day lee?

What a result! still knocking out the big numbers well done x

Hope you feel better soon Donna, this time of years a devil for lurgys.

1, Ordered a Salad in McDonald's 2, spent the day with my Son and Grandchildren :woohoo:

Very inspiring Emma keep at it :D , see you next Monday xx

Ooooo my heart was beating I thought you were going to say LOG burner! Much sadness for all families involved and no one should need to out live their children no matter their age :( You definitely need to invest in a dash cam, your life on the road sounds more exciting than all my 30 years of...

Hope you've had a good day today CF, I noticed last night that a bra was less tight by about an inch, I've only lost 2lb but my body is so very different to what the scales are reading. I know if I don't integrate exercise soon i'm not going to loose anymore. Ive a busy week and weekend now with...

Yeayyyyy Welcome aboard CF the more the Merrier :) :)

Same here waters slowed down alot, I had a full hysterectomy, so I was a few months of not being over active. I'm not sure with just the ovaries. X keep going Debbie youll soon be day 7 & and on those scales. :)

Hiya Rabbit that quiche looks far to scrummy, I hope your MIL is better soon. If you do change over to Mondays I opened a thread today, your more than welcome to join us if you do :D https://www.minimins.com/threads/monday-wiegh-ins.356884/#post-7958812

Hi Emma Well done on the loss 4lb is amazing, i lov the excitement of " cant wait till next Monday :D " I did open a Monday weigh thread your welcome to join in and anyone else, when i look round the forums i see so many people posting losses but they are often under a certain diet thread or...

Church

Fantastic Congratulations, roll on next MONDAY!!! :D:cool::D

1, Weigh in was a good result 2, Felt happy all day ( the detox of junk is working) 3, Ordered a salad when I so desperately wanted to order a large breakfast :D

Thankyou did you weigh in?

2lb OFF

My threads long and old , if you want to hop on from new there's only 5 days worth. I was comparing myself to 3-4 years ago and i believe if i wasnt side swiped then id be in a much better place, but I've been through hell since then in so many ways. My path is now clear I can move forward...

Hi Debbie Welcome back, I'm on a return journey to but no specific diet. It took me a while to settle with out the old names cropping up but I kept on posting and chatting away to myself and on my 6 the day I got some new friends commenting. You've made the hardest move, getting started. I lost...

Hi Pati, have to admit untill i get that light bulb moment I can't start and when I do I go on a shut down for 2 weeks , no socialising and I hardly see anyone. That's how I build up a resilience to being around people and food. If your wieghing tomorrow I made a Monday wiegh thread, pop along...

Helllo I've come back to Minmins after a few years off and remember we used to have a Weigh in thread for Mondays, it was good fun and anyone can pop on along the way. Just announce your loss or raise or STS, from there people can link up with each other through their diary's and follow and...

Love your post , you know you fell off the wagon but still ended up determined, I've never done a SW, or WW diet. I use to go to one of them just to get wieghed. I stayed once for the talk and purchased a 4 pack of breakfast bars and ate the lot while I was sitting there :D

Rabbit I'm not sure how slimming world works but my snacks often are carrot batons, baby Tomatoes, cucumber slices. Very healthy and harmless and once your taste buds are retrained it's what they ask for. X

STS ( Stay the Same) is a good result, although you haven't lost you have lost any weight you may of put on this week, we still have our weight to maintain and on top of that lose more to get a loss. So STS is still an achievement as you still had to eat daily so you managed it realy well. The...

HI Emma D i'm not on Exante, just watching the foods, but im a Monday wiegher, First time this coming Monday, im always up for diet buddies, weigh buddies. When i started here first a few years back we had a thread Monday weighing and it got quiet a crowd in maybe something to start again if...

Next time your due snow buy loads of plastic storage boxes. Put them on your drive way like crazy paving. Then you can carry it away a box at a time :D:D. I desperately try to stay out of the kitchen. 1 as it's like a fridge. 2 Id rather tinker with my car then slimey squishy things...

Great news for the family of the little ones, and your couple may be found yet, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you and them. That's so sad about your Nieghbours it's very much like that where I live in the UK, Id not be able to go to someone's house and check they are ok,it's just in my...

Rabbit pop over to my link. I'm chatting away to myself it's quiet funny makes me giggle but determined to keep going. It's a very long thread which I've kept for me mainly and it's been amazing motivation to read how I couldn't fight what I was up against in my past to keep fit and it helped...

I'd be on cloud nine with that too. and raring to go, My first wiegh in since starting is Monday im excitedly nervous :)

1.5 is a nice loss, as long as it's not upwards it's a blessing, I said to my self a few years ago, even if I lost a lb a month that's 12lb less in a year, and always a lb less than I weighed the month before. I can be so impatient when I've been good but if the bodies not ready to give it up...

Hiya Mrssb, welcome to Minimins, I'm a carer for my Mum and noticed the weight wasn't helping me with daily needs and the future was going to get harder if I continued. I'm not following any certain diet but always happy to support :) x

Hi Sadie welcome to Minimins, theres loads of fun and support here :)

Welcome Zeppee, Minmins is fantastic, I've come back after a long break around4-5 years, i'm glad I came back before I got back up to my initial weight, I think if I didn't have Minimins I wouldn't of been able to kick start this again, when you make your diary it stays here which I found...

Congratulations Womble how wonderful, it's always nice to read a plan in action and beautiful rewards. Your little one will certainly be a fit little bundle :D. Thanks for the get up and go nudge, Last lose was with cycling. I lov my bike and my goal at the moment is 6-9 lb off so I can be...

Compost :D

1, I picked up a choclate milkshake in the co op, telling myself it's Friday and by the time I got to the cash till I had put it back. Realising the name of the week makes no difference it's still another day closer to make a difference and to get detoxed "Phew" close call!! 2, had a lovely...

Wieght looses from top to bottom, and goes on bottom to top. I think that's why a few of us are left with the leg & bum & tum.

Ground

Nine Inch Nails

Witches of Eastwick

Well done , and 12lbs since new years day :eek:

Awsome result well done HP :D that so motivational :)

How scary for you Suzie, Sending over thoughts and strength. Please don't think your selfish, we all have to still get by no matter what has happened in the world. You being cold isn't gong to change what's happened. I get out and about and help in charity events and there's ways of helping out...

Well done for starting that's half the battle, I know weigh ins can be such a worry and the first one is so important to boost us along our Journey. Sometimes its not always about the scales and there's changes going on inside that are not only losses but aid them another day, id say never let...

Go on pop a film on , I always remind my self of a polar bear larking around in the Zoo as that is realy what I get upto, legs on the sofa, body up the wall, I should film it and put it on You tube :D

Yeap its the same as making gravy, you can also use an OXO, another quick fix if looking for nibbles is a cuppa soup with half a tin of Sweetcorn as an evening snack it makes it more filling.

Well done for not Caving , its the outside waves that seem to knock everyone over when they are trying to get on a better mind frame, so shut those shutters and lock the hatches :D I've not started exercising yet as I started this with the worst Flu ever that's still knocking me a bit 14 days...

I know mine is partially link to cups of tea so very stubbornly just made a hot marmite drink instead. Positives breed positives im sure of that and love this Thread :D

Hiya CF70 I've always think the hardest part is starting so big congrats on that step and you first loss. Does the Exante diet allow for veg / fruit etc?

Woke up feeling meh, this threads a realy good pick me up. 1, Started organising belongings for house move. 2. Booked to Pick Grandaughter up from School ( always a lovely treat) 3, Realy Refusing to give into this Mehhh feeling and im sticking to my path.

I ordered the 30 Day Shred DVD back in 2011 I got to level 2 and around day 16 it's hard to commit everyday which is what I was doing. I didn't see any dramatic change in body but definitely in abity to do it so Cardio and strength went up.

Hiya Womble great to read how active you are it takes such commitment and really inspires me to get going myself. I do spend sometime round weight lifting women but taking photos, and many who have said to get to that last bit off and toned they had to go on to the heavier loose weights, not to...

Do you have Hot Water Bottles? I snuggle up to 2 every night. So Cosy top and bottom :)

Congrats on the 10lb that's an amazing weight to lose :), Im back in after 5 years but not following any diet just watching what I eat and will integrate exercise next Monday and next Monday is first weigh in for me :D

Wow little blubbing started here, that's beautiful and how blessed you were to spend time together, most definitely a positive your paths met. Well done for not bowing to Cake offerings, Ginger would be proud of you :)

Welldone Mrssb that's the first step done right there :)

Doing ok Thanks Lee, weigh ins for me is Mondays and i'm actually looking forward to it for the first time in 5 years.

Yes I find it hard to understand how the body doesn't naturally just want what's best, but we are up against a lot of chemical and modern day intervention in almost everything on the shop shelves. Natural is the best way forward. I'm not on SW I''m just conscious eating. There's so much pressure...

I think its that buz of excitement that lets you know your on the right track, I haven't had it for almost 5 years :eek:

Lee me ole Mucker ;) how you doing today, i'm holding in there ok, still eating good, can feel some changes going on. Looking forward to getting back on my bike. I know your on the nutrition powder but you on anything else SW ,WW or calorie counting, sensible eating etc .

What's Hump Day lol

My reward is i'm allowed to let go of the feeling that i'm out of control. It will be the dancing while not wobbling and the running for the bus without being out of breath. Every week I go without toxic food i'm happier and every day I get more strength I can dance longer. Everyday I find...

Started Sugar free Monday 16th 2 days ago, i'm craving now, but i'm winning :D . Id rather have a Satsuma for sugar now than the nasty stuff :/

Hips , bum upper legs, terrible its like everything I eat just plonks itself there. The hips go almost as soon as I start changing my eating habits but its the shape of them its quiet funny if I lean back they stick out like a signal i'm about to take the corner on a bicycle.

I'm as you so pleased I've come back in here, 1 reason I spent so much time on Facebook which brings no motivation what so ever , and was destroying my eye sight and expanding my arse. So that's a massive benefit to me and the 2nd being I also feel like I've come home, as I've been lost myself...

I want 11lbs off as that's when I remember being comfortable and Happy in myself, but if I can go down 2lb a week for 5-6 weeks then it slows down i'm ok with that, as long as I exercise things will happen & as long as i'm food intake conscious things will change :) but your BMI is a good target...

1, Took my Mum out for the day 2, Felt a flood of reminiscing and Motivation 3, Ate Breakfast ( don't normally start eating till 4/5pm) 4, Integrated Green Tea into my days

My motivation a few years back and I can feel it resurfacing is the thought of how pure my blood is running through my veins, it sounds odd when i write it down :eek:, but it was a great motivator. The other was not feeling myself processing all the rubbish, I got to a point where if I ate bad...

Darccc I've never tried SW, but I needed to loose weight 9 years ago for an operation ( my decision but it was the best for my health too) and having 5 stone put under your nose by a Doctor is quiet a big ask. Id say anything you can do will aid your quality of life and take it a step or a...

HI Donna very envious of you being 11stone :D, id be dancing like a fairy in the woods if I was that light, i'm back after a few years away. Following my own eating plan which is just to be sensible. Always up for support or getting some support as we all have those off days. Congratulations on...

That's amazing Pati what a belief boost, you'll soon be where you want to be. I've just started back again after a couple of years off and I totally get you with the late eating, I look after my mum and often start eating around 4pm so by 1am i'm still searching for food, but this past week...

Amazing all the time I was in here in 2010 I never knew this, makes it even more of an amazing place. Well-done and Thank you for keeping it alive x

18lb. :)

Brilliant result and great Photos too, wonderful inspiration Thank you for Sharing. :)

16th to the 21st Jan 2017 First Week back on it Monday...A Salad came with croutons and sauce ( that's about as bad as I want it to get at this time:) ) Tuesday. ....3 bowls of cereal flakes = to much Milk. Wednesday , very Small mashed potatoe + Coleslaw on a Salad, 2lb off

Hi Cynical Girl, I just monitor my food, I think we all know in a way what's good and bad. It's just waking ourself up and realising and writing it down realy brings it to life when it's getting out of control. I've got a very long thread x 2 which I'm hoping to get made into one from around...

Going to restart doing this as i'm back in Minimins. Jan 2017 :)

Thnakyou everyone who replied, and you are all so right. It was My Reach of desperation when in a dark place, Ive managed to relocate my old long threads like a guiding beacon, so ill try to get this one deleted. :)

I'm losing Wieght, I'm so glad to see your still active and taking control, I've come back on after 4 years of a mind numbing relationship which blew my world apart. Lost all that was me I had no guiding lights no ports to dock, nothing . So I've Reactivated my old thread that I found like a...

HI Everyone I was in here a few years ago and have to say its the kindest place I've ever been in for support. I lost a good amount of weight and enjoyed running around feeling weightless for a couple of years possibly 3 and half, the longest I've ever kept weight off for. I was so pleased and...

whats maintainer banner Mel? x

Hi Mel well ive managed to keep it off and im still only on 1 cup of Tea a day. Its been a true blessing as i feel i now have a full reading of what im putting in my body. Im at my goal wieght for when i first ever joined Minmins. Its taken almost 4 years from 16st 9lb to 11st 9 lb but the...

Well ive lost 6lb but puerly down to either food poisoning which i get est twice a year or a virus. 48hrd so far been advised could last 7 days. Passed out s couple of times bit of dilussion the normal what i get. Gutted thou as cant see mum or grandaugter for a while. Will certainly take a...

I hope so now Mel anythings better than sitting waiting. The private sector is a hop in and out as you want to. You can pay to see a speacialist usually 180 , then to get tests often around 200 if bloods or biopsy then get results. Mums biopsy was initialy a private appointment. Once mum was...

Thanks Mel and thank god i did push today! As the appointment weve been holding out for on the 13th Aug is pointless, its been made by mistake by rheomatoid doctors clinic. After they checked it wasnt rhemotoid nodules mum was released. We should of by now had podiatry app for shoes and! we...

Manged to attach a pic Mel Its 4 times the top of my thumb

Doc reffered for Biopsy on arm lumps and they cleared with dapsone. Then feet started but threy say feet are different thing. Ive got photos ready. Scans are done but theyve just extended her appiontment z month as the doc on leave. Im trying to tell them that mum is loosing her spirit to go...

Feeling back on track and very pleased with my body results of the Diy work out. Amazingly i already see the difference in stopping! So maybe i need to add the shred in again just a couple times a week. Bern Having CFS air hunger the last 2 weeks but these last 3 days its to scarey and like im...

Hi Mel sorry been so absent. When Mum came back i still had many mini jobs to do such as wire running and cable buying. Also the night mum came home we called an Ambulance. Mums had this problem.about a year where shes randomly sick when eaten as the food wont go down but yhis time the pain was...

Thats awfull Mel is there any way you can force the issue due to already being placed and your budget being allocated as such he couldnt afford to go if they dont honour it. ;)

I dont know how people measure food out...id never eat as to cba to do it. My DIL lost 3 stone doing it thou so its proven. I had a nice afternoon off from 4 and an unplaned night in the town and i realy needed it. Im so much more positive And revived plus i slept in my own bed which i think...

Hi Mel Your jobs sounds eww lol gloss is my biggest hate thankfully mums hasnt needed it. Thats on the cards for next couple years. Where on the same mission amd wow what a work out. Im wrecked lve run between places so much that the awfull foid ive eaten should be counteracted. Ive been to...

I know Mel i have to totaly rid my house of everything and i cant be around bad food untill the nrw habit kicks in its a nightmare. Im painting and cielingtv to wall with shelf below. New family picture wall frames and a shelf under each one to hold an ornament of sentiment from that person...

Hi Mel It would be amazing if they could sort it out its been very bad since MRI day. Gds birthday 27yh July. But she was born August. Its early so she can share it with her nursery friends as she leaves them then after almost 3 years. Not sleeping till 5am again quiet tired now which is going...
