Love the lucky dip idea... That's fab! Also love the way you handled your family- I've been catching up as I've been a bit low on energy over the past few days. My mum and sister have had gb operations. They have/are dealing with size issue but psychological stuff still going on with them so food is v taboo in our family. I'll take a leaf out of your positivity book!
I also struggle having nothing while others are eating and am getting used to having a drink! It's fine just to have a drink!
Keep going!

Day 63
Well thats week 9 over and done with! Was so sure that I wouldn't be able to do this diet and lose weight that I have to remind myself that I am doing it. I think once I get into the 13 stone bracket my mindset might change, here's hoping.
So in 9 weeks I have lost almost 27lbs. Not as much as some of you here, but I am a very slow loser ( think its down to medication) and I still have over 4 stone to go, so think I will be on S&S for a long time yet. Not lost any of my measured inches this week, so they must be coming off somewhere else.
Will need to up my water a bit, not drank as much the past few days, think because its so cold outside.
My son took a picture for me a couple of weeks ago of my face, which I hate because it is just so fat. I have a picture taken a few weeks before S&S that was the trigger for me starting this plan, of myself and my very slim friend. My face looks enourmous and my eyes are tiny cos I have so much blubbler. I looked at the photo my son took the other day, and yes my face is still big but it now has less chins and a jawline. I looked so much better. So they are on my phone, and I will look at them often to remind me how far I have come.
Really missing my afternoon bar from S&S, think I will need to put an order in over the weekend, now OH gets paid on Monday. Also need to think of some new treats I can give myself for hitting weight loss milestones. When I lose 4 stone I have promised myself a new pair of Uggs, but still have my 2 stone and getting down to the 13's to think of. Might get my nails done, need to think about it.
Anyway enough of my ramblings today, hope you all have a great weekend. I am working so no food temptations for me.

Woohoo! Well done you. I am also a slow user, but it is heading in the right direct, does it really matter? You are only 5lbs off your xmas target- you're going to smash it. I need to take some more photo's too. Plan to upload them on here once I get to target.

Day 67
Still 100% but it doesn't look like I am losing this week. Have been tracking it and each day I go up by a 1/4 of a pound. Can only put it down to hormonal. My period should be here but doesn't look like it will be appearing anytime soon
I decided to come off the propanonol so have been reducing it to every second day then every third and now I have not had any since Friday night. I have been really tired and no energy since reducing started and slept for 2 hours on the couch today. I also have earache and a sore throat so must have done kind of virus but not back to work til Thursday night so have a few days to rest.
Positives for today
Two different people commented on my weight loss last night
Today I tried on a pair of size 16 jeans from next today. Really comfy on but have a big muffin top. Think I need another 7lbs off before they will be wearable.
Can't see my collar bone yet but I can feel it now
Hope everyone has a good day

What fab NSV today! sorry your not feeling so good! hopefully you will be on the mend soon
the 1/4 of a pound each day could be water retention due to TOTM on its way but not yet made an appearance! hope it is a good loss for you! our bodies work in weird ways!

Day 70
Just lost 1lb this wekk. I know its a loss but its hard going when you are 100% and other people get large losses every week. Still I have now lost exactly 2 stone in 10 weeks.
I think I will treat myself to something for my carft, I make a lot of cards, so will trawl ebay for something indulgent.
Maybe by Xmas I will be into the 13's, that would be nice.

Two stone in ten weeks! What a legend! I've been frustrated with loss but haven't stuck to plan. Back on it now for Christmas and beyond. 16 jeans are muffiny on me too- not for the eyes of the public... Yet! I'm over 17st though, so nowhere near the 13s!
Keep going... Won't be long!
