Challenge - International Talk Like a Pirate Day 19th Sep!

Hi Vickie, got 2 t-shirts and 2 cardigan/tops from DP and a skirt. Got a pair of casual shoes and some work ones (have dropped a size in shoes, so needed them). Did got to Next and got 2 dresses and a top. The dresses are too tight, but will have to get into them.

Might not be around as much this week in case I'm quiet. Been suffering on and off from depression/anxiety for years and it has come to a bit of a head after moving up to 1000. The scales weren't moving and felt so unhappy yesterday after being 100% that I slipped up completely. Have decided to go back to SS. Am to far from goal (about 2 stones) to be moving up so quickly and part of my wishes me CDC had encouraged me to keep going. Am also about to call the doctor to make an emergency appointment this morning to go back on meds. So I expect I'll be knackered for the first 2 weeks and sleeping lots, so maybe not on here much.
Sorry for long post! Hope everyone has a good week.
 
Oh and Vickie don't worry about your WI, even if you've gone a bit over, as it will catch up. Still hardly any cals. You'll be fine x
 
Just back from weigh in and lost 2.5lbs - really pleased with that - my weigh in's on 1000-1200 so far are going ok, which is good, and spur's me on, just hope long may that continue!

Really well done on everyone's losses :) x

Hi, I am back from holiday and ready to start the challenge. I have put 2 1/4lb on in 28 days so I am ok with that. I have therefore changed my goal to reflect my gain. I need to lose 17lb now. So, I have started on day 1 again and working my way to those 17lb and goal.

Thanks Vickie :) dr was very helpful and feel much more positive now that I'm back on tablets.

3lb loss is great! You and I have been doing the same sort of amount, but I have a feeling I won't be doing 3lbs - well done you. x
 
I think it was just all the water I drank :D
Hope the tablets work soon for you lovely X
 
Thanks Vickie. Am taking a leaf out of your book and glugging away. Got bloodtest in the morning which I am not looking forward to, but then picking up my tetras in the afternoon - every cloud! :)

Wondering where faith is? She was so helpful last time I posted about depression, but haven't seen her on this thread for a little while.
 
1lb down this week.
Not great, but that's 1000. Back on SS+ now, so hopefully better less next week.
Hope everyone's having a good week!

Just had my 5th WI. 3.5lb down :) Not too bad considering its TOTM.

But this weekend is going to be a tough one. We're down to London village for a friends wedding. Luckily we're just going to the evening do, so I'm planning on SS all weekend. I know I can resist the alcohol, I'm not that big a drinker, but the food might be another thing.
keep your fingers crossed for me please.
 
Just come back from a WI and lost 5lbs! Very impressed considering there was a slight blip on Monday.

Off on holiday next week, hoping not to gain too much, although I do plan to enjoy myself, obviously.

Well done to everyone else on their losses!

3 more pounds:eek:
 
Weeeeeeeeeeeee! I survived London and all the temptations that surrounded me!:D

Drank nothing but water, and had my shakes, tetras and bars. But why did no one warn me that the strawberry tetra is putrid.:sign0137: I had to finish it, cause it was the only thing I had with me. But I almost lost my cookies in the middle of Spitalfields Market.

It was kinda funny watching my friends getting very, very drunk while I stayed sober. But it's not something I'll be making a habit of too often.;) But I do have some very funny video of drunk dancing that will be finding it's self on Youtube before long.
 
Lol witchypoo I've spent most of the day uploading pics and video's of last nights drunken debauchery to facebook, my friends love me LMAO. (But I had the day off and joined them ;))
 
:D FF, there is just something wrong with middleaged, well dressed people pogoing to the Sex Pistols!:8855:
 
Sounds like everybody has been having fun with parties and holidays and doing well.

I have had a strange few weeks, my CDCs scales were broken so weighed in on mine then her new scales seemed out to me so checked at home and at Boots, found out I am 2cm shorter than I thought I was (which makes a difference of +1 BMI point to my total!). But just had weigh in at home with CDCs scales which now match mine and Boots so it is 7lbs off the total on here. I weigh in every two weeks so am pleased with that. As long as the numbers are going down I don't care how it adds up!

Hope everyone is having a good week and not too depressed with this rubbish weather we are having...
