Oh and I completely forgot to mention that I bought a pair of size 12 jeans from Sainsbury's yesterday YIPPEE!! Got them on now and they're such a nice fit! I thought I would try size 12 as my 14's were being held up by my belt and were getting very loose!

Hiya Katie, they're the small ones, 40 cals per lolly and no fat making them half a point, you can get bags of about 15 for £1 from cheap shops like Poundland etc... I know you can get really big ones, but the small ones last for ages, I think the huge ones would just give you a sore tongue!! xx

Right... I'm going to sit down now and look through my mags and cookbooks and see if I can plan my meals for this week... really want to eat loads of veggies this week, I know I've not been giving my body the right foods these past 2 weeks, and I'm also going to start doing my exercise DVDs, really excited to try these as I got them at Christmas and haven't used them yet!!

Weigh in this morning and lost 1.5lbs, bit disappointed as I wanted to lose the 2.5lbs I'd gained the week before but I had a few 'off' moments this week so it wasn't like I was an angel all week he he!!
So in January I have lost 4lbs. My goal was 7lbs so I didn't achieve what I wanted really! I was 10st 10lbs in early December so I feel like I've wasted the last 2 months, but I enjoyed Christmas so I'm not too gutted he he!!
OK so my target for February (and the next 4 weigh ins) is to lose 6lbs (want to be 10st 4) if I stay on plan I should achieve this as I tend to lose between 1-2lbs a week, fingers crossed!!

well done on the loss!! you're going in the right direction so don't worry if it's not as much as you hoped for.
Do you drink plenty of water, I've started buying bottled water to encourage me to drink more and am having 3-4 bottles a day and I swear it is giving me a more rapid weight loss even with the amount of flexi syn days I'm taking!! The other thing I swear by is hot water with a slice of lemon in, it really seems to help with water retention.
Good luck for the coming week, you're doing really well with your fruit and veg intake.

Hi Josie! Thanks for the encouragement! I never drink enough, some days I have 2 hot chocs and a can of pop, I know it's bad but I forget to drink all the time, wish I forgot to eat and I'd be like a twig he he!! I will try to take in more squash this week and see if that helps, thanks for the tip!
I finally decided to take the plunge and get some new clothes as my mum said I was covering up my new figure in baggy clothes and they were my 14's, didn't even realise! But yep, went shopping and got into size 12's trousers, jeans and tops and I look a lot better in them than 14's, so thanks mum he he!!
