[Lea87]

Hi.....I'm joining in whether u want me or not as I'm not a nurse lol altough I always wanted to be one if that counts haha!!

My weigh day is Tuesday at 10am so I will be sure to update this page every week and moan n rest of it. I think this is a great idea to keep us all motivated!! As I need to be at least 1.5st lighter by Xmas...I'm getting weighed for the 3rd time this morning so will update later on....wish me luck x x x

I think all is welcome nurse or not Well, we have all got one thing in common to lose weight regardless of the amount. It's all great work!

What's the plan over Christmas?

 

[sammyzip50]

What type of nursing do you do?

Hello can i join in with you all ?? I'm currently weighed on a Monday, this is my 7th Week and my official weight from yesterday was 13st 12lbs, I'm almost at the weight i was when i came back from Japan 8 years ago it was 13 10 when i went to weight watchers !! i think i got down to around 12 and a half stone so i'd like to beat that if i can.

I'm losing weight as i require IVF and we plan to start our first cycle next year.

I'm not a nurse either just a boring accountant

1st week...14lb
2nd week...4lb
3rd week...5lb
total loss.....23lb

 

[emsiem]

Don't worry Lea your not the only non nurse i'm not either !!! I do agree and i know i won't be able to eat much on Xmas day but i cannot wait to have a bit of time off it will be well deserved !! I know not everyone feels the same way but we all have our own plans

 

[Lea87]

I agree, I'm deffo not sitting at the table with a bowl of spicy tomato soup infront of me....it will be the second time eating and it will be very well deserved, I'm out for an Xmas meal with work on the 19th so that will be the first time in 10weeksish so I'm happy with that x

1st week...14lb
2nd week...4lb
3rd week...5lb
total loss.....23lb

Hello nurses and non nurses!

Thought I'd touch base as haven't been on here for a few days. Is any one not doing SS?

I couldn't really hack to be honest even after 8 days. I just felt rotten and I need to function at work or is this just a lame excuse?

What's your story?

Hi sammyzip, I am trying to stick to ss+ with just milk. A couple of days I have just wanted to eat something though. On these days I have had a bit of Tina or chicken with lettuce and a bit of Mayo, really did the trick, but think it slows my weight loss down. Got on the scales this morning though, 12st 13 1/2. It's so nice seeing the 12 at the front of the numbers. I am going to try and not eat food if possible as I know from previous experiences once I start I can't stop. Might treat myself to a chicken n lettuce salad though Saturday evening, as I am off this weekend and Saturday's are the days I feel most vulnerable. I know it is all in my mind just becUse it's a Saturday, but this is the evening I would usually treat myself to a drink and nice food. X

 

[sammyzip50]

HI

Sounds reasonable to me! If Saturday is your day and having a chicken salad keeps you in check. Why, not? Enjoy!
