Hi Amy, I have to ask! What are skinny sprinkles? Catherine

Hello Ladies. After being a target member for a while everything went to pot and I have restarted!! Looking to get back to the nines but have a fair way to go through the tens first!! Well done to all so far!

2lbs off for me too. Not back in target so was sent back to pay :sigh: Onwards and downwards hopefully. Good luck to all weighing later x

Lancashire hot pot from the new magazine!

Well I am back with my tail between my legs. Have had a bad month following an injury resulting in no activity and an awful lot of comfort/convenience eating. I have to loose 4lbs this week to get back within my target or I will have to start paying again. I have never lost 4 pounds in a week so...

Thats fabulous. Well done. I tend to stick to plan through the week and have treats at the weekend if I fancy them. Good luck xx

Good luck to all Monday weighers. I weighed today and still at target so very pleased x

I went to weigh today. 1/2lb on so bang on target. Very pleased as haven't been concentrating on plan.

Good luck for weigh in the morning. Sounds like you have a really sensible approach to it. Life is for living and we all need treats/ nights out without guilt. A slow loss is more likely to stay off x

I know what you mean. I was tempted to go and see a personal shopper to help me see what would look good. When I look back at photos I cant believe what I wore. Lots of khaki, ill fitting baggy clothes!! I never realised how bad I looked but didnt really care! I lost 2 stone with sw and it...

Dont be stressed! It should be a pleasure. I have found I have far fewer clothes but have shopped wisely. Wait for sales to come up as well. More for your money x

Life has to have some pleasures and a dessert on occassion is one of them! I'm not talking sw dessert either. I didnt treat myself when I reached target first or second time as I never really deprived myself if I really fancied something. Saying that first time I did have to buy a lot of new...

I have just started week 5 of couch to 5k. I was a sprinter at school (30 odd years ago!) but never could do any distance. I am amazed that I am keeping up with it. I am doing it with my 9 year old which can be hard work but we are doing race for life July 13th and would love to run it all...

Hi Ladies. I reached target sept 2012 and let it slip so rejoined Jan this year and have been back at target since April. I try and stick to plan monday to friday and have a more relaxed approach at the weekend. It does help that when I eat to much junk I feel quite ill these days so a real...

Looks like everyone had a great week. Well done everyone. 2lbs off for me so still comfortably in target. Good luck for the week ahead x

Have only managed to shift 1/2 lb of the 2 I put on while away. I havent been focused and I have increased my exercise. Onwards and upwards! Well done to everyone. Some great losses this week

That looks lovely. Will try it in the week

I cant make it to group today so have weighed at home. 2lb gain but I am quite happy with that. Had a lovely 9 days away and ate whatever I fancied. Back on plan today. Will get kids to school then do my meal plan. Hopefully it will have gone by next week. Good luck to everyone.

Well last night I had a few glasses of fizz to celebrate the start of my holiday and the end of lent. This morning I am thinking maybe I done need to drink anymore! Not feeling the joys of spring!!

My challenge ends on Maunday Thursday which is when lent ends in the Christian church. However in the Catholic faith it ends on Easter Sunday. I go away on thursday so this year I am a christian ;)

Well done. That's great.

off to weigh in today after my first week of trying to maintain! Will see what happens. Good luck everyone x

I remain alcohol free and have finally got back to target so feeling happy today. Need to be super good in preparation for the end of lent and a week away x

Well done Caroline. I found the last few pounds so difficult! I hope its easier for you x

Well done. Thats fabulous. Not far to go. I have finally got back to target today. Now to maintain!!!

That looks amazing!

Still going here. I was a little tempted on Sunday. We have some small bottles of fizz and it was such a lovely day but fortunately I had cleared them out of the fridge at the start of lent and they were warm! It does seem long but it really hasnt been difficult. I was just hoping for greater...

Have weighed at home today as cant make it to group. STS. Fine by me!!

Still alcohol free here and have to say I have actually stopped thinking about alcohol now. 1.5lbs off today leaving 1 more pound to loose by easter. Hopefully I will achieve it.

1.5 off for me. Very pleased as havent been well and super free hasnt been featuring the last few days! 1lb to go to target!!

Well done everyone. Good luck to those weighing later. A lovely 2.5lb off. Delighted 2.5lb to target x

Still no alcohol!! A lovely 2.5lb loss this week which I am delighted with. Had friends over for a meal on Saturday and a day down in London Sunday and because I was alcohol free had no drink induced munchies.

Well done everyone. I am still alcohol free :) it has actually been quite easy so far. Sunday will be difficult as going down to London to see my sister. A day with her usually involves gin and prosecco so will seem very wrong! I have thrown away a quarter of a savoy cabbage, half a bag of...

Another STS here. Pretty fed up because I was so good all week :mad:

Doing well so far. No alcohol has passed my lips. I used up some leftover roast veg making a frittata. Just to clarify, for me this challenge runs for 40 days/nights. I am off on holiday on April 17th and will be drinking then ;)

Hi Ladies, Have only just found this thread. I am with Theria. 1. No alcohol until 17th April. 2. Not wasting any food. 3. Be at target by 17th April!! I dont drink large quantities of alcohol but drink frequently and one glass of wine leads to snacking so I am hoping that 1 will help 3...

Roast chicken and pesto roasted veg

Well done. Thats a great loss x

1/2lb off. Not terribly impressed. Cant believe how hard this is this time!

1lb on for me. Just pleased it wasnt more!. Unfortunately its my birthday on Saturday so need to be 100% on plan for the rest of the week if I want to get a loss next week.

Well done to everyone this week. Great losses again. I didnt weigh this week as have been away and now I really dont want to weigh on monday :mad: I was totally off plan whilst away. Really ashamed of myself really as was eating for eatings sake! Only myself to blame but back to it now for a...

Good morning ladies. Can I join you? I am a nurse. I work 2 nights a week on a short stay surgical ward (long stay medical outlyer ward!!!!) I reached target with slimming world in September 12 but a stone crept back on so I restarted in January. It seems a lot more difficult this time and...

Hello Monday weighers! I have rejoined a new group this morning. I have gained 13lbs since I hit target in September 2012. Not very proud of that but today is a new start and hopefully I will be back to target in a few months. I am actually really looking forward to it, Good luck everyone,

Hi, Time to get back to it. I reached target in November 2012 and was pretty good at maintaining for 6 months. A few pounds started creeping on but over the last few weeks I have just gone totally off the rails and I am actually far to scared to get on the scales. I have found a class to...

Hello! I am rejoining a class tomorrow after falling seriously off the wagon. I reached target at the end of 2012 and maintained quite well for 6 months but it has now gone horribly wrong. I will update my stats tomorrow when I have been officially weighed! Good luck for weigh in tomorrow...

Thanks ladies. I lost 2lbs so thankfully back in target and no walk of shame for me! Everyone is really supportive anyway so it would have been fine. I really need to keep going to group to keep me on the straight and narrow.

2lb off this week so back within target thankfully. Good luck to those who are still to weigh.

Hi Ladies, I came out of target last week after a lovely Easter. I haven't been as good as I should have been so actually quite scared about weighing tomorrow. I really don't want to be sent back to pay! Ooh the stress. I was tempted not to go but I will as I am afraid I might hit the slippery...

I am not looking forward to tomorrow. I was determined to be 100% to get back to target range but I failed!! Weigh in at 0930 so not long to wait!

Well I gained 4lbs this week! Haven't been to class for 5 weeks and have been away, plus my husband fancies himself as the new Paul Hollywood!! Back on track today as I am out of target and will have to start paying!!

Lost 1/2lb this week. Still just within target. Good luck everyone

Well done to the looses so far and good luck to those weighing later! I lost 1 and a half this week. Rather surprised!

Hello, I reached target 3 weeks ago and I am finding it hard! The first week I just went mad and ate whatever I fancied. A sneaky weigh at home demonstrated that I shouldn't really do that! The 2nd week I was 100% to plan, no extra HEB and this last week I have been 100% mon-fri with a few...

Good luck everyone. I have managed to maintain my target which Im pleased about. Its actually quite hard!

Good luck for today!

That will be really difficult. I love samosa and the slimming world version just arent quite the same! Throw a sicky ;)

Morning all. Not sure Im very good at this maintaining lark. I heard the world target and saw it as permission to eat what I liked! I really, really enjoyed everything that passed my lips but now I need to get back to it. I didnt weigh last week due to shift patterns but will be there to face...

3lbs off today getting me to target! Celebrated with a cappuchino with chocolate sprinkles and brown sugar! Feeling very proud today! Congratulations to those with losses and good luck for those not weighed yet.

Good luck with your journey. Makes sense to go to a group where you can be consistent. I usually weigh in the morning but on the odd occasion I have weighed at night it has always been depressing!! Havent weighed for 2 weeks due to work so fingers crossed for good news tomorrow!

Just popped by to say Im loving the new avatar. You look great. Its amazing that you are nearly at 6 stone loss! Nex week maybe? Weigh in for me tomorrow. It would be lovely if it could be the last one I pay for but will have to wait and see ;)

2lbs on. 3lbs to target now. I will get there by the end of September!

first weigh in after my 2 weeks holiday off plan. Very scared. I feel enormous today. Good luck everyone

Good morning. How are you all? Well done on your loss this week. Got back from holiday late last night. Had a fantastic time. Ate what I wanted and according to my unofficial scales this morning put on 1 1/2lbs which I can happily live with. Not getting back to plan until monday as we have...

Oh my goodness!! Thats amazing. Thrilled for you. I cant imagine loosing so much in a week. Have you got much more to go?

Sorry Gavin. I have been absent without leave!! Didn't realise I was so behind. Its the nice weather. We sit outside in the evening and I don't go on-line! Friday honk 100%* 7syns Saturday went a bit wrong in the evening with a chinese and a bottle of wine! I am taking a guess at 22 syns...

Welcome Laura. Come and join us. Good luck with your journey. Honk for today 100%* will be 15 syns when I have had a glass of wine to celebrate my 1 1/2lb loss ;) 1 lb to go and no weighs in until after my holiday! Target by the middle of September I think!

Well done everyone. Another good week. 1 and a half for me which I am pleased with

Honk for yesterday 100%* 10 syns (21/105) Hope your back feels better soon. After a pretty rubbish night shift my legs feel like they have run a marathon! Weigh in to. Feeling rather pessimistic!

Honk for today. 100%* 11 syns. 12/31 days

Hi Gavin, I think we should just carry on here. I just need to come on every day and write my syns which means I have to write it down and not 'forget' what syns I used! I think I have been on track 11 of the potential 13 days so far so will go from there!!

Morning! How are everyone's weeks going? I have had a couple of bad days. A lovely picnic on Friday and a BBQ with friends on Sunday. Its official. I have no self control and when desserts are looking at me I cant refuse! Its my last weigh in before holiday on Thursday and I had hoped for a...

Draw a line and start again. The 4lb will quickly come off with a lot more. As long as you had a great time, no regrets just back to it. I might have the same result this week. Had a lovely bbq with friends on Sunday. Was very good with the meat and salads but couldn't resist puddings and...

2.5lb to go Gavin unless I lower it again! Off to conkers for the day today with friends and a naughty picnic and friends over for BBQ Sunday and I have very little self control!

Sounds like a good plan Gavin. 2lbs off today which I am very chuffed with.

Well done everyone. Some excellent losses this week. 2lbs off this week which I am more than happy with!

Faith, Hope everything is ok with you. Take care and see you September when I have undone all my hard work whilst in France!! Lisa, Where are you hiding? Gav, I am happy to carry on but my last post for the month will be the 21st as I am then away for the rest of the month. If you would...

100%* day 7. 12 syns 77/105. Weigh tomorrow but have to do an evening weigh again as working tonight and they dont like me!

Good morning. Well done Gav. Fingers crossed for next week! Honk day 6 100%* 9syns total 65/105 Have a good day

Morning Faith, Dont worry, you could still loose and you haven't gone over your syns. I lost 3lbs after what I thought was a shocking weekend where I didn't count syns! You still have a couple of days. Honk for yesterday, day 5 100%* 12 syns so 56/105. I bought a low alcohol sparkling pinot...

Working tonight so an early honk from me 100%* and 6 syns

Im very impressed! I wish I was more capable on the computer. I have completed it for my weight loss journey. The only thing was it gave me my club 10 at half pound heavier than when slimming world gave me mine but apart from that its brilliant

Glad your staying. Its only 1 day out of 31. Hope you enjoyed it. Not had a battered sausage for years! Jealous of the chocolate cake Faith. I had a teeny slice of cheesecake today and its was delicious. Friday 100%* but 19 syns ( had friends over today and had some treats!) 38/105

My clothes are going in the loft! Have always suffered from pessimism! Faith, I hope you enjoyed your curry. Well 1/2lb gain this week. To be expected and not stressed by it. Another week begins! Thursday 100%* 9syns 19/105 Have a good day x

1/2lb on!! Never mind I had a lovely break up North!

10/12 depending on where its from. I need to start scouring ebay for some bargains as my wardrobe is a little bare!

Well done to everyone so far. I am weighing tonight instead of this morning and after 3 days off plan at the weekend I am not expecting great things!

A little late as usual! Day 1 (Wednesdsay) 100% * Syns 10 so 10/105. I will weigh tonight which is wrong for me, usually a morning weigher so with that and 3 days off plan at the weekend I am scared!!

Hi Faith, Start weight 9 st 12 end weight 9 st 7 5lbs lost!

Morning! 100% for yesterday with 12 syns used! So for July 28/31 days 100%. See you in August x

Hi Faith, I have come to join you! Last weigh in I was 9 7 and I would like to loose 4lbs to get to my target! I am away in France 22nd to the 30th and due to my inability to say no to croissants and French bread I may have to aim to loose it before we go!

Faith, finally I have had to buy new clothes. Everything went from fitting ok to falling off in the space of 4lbs! I am now a 10/12 depending on where I buy from. All my sister in laws were so impressed they are joining slimming world tonight! Starting weight originally was 11 4. If you meant...

I'm back!! Gavin you are a star. You have such determination and drive. I cant believe you missed out on slimmer of the month! Faith, I hope you had a great time in the Lakes. Where abouts were you? Keswick is one of my favourite places. I have lowered my target slightly as I feel a little...

2lbs off this week. Really pleased. Got my 1 1/2 stone shiny too. Reached my original target but have decided to go a few lower!

Final weigh day for July. Down 2lbs so 9st 7!

Morning! Faith well done on slimmer of the month. Another certificate to add to the collection. Its my last weigh in this morning so I will let you know! Gavin, you don't look like the same person. Its an amazing difference. You must be thrilled. 100% yesterday. My 7 year old made a victoria...

Dont keep us in suspense! Post the pic!!!

Good morning Thursday weighers! I have been pretty well behaved this week so I am hoping for a loss even if it is a 1/2lb for the 3rd week running! That will give me my 1 1/2 stone award finally! I am off to the outlaws Thursday through to Monday night and I know it will all go to pot...

Good morning. Another sunny one. Good luck for today Faith. I hope you get the loss you want. Well done on being strong yesterday. Sometimes its so difficult. 100% for yesterday with 12 syns. We had a BBQ last night which was lovely and apart from a 4 syn sausage it was all very healthy!

Hello, I have been awol due to having to work!! Its a shame we have to do it! Very hard going to bed in the day when the sun is shining. 100% Sunday with 14 syns so 14/105 100% Monday with 7 syns so 21/105 Congrats on your loss Gavin. You are doing so well. Stop with the exercise, you make me...

Good morning. Another lovely day yesterday. We had supper outside for the first time this year. 14 syns used 84/105 day 7 100% Faith, did you mum comment on your loss? I popped into our loft to get the garden cushions and it was sauna like up there! Thursday I am heading up North for 5 days...

I agree with Becci, A few years ago I went to a group that sounds like yours. I wasn't impressed. I didn't like paying to be humiliated which is what it felt like! I now go to a new group which is brilliant. She gives out certificates and says the total loss and gain of the group. Then she...

Good evening. have had a lovely day today. Went for a swim with the kids and then to harvester. Its great that you can eat out without worrying. 10 syns today so 70/105 I think!

Good morning. Another damp, miserable looking day here. The children broke up yesterday so let the fun begin!!! I didnt have the g and t yesterday but had hot chocolate instead so another 2 syns 60/105. Thanks both for your support. I had expected things to slow down but when you are nearly...

Congratulations Faith. I bet your mum will be really impressed. Mine not so much so!! 1/2 lb loss again this morning. Not impressed with that! Today I have used 5 syns so far. Toying with the idea of a cheeky g and t to drown my sorrows. Will update if I do!! 58/105.

Well done everyone for completing another week! 1/2 a pound of again this week! Couldn't go any slower!!!

I am feeling ridiculously nervous for weigh in this morning. I have been 100% for 2 weeks now and I know I shouldn't go on my own scales but they don't seem to be shifting! Its very frustrating. I need to set my goal this week and I don't know what I want to be. How did you all decide?

Good evening. Well I went to M and S cafe with my friend. I had a bacon roll. It wasn't huge, the bacon was lean. 22 bl***y syns the book says!! Not impressed. Anyway I have been 100% since with no further syns. so 22 today 53/105. Its weigh day tomorrow and I'm scared as usual. 1 lb would be...

Good morning. Hope you are both ok. I have everything crossed for your stone award Faith. Well done on the gym Gav. Hope you able to move this morning! Day off for me today and meeting with my best friend for breakfast. She lost her dad 2 weeks ago so its all very sad. I have decided I...

Good evening. Today has been 100% with 8 syns. 87.5/105. I have had a lovely day. Was so good to see the sun! We walked across the very muddy fields to my mums for coffee,and I have spent quite a lot of the day in my favourite place. The kitchen! I made a potato, leek and spinach frittata for...

We had potato, leek and spinach frittata without cheese because I forgot but it was very tasty!

We have had slimming world scotch eggs, chips and salad. It was delicious. I haven't made scotch eggs since cookery lessons at school when it was ok to deep fry things ;)

Thanks Faith. I am close to my original target but may go lower. You are a real night owl. If Im not working 10pm seems late to still be up! All looks good. I appear to be the naughty synner!! Have a good day everyone. I am making slimming world scotch eggs today on the childrens request...

The cost is worth it as you can't put a price on being healthy..... That is very true. Your work place sounds great. Mine (the good old NHS) arent so good! At least I have plenty of room in my pockets! Today I will say 100% with 15 syns as too lazy to calculate exactly. I made blackcurrant jam...

It must be getting expensive for your Gav! Next sale was rubbish so think I will pop out today as good old M and S has a sale! I lost a tiny 1/2 lb yesterday. Still going in the right direction. Thursday was 100% with 14 syns 63.5/105. Finally Friday. Not working until Sunday night so looking...

1/2 lb off this week. Better than nothing I guess! Well done to those already weighed and good luck to those that haven't

Well done Faith. Sorry to confuse you. That was Tuesday. Wednesday was 100% 10 syns used. Total 49.5/105. Thursday remains to be seen. Weighing in today! The next sale starts online at 7am so I am at the ready! My hubby has lost 2 stone and needs new trousers as he is starting to look like a...

Sorry to hear that Andrea. Anything we could help with? Not ready for weigh day. need a few more days! Have had an upset tummy and am really bloated. Have the pot bellied look.Might just stick a pin in it!

A bit late for yesterday! Had a hard day yesterday with a sickly child and a grumpy tum! I found it hard to get my super free in as all I wanted was carbs! I think I succeeded. 100% with 15 syns used. All bar 3 were used on sweets! Was using them for medicine bribes with Imogen and kept eating...

Thanks Faith. Well done Gavin, thats fabulous. I have never been slimmer of the week and probably wont ever be :cry: My turn to be unwell today. Have a dodgy tummy. Probably all the syns yesterday. My daughter was sent home with a strep throat and rash so its a bit of a sick bay here...

Good morning ladies, I had a very enjoyable day yesterday ;) I have three days to pull it back though. I do think that having an occasional day off plan makes me refocus and get back to it. Almost a necessity really. Is anyone convinced?

Hi Faith, Confused now as Sunday was start week 1 so syns should restart from Sunday again?

Well the family left. I cleared up and decided to add my syns! I only used 22! It sounded bad but wasn't as bad as I thought so I think I can stop feeling guilty as I know I have 6 days to even it all out! Gavin, whats happening in 5 weeks? Something exciting?

A little behind! Honk for yesterday with 15 syns 82/105 for the week. Today I am writing off as I have had family round, had fizz, wine, blinis, chocolate and pudding so too many syns to count! Back to it tomorrow! Good luck for tomorrow Gavin, Hope you feel 100% soon Faith,

Well!!! I went out for lunch today with a great friend. I opted for a roasted sweet potato salad. All good then my friend wanted desert. I didn't but then deserts were 2 for 1 and a chocolate orange cheesecake ended up in front of me!! It was fairly small but will go for 20 syns for today...

After a really horrible 24 hours I am amazed that I can honk with 11 syns 47/105 and I lost 2 lbs! Have resisted take away and booze! Faith- congrats on 4lb loss. Thats great! Gavin- how was the gym?

Well I opted for the morning weigh and lost 2 lbs. Very pleased with that.

Good luck to everyone for tomorrow. I am working tonight so undecided whether to go to my usual morning weigh or go to an evening one! Might have a sneaky weigh at home in the morning then decide!!!

Hope the weigh in was a positive experience Faith! Another early honk as off to work. 8.5 syns 36/105 Weigh in tomorrow. Cant decide whether to go to my usual morning weigh in where I have gained when I have weighed after a night shift before or whether to go to an evening class!! will decide...

An early honk for me as off to work tonight. 9 syns 27.5/105

Congratulations on your loss. Honk for today 18.5/105 syns (6.5 for today) Proud of myself today. Have felt cold and miserable all day and would normally reach for the rubbish but have shown great self control!!

Good evening. Weight is 9st 12. Honk for today. Syns 12/105. Can I just clarify re weekly syns. If I am under syns one day but go over the next day but have remained within weekly syns would the week be classed as 100%? Could I still honk that day or not? Thanks

Hi, After yesterday I was just sitting here thinking about the saying little pickers wear big knickers and that I need to start a diary and syn counting again when I stumbled across this thread! My June loss was unimpressive so can I join? Contestants for 100% July! 1st Week - 01/07/12 -...

Well done to everyone. We have been a right bunch of losers this week!!!

Well my June loss is 3lbs! Not my target but I have had a lovely month of not feeling at all deprived so all good I say!

3 1/2 off!! Very pleased to get under 10 stone AND get my club 10. Now need to think about my target!!

Congrats on your loss Arctic. I hope it gives you the kick start to carry on. I had a rude gain last week but I weighed after a night shift which I guess is like weighing at the end of the day not the start so have everything crossed to have lost this week despite a weekend off plan! I was half...

You look fabulous. Well done x

Well I was right. I gained 1 1/2lbs. Worse than I thought. feeling really frustrated because I was so close to my club 10!! No point in dwelling I guess just need to get back to it. Have a 50th party at the weekend so am planning on driving so I don't get carried away with drinking and buffet...

I managed to gain 1 1/2lbs this week so my 4lb goal for June is now 4 1/2lbs!!!

Boo hiss I gained 1 1/2 lb! Have been pretty good but worked last night so will blame it on that and the fact that my children have been making me cycle them to and from school!

Just popped on to wish everyone luck for tomorrow. Not feeling very optimistic as weighing in in the morning after a night shift and last time I did that was my only gain! Will have to wait and see!

Tuesday involved my husband slipping in the shower, putting his elbow through the bath and getting whiplash. It then involved a chocolate muffin with cream and a glass of wine so a bit of a right off. Weigh in tomorrow but working tonight and the only other time I weighed in after a night shift...

Monday! B: Boiled egg, bread (hexb) flora (1) L Mugshot and fruit with yoghurt. D: L/O lamb dansack with rice and lots salad. S: Walkers stars (41/2), milky way(6) !! Motivation is not apparent at the moment!! I always find this happens when I get to this weight but I would like to go lower.

Well I weighed first thing and was 10st 1/2lb. Weighed just before leaving for class 10st 2!!! Weigh in at class 10st! Was so upset prior to leaving for class the moral being throw the b****y scales away!!

1lb off for me which I am pleased about as post holiday. 1/2lb to club 10. 7lbs to target (or may go a little lower) Bought a 12 week count down this week as feeling pessimistic about ever reaching target!! Havent got below 10 stone since having the children despite trying so will see what...

I cant make it to my group today. Too much to do before holidays so have weighed at home. 1/2 lb off so total loss for May 7 1/2lb. Well done everyone. See you in the June challenge.

Its a 'dont know' week again for me. Haven't over syned but don't feel like I have lost. I dont believe my own scales anymore as they can alter by a pound or two just by stepping off and back on so will just have to wait and see. 2lb would get me club 10 but think that is unlikely!! Good luck...

I am rubbish at updating when I am working nights. Need to be extra good today and tomorrow as I go away with friends then for 8 days and I am planning on relaxing and enjoying. Havent been fancying any 'naughty' stuff lately so am hoping that will continue while I am away! Tuesday: Wholemeal...

Surprisingly lost 2lb this week so have got my 1 stone sticker! So proud. Just wish I could see the difference! I was hoping to need to buy a new smaller wardrobe for my holiday next week but its not necessary!

Congratulations to all for losses and commiserations to those that didn't have great weeks. I am amazed at my 2lb loss this week. Teach me to go on my own scales which aren't as kind! So this week I have achieved my stone award and reached my May target. Just have to keep it off for another week!!

Hi Ladies, I have no idea how things will go this Thursday. I think I have been pretty good apart from Friday night when I was driven to wine by the children!! I haven't had a lot of enthusiasm this week. Usually I am a bit of a planner but ended up eating the same meal 3 times as I couldn't...

Well the weekend passed in a blur from night shifts. Stuck to plan though eating at strange times. 4am: ham and cheese salad (1/2 hexa) with coleslaw (2), banana, muller stuffed with blueberries. 9am: toast (hexb) flora (1) and marmite, hot choc (1/2 hexa and 2) 4pm: coffee and velvet crunch...
