Sounds like a bargain :) at least you know your being weighed properly though, good luck Saturday morning

I really want to try this one now, just done day 7 (level 2) of the shred, didn't want to get up this morning to do it, but so glad I did

Congrats :) wish I could loose 4lbs in one week. What's your secret

Have a great weekend!!!

Got my scan this afternoon, really hope it shows up whatever's wrong with me, otherwise I don't know what the next step would be if it all comes back clear :( and I really want to get rid of these pains

Yes, good luck with it and you get answers.
How do you find level two? Keep meaning to start it..do you notice difference in inches etc?

I really don't have a magic formula! I do walk around 6 miles daily. For me, walking is the key (fast paced - around 4.5 to 5 miles an hour) and I do red days. I still have syns, mostly wine on non work days!
Happy Friday everyone. Leaving to travel to Devon at 10am. Will catch you all next week. X

You have did amazing....how many syns is wine exactly? I seem to get conflicting numbers x
 
Found my positive number 3........................................OH just got £500 back from council tax people woooop. Means we can put a deposit down on our wedding venue :-D[/QUOTE said:
Thats a nice surprise!

Thank you all ladies for all your lovely comments. DH feels very positive about it all, but he would as he's very much an optomist & can always see the good in things! He's just so happy Im not having surgery again.
Had my WI today as am away tonight & cant WI tomorrow & I lost 2lb! Happy with that, as Im such a slow loser, but I will go back to mixing my weeks with Red/Green/EE as I missed my meat!
Hope you all have a good day x

It's lovely that your OH is optimistic everyone needs someone with positive vibes around them. Well done on the loss and happy birthday for yesterday. I didn't get on here yesterday as I was working afternoons

Don't you just love it when you go to nurse for your pill, stand on scales and she says "oh you have put on weight....10lbs". Oh my god......she said it was different scales tho. Ugh damage done but more determined than ever now x
just stick with what your doing. Like you said they are different scales.

The skin doc i saw after my hot water bottle exploded all over my leg basically said bio oil was a waste of money and if i wanted to throw my money away i should go and buy an expensive handbag! He said any unperfumed moisturiser worked just as well. I had stopped using it anyway as i actually found it was drying my scar out. I just kept firing e45 on it and can barely see anything now

My nan has the most beautiful skin and she uses e45 for everything.

Happy birthday Kim, sounds like great night. Have fun
Makin me feel left out by not weighing in tom. Should I or not? Decision. Know I have only been on plan for three days but......argh Friday does seem best option for weigh in. Thoughts guys?

I WI on a Tuesday, we could keep each other going?

Lol I will let you know!

Had enough of my stupid scales. They showed me at 4 stone today! They are going back tomorrow lol. Been to asda n got some Salter ones. They were showing.on shelf at £25 but scanned at a tenner! Bonus. Set then up n they show me at 10 4 :-( but that is the night time weigh in I will leave them alone till Saturday morning! They show bodyfat and everything too x

It's lovely to have a low number but 4st is slightly too low I think lol
 
It's lovely to have a low number but 4st is slightly too low I think lol

I think so too, it gives me a BMI of 9.9 lol.

Trying to think of some positives for today.
1. Its Friday and this weekend is a long weekend which I AM going out on lol.
2. I got up at 6 and did workout 2 :)
3. Struggling for a number 3 again!
 
Thank you for all my birthday wishes ladies. Feeling a bit tender this morning after a few to many Prosecco's! The curry we had last night was probably the best we've ever had, a really lovely Restaurant & to top it off DH had told them it was my Birthday & asked them to bring out a little something....chad as you like lol!....so they played happy birthday over the music system & brought a choccie icecream with a candle in it & also a Baileys on the house!Luckily it was very quiet, so I didn't feel too much like a muppet! x

Ah lovely. My DH did that to me in a packed frankie&bennies! they walked through the kitchen doors, turned the lights off and played happy birthday. We couldn't have sat further away from the kitchen so the whole place was staring at me by the time it actually arrived at the table. so embarrassed lol. Glad you had a lovely time x
 
Good luck for your scan, hope they find whatever it is. A few years ago I had a crash a few years ago n hurry shoulder. The doc referred me n the specialist said I was hysterical n making it up. A couple of years later I ended up having an op on it. So much for been hysterical!

I feel like they think I'm making it up, which is really annoying as I've been putting off going to the docs for a while and its only since the pains got really bad that I went. But they've tested me for lots of silly things which it wouldn't be.

Good luck for your scan.

That's fantastic. I always use my syns as well, as I'm quite active, I'm more of a chocolate girl then wine though. People really don't understand how me and my boyfriend both don't drink at least on the weekend, but we'd both much rather have cake or chocolate then alcohol. I do drink on the rare occasion mind.
Yes, good luck with it and you get answers.
How do you find level two? Keep meaning to start it..do you notice difference in inches etc?

I'm finding level two okay, its getting easier, a lot of it is in plank position though which I do struggle with. I didn't measure myself which I'm kicking myself now as I do feel slightly bigger at times, but I know that must be in my head. I'm quite lucky in that I only really need to tone my tummy, everywhere else is okay, but saying that although I was happy with my legs before I can see a difference in them and my boyfriend was saying yesterday how they were looking very nice

I just wish it would show :-( though I would rather be thin/toned n heavy than flabby n light lol x

Completely agree, I was gutted when I put on a lb at WI on Tuesday but I'd much rather weigh a bit more then the scales show I'm really light but I don't look so nice. People don't see you as a number on the scales :)

I think so too, it gives me a BMI of 9.9 lol.

Trying to think of some positives for today.
1. Its Friday and this weekend is a long weekend which I AM going out on lol.
2. I got up at 6 and did workout 2 :)
3. Struggling for a number 3 again!

I'm sure you'll think of a third soon

my positives

1. I'm feeling great again after doing the shred this morning
2. Long weekend :) hopefully we'll be doing something nice with it
3. It's not rained on me.....yet

Haha bless you, there's a place here where they bring out wigs and taborines when its someone's Birthday...funnily enough I've never had my Birthday there :p
 
Hope the scan goes well Donna and glad you had a nice birthday Kim!

WI in this morning and lost 2lb :) though gained one last week do really only lost 1lb on ww for 2weeks and that was with no cheating at all!

At another house for the next 8 days so have decided to go back to slimming world for that time as it makes it easier as I know all the tinned/packaged goods that I can have and that makes it much simpler while not at own home. Will see how the week back on sw goes as not sure which I prefer and did want to give ww a longer try than that. X
 
Yeah, well done on the 2lb loss Laura & hope you enjoy your week doggie sitting....lots of walkies! x

Thanks and well done, at least its still a loss. Good luck this week as well hope you have a good one.

Sat at the moment practicing holding onto a pint and a half of water for over an hour....not too bad but every so often I realise I really need a wee. My sisters picking me up at 1 to take me to hers for a drink, think I'm going to just have to have water otherwise a hot drink will really make me need a wee, then my appointment is at 2.20... hoping my sister hasn't got loads of treats in to have with cuppa's as well :/ I'm hoping for nothing but don't mind if there's something for about 6 syns
 
Ladies after my binge last week I was planning on a good week. Have been on plan with minimum syns since Tuesday. I can have wine within my syns but unsure whether to or not. Not entirely sure why not but thinkin it maybe stops me losing weight. Why when am on track do I think too much about everything?
 
Hiya ladies :) hope your all ok?

Happy birthday for yesterday Kim.

Ok so I'm coming back and getting back on plan on Sunday! Operation holiday begins, 4 weeks totally on plan! Im fed up of faffing around and ending up the same weight over and over again!

Aim is 8lb off by France. I'll update my WI on Sunday as I think a Sunday is better for me as it stops me pigging out on a Saturday night!

Happy Friday ladies!!! Hope you're all having a good one. I am cream crackered so will be glad when it's home time.

Donna - good luck for your scan
Laura - whoop 2lbs off is fab. Well done u.
Vicky - well done on the DVD - you're v dedicated :)
Kim - your birthday sounds fab! Really glad u enjoyed yourself


So I weighed in this morning from home (I'm having a break from group) and I weighed in at exactly 10 stone. I'm happy with that after a week of eating/drinking in restaurants and having bigger portions. My scales had jumped to 10.1 before I went so in theory I've lost weight :)

Five weeks til hols and I want to lose 8 lbs.... I will definitely be relying on you lot for a kick up the bum now and again :) xx

Hope all goes well for our scan Donna. Do you have to wait long for your results or get them straight away? x

I think we all over think things too much & this slimming malarky does become a bit of an obsession for us all. You can have your wine within syns, but its whether you're controlled enough to just have the one or two glasses......I know Im not so unless there is a special occasion now Im avoiding the devil juice. But never deprive yourself & if you want a drink have one, but if you think it stops you losing, maybe avoid it for a few weeks & see if you lose x

Hiya ladies :) hope your all ok?

Thanks Nikki. Im sure if you start being strict with yourself, I'm sure you will be able to lose those naughty 8lbs! Are you going to do WW or SW? x
