Only 1 off this week, but I suppose its not been a full week and it's totm. I've been really good this week and got my Cambridge head back on. Hoping for a good loss next week to get me out of these 12s!

People are really starting to notice which is really nice. A friend text me just to say that she couldn't help notice how tiny I was looking that day, even people on other counters are noticing and telling me I look really well, so this is making me happy and feel much better. The comments are always about my waist though, haha, at the minute I think it's 29inches, but with my hips being another 10 on top of that it really makes me look small there. I just wish it'd come off my thighs and arms more!

Been trying to shop for holiday stuff but I have no idea what size I'll be on the bottom. I think there's only going to be a few more inches of my hips as I can feel my hip bones quite a lot and theyre definitely going to be good for childbearing as they're quite big! I'm 39 inches at the minute, so think I'm just going to play it safe and buy 12s for my junk loading bottom and hips!

Bought these from asos last night and took advantage of an extra 10% off. Think I'll head to primark today and see how much I can get for £20/£30!

1lb still isn't bad for TOTM! Well done :) its ace when people start noticing, it makes you realise you must be really making a difference. I think a 12 bottom should be ok, you're better off getting a bigger size rather than having some too small.

Loving the stuff you've bought! I'm so jealous, I want holiday clothes haha!
 
Managed to get some bargains for £20 from primark, came out with a few things and then found a beautiful cream dress with crosses on from outfit for £4.50!

I just got my bot into a pair of topshop size 12 denim shorts, so now I don't know if I should go for 10s!
 
Bargain! Oh my god I'm so jealous about the shorts! We all know Topshop sizes are tiny!! Well done!! I'd go for the 10 if they are for your hols :)
 
I was really surprised tbh because I just tried them on as a chance as id gotten into Matalan 12s but thought they might just be big. Really like the shorts but might have to try find a 10 from another store!

Only £10 too!

How're you getting on?
 
They are really nice! I love Aztec prints :)

I'm doing ok I think! I'm not really sure if this is working so I'll have to wait until my WI on Friday and see! When is your next WI?
 
I thought you were 3lbs down? That's working! Next weigh in is on sunday, so got 5 days to try lose something to get me out of the 12s! I had some malteasers at the cinema yesterday though :/
 
I was but then TOTM came (again!!!) and I went up to 13.7!!! Down to 13.4 now but it keeps fluctuating. I suppose I can only tell from my official weigh in on Friday. How much do you need to lose to get out of the 12's?
 
Aww no! Just ignore your weight at the minute then as you must be holding water.
I'm 12.4 as of yesterday, and I'm officially off so getting over totm and beig hopeful that I might be 12.0 or 11.13! So 4 or 5 lbs :/
 
I'm not losing anything this week. Wonder if I'm plateauing. Either way it's annoying me, so I had 3 slices of thin crust pizza and just ate a bit of chocolate. Pretty annoyed nothing happening even when I've been good :(.
 
On Friday I got annoyed at not losing so didn't eat much only some chicken and a flapjack, but on Saturday my boyfriends family all got together for a tea party type celebration, so I ate and drank. I enjoyed myself and found out some limits of food, as I got really full quickly. I gained 2lbs at weigh in but hopefully can just drink that bloating away.

Starting from scratch today and going to be good until Leeds fest which is 3 weeks away. Hopefully the up in calories then a dip back down to ss+ will get the losses rolling again. Going to try start swimming this week as get paid tomorrow! Need to tone up desperately!

Love the first one! And I wouldn't think you'd be too hot in that one.
Next weigh in is Sunday, hopefully therell be a good loss, want to be well into the 11s by Leeds.

The new a/w trends in store seem perfect for festivals, urban outfitters have loads in! But I think I'm gonna maybe buy a pair of shorts and just wear what I've got, or I'll spend a fortune!

I love it too but dunno if it would look weird because it would look awful buttoned all the way up to the top on me. I think I'll order it if I don't find anything this weekend. Also seen this dress in miss selfridge which i really like http://m.missselfridge.com/mt/www.m...d=222490&parent_categoryId=208100&pageSize=40

I have shorts I can wear for Bestival and probably one or two tops so only need probably another two tops to buy. Made a list of stuff I need to buy the other day and I'm getting really excited! Have you got your bits for Leeds yet? Going to buy about 100 packs of baby wipes haha. I always forget about urban outfitters!! I've never had anything from there, what are the sizes like? I'm still a 16 in topshop and a 14 (sometimes a 16) everywhere else.

I think you'll definitely be far in to the 11s for Leeds. How long after Leeds are you going to Ibiza?
 
Love that dress and looks quite lightweight so be nice and cool!
I think I'm going to buy another pair of shorts and probs be ok for Leeds. Topshop have some really nice ones in atm. I really want some ankle boots incase I don't need to wear wellies but can't find any cheap ones I like. I need to make a list actually, but need to avoid buying too much new stuff caus I don't really neeeed anything it's just wants.

I've got 6 weeks till ibiza so 3 weeks after Leeds, exited but scared! As even though I've lost weight and lost a lot of inches I still feel the same! :/ want my legs to be toned so bad so need to get myself swimming after this week of constant shifts at work.

I'm going to try the dress for my birthday night out in a couple of weeks :) I got some black Chelsea boots from primark for £8! Might be worth a look. Also got them in leopard print too. They are really comfy. I'm going to take my vans in case the ground is dry!

Your body can change loads in 6 weeks! I know how you feel though, when I lost 3 stone the first time around I felt the same as I did when I was almost 16 stone. It wasn't until I compared pictures of before and after that I really saw the difference. I even used to go in shops and still pick up an 18/20 not believing a 14 would fit. Very strange. If you keep going swimming in the run up to Ibiza you'll look great :D

Im sure i saw them the othet day. They're suede-y though aren't they? I want a leathery type.

I hope so! It doesn't seem like that long away at all! Hoping I can look a little different in time for Leeds too! I know, it's weird I wish we felt the difference as much as it actually is! I'm scared I'll still feel like this when I get to target!
 
Actually fed up of this diet tbh. It's causing arguments with me and my boyfriend, I can't even explain the arguments they're more concern from me and from him, neither of us want to hold each other back and I'm sick of the tiny limitation of food. :(.
 
I know exactly how you feel. I got like that loads doing a VLCD. I ended up feeling like I had no life because everything revolves around food and drink! I was getting grumpy all the time and stressed out :(

Just stick with it until Ibiza. The time will fly by and you'll feel fab on your holiday, then you can switch to a diet plan which gives you more freedom when you get back and you can lose the last little bit that way. I wish I had your willpower! You've done so well x

It's not even that it's silly things like deciding what to eat when we come to making dinner, it's getting annoying. I don't want to come off it but I've become more lax with it and I find I'd rather not eat anything than have a cd product because I'm not finding them appealing. Yet I don't want to give up. Maybe it's just a phase because I know it's not because I feel more comfortable and happy, because I feel just the same as I did at 15stone!
