Hi Everyone...

[Caterpillergirl]

Not posted for a couple of weeks as the week before last I had a bad week :wave_cry:- didn't cheat but had a zero weight loss and was gutted but last Tues WI I lost 6lbs so feel better now - kept coming and reading everyones posts but just felt a bit fed up.
Feeling great now and I'm on my 5th week and still cooking for everyone in sight - I keep baking cakes and pies etc but my hubby and daughter can only eat so much so I'm taking the leftovers to my neighbour who has 5 children and they love the cakes hehe.

You are all doing great and should feel proud of your weight losses

Congrats on you 22lb weight loss. That's brilliant. Keep up the good work.

Thanks Aoife

You also are doing really well.
How are you finding LT - best diet ever

I no longer have cravings for food - but I am a bit of a feeder - keep feeding the family haha

Thanks MiniB
I can't wait for my hol and I want to enjoy being slim on holiday and I know I'll feel great this time- I'm hoping to lose one more stone before 8th June - do you think that's possible?

You've done so well and not long for your re-feed is it

 

[MiniB]

You could lose another stone by then. Whatever weight you are though you will feel so much healthier and fitter with the weight you've already lost so don't feel disappointed if you don't lose all of that stone.

I don't think I will reach my target before my hols either but to be honest, after losing this much I will be chuffed at whatever weight I get to, cos compared to last year I will be at least 7 stones lighter and not so hot all the time! Can't wait.

I have just over 5 weeks to refeed and can't wait. Brought it forward by about 5 days just so my body gets used to food as much as possible before hols.

Your 5 weeks will go fast I'm sure and yes it'll be nice to go away and not feel too hot
Thanks for your support Bev x

Hey Summer yes I do love cooking and baking as I know you do and you've done some brilliant cakes and I didn't understand what the fuss was about before when you posted pics with the warning - but we'd better not go there had we :sigh:
Anyway I have to try to think of different meals to cook each evening but keep running out of ideas? Any thoughts?

Well done on your loss. As with all diets we can have low weeks and I know for me that was when I fell off the wagon! You have kept on and are reaping the benefits! You deserve a great holiday.

Whereabouts in Cheshire are you? My little sis lives up there and we love visiting her (and the shopping up there! Lol!)
