:party0038: totally well done hun!! looks like you're well and truly back:D

Hi Emm,still here,just waiting to see how you've done this week,fingers crossed:fingerscrossed:.....Have I been to this diary before?seems strangely familiar!:coffee:

well I think it's time for a catch up! Work being a bit stressful lately and I find I want to eat more junk food when I'm stressed:((aaaargh,I'm still human,lol;)) Have lossed the weight I put on over xmas so I'm hoping for a good loss this week. You seem to be really in a good place at the...

It always amazes me how slowly it comes off and how fast it goes on:cry:. Well at least we're all in it together.A couple of good weeks on plan and that gain will be history!! Looks like I'd better get my act together now you're back on form:D

Sorry to hear you're still full of cold hun.No one feels like dieting when they feel low. I think when things get back to normal,as you say,the diet thing should slot back into place. :character00264:

em,we need an update,lol:D

Hi again,hope everyone had a great christmas:D Anyways,weighed in this morning and gained 1 1/2 llbs ,so feel thats not to bad for christmas excesses.Having a few friends and family over tomorrow so then back on plan.It's being interesting reading everyones posts.Here's to a very skinny New...

Hiya guys,well feeling pretty good after weigh in today:DDon't know what I've done different but lost 4.5lbs this week and collected my 3 stone award. Em,your hair looks fab and yep the bow is a really nice touch!!( promise I was'nt looking at your roots,lol)got to do my significant others hair...

P.S will report on WI tomorrow:)

Em,as a (retired,lol) stylist from a 'posh' salon I'm dying (sorry for the cheesy pun:D)to see your new look. Hope you enjoyed your treat. Will get around to adding my 'mug' to Bert's to make it fair :eek: in the new year. Going to help Bertie find his stocking for santa.Hope everyone hear has a...

Well done for only gaining 1/2lb.Excellent damage limitation!! Home scales can be a nightmare to get an accurate reading.It's cost me a fortune to get some reliable scales as I'm SW online only.I have to make sure they are exactly in the same place etc every week. Once you slip into 'sod it'...

it's hard not to fancy something other than salad in this weather..it's cold! I agree,it's not worth making yourself miserable and depressed over christmas,guess we'll all have to get back on the 'waggon' after.Just got to make it a damage limitation exercise,lol. sure you'll be suprised at...

...oh and thanks for reminding me-Bert's needs a bath too.:0bathtime:

I can't see how it is possible to put 5lb on after such a big loss on your last weigh in and in such a short time.It's got to be some kind of fluctuation that will probably even itself out by WI:fingerscrossed:(maybe weighing yourself to often:rolleyes:) I finish work Friday for 4 days so...

Really nice to hear of someone feeling festive!We really love christmas too.Are you spending christmas at home-we go to my outlaws,lol-which is great.When do you guy's finish from work?I'm looking forward to getting some time out!!:Christmas02r:

Been unable to post untill this morning,just finished late shift:D Only lost 1/2lb,lol,at this weeks WI on Friday.Looking back I have'nt been 100% and still have'nt done much of the old body magic,but I am not worried as I have still lost and not gained.I have decided to not worry about just...

OMG,totally well done you and well deserved!!:dancing_snowman:

Now that's what you call a mushroom!! Looks very tasty and I've got to give you 10/10 for presentation,lol:eat:

think you guy's have made some excellent points there.I think how you look in your clothes has a lot to do with how you feel.It definately can give you more confidence etc. Looks like you're right Emmey,the scale Gods are looking down on you for sure with a predicted loss like that.I am hoping...

some things just have to be done! And,yeah,we did'nt help Amelia:(

Me too:party0036:LOL

Now this is toootally bizzare,and nothing to do with a large couple of whiskies,lol. We have voted for Amelia too whhooo!! Gonna get Berts a stocking-of course. The carrot story really cracked us up-great!:D

Watching x factor too!! Who you backing to win..

Hun your living room looks great!! One problemo though,you've made Bertie jealous,cos Bailey has his own stocking for Santa!:D You seem to be in a real cool place and back on a winning streak,tip-top.:party0011: Let's hope we both have a good week this week! Lobster MMmmm

Ok,another 1lb off.Been 100% all week,apart from the 'pizza incident':eatdrink051: Got to be down to complete lack of exercise,gone from running around all day to sitting on a bus 10 hours a day.Had a look and since the new job weight loss has minimised ( and ok discovered I'm human :psiholog:)...

Damn!! Its the pizza thingy again :argh:. The spiced lamb sounds tasty though. Really need to focus this week too-got an Emmey to beat:whip:

:rolleyes: might go and make a roulade,lol

Congrats on the 1lb off and club 10 and 2 stone:D,I know how you feel.I think it's when you are this far in (as we are) the going gets tough.After weeks of eating diet grub the treats start slipping in more and more and we get lazy on weighing the sins. I've had my first bad week (in terms of...

ooohhh,that hurt:tear_drop::sad0071:

OOhh hot choccy on a cold morning MMm.I have serious cravings for a feed too.Going to try those mincers as well (just got to be done!!):D Since being up on these extra early mornings and the pressure of training,I'm just to tired to come and do you a sin free roulade-don't know if there are any...

Those festive mincers by Heston sound pretty tasty (I like a nice mice pie:D) Do they really smell lime xmas trees? All that walking sounds a bit knackering,especially as it's been cold. Is your arm ok now?

I think it's very satisfiying dropping into the next weight bracket down. Of course I'll be keeping a close I on the opposition over the next couple of weeks,lol:) You still doing your dancing /exercise vids Emmey?

Well alrighty then,I love a good challenge!! Going to refine my plan a little,throw in some exercise and loose some serious pounds,lol.:cool: Wish you would'nt keep talking about food:cry:Ya making me feel hungry too! I think it's a ploy to catch me up:D It's good to see your fella is going to...

Glad you're still alive,lol,would have got pretty quite here else. Thanks Mini-mog for explaining,it makes perfect sense. So..weighed in today,been 100% all week and kept the sins low(under 5)every day and lost 1.5lb:( Ok,still a loss (but feel it's pretty crappy,when been good all week).Since I...

P.S..Emmey,well done on the loss,small,but still another step in the right direction:D

Got to say that's an interesting question Emmey.I feel exactly the same and I think Mini-Mog's reply was really interesting.I spend all day craving foods I should'nt too Just wondered Mini-mog,when you say going off plan seriously makes you feel ill if you can elaborate a bit on that? You have...

Really had to consider if I was going to post today-if I'm going to get billed,lol!But thought what the hell-it's worth it.The cost of therapy these days.:cry: I know it's not a lotta fun being home alone.It can be worth it if it scores him some 'brownie' points at work though. My wife is going...

First things first,that doggy is a real looker.I have had to drag Old Bert's away from the computer screen kicking and screaming-dogs eh.:serenade: ( I think he's in love!) Your arm sounds really bad,if it keeps getting worse it's worth seeing the quack to make sure you're ok. I can't believe...

WWhhooa,lotta posting going on here:) Seems to me you've had a pretty good time and thats what lifes about! I think It's no good constantly beating yourself up,it'll do more harm than good.You're doing the right thing-moving on from it and getting on plan again for the majority of the time. Last...

I'm glad you could'nt decipher that first line too.:confused: Anyways,I've come to the conclusion that It's hard to stay 100% all the time if you have any kind of life.I'm one of those sado people that does'nt get out much,lol. I have most of my sins over the weekend and stay 100% during the...

OOOhhh,that hurt lol (thanks for the congrats). Started training to drive busses and coaches with 'first Group'.If I can pass the tests all will be good apart from the shifts.Their Idea of early is 3am:( I for one think that 6.30 is early enough for anyone!! I need you to regain your...

Hellllooooo. Had to come on later today as started my new job this week.xtra early starts:( anyways weighed in..and lost 2lb this week,which I feel is cool as I have been loosing a lot the last couple of weeks,so happy with that. So ya going to kick my ass next week eh? Thats why I'm here to...

Have'nt taken any before piccies as have enough reminders via my holiday snaps,lol. The x-mas markets sounds a really nice idea-thought of doing that myself,but probably go to manchester instead of Brum. I know what you mean on the early morning's front in cold weather-fruit just does'nt do it...

:DJust seen dawn French's weight loss of 4 stone and Gavin & Stacy's Ruth Jones,4 1/2 stone amazing.

:wow:..now thats GREAT..well done Hun! Next week all those shiney awards will be Yours

.. Now this is bizarre.My wife just started reading this book yesterday and she said it's hard to get into..different folks different strokes,lol. The idea of Minky guarding your scales..now thats funny:)She's going to do Bailey out of a job:D P.s You're right, two weeks out of a year is nothing.

feel it took a lot for you to admit all that to us on here,thats not pathetic ( I think we seem a pretty genuine bunch-willing to help each other:cool:).Well done you!! I think Lynica makes some really good points,it's about discovering why we over eat,not just dieting. I've been overweight most...

Oohh,thats horrible (feeling starving) all weekend.That's a hard pain barrier-but you can do it!! I think when you've been in the 'zone' for a while you get used to feeling more hungry than usual and I think your stomach shrinks.However,I think if you can last out untill WI you could be on for a...

Ok,the picture is really cool...but,seriously, I think I would get arrested if I tried to make a 'stranger melt with my beautiful smile':D ..so not going to try that one,lol. Berties looking at me kinda funny..I think he's grinning at me!! P.S while your bloke is still here get him to do what...

Thanks a lot Hun...got the wrong end of the stick-thought he was away this week-sorry. You too are going to be a winner,this week, if I have anything to do with it,lol(I know you have a competative streak:D). Been x-mas shopping with my better half today:((I hate shopping,suprise suprise:)) We...

3 off for me this week,So really pleased:) How's your day been?Have you been ok with your bloke away?

....You guy's ( ok,Girlies,lol) think you are sad? I've Just been and watchedTintin in 3d:D and dragged my Mrs along too-very sad I know.I did'nt realise just how popular these twilight films and books were..where have I been?No,don't answer that.:D P.S passing on the chocolte hotel- now that's...

Going out to Jamie's place sounds like a really nice treat,especially after such an eventfull time last week.Like you say just be thinking about your choices..you'll still have a great time. It's hard being on your own and comfort eating to make up for it.I alway's used food as a comforter,but...

It's what we expected to happen...but I think you now have your head in the right place to be a total winner next week!That 3lb will be yours and this blip will be history!! I bet your friend was totally made up with her Miss slinky award.You will get there. Has pressure at work eased off for you?

Big well done me thinks!! Bet the look on that nurse's face was priceless!!!!:DAll you gotta do now is keep going and keep da faith. Funny how those places make you do strange things..My mrs is a secretary in a hospital here in sunny staffordshire and fetching her from work can make you do some...

AAhh the diet Gods have returned and all is well...well almost.I bloody hate that..when you open a pack of fresh chicken and you're looking forward to a tasty tea and then that stink of rot hits you..uurrgh..and to make it worse it's going to take ages or it's just impossible to get some...

Now it sounds like you're back!and back on track! Minky is right that it's very hard to stay the course when stressful events seem to take our lives over. You did the right thing in the end by posting and us all working through it with you,so to speak.Whatever happens at WI tomorrow it will be a...

:bighug:I've also decided to send you a big hug too,hun! You've got to ease up on yourself a little bit more..a bit less pressure.Whats happening at your end thats put you in such a 'huge mess'?

I absoloutely agree with you.I think this whole weight loss journey is a lot to do with having your mind in the right place..which is easier said than done. This time of year,around xmas, is really bad for temptation. I just keep reminding myself why I started SW in the first place and try to...

Mini mog's right never to late to pull it back,Just need to get your mind in the right place

mmmm whisky:7834:

Woman flu? Sounds nearly as bad as man flu!! (can't be that bad-can it:D) And yeah..go you...Fresh start

Ok,that is a lot of really's!!,lol. But it takes a lot to admit to it on here.It's easy to be posting when things are going well,I think.I can really identify with you on a lot of things.When,in the past I've had a real shitty time of things I would 'treat' myself by bingeing on everything I...

Thanks for the support Hun.:) Next Wed you will nail it for sure!! We gotta keep you motivated:D Losing the 1lb thingy last week really motivated me to get my act together this week.Been eating a lot of fish (and even more veg:cry:)this week for Tea.Big salad for lunch with tuna or shrimp:cry:(I...

weighed in this morning as usual and have lost..5lbs OMG,nearly fell of the scales (luckily Bertie grabbed me.lol).After losing a pound last week,I feel back on track. Hit my club 10 award and my 2st award so my fridge is filling up nicely.:D

Maybe we all wish it was a 'Friday feeling'lol

Guy's this has indeed been a dark day:cry:

Em what's happened? Sorry to hear you've had such a crap day!! must have been pretty bad to throw ur diet like that.R u ok?:confused: I still live in hope of having as many certificates as you on my trusty fridge!!:psiholog: And just wondered if you know if spuggle is still around from the old...

Said I'd pop back later to see how you did..I think 2lb is a cool loss at this point (you do realise I'll be eating my words come Friday,lol ).I think were burning off the real 'flab'now and this is where the going gets tough.I feel more motivated by bigger losses and I think you're the same-we...

Wallace does look a handsome boy!! It's a real shame over his skin condition,can it be cured? Just wondered,do your dogs have an owner whilst You're training them? I've just closed all my windows just in case:hitthefan: I'll pop back later tonight to see how you've done at WI (good to see you...

Going with out choccy when you have a bad craving is really hard ( I always crave something I should'nt at night-whats that all about) and you've done really well to resist them.I'm sure it will pay off for you tommorrow at WI,if it does'nt I'm going to stand well back,lol.:fingerscrossed...

Just checked out joes sausages-and they look good!! Do you know anyone who's tried them? They have a minimum order of 8 packs (I would have to mail order as I'm not near any of the outlets:sigh:),which is a lot of squashages to get through,lol Being xtra good this week and watching the wine...

we all gota stay on plan this week to get some serious losses in!!! :slap:

You're quite right-we can do it!!:D OOhh,I really hate the snotty thing after the poorly- sick thing,It always seems to last for ages.Glad you're feeling better though:party0011: velvet crunch crisps sound tasty.Are they easier to scoff with a bad throat?lol

weighed in to day and lost 1lb??? so I now know what that feels like.Yes it's a loss but after suffering 'diet pangs' all week???:mad: Will definately check my food diary and see what went wrong.I also want to be on for 3lbs next week P.S sorry you're still feeling like s**t You need to get...

:sick: sorry to hear you're poorly sick hun:( seems to be doing the rounds at the moment.Everyone at my place has had it in the last couple of weeks.I know when I'm bad you just want diet busting comfort food.anyways hope ya feel back to normal soon.

Well done Em,a loss is a loss! Feeling so good about buying new jeans two sizes down is very cooool;) How did the food go at group tonight?

Rockchick,I feel sure you'll get the support you need here. I have'nt got a diary of my own,being a bloke I'm a bit lazy,lol, but if you start one I'd be more than happy to look in on ya once in a while

Emmey,you guys seem to be having a rather accident prone week:(I hope Bailey is ok-It's difficult geeting stuff out of the oven with paws,even if you are a clever choccy Lab,lol. I'm not getting stressed at the STS on your scales this week,as they seem to have been rather dodgy in previous...

Really have to agree with jo on this one. Glad you made it through the day.Why is it that someone always has to bring temptation in to the work place-like a bloody big halloween cake?inconsiderate me thinks:D If you can get through this rough patch I feel sure you'll win out!! And,yeah,hunger...

I think as long as the Boo-boo's don't take over:booboo: you'll be fine. I definately agree with the other guy's going straight back on the wagon is the best bet.Just think how good you felt last weigh in :vibes:(added some extra vibes)lol

Gotta be honest,I walk pretty quickly to the pool so I can get immersed before I get spotted:o Last time I went out it was called a disco-now I feel old,lol (I really need to get out more).Does you good to get out and let your hair down though. Kinda like the sliding world idea:eek:

Hi Emmey reporting in as requested,lol Really pleased lost 3lb today:D and got my 1 1/2 stone award.Feels like starting to get somewhere with this now.This forum has been a great source of motivation. My skinny significant other has decided to teach me yoga (she is like Ghandi,lol)Must admit I...

:devilangel:we did tell you,lol. Really glad you're back to your old motivated self again. SW curry night sounds great(with booze:D)You'll be well on track for your 2st award. Is it you or Bailey panicking over lack of fruit?Hmmm MiniMog:superwoman:Whhooo!!

:banana dancer: What can I say..totally amazing!! well don hun. P.S please no more scale hopping though, my nerves can't take the strain for another week,lol. I'm pretty impatient too,when it comes to losing weight..just want to get it off as fast as possible:whoopass: MiniMog when do you...

I can feel those scale withdrawal symptoms from here in sunny staffordshire:)I knew your other half would come in usefull,we often do:rolleyes: Thanks for printing the roulade recipie,I detected a lot of drooling from over there:drool:,I'm going to give it a go this weekend:)and hopefully score...

guy's this has been a totally crazy week!! mad bouts of scale hopping( upsetting the scale Gods!) and water being absorbed through the skin adding weight(knew I should'nt have stood out in all that pesky rain)lol:rolleyes: Gotta say that roulade looks really great!! I don't particularly have a...

Emmey, had real bad couple of days myself last week and felt exactly the same as you. The thing is I could'nt put down exactly the way I was feeling either.Must admit I questioned why I was doing this and felt like I wanted to 'give in'. I think some days we just feel a bit or very'Blah'it's on...

Back again.. the way things were going I was going to be looking for a bra too,uurrgh:confused: (major £££) Never thought to do piccies of myself..well...I did,but I really hate having my picture taken.My Mrs loves taking pic's,but mostly of Mr Bertie(cos she says he's gorgeous!!! and her main...

P.S On a rant now.lol. I know whats its like to only have the choice of one shop in town,usually M&S for me:(.I would love to go into a cool,trendy shop and get something to fit:rolleyes:

Glad you enjoyed yourself shopping.I guess it does feel great when you can get something nice and it fits better. I really hate shopping (cos I'm a caveman,lol)but I think it's also cos I feel horrible trying clothes on and when everything you put on looks S**T and you feel everyones looking at...

ok,you asked,lol:) Typical day,I guess would be- breakfast-28g museli or porridge oats,milk,and loads fruit,fresh or frozen(berries etc) lunch-large salad with tuna or king prawns or grilled chicken/turkey breast and hard boiled egg.I use lemon juice with fresh herbs for a dressing. Some days I...

thanks.lol

Hiya Hun..weigh in today and lost..2 1/2 lbs:).I knew things would slow down just like yourself.Hopefully next week I should be at the 1 1/2 stone mark wwhhoo.I think when we are trying this hard and you've made your mind up to lose weight you just want to get it off as fast as possible. I think...

Me Too!!:D

:talk017: Emmey-big well done! need to find a way of putting my virtual 'stickers' on the fridge,I feel left out,lol.

:banghead: AAAAAAAArrrrrrrggghh,not the scale thing again:D- Ya got me stressing about your 2lbs too!! and you 'got'me with fake 'food diary-God I'm so easy to fool! Will keep all crossed for your WI tomorrow. Looks like my stone age computer has it's advantages over these new fangled phone...

impressed.. at least he payed for the food!! All this thinking has hurt my head :)

I made this last week and it was lovely.I also felt it needed thickening so I turned the heat up and reduced it to the required consistency ( completely 'pukka' and syn free thickening,lol). Also going to give the celeriac chippys a go..should make a nice change to spuds:D

You're right missSJ adding spices to oil releases the oils in the spices and takes your cooking to another level :eating: in my search for new recipie ideas,never though to look at youtube-feel a real oldie:( Looks like there's a lot of really good recipies out there!!

Girl, I can feel da guilt from here,lol:break_diet: As this about re-educating us poor mortals for life,I think it's impossible not to fall off the wagon at some point.As long as we don't fall back into our comfortable old habits,bit by bit, we're going to Win(me doing more deep thinking:))...

saw this piccie and had to post a link The week in photos 14/10/2011 Photos | The week in photos 14/10/2011 Pictures - Yahoo!

I'm working on getting the dog to drive me..just kidding:chores016: I've been really feeling the hunger pangs as well today,but been good saving my syns for some vino to go with my veggie pasta dish and Xfactor( as sad as it may be!) bacon,mushroom and tomato quiche sounds really nice-is the...

..guess I asked for that one,lol:D

Thats really funny..just had a big steak,egg and SW chippys for tea..MMmm You're right fast food can be really bad...especially now your body is a.. 'temple':innocent0002:

:happy036:Glad you're back spugs.We missed ya!! Really pleased you're still doing great..got a little worried there for a mo.lol. Typical female?saying absoloutley nothing:censored:far too many ladies here.It's sooo hard being a caveman:D

Hehe,thanks a lot for the help.going to sort it out when i've got a mo'. Feeling a bit 'knackered' at the moment,to 'knackered' to type,even,lol:rolleyes: weighed in today and lost...wait for it...4 1/2 pounds..so really pleased:DHunting dinosaurs for food is really slimming, I've found. You...

Thanks Hun:D As a techno geek person, can you enlighten me on how do I add those weight loss 'award' things to the bottom of my posts? I've only just upgraded from quill pens and parchment:gen147: As a warning, I will probably moanin' my ass off tomorrow!!

us moan...never!!

I feel the same.If things got tough she needs to post for a bit of support:gen126:

Glad your back..lol..decided to just post here,as it looks like spuggle has gone:cry: from the other thread. got my weigh in tomorrow,so fingers (and everything else) crossed. Is your new toy anything exciting?(just being nosy,lol) Homemade soup sounds a very good idea for a change! what sort ya...

I think it's important to weigh yourself at the same time and in same/similar clothes every week to get a more accurate result.Did you drink or eat before you weighed in? As princess-stevie says a food diary can be a big help:) I agree you'll probably lose a lot more on your second week, when...

Mini Mog is right Emmey,the losses do slow down.I know it's hard and I'll be the same ,I'm sure,when you're trying hard and you feel 2lb is tiny loss. I think you've had a great week:) though, you've been out for a family meal and still lost weight.You're doing really well-next week the 1 1/2...

looking at your last few diary posts I think you stayed off the scales;) I'm stopping thinking too hard before I get told off as well,lol..you girls are tough!!

Emmey you done good girl!!:D really pleased for you and I'm pretty sure the 'scale Gods' will reward ya tomorrow. I just got in (9.00) from being out since 8 and have had no time for any lunch (again :cry:(feeling sorry for myself) Really thought I was going to blow out the diet,but after...

You have done really well to resist all that temptation..I know it's sooo hard...But it will be well worth it.You will feel worse if you go for that cake..if you've had a good evening and stayed on your plan your winning!! maybe a hot choc will ease your cravings:sigh:

Must admit Bert's does cut a rather dashing figure in his shades..he's grinning at me as I type. Never thought to set a intrim target myself ,but I guess I like to lose 3 - 4lbs a week to be happy with my efforts. I'm trying to look at this as a change of life,rather than a diet, as I feel if I...

we're watching you:cool:

Made the SW vindaloo,from 'curry Feast' on Saturday.Though it was great,considering it contained no fat..anyways it cured my craving on a saturday night;)

He has a little more hair than me,lol I wonder if spuggle is doing ok. If she is stuggling..she needs to post(I'm doing to much presuming probably)but I think it's a reminder for me too! How you finding it being in a group,rather than just online,like moi. I've found this forum really helpful...

AAaaarrgh...can't believe you messed with da scales again,lol.Obviously the 'scale Gods were angry..resist girl!!!:D I'm confident you can resist all the no-no's at the beefeater.I went out for my dad's 70th last week..hard :8855:,but made the right choices.Just thinking of going back to the old...

with sliced onions you're going to be on a winner:D

Used to be a chef :cry: ( many moons ago.lol) and indian was my speciality.Will have to try and post a recipie when I have more time. I think these recipies are really great SW alternatives to their higher fat versions.I've even treated myself to SW 'curry feast'(always looking for new recipies...

Prayed to the 'scale gods' this morning..and lost another 3lbs :scale: which is cool :cool: Another 'poxy' pound and I'll get to my stone award:D I know what it's like to come home late and just think about grabbing something you should'nt cos you're tired and knackered:sigh: This is where I've...

well he's a real cutie,thanks for posting his piccy.Is he a big softy? Used my woofer as my avatar as I'm not as good looking as him,lol(he's our baby:o,lol) what is it with these dogs-they move in and take over!! wonder how spuggle is doing?spuggle u there?

...bummer,got to make 50 posts to see the pic's and upload mine.Must make more effort to post more:(

:sick0019: ...just asked and he still does'nt want to share his treats..but,thats fine by me. Checked this out and your're right people really do eat these..tooooo grossss.

Hi guy's, the yoghurt is a 'souring' agent which adds another taste to the recipie.it is also adds a slight creamy flavour and balances the spices:D sounds great and will definately give it a try!

The 'scale Gods' were looking down on you:bighug:

:worthy: 'I'm not worthy',lol really well done Emmey!! waiting for my weigh in on Friday.Had a bit of a tough day today,but have resisted temptation. My dog likes apples,but just thought he was a bit strange.So it's ok to feed ya best mate with the green stuff then :confused:? we give him...

Spuggle your back!!! Really pleased to see you're still mega positive(and resisting the choccy):angeldevil:lol. We all seem to be at the 1 stone mark-no sweat!!!(I hope) This gym thing has gone to your head:brainfart: which I think is great!!!,both you girls seem to be really getting the...

Mmmmm...curry:D

see you've been unwell-hope you feeling better.trouble is the temptation to eat 'goodies' is intensified when you're like this. Only 1lb for a stone is really cool and I'm sure you'll shift at least another 3(just stay away from those scales before your WI on wed,lol) nothing wrong about dancing...

have'nt had a curly wurley for years..fortunatley not fussed with choc:)...unfortunately I love everything else I should'nt eat (ooh yes-and wine;)) you really gotta stay off the scales,girl!! I can see mine eyeballing me from the bathroom:cry:-we need to be strong.

I weigh in on Fridays. just got a copy of SW curry feast..looks really good...even for a purist like me.Looks like a good way to be a curryholic and get a 'fix' without busting the diet. I think your're right I need to do something to push the old heart rate more than just walking..that's some...
