I used to be obsessed by the scales - would weigh myself every morning. And then don't talk to me about the Wii - that was defo an obsession. Now I skip the body test and go straight to the workouts. No body test till Friday - LOL!!

Afternoon all and glad everyone is doing well. Finished work today at 2pm as it is my half day, although i should go to the dentist as i have been suffering from toothache for a few days and today it is agony But i will wait until i cant bear it no more as i hate the dentist :cry: Lets hope the painkillers do the trick.

On track today so far , heres to a good evening for everyone.

Cherry - dont worry too much about the scales, and try and wi just once aweek. I am the same as you, i haven't lost for 3 weeks just had sts and i am so tempted to wi but i will wait until Monday.

away to get a cuppa and take a couple of painkillers before i go on my treadmill

Hi ladies, your all early birds I love school holidays as my kids get up later and I get a lie in though after waiting 15 years to get to this point it's nice

Was good yesterday had 20.5 points of my 21,18 points Monday and I did zumba, BUT my scales say I gained 1/2lb in 24 hours? This happened 3 weeks ago I lost 3.5lbs and the following week I gained 2.5lbs and I did plan 100% and exercised? So am worried it's going the same way?I really want 2lbs thus week to get to3 stones

I will continue as I am zumba again tonight, if I gain this week then I'm confused as in 22 weeks I haven't gone over points once ?

Have a lovely day x

That is amazing you havent gone over your points in 22 weeks, you must be so proud of your achievements so far - I hope you get your 3 stone!! Can I ask what is Zumba?

Hiya ghezzz thanks hun,no I havent gone over once I am never going to say I wont but I atm want to get to 6 months 100% for some reason? I did have a 2.5lbs gain 3 weeks ago so I do feel we can gain when not blipin?I think our bodies and weightloss is hard to figure out,I had 3.5lbs loss monday so this is whyIm wobbly at the scales

Zumba is the new fitness craze its areobics but latin dancing mixed with african dancing in intervals,you hvae fun sweat and burn 600+ calories,I love it went monday and tonight,the class is jammed from ages 13 to 60+ and theres about 60 people in a large school hall,my 14 year old daughter comes with me shes just lost nearly 2 stone on ww also.
I used to do areobics but this is easier in the sense its 10 minutes each workout.
Thanks I hope I get my 3 stones too Id love 3lbs to get into the 100s but thats just greedy hey
How are you doing? Ok?xxx

Id say always try count your points and write everything down as its easy to forget.
For tea you could have some protien chicken turkey as its the best thing to eat,maybe a Lfat chicken curry? Or turkey boliganise?
You have alot of points ;left so you could have a really filling meal and something sweet x
