Feeling great in 2012!
Is this the one you tried on Moosh?

No, this one is even nicer! But I can't justify over £50 on something that may not even suit me- one of the reasons for the weightloss is so that I can buy in regular shops, so I'll be able to try things on in Topshop etc! So buying this one.... can't justify it. But so lovely!

Yes, but definitely something to buy for a special occasion, not just because you want it otherwise you may not even wear it. The £12 purchase was a better buy in that sense

Yup yup, i don't mind if I never wear the £12 one. I think thats a good price to pay for motivation! plus well, it has tags so if I do get a 12 and it doesn't fit/suit I'll sell it again! Woo!
Last time I was losing weight I promised myself something from Desigual if I ever got to goal- that was on RC, so a loss of 1-2lb a week. Never thought I'd get to goal, and I was right! No rash promises this time, I know I will bloody get there this time so no way am I thinking a £150 dress for a reward- maybe from ebay!
Moosh, just wanted to say well done and I reckon you will be in that size 12 dress before you know it.
I have done something similar. I am now in size 12 jeans (feels amazing) but still size 16 top in most brands. My goal was always that I would fit into a size 14 top but now that I am fairly near, I have realised that I am a muffin top and realistically, so that I dont look like an upside down weeble, I will probably have to lose a bit more (wish I was less well endowed!).
I think the motivation of a lovely item of clothing is brilliant - every week you can try it on and it will get less and less tight until that glorious moment when you try it on and it fits...!!! I reckon with the way you are going,the Per Una dress will be like a glove in no time!

That's lovely moosh. And we'll want a photo of it actually on you of course once it arrives if it fits / suits.

Morning Cupcake!
Yup, ebay isn't the most trustworthy place but I've only had a couple of probs- jeans described as short were medium and an electronic thingy only working a month. I don't buy electrics from there now! I do get all my jeans as I know what ones I like, M&S and Matalan, so I can just search for tham in my size!

Monday again, started with porridge with allspice and garam masala! Yum. Now just finishing off my protein meal- 200g of lettuce, celery, shallots, and cucumber, with a tin of sardines over. Yum again!
I've made muffins, apple and raisin cinnamon ones. Aaargh they look and smell so nice but they are for the kids so not that tempting, I do them with less sugar and spice so they are pretty bland. My eyes want to eat them, and my nose! But not the rest of me. Going to give one to baby for snack (she'll just pluck out the raisins but oh well, manual dexterity!) and take one each for the older kids after school. Ballet day today! Then I'll freeze the rest for every so often.
So far today have had- cup tea, can coke zero, 500ml bottle coke zero, glass water, and most of a 2l bottle of coke zero.... need to slow down! Will have last glass of coke from the bottle when I get back from school run, then switch to water. But I can easily drink 2-3l water in an hour! Sigh, need to watch myself.
Hope some of my books or ebay stuff comes today, ok a little early for stuff I ordered yesterday but I did order a few books on friday maybe they'll come!
