Just been to buy new work trousers. Got a few pairs all in a size 12 and they're actually a bit loose on me :)

Am so pleased!!! Haven't worn size 12 trousers for years!! X

Excellent Hun :) well done xxxxxx
 
Thank you :)
 
New Oxendales catalogue (sizes 12-36) came and I don't need it! Picked up a jacket and jeans yesterday in a size 10. :D
 
Sat here in my 36" jeans, nice and comfy not tight.. because of the differences in shops sizes I could only get into some of the shops jeans, now I can get into all of the 36" jeans from all the shops I buy from :).. hopefully 34" by xmas and one day soon i'll buy a proper designer pair :p
 
I gave in today and had some caramel shortbread at work... but I only had one because I could check the cals on the pack and work out the syns :) so still completely on plan and have loads of free foods and superfree snacks for tonight if I need them. Still have some syns left as well as only used 9 on the shortbread and 1 on a bit of extra bread over my HEB allowance
 
Been in the pub for 7 hours today, and have come home sober (only had 5 vodkas) and finishing the day on 14.5 syns!

A major achievement for me after what feels like one thousand days off plan! X

Met my Auntie for lunch today and she suggested we go for either McDonald's, KFC or Burger King, I said is there a subway nearby as I fancy one of those instead :)

I'm so happy I didn't give in to the others lol xxx

Had a few people come up to me saying how great I look, still get embarrassed by it lol

And I've been off work all week and not slipped up eating bad food, but on Friday I went to the gym and blitzed it.

only ran a marathon on the cross trainer ;) took me nearly 4 hours and i'm still knackered now :(

Had to run it in two parts as the machine only lets you run so far at a time. but only rested as long as it took to set machine up again.
What an awesome feeling to be able to say I've ran a marathon (ok, on a machine.. but still done one lol)

Well done that's fantastic :)
 
I weighed my 4-year old son today - he's 18 kg, the exact same weight that I've lost so far!! (2 stone 11.5 lbs). It's suddenly struck me that I was carrying the equivalent to him around with me all day, every day, so it's no wonder that I'm feeling the difference. I've still got the weight of my 2-year old to lose too, but looking at it in those terms is just mind-blowing :D

I had a similar experience years ago, I lost 5.5 stone through calorie counting and saying that I'd lost over 2 of my son, he weighed 2.5 stone at the time, I tried to imagine what carrying 2 of him around with me all time would be like, crazy!!
Massive well done to you!!! Xxx
