Looks like we are doing a similar thing, even though I'm on WW not SW. How are you finding it? I am loving the weekly meetings and appreciating the fact that fruits & veg are zero points. I thing my main issue was reassessing portion size to be honest, and now I'm being more careful about the way things are cooked etc the weight is coming off, be it slooooowlyyyy. My aim is 12lbs from now till mid Dec lol which is about a lb a week. But slow weight loss has always worked for me - I think it's helped me keep most of my weight off! Can't believe that 8 years ago I was 15st 12 1/2lbs, lost a stone on my own and then, since losing my weight after meeting you guys in 2008 I have stayed between 12 & 13 stone lol. Quite happy with that.

Blimey I aint half babbling on today... All about myself n all. Hehe xxx

Hi guys!

Phew, finally got time to sit down and (remember) to post here.

Welcome to the group Scott! I'm sure you will do great!

Work has been a giant ball ache since I went back after being Ill.

They upgraded alot of our software these last few weeks. So we all know what that means. Yet. Balls all works now. Spent most of this week trying to do difficult work with less than half my usual tools and stuff, been a nightmare. Oh, and no emails. I hate not having access to all my emails! Missing out on so much bloody gossip!

Still not found time to get back to the doctors. So think I'm just going to post it in instead and do it that way. Let him disapprove over a stamp instead.

How your all doing well! Glad you all still hang around here, I really did miss you all!!

Good to see you Tyn but glad you are up and running again, despite the annoying updates at work. I am still suffering with the fluey "cold" or "nasty bug" I came back from Wales with - its in its third week now but I am beginning to feel a bit better, just like a washed out and wrung rag.

On the plus side, I may be able to update my ticker again tomorrow - I've lost another pound (no, not from my purse ) so the trend is downward - 2lb would be nice.

Have a good day x

howdy howdy. well i stayed the same on that weigh in after three weeks and then last week i lost 4lbs. go me!! ha. but i doubt it was a 'real' weigh in if you know what i mean. i don't trust them when they're that good. still. i've been good this week so will be gutted if i haven't lost something. i've written a real essay in my diary so i'm not going to repeat it all here. but howdy and hello

good to meet you scott. teeny bit at a time and suddenly you'll be skinny. that's my current plan. teeny bit at a time, suddenly skinny. as if one morning i'll wake up and be 'hell, where'd all that go?' wouldn't that be awesome.

right. obviously suffering from exhaustion and ridiculous babble syndrome.

and i agree elle, we should all meet up again (or at all for some of us )

[Gemstone]

He's on hols at the moment but he just seems to be posting on his "lazy atkins diary" at the moment. I thought we'd lost him too. More's to the point - where's Tyn got to? x

 

[abz]

i didn't realise how long it was since he'd posted i keep popping away for so long. TYN. GET YOUR BUM BACK HERE. WE MISS YOOOOU!! he should hear that. hope he managed to get his form posted off.

Hi Ladies (And gents, if any still here)

Not gone. Just busy at work. Got two of my team going on maternity tomorrow, so been helping get them ready. Also getting all my plans in order. Almost got enough ££££ To get my driving done! So been looking for stuff with that. Most of my evenings are taken up for car porn

Hows everyone else doing? Anything super duper fun?

 

[Gemstone]

Fun! I think I've forgotten what fun is - just getting rid of this bug is enough for me x

 

[Gemstone]

It's exciting that you are able to think about getting properly mobile x

Hi guys and girlies!

Not buggered off, just been insane these last few weeks (I will find a balance one day, either nothing to do or can't sneeze without it taking up to much time!)

Work is as hectic as always, only now I.T have buggered my computer up, I only had a problem sending emails, now I have no emails at all! Should prove interesting next week I think

I do have a week off coming up though (get that, me and time off!) But its not really going to be restful. I am doing my crash course in the week and then hopefully will be driving before the end of November. Although, typical me, was getting a lift to a train station nearer to me last night by a friend in work, and WHAM. Rear ended by some ****tard drunk. So yea, that woke me up after a long day. I'm ok, friend has a sore shoulder but nothing serious. Did give me a perfect excuse to pop open a bottle of wine however!

How are you all doing? Anything dramatic happen without me?

<3
