Wow that pic is amazing! You don't look like the same bloke. Bet you feel fab!
Haha, sounds like you had a fun night out with the Slimming World gang. Don't worry too much about it, one bad night shouldn't make too much of an impact and we all need to let our hair down sometimes.
Crossing my fingers for that 4lbs for you. I need 3lbs for my next award too, really hope we both can do it this week. Would love a decent loss and I'm sure you would too!

JMA that pic comparison is amazing!! You have come such a long way, feeling proud? 
Awesome that you're getting exercise in too! I could never face going for a run haha... Way too unfit, but am trying to get some exercise dvds in at home!
Fingers crossed for that nice juicy 4lbs off- 8st loss is like losing a teenage girl or small woman off of you!! Amazing!

Thanks for all the lovely kind comments really great to hear been a big change in my life over last 8/9 months feeling much better and more positive and a lot more healthier
Hope you are all well its pre weigh in day for me so keep things very light will go for a run later this evening another 3 miles see how it goes looking forward it and found doing it last week where I had energy and was bored it was a good release
Hoping to lose this week I have been pretty good 4lbs needed for 8 stone little bit optimistic to expect that but certainly feel I have lost about 2lb
Nothing exciting food wise lately did have some lovely turkey steaks last night very lean with sw roast potatoes with the oxo shake granules over them with veg and mushroom beans etc
Found I am craving popcorn atm and seen tesco do small 11/13g bags and they are between 2.5/3syn so there getting purchased sharpish
Food wise today start with all bran and a green tea rest of the day I have no idea as of yet but wont be anything heavy
take care and hope you all get the results you want this week when you weigh in

You've got that 8st award in the bag next week! Hopefully the waiting will make the indian taste even better.
I've heard green tea is meant to help feeling bloated. Never tried it myself though, so don't shout as me if it tastes like piss!

Fab loss again and for it to still be coming off as you upping exercise shows how sussed you have the plan, Only thing I would say is with all the extra exercise your doing be careful of under eating we still need a fair few cals and sometime I read your food diaries and my stomach rumbles you will need more food now exercising or your losses mayl drop off a little xx
P.s you bugger your half a pound lighter than me now lmao xxx

Massive massive smiles today went shopping at nearest centre now you have to remember shopping is a new thing for me as I had to buy every item of clothing from the internet when I was at my biggest I still used to go into shops but it was a lost cause I was never going to find anything for myself at that size and even if i did go to specialist shops there were either over priced or just awful to look at
Its a huge thing for me and another sign of progress I loved trying some of the clothes on some fit some didn't but important thing was I felt comfortable in there and there was a purpose to it rather than me just walking in and admiring clothes but knowing there was nothing there for me
So.....on that note this time last year my jeans were size 56 waist yup HUGE now I am happy to say the jeans I purchased today was 42 a whole 7 sizes smaller obv still a fair bit of work today but very happy
So food wise has been Ok im going to eat more food this week to try and kick my body along a bit think I maybe eating to few calories if im honest had some lovely gammon and sw chips tonight with beans pineapple and mushrooms really nice meal especially with Gammon being fairly cheap and love it with the pineapple ,Got chilli con carne tomorrow to take to work with me so looking forward to that!!
Have a good few days and enjoy the weekend will update either tomorrow or sat!!

Wow, that must be awesome! I'm the same, haven't been on a proper shopping trip for agggesss. Must have felt great to buy those 42's! All my clothes are from internet shops like Simply Be. Wanting to lose a few more stone before I update the wardrobe a bit, but honestly can't wait for my pre-uni wardrobe update!
Good luck with upping the calories, as you know I'm doing the same this week so it'll be interesting to see how it affects our losses next week! If the worst happens and we gain we can just chalk it up to experience and carry on as normal, but I'm guessing the extra calories will really help our metabolism. Fingers crossed, eh! If I don't see a loss higher than a pound next week I'll be gutted!

Hello all hope you are all well

Looking at changing my gym new one near my offering gym at off peak times for £12.99 would save me over £20 a month
Food wise
Breakfast green tea and fruit
Dinner - Beef stew and 3 cheese light triangles mixed in
Tea - Chilli and rice
Syns - Popcorn 5.5 syns
Hot choc 4syns
