Weighed in at 17st 1lbs this morning so hopefully only a short stop here!

pants

I'm hoping it might kick start me again into some decent loses rather than being complacent...

We can, and we will. WI tomorrow. Last one with my current group. Feeling really quite sad but hopefully new group will be as lovely!

Count me in hun. Not been about much with preparing for the move next week. I'm still hoping to get my 6 stone but need to find my mojo again.

Weddings are ridiculously expensive, wish we had just used the money to get married abroad and had a nice holiday lol. I am SO excited though, need to get moving house out the way then I can focus more on planning. I have WAY too many cake idea's. My colours are turquoise and pink (bright and...

Congrats on the loss hun, stick with whatever works with you, you know you body and it's better that you enjoy the plan so it doesn't feel like dieting. How is you head feeling now hun? Not all sorted as am just waiting to hear about something financial which will effect my budget (criptic...

Right, I am meant to be getting weighed tonight but am in SO much pain with star week so don't know if I'm leaving the comfort of my water bottle! We shall see hoe I am in a few hours. I'm so bloated I'll probably be in for a gain (despite being good). Who knows with my body. I'm exactly the...

Love your Mr Grey Donna! When do you get married Sammy?

Hey hun, I thought I'd come and have a nosy at your diary...just followed the fishy smell! Keep up the good work!

I have visions of Tina being striped in orange, smelling of lemons and toothpaste! I'm in so much pain, first star week since having Miles...OMG!!! To top it off he wants to be attached to the boob 24/7 atm which doesn't help the cramping!!! OWWWWWWWWWWW... gonna go self medicate with chocolate...

Hey hun, We move in 2 weeks! Super excited but SO much to do! Not a fan of the pics but needed to put them up to help kick my bum! It was a bloody good night though. You' think being a night out with SW ladies it would be vodka and diet cokes all the way...was it heck... we started out with...

I should point out that I am very drunk which doesn't help but in my defense it was the first time I'd been drunk in over 2 years!

Right, so I have been faffing about for weeks (stress of getting ready for house move, boys being poorly and general life getting in the way). I'm up by 0.5lbs overall and at weigh in on Weds I was 16st 13lbs. No more messing about. I have 2 more weigh in's at my current group before we move...

Thanks hun. New toy?

Oh and another positive is now that Miles is feeling better and teething has subsided (at least for now) I am getting more sleep as he's not wanting to live on my boob! This makes me happy as I keep reading that you NEED to sleep to lose weight well.... this is what I'm blaming the last few...

That's my wedding fund plans out the window then!

Oh really, so I'll have to stop posting all the nude pictures and offensive comments?!?!:D

Hey ladies, Sorry have been AWOL of late. Just been a bit all over the places with stressing about the move, getting money for the move, kids caught some horrendous virus (I swear to god it's this house and its nasty mold spores and slugs). Miles had it terrible was literally running a temp of...

House fell through... back on the hunt. Sorry not been about, house hunting, teething, tantrums and general mehness! Congrats everyone on losses. Will be back on more when things calm down!

I'm sure something will come up it's just frustrating in the mean time. Doesn't help that I'm impatient. We'll have to agree to share Mr Grey, sure Andy wouldn't mind, he can have some time doing something geeky lol Where are you up to in book two? I'm sorry too but I believe everything...

Right ladies, sorry have turned in to such a lurker. The house we hoped to get has fallen through because apparently the landlady wanted to move someone she knew already in or so b*llocks! To say I'm annoyed is an understatement. We've been so busy ebaying lots of our things to raise money for...

Well currently in Plymouth but moving to Packmoor in stoke-on-trent in Staffordshire (hence the cheapness!) but its meant to be quite a nice area. It's more out the way then I'd planned but it'll be fab for the boys! Can't wait. Will not miss this house or its slugs!

As soon as we get the money together, definitely by the end of July! So excited, 3 bed, 2 bathrooms (1 with loo and bath, other with loo and shower), nice kitchen, garden. Nice area, Drs practically across the road, primary school end of the road... 450 pcm!

Madness... Hoping we'll be at this place for at least a few years! Its a 6 month initial contact...

Thid will be my 11th move in 9 years I think. 4 of those were at uni though! I don't mind the moving part so much, but distance and kids arr not a great combo!

No, nothing like moving around 250 miles with 2 young kids! Fun times.

We'll definitely be moved by the end of July. Sooner the better really.

There is no point moping about it. Just need to get on with it!

Yes, still have to wait for 100% confirmation but should be OK. House is lovely. Am VERY excited! I WILL have a good loss this week as this is getting silly now, wouldn't mind If I was being naughty!

Good news... We found a house yay! Bad news is a Sts this week. Good news is I'm not gonna let it get me down as I know my body will catch up eventually and to encourage it, gonna have a bash at a few success express days this week!

Me either...

I don't mind the moving part, have done it so much over the last few years, think this will be my 11th move in the last 9 years (4 of those were whilst I was at Uni granted). Although it is considerable more stressful with kids! On the plus side it should be good for some body magic! That...

I thought I had been losing at quite a reasonable rate:confused: I've averaged at less then 2lbs a week (just over 1.5lbs a week) and my goal for Dec only means an average of 1.6 ish lbs a week so I wouldn't say that's too quick, and this weight will NOT be going back on ever. Thanks for your...

Hey ladies, haven't really been about much last couple of days, we've been on a major ebay fest trying to get funds for the move and also on a hunt for a nice house, have one I like the look of that we are going to call about on Monday, wish me luck!

Recipe? Fifty shades of Grey....I've finished mine last week! OMG is all I can say for now :whistle:oh and I want my own Christian for the weekends!:D Enjoy! Have a lovely evening! Hey ladies, haven't really been about much last couple of days, we've been on a major ebay fest trying to get...

Well done hun, well deserved!

I can believe it, the last 7 months has flown by!

I do he he. Less than 13 months to go!

Aiming for the same again (at least) by Christmas... We shall see. Lol

Exactly... Every loss counts. Its just about seeing the bigger picture!

Thanks hun. Although I'm not sure what my body is doing I know that as long as I carry on being good it will soon catch on lol

0.5lbs off. Bit disappointed but won't stop me having another good week this week. Am on a mission to up my water this week too. Bring it on!

Back on it from the morning. Having a Crabbies Alcoholic ginger beer. Am half way through and already feeling a little squiffy. Shows how much I drink/how much of a lightweight I am lol.

Oh and will post my food diaries up this week... so you can all check to make sure I'm good. Also need to make sure I have my extra hex A's I'm entitled to...and consultant said I could get away with going over my syns but will try the water and hex A's first.

It isn't what I wanted and feeding is still all over the place but no where near as bad, pretty sure it's linked to my shocking water intake too...I can go all day and then think 'Have I actually drank anything?' so have resolved to drink more. Have bought myself a liter water bottle and I WILL...

Dress looks fab, lovely colour!!!

Hey ladies, sorry not been about much this week. Got a bit caught up reading fifty shades of grey in any free time I've had *blush*. Well deserved of the hype and OH approved as it inspired lots of 'special body magic'. Not had a great week but hoping I haven't done too much damage! Well done on...

Today is officially a flexible day... just had pizza hut and a slice of cheesecake. My dad is down for a visit and wanted pizza... I couldn't say no oops!

Well done chick. Sounds like you have a lovely group too!

Good luck for the Thursday weighers!

I'm sure I will!

Congratulations hun. How are you getting on? Which plan are you following?

How are you getting on so far? Did you join Slimming world?

How much more are you planning to lose? Did you follow any particular plan at the beginning of the year?

I do hope so, with a bit more on top would be nice lol!

Hope you've been keeping it warm ready for me!

Currently a size 20 btw

Well the 'big news' ....A while ago I went to a bridal shop to try on so dresses, including the one I've been using as my 'thinspiration' and unbelievably even in a 22 it looked fab and I knew it was the one. Anyway, they wanted about a grand and a half (that's WITH the 20% discount cos the were...

Well I'm back with a 1.5lbs loss... wanted more but happy am am FINALLY into the 16s!!!! Want 2lbs next week for my 3st award! Bring it on!

Hi, lost 1.5lbs this week. I've had to reassess my targets after a very slow few weeks. I've readjusted them so they are still challenging but achievable. Bronze - 14lbs (6.5lbs done, 7.5lbs to go) (would need 1lbs ish a week) Silver - 18lbs (6.5lbs done, 11.5lbs to go) (would need 1.5ish...

Oh yes, never wanted to wear something more lol! Oh yes, totally buzzing. I just can't wait until I fit it! Planning ahead is always good. Wish I'd thought about it lol. Well back from weigh in and am reporting back with a 1.5lbs loss. Not as much as I'd hoped (especially after last weeks...

Well I made it into the 16's tonight. I want 2lbs to get my 3st award! Bring it on!

Hi, lost 1.5lbs this week making me 16st 13lbs so I'm finally joining you after far too much faffing in the 17s!

Right ladies, I'm finally leaving you. Lost 1.5lbs tonight and am now 16st 13lbs. Hopefully I won't spend as long faffing about in the 16s! See you all there soon, although you better be quick, I don't plan on being there for long!

Lol... Don't get your hopes too high

I'm still about too but have got into a bad habit of reading posts on my phone and then forgetting to reply later when I get on the puter. Will post after weigh in as have some interesting news... Well its interesting to me lol

Right, thanks ladies, I guess as I just find it hard to see the difference myself, I mean obviously I KNOW there is a difference and that's reassuring but it's just seeing it, it probably doesn't help I don't have any full body pics from when I was at my biggest. Although I'm a little confused...

Right, well I got Andy to take a photo of me before I went to the bridal shop or else I'd never get one done. Sorry it's not in a skirt and heels, next time maybe, but wasn't trekking to the shop in heels. The pics aren't great and i'm not really sure anyone will see a difference the the image...

I've had nothing but bad experiences from Tescos the last few orders (looking forward to moving as the nearest depot is obviously a bit ****!). Do complain, the customer services are really helpful and you'll probably get something free. We are reliant on home delivery as neither of us drive.

That's my thinking, I know the weight will take more work to come off as I get smaller but it's all part of the challenge and I think I've given myself a decent time scale. I'm off to see the dress later today woop!

Thanks girls, I hope so...I'm actually more concerned It will end up being to big (ha ha) Well we shall see, seem to go down a size every stone or so, am a 20 atm. I WILL be in 18 before the end of July, hopefully a 16 by Oct and hoping to be a 14 by Jan... we shall see. Didn't mean to make...

Thanks hun, I will unfortunately have moved by the time I go for fittings, I say unfortunately, I will still send them photos of me looking amazing lol

OMG I'm so excited. A while ago I went to a bridal shop to try on so dresses, including the one I've been using as my 'thinspiration' and unbelievably even in a 22 it looked fab and I knew it was the one. Anyway, they wanted about a grand and a half (that's WITH the 20% discount cos the were...

Hope you feel better soon and well done for making good choices!

Hey ladies, not had a chance to take a photo today, will try tomorrow. BUT... I have done something wedding related... OMG I'm so excited. A while ago I went to a bridal shop to try on so dresses, including the one I've been using as my 'thinspiration' and unbelievably even in a 22 it looked fab...

Yay! I had a NSV and I didn't even know lol

I think it was more to do with the fact that I was in a skirt... think they were shocked I had legs (It was still past my knees) plus I was wearing some high wedges! Will see if I'm brave enough for a photo tomorrow lol

I'm sure Miles would approve of ice cream flavoured boobie juice! he he You say it's got to show, I know I've lost inches but I just don't see it. I would want honesty or it'd be pointless! Only reason I thought about doing it was that I wore a skirt and heels to weigh in on weds and when I...

Hey chick, I had a disappointing and undeserved STS. My consultant thinks it's a combination of factors, upping exercise, feeding Miles lots due to him being poorly and possibly not eating enough for those two iykwim? How are you getting on? This heat is mental!

Whats NSV? Sorry not been on much, have been reading on my phone, been so tired and with the feet I'm like a mobile water bottle for my youngest is draining. Not done much exercise, eaten fine (except some sneaky ice cream with my little monkeys earlier - in this heat I think it has to count as...

Well done, see you soon!

STS. Not amused as have upped my exercise :character00115:, been 100% and ate so much super speed stuff not to mention having a good variety...I was like a walking slimming world advert this week!:superwoman: My consultant thinks because of upping my exercise and all the extra boobie feeding...

Flipping STS, not happy. Still 17st 0.5lbs:mad:

Thanks hun, gonna need it, feeling really bloated. Not sure if having cous cous for lunch was a great idea...

Well it's weigh in tomorrow and I'm hoping for a good loss although as long as I get 1lb off I'll be happy as that will take me into the 16's woop. Ideally I'd like 3.5 but my body has been really strange the last few weeks and isn't playing fair so who know's!

My first attempt at a cupcake bouquet, not completely happy, but it's not a complete disaster either.

Fantastic, you're obviously doing something right. Well done hun!

Yeah... he has loads on his 'bits' so imagine he will be pleased he wasn't too old lol.

It wasn't too bad, with a bit of tweaking could be great! Had a relatively constructive day considering Miles has insisted on being attatched to me for most of it, he just wants mummy cuddles (and booby time). Have been researching and making phone calls to do with my planned route into...

Recipe??? Lol, sounds like you had a good weekend. Can't believe it's Monday already, not really sure what happened to my weekend...it certainly wan't slept away! Anyway, good luck Monday weighers, I currently have Cauliflower based pizzas in the oven...figured it was worth a go. Will let you...

You are in. Just update your losses on here and Corky will stalk the posts and update as and when. Hmmm... Maybe you'll have a big loss next week. I don't know what to suggest... how is your water intake?

Its not pathetic... A loss is still a loss! Do you keep a food diary?

Oh and our oven is finally fixed... Only took a month!

Sorry to hear about your food dilemma but you have such a fantastic attitude to it, love it! Hope you have a great day! Well Miles Chicken pox spots have finally started make an appearance so at least our house can get back to relative normality soon!

Its possible if you go back to basics and 100% it. You can do it!

1.5lbs for me this week too

I know, I know. Another week another loss and all that Jazz. By the end of May we'll all have our 3st shinies!

Yeah....we can do it! grrrrr

I better lol!

Thanks hun, I'd really like it, and know it's possible. What's your goal this week?

After this weeks 1.5lbs loss I am down to 17st 0.5lbs so I should be leaving you ladies next week!

Well back from weigh in and its 1.5lbs off. Am a little disappointed as I've been on it totally this week and last. Only things group could suggest was that my youngest has upped his boob intake due to feeling crappy so maybe I should have upped my calories a little too and also I need to make...

Latest August... Hopefully before lol

Well done, fab loss! Exercise is one of those things that you think is going to be awful but you always feel good after and usually enjoy!

No, from Midlands area, we moved down for Andy to start at the Uni but it's not worked out and we'll be better off financially and support wise as we are going to move nearer to family!

I want 2.5lbs to get in the 16's and 5lbs to get my 3st award... WILL have both by the end of May!

It's never boring in our house. lol. I'm feeling much better, still tired but am half zombie now and am kinda used to it lol. Weigh in is at 5pm... really nervous but excited! Big news...we are moving back to the Midlands. Not sure when, need to sort out lots but VERY excited...hope the new...

Well it's weigh in tonight...not sure how I feel. I know I've had a really good week so should be on for a good loss but my body is being all over the place at the moment so who knows what WI will bring. Wish me luck!

I kinda improvised my own coke chicken recipe as saw so many different ones lol Well done on the 18's and resisting the naughtyness! Have a fab night out in Bristol... heard its meant to be nice there.

Hey hun, don't worry about the gain, I'm sure it is frustrating and here's the thing, you didn't have us to kick your but over those 2 years previously... 2012 is our year hun. We will do it together! Woohoo... I love lucky weeks!

Will be making that at some point soon me thinks, my youngest is a cheese fiend and loves pasta so it's his dream dish I think lol. Thanks hun!

Post the recipe please?

Good news Mandy, bet that's a weight off your mind! The shred is ace...imagine your punching her when you do the boxing bit...it helps lol Make sure you post your losses of here until you reach 50 posts then you can PM Roziee Your Ex is and Ex for a reason hun. Just remember all the...

I am quite excited about the move, we are going to speak to our agents to see if there is any chance of getting out the contract a bit early (won't hold my breath). Have found a nice cheap house £375 a month (currently pay £550) but can't do anything about it yet...grrr Will be trying the Lemon...

Good luck for all those weighing today! Today is not a battle against food, food is easy in comparison... its a battle to not kill my youngest who kept me up ALL night... AGAIN! Seriously feeling like crap, I don't know what to do with him arghh

I know where you are coming from completely.

Don't worry about it. I'm in the midst of having to sort out benefits, we should have been claiming ages ago but a combination a pride and hating the system has prevented us. Sometimes we need benefits...that's what they are there for, it is a shame that some people take the mick. Just make...

Good luck with the job center tomorrow.... and yes you should quit... even if its just for the sake of your bank balance, bloody expensive habit (not to mention the health risks).

Oh yes please

That looks lush Corky... nom nom...

I don't mind the shred, on the jumping jacks section I do side jack type things because I am top heavy and even more if I do it close to when Miles is due a feed. Had an atrocious night with Miles last night so Andy let me have a lie in, he is good! We are contemplating moving back to the...

Have had a good day again. Still feeling super positive which is amazing as I'm running on about 3 hours broken sleep... Am even planning some body magic for when the boys are in bed... me and the kinect/elliptical trainer have another date planned... Think it's helping me that OH is being...

Right, I have been a bit all over the place the last couple of weeks, My 3 year old has had chicken pox, eye infections, passed said eye infections to my 1 year old, I've been poorly, OH has also been under the weather and we're still waiting for my youngest to come out in the pox.... Am having...

Hey Muis, not updated in a while, so just to clarify since starting I'm a total of a shameful 3.5lbs down.

It was hilarious... Let's hope it helps! I am SO back in the game! OH reminded me it's less than 8 weeks until my Birthday, which also means I have 1 year and less then 8 weeks until the wedding and 7 weigh ins to get under 16st. Which in turns means about a year to lose about 6st...

Well done chick

Thanks girls. I know it's not the end of the world but I feel like I should have been under 17st weeks ago, Why do I always slow down when I'm so close to a target.... I'm going to get OH to do the online shop later, will give him our meal plans for the week. Am making him do the plan now as...

Hey girlies, I'm really sorry to be letting to side down but have been feeling like death warmed up since yesterday and am not up for weigh in at all. Think looking after the boys whilst they have been poorly has got me really run down. Doesn't help that I'm limited as to what I can take...

Good luck all. I'm currently waiting to call the dr's. Dexter has woken up very puffy, both eyes are infected now and one is so swollen it barely opens bless him.

Someone at a taster a while ago made a REALLY yummy cheese, onion and garlic dip...can't remember for the life of me how she made it. Was super yummy. I love tasters, we had one last week nom nom

Howdy ladies, Gosh you lot can yap! Had a OK day today, even got round to some body magic. 30 day shred AND 15 mins on the elliptical trainer... I really enjoyed it, despite harassment from my 3 year old! Speaking of the cheeky monkey, he's all scabbed over not so not contagious but has...

I haven't had a really 'great' weight loss in ages, don't get me wrong, I'm happy with any loss it's just nice to get a bigger number lol

That's ace, well done!

Hey all, sorry have been a bit AWOL. Been a bit manic with the box and now my 3 year old has an eye infection so off to the drs tomorrow! Have been really good today, even did 30 day shred and 15 mins on the elliptical trainer (youngest was napping and 3 year old was telling me that I wasn't...

Hey girls, just a quick hi from me, have been reading through post but just have the time with the boys, Dex and the pox and Miles has become SUPER clingy, he's always been a mummies boy but this feels worse then general separation anxiety, maybe he's starting to feel a bit rough... Expecting...

My new toy, twenty quid ebay. Sorry awful pic, phone is crap. Off to bed as has been a VERY long day with the poxs and clingy boys. Only got about 4 hours broken sleep and am beyond drained, not even bothering with dinner, have just had 2 hi fi bars and an apple... Night peeps!

Well done! Fab loss.

I thought it depends on the ham? I don't really eat ham myself. A few of us ladies have signed up for a 13 mile midnight walk in July. Fun fun

Hey all, Well its never dull at my place, my 3 year old has caught chicken pox Which means he can't go to pre-school until they scab over! Great. He's very dramatic at the best of times so it's all fun. Wonder how long it will be before my 1 year old gets spotty! Meal plan for today...

He's ok, feeling a bit sorry for himself but he'll be fine. Lol, yeah am trying to make sure I have at least 7 different super frees each day... Sorry, am going slightly mental!

I lost 1lb too... We're in sync lol

Back from weigh in and 1lbs down. Means I have 16.5 pounds to get under 16st for my birthday in 9 weeks. Bring it on! So on it this week, also just won an elliptical trainer on eBay which I can hopefully pick up soon!

1lbs off tonight. Now at 17st 2lbs.

Right, 1lbs off but I KNOW it would have been more but had really full boobs - Miles decided to nap longer than normal...inconsiderate monkey. Never mind, it's still a loss and I know next week I WILL get under 17st grrr Well done on the fab loss Em and enyone else, not got time to go through...

*High fives*

Me too... exciting stuff!

Well I thought I would put up today's food diary seeing at have it all planned out. Breakfast Scrambled egg (2 eggs, no milk as boys finished it off with weetabix this morning) on toast (2 slices Hovis Nimble-HexB) with 2 tsp flora light (2syns) Banana (sf 1) Lunch Jacket spud (with 2tsp...

I weigh in on a Weds chick. Your pointy boots sound scary... (see attached photo to see what I got when I googled pointy boots) How dare work take you away from minimins...have words...use the boots? As for bank holiday... possibly going to a BBQ on Saturday, not got too much on this week...

That sauce sounds scrummy! Your personal challenge sounds like a good idea. WI tonight, really hoping for a nice loss... But any loss is always good. Hope everyone has a great day and will catch up later!

My boys are just turned one and three. Lovely ages but LOTS of work. They are on the go ALL the time. My youngest was crawling by 3/4 months and walking before 9. Now he's just a cheeky bugger. My 3 year old is a nutter and is generally lovely but is full on and hates being stuck in the house...

Not as a job, hobbiest. Would do it full time if my boys weren't so full time lol. My wedding is also my 30th so will be making 2 cakes. Am probably mental lol I'm actually hoping to re-train as a midwife and keep my cakes as a hobby, I love making cakes, and know I have the ability (without...

Well done hun

What about having different veg with the steak as you are already having mushroom starter? Maybe broccoli and carrots? Or red peppers?

The wedding isn't until September lol but it's the first topsy turvy I've done and will be the second ever wedding cake and it's not a straightforward design. I'll figure it out I'm sure. I also have 'interesting' plans for my wedding cake next year but have plenty of time for that lol

:8855:

Sounds like a plan. All the kicking has to count towards body magic right?

Right ladies, I have realised today that I have 10 weigh in's (including tomorrows) until my birthday (which means 1 year until the wedding! woohoo!). Anyway, I want to be under 16st for then, Last week I weighed in at 17st 3lbs, I wanted to lose 3.5 this week but think I will be lucky if I get...

What a shame, Birmingham was really good when I went. Bet it was nice to see the competition cakes though? Not really got too much on cake wise (which is good seeing as I'm STILL waiting for my oven to get fixed - stupid agents). Am looking to try my hand at a cupcake bouquet in the next couple...

Congratulations, see you soon!

Google is the best! lol How did you enjoy cake international? Spend a small fortune?

I'm not even sure what size my boobs are at the mo, they change throughout the day lol. I am still in maternity 'sports type bras' and have said I will buy myself a couple of new bras when I get under 16 (hopefully for my birthday!) seeing as none of my pre pregnancy will fit I think I deserve...

Thanks, still a long way to go but I will get there. People seem to lose quite fast with CD I think so am sure when the pounds start coming off it will give you extra strength and motivation. Good luck!

I'm generally big all over, think the 30 day shred helped lose some inches for me lol. Don't even start on boobs, I'm so going to have a boob job when I get enough money, stop breastfeeding... and maybe wait until after I'm 100% no more kiddies!

I've lost 6/7 inches off my waist and am down at least 2 sizes after 2st 8lbs. I think everyone will lose it over different places, it all depends where you store fat I guess.

Could I have a nosy too please hun?

Think they are half a syn, I haven't tried them yet but apparently they are really yummy.

To much I want to reply to and I'm struggling to keep my eyes open, I will say this about 30 day shred... I actually quite enjoy it, in particular the parts where you do punches... I imagine I'm hitting the annoying woman! But it is a good work out, I would advise the first time you do it, don't...

congrats on the fab loss!

I didn't think she was allowed to use the crayons yet?

Me please...I don't have the hangover but I'm sleep deprived...does that count? Could not agree more! The expression 'nice place to visit but wouldn't want to live there' has never been so apt!

Mini rant warning.... When joining a challenge where you set your own target over a long period of time do people set a really low target, now I know some people loose very slowly or are near target and it's harder etc but it REALLY bugs me when people join a long term challenge where they have...

Living by the sea we get charged because the have to do extra treatment on the water or something, just about £70 a month!!!! It's RIDICULOUS!

It's probably best we don't live too close to each other... could imagine that could be dangerous lol. If I step out into my street and look down I can see the sea. Unfortunately Plymouth is more harbour than beaches but there are beaches within driving distance (I just need to learn to drive)...

I'm up for the 2 challenges, my loss since the beginning of the year is 30lbs not 29lbs so guess I forgot to PM lol

And here's me thinking you missed us lol

Are you keeping a butt cheek in each room hun? Thought you'd left us... or can't you stay away?

Hi, I'm Ellen, 28 and currently live in Plymouth, only been here since Aug/Sep, originally from the Midlands area. I'm doing Slimming world and attend a group on a Wednesday as I think the accountability helps me. How are you getting on?

Hey chick, did I pm you my loss this week? It was just 1lbs am relieved at a loss lol. Glad you had a nice time away. As for challenges, you know I'm always up for one... can't think of much at the moment as my youngest decided to be up every half hour from 2am so brain is rebelling! I like...

You're all more north than me... I'm in Plymouth! Just be super good the rest of the week and you might be OK. I'm thinking I'm going to buy a special sparkly pen for drawing lines...

Ailly 7lbs (3lbs lost - 4lbs to go) All About The Climb (7.75lbs lost- 0lbs to go) Ally89 4lbs (0lbs lost - 4lbs to go) Alyce 7lbs (0lbs lost - 7lbs to go) Alycyn1980 8lbs (6lbs lost - 2lbs to go) target not met Arctic_BNG 7lbs (0.5lbs lost - 6.5lbs to go) Berryred 8lbs (5lb lost -3lb to go)...

OMG!!! Moron.

Is it wrong I had the same thought?

lol. Not always, it's more a case of I've learnt from experience!

Just set yourself a budget, have an idea of what you NEED (what you will use in the near future) and things you may want but only if they come within your budget. My tip would be to have a look around the whole place first, you can do more then one lap of the place... it's easy to get carried...

Maybe get the drinks ready whilst you're there...

I went to Birmingham last year, spent SO much money, it's dangerous! I live in Plymouth now but used to live in Loughborough near Leicester and went to Uni at Staffs so know the Midlands quite well. Plymouth is SO far from everywhere but at least if I go to Birmingham I can stop at my dad's and...

Congrats on the loss, hopefully I'll join you in the 16s n Wednesday, if not the week after for sure!

Nice cakes. Am very jealous about cake international. I managed to win some tickets and ended up having to give them away as couldn't afford to get to London. Will make sure I go to Birmingham in November again. Have a good time!

Hey chick, sounds like we have similar stats. I'm on a mission to lose as much weight as possible for my wedding next year, am down just over 2.5st following sw, started just before Christmas. Have you had a look at the bride to be section on the site, lots of us there using our wedding as a...

I used to use the moby wrap. Well done, you'll have that 2kgs off in no time.

You have to order over 8 packs I think. I'm not mad keen on sausages but OH and boys love sausages lol Would be interested to try some though.

I was asking as there is an offer on via diet momma, can't show it on my phone but it's 2 packs free or something, will post it when I get on the computer if anyone is interested, I might share an order with a couple of the girls from group lol

I love BNS too... Nom nom. I really need to do some food shopping soon. Does anyone ever order from joes sausages?

Surprising.... I couldn't eat too many (probably for the best) but they are nice to have a nibble on. Have you had a good day?

Just tried one of the scan bran 'ferrero rocher' I made today. I'm glad the first scan bran recipe I've tried hasn't put me off. Mmmmm... yummy!

Never heard of that but sounds lie you've got the right mentality. Good luck!

Hi and welcome. How are you finding SW?

Hi, welcome and good luck!

You better! I've lost about 6 inches off my waist and about 4 off my hips... lost about 3 from my rib cage (under bust), don't measure over bust as breastfeeding makes it fluctuate so much depending on feeds...

Do it now so you know how much difference 4st makes...

Hey Emma, Welcome, there is a group challenge that some of us are doing aiming to lose 4 st by christmas, it's only recently been set up if you'd like to join http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-teams/271586-team-tinsel-4-stone-christmas.html Anyway, good luck and hope to see you around the...

The dress is a Maggie Sottero and it's 'sabelle' I think. I tried the dress on at a bridal shop when they had a 'plus size' event, I'd been using this dress as my thinspiration so was very excited when they had it, and even more excited when it suited me! To buy it from a bridal shop you'd be...

Hey chick, your post sounds similar to how mine would have done about 4 months ago. I joined slimming world when my youngest was 8 months, i didn't think I could pass it off as baby weight anymore, have always been big but it just seemed to be getting ridiculous. I also used to sling him but had...

Hi Kerry, welcome and good luck. Hope you're having a good first week. How are you finding it so far?

Hey, welcome to the site, don't get disheartened at the site yet, it is a bit of a pain to navigate but you will get used to it if you persevere. As for privileges you do need 50 post but once you start wondering round asking questions etc you will soon rack them up. I do Slimming world and its...

Hi and welcome. Which plan are you following?

Well I had a 1lbs loss which I am perfectly happy with. I am determined for a giod loss this week, want 3.5lbs or more off so I get under 17st. Will be so nice to think of myself as 16 something instead. Am even trying scan bran this week in the hope it will boost my loss lol. Wish me luck!

Have any of you tried any yummy recipes with scan bran? Decided to try some this week.

1lbs down this week. Want 3.5lbs next week. Must get under 17st, am board of the 17s now!

I want 3.5lbs to get under 17st! I want to be 16st something for a bit, bored of the 17's now lol

1lbs off so 17st 3. I am aiming to get into the 16s this week. Wish me luck!

She is getting better, it must be hard if you've not been bought up eating a wide variety, she is 27 and has only just moved out of her parents (she's wanted to move for ages but was the youngest child and her parents were a bit dependant on her I think. My back is still a bit sore but think...

Well, back from weigh in. 1lbs down. Am VERY pleased considering the couple of weeks I've had. My friend whom I went to London with had a 1lb gain and is not amused at me. I do eat a LOT more superfree then her though and she is THE fussiest eater I've EVER met. Had never tried a spag bol...

Well it's weigh in tomorrow, I will be happy if I get a STS (disappointed as haven't been weighed since the 4th) but have been all over the place but need to go to group as need to draw a big fat line for my big fat ass to step over and get on with some serious weight loss! Had planned on...

I've had my worst month since starting sw. Never mind. New month soon.

I much prefer real rock, walls serve their purpose but you can't beat the outdoors. My 3 year old wants me to take him climbing but think we'll start indoors with him. Besides, its been a while since I've been myself... Had two kids since and miss it so much but they have just finished the life...

I knew that! Where do you climb outside? I'm a fan of the Roaches myself although it's a bit far since moving to Plymouth!

That is fantastic! Love getting smaller! Had a sneaky weigh last night just to check how bad the damage is, from my last 'official' weigh in I seem to be about 2lbs up but aiming to be at either sts on weds or small loss would make me VERY happy!

It's a skill? He seemed quite interested! lol I have great boobs... they've been admired by many gay men before lol

Free is good!

The funniest thing happened on the train on the way back. There was this GORGEOUS guy sat on the table next to us (I'm talking model good looks, and he smelt yummy) well he got on at London with us and about a short while into the journey he started sniffing his clothes and I could help but...
