Haha! It does give you a boost though when you realise you've got a stone less to lose. Well done.

Welcome newbies, we'll all get there. Have faith, what I've been saying to myself lately is its only food! I know it sounds stupid but I've always been so obsessed about planning and shopping and I just stopped doing it all and took so much focus off food and just wait until I'm truly hungry to eat something. Seems to be working a treat these last 3 weeks.
Another 2lbs off at WI today

I have been busy with my new job that I love. Although, I don't post as much as before (limited time) but I read comments every evening.
It is a fantastic feeling losing 4 stone - it is awsome. I never dreamt of losing 5 stone but somehow I did. Must say that maintaining is harder than actually losing - never ever want to be the size I was before. Mind you it is a great feeling walking to a shop buying normal size clothes and feel fit and not out of breath.
I am sure you get there very soon. Have you finished all your exams now - that makes a lot of difference with sticking to plan.
Have a lovely weekend.

I bet, you did so well 5stone is an amazing achievement. Also really pleased to hear about your job going so well. Must be fun to do something you're enjoying. I think I'll be ok at maintaining as I sts so much anyway its the losing part I find so tough!
Uni is all done until oct now, picked up the final mark today and despite failing a module (I'm so gutted about it as my average was really good) ive had some great results and feedback.
Trying to start a little business too so im all excited about that
Have a lovely weekend

Im doing a joint honours in childhood studies and early years, im not sure if I will have to resubmit or they'll let it go based on my average. I hope they let it go as I'll be capped at 40 anyway so all the extra work for 4% is rubbish.
The business is up and running once ive done a few more bits I'll share with you all as its a lil sparse at present!
Have a lovely weekend everyone xx

Did you weigh in early? Remember that your weight changes naturally throughout the week - don't be down, just stick to the plan

Morning all, and happy sunny Sunday
So... I weighed this morning having missed it last week due to being away... so that is 4lb on in ten days. I have three days until official WI on Wed to reign this back in, and hope for a smaller gain or sts. Also joined the June challenge which I've gone for 4lb off, but in reality from today that is 8 in total! Ridiculous for me, but hoping this holiday gain will buzz off swiftly.
Off for my early morning random Sunday CT scan this morning, I guess the dept has to be open so they use it for appointments at weekends!? Next step towards a resolution for my poor back

Had a row with hubs about money (again!)
He`s going back to his childhood collecting picture cards that used to be given away in packets of tea!
Spent half the money we had in the bank and can`t understand why I got upset!! I end up having to sort out the mess!! GGGRRR!!!
It`s been a recurring theme. He spends money, I get upset. He makes promises, then slides back again. I`m fed up always being broke. Same old thing, he`s a lovely bloke but useless with money!! His gran and mum were the same!!
We`re in our fifties and need to have a game plan for our old age. But he can`t see it!!
I`ve threatened to cut up his bank card ( done it before!) He doesn`t know that I`ve set up a savings account in my own name. I`ll put what I can there where he can`t touch it! (hopefully!)
Sorry for the rant, feel better now!!

Oh no Annie, that's not good! I hope he will listen to you one day. That's very sensible setting up your own savings. My dad was terrible with money and left my my mum with a few financial problems when he died so I also keep control of my own money as I never want to be in that position! My husband is obsessive with buying music and has wasted thousands on cd's over the years, it drives me mad so I can sympathise with how you feel! I have also confiscated his card before.
Hope your day gets better.
