Awesome Gaga you must feel chuffed. I think a few of us have had a few ahem, naughty extras this bank holiday.
I'm in real anticipation for my WI.

Thanks guys. Still feeling rather chuffed to be honest. Got out the size 18/20 clothes yesterday from my loft and was surprised by how many actually fit! Top is definitely an 18 and bottoms 22/20 depending on make so looking good considering a 26 bottom was tight 17 weeks ago and 22 top was snug too. Looks like my Sainsbury's 25% bank holiday prediction deal came true yet again. Stocked up on a load of goodies over the past 2 days including a dress in a size 18 which just makes me feel a million dollars (no photos tho in case the truth isn't so realistic!). Wish I could feel confident having my photo taken tho. Can't remember the last photo taken of me sadly. Even on my honeymoon there are only 2 photos of me and they are both awful! Determined to get over this issue this year!
My arm is healing up nicely so far apart from pain around the stitches so all good on that front. Guess if I don't hear from the hospital then it is good news and haven't hear anything so far so fingers crossed......
Got some friends round for lunch today so making them salad bits and pieces then now going to cook cookies and rocky roads for then to gnoar on all afternoon. Determined to have nothing today and be 100%TS. My mantra for the week is to get into those 15's as I have sooooooooooo many clothes to squeeze into now lol!!
Here's to a happy sunny Wednesday peeps xxx

Well tis nearly the weekend and the sun is still a shining!!woo hoo!
Stupidly had a sneaky WI this morning and am 1.5 lbs heavier- wish I hadn't bothered! I tell myself everytime then end up doing it anyway- so silly. Got a busy day today then out with friends tonight and having a burger and salad with them then that's it with the protein nibbles for me.
Going away camping next week for a few days so bit anxious about how that will work with the plan as normally hubbie and I just pig out and drink loads- not sure how my willpower will hold out. Keep thinking of wearing a bikini tho so must, must, must stay on track or will just not be able to by time of holidays.
On a positive had loads of comments about losing weight at work yesterday which was quite nice. Think it was down to wearing clothes that actually fit rather than hanging off me! Still zero comment from hubbie tho.....this is my 18th week and nothing. Man I could wring his neck at times.
Hope everyone is doing OK xxx

Crikey- took 6 stone for you to get a comment! OMG...I got a while to go yet then.......boo! Mine is pretty useless with comments or just general niceties so I cannot expect him to change (although wouldn't bloomin' mind I tell thee!)
Yeah think WS may the way forward whilst we are away and just no alcohol. Haven't been able to tolearte coke zero since doing this so will be easy on the water front I think. Will try for a at least one TS day but know I will end up doing all the camping cooking as usual and that will involve eggy bread. full english's, pasta etc for him so will be a big test as won't be able to run off and hide on my garden swing whilst he scoff's which is what I usually do!

Well I'm back after a manic weekend. BBQ on Fri was lovely but think I overdid the the protein by having a small steak, burger and a sausage! Woopsie. Was bloomin lovely tho and nice to eat with friends and socialise I have to say! Haven't eaten since and am going to stay TS until my camping trip on Thurs when will swap to WS for 3 days then back onto TS for a month me thinks.
Don't feel like I have lost any more weigh and the scales do back me up on this from my cheeky weigh ins however my clothes are getting mahoosive and the compliments are flying in. I saw some families from work who I hadn't seen since last year and they were full of praise which was really nice. Today I even got into a pair of size 20 trousers that I bought last year "to diet into" but could never get them past my knees and now they fit just bloomin lovely. So definnitely reaping the benefits I would say.
Really want to get into some exercise. My bike, the shred and my swimsuit are all ready- just need the nod from the doc to say I can kick off and hopefully I'll be pumped up ready to go! Seeing the doc on Tues so stitches can come out so will see what they think then but technically will be less than 2 weeks into my 4 week break so who knows......
WI tomorrow then guys but heading for a STS at best but will be sticking with it anyhows xxx

You sound like you have had a very well earned weekend Gaga
Could you not go your bike for excercise whilst your arm heals ?
Or is it one of those new fangled hand powered bikes

Very intrigued about what one of those fangled high powered bikes look like!!! Yay the bike is definitely on- just sadly had zero time this week to get on it! I work long days (12.5 hours) with at least an hours travel either side so on working days I get zero done and recently my days off have been manic too. Now on nights for next 2 days then we are off camping so lots of walking then and hopefully can kick off with my plans a week today. Sounds like I'm making naff excuses doesn't it...promise I'm not xx
I will get shredding Marge.............promise xx (I visualise you just like Miss Jillian herself with a whip in hand lol!)

Yuk, I know what you mean by the 12 hour shifts and 2 hours travelling. I did alot of those myself, a good few years ago.
A couple of good pals are nurses, and they do very long hours too
I WISH I had the body of Miss Jillian
The attitude and the whip, I can do though

You're not going to believe this MM friends......I've forgotten to WI!!!!
I'm stunned with myself! After 18 weeks on plan how can I forget to WI. I blame my night shift brain. As you know I like to weigh in after I wake up from my day sleep post-night shift. Today for some bizarre and very lucky reason I slept from 10-7pm so woke up all flustered. I checked my emails as soon as I got up and found the dreaded results email from the uni so got a little distracted.
Please to report that I passed my assignments for my module with extreme flying colours so pleaseed does not come close to how I feel about it at all! I then got so carried away with showering and getting ready for work that I forgot to scale hop!! Will do it first thing tomorrow- I promise!
Weird feeling tonight as feel like I want to celebrate with a big meal and some champagne....instead I resorted to a 'treat' of a chocolate shake as only got 5 left so they are being strictly rationed!!
Tomorrow as well as Wi I have a smear test and stitches to be removed so treats all round hey.....not!!!!!!!!! Dreading it but needs must.
Hope everyone is doing ok xx
