Yay 3lbs off for me this week :) Finally off the starting line!

well done again hun you've worked hard to get that and staying focused even when disappointed has well paid off x
 
Hi there...another 1lbs off for me please this week :)

Well done! :)

Hi everyone,

I've been (easily) persuaded to join in :D Can I include my loss from today please? (3lbs) That would be great if so.
I'd like to lose 2 stones 5.5 lbs by Christmas, that will take me under target so that I can really enjoy the celebrations and not have to worry about putting a few pounds on. :)
We did a long-term target thing at group last week. It was for how much we want to lose by the start of the 6 weeks holidays. I think I put down 1 stone 5.5 lbs for that so if I manage to do it then I'll have a good four months or so to get the last stone off, which I'm imagining is going to be the most difficult and stubborn bit to lose.

Eeee, I'm excited now. Something to look forward to Crimbo for. (Not like last year when I hardly crossed the doors because I felt I looked at state in everything...)

Right have read the 1st and last page of the thread, off to teach a piano lesson for an hour but when I get back I will get myself up to date so I can get to know eveyone.

xx

Hi Andrea, and welcome the Team Tinsel :D Great to have another member! Loving your enthusiasm and the food on your diary is soooooo yummmmmmmmy :d lol Big well done on your loss so far, and good luck for the rest of your journey :)

I've added your Christmas target and loss this week to the list on the fron page :)

Yay 3lbs off for me this week :) Finally off the starting line!

So pleased for you :) Fab loss! Well done

So WI for me tonight and I have lost 2.5 to get my 3 stone sticker and into the 14s :)

WTG Marie! You're off the starting blocks and back in business! Well done on the loss, your 3 stone sticker AND dropping into another stone! You certainly got the hat trick this week! lol Brilliant :D

I have just counted up... is it 34 more weigh ins?

Yep that's right :D I've still got 35 WIs, but after tomorrow I'll be on 34 too :D We've got plenty of time to ditch 4 stone eh? :D lol

Good morning everyone, and a happy Friday!! It's STILL raining here and I'm sick to the back teeth of getting wet everytime I take the dogs for a walk! lol It's the wettest drought I've ever heard of! lol

I really need to go shopping! Was going to go last night, but I just couldn't be bothered :eek: So today I'm having a bit of a mish mash of food and using up what I've got. I should do this more often actually, it would save me a fortune! lol I made some yummy soup last night though at least I've got summat good to take to work :D

Have a fab day everyone! x
 
What flavour soup did you make Corky?? Impressed by your organisation :)

I spend an absolute fortune on food - yikes and am trying to run my freezer down - could be a dead body in there!!!

Hope everyone has a fab Friday xx

I made spicey BNS soup Dex - it's lovely, and very easy to make, as are all soups! lol Just chuck some onion, carrot and BNS together, add stock, seasoning and chilli flakes. Cook, blend, and voila! Lovely soup :D

I spend loads on food too, and I'm sure if I were more organised I could trim the bill down a bit but making myself use what I have in before I shop again! lol

Have a good day Dex, and enjoy wiine night tonight :D x
 
I've just tried my fave coat on thinking "what are you doing this for you stupid woman, it didn't fit last month, so it won't fit this month!" because due to holiday and 'do's' I've only lost about 4lb since I last tried it on! lol But it fits me now :eek: It wouldn't even fasten last time! And I've only lost 4lb!! Very strange :confused: lol Not complaining like, but I still find it very strange! lol 4lb on someone my size isn't enough of a loss to make such a difference :confused: Oh well, I'll take it! :giggle:
 
And here's a random statistic for you all...........together we have lost 41.5lb so far - that's 0.5lb short of 3 stone!!!! FANTASTIC :D Well done everyone xx

Woohoo!! Thing is corks you may think its only 4lbs but it's the inches that matter and you've probably lost quite a few of em! Have you taken your inches? You should!

No, I never bothered to take any measurements when I started, perhaps because they were such big numbers I didn't want to pee myself off by reading them!! :8855::8855:

Take some! The best thing I did was take them
(although for the same reasonit wasn't till 2stone loss I took them)
I went through a few weeks of trying and just not losing - I was proper jacked off until I was told to retake measurements and found I was losing inches not pounds during that time - helped me to see the bigger picture - now I'm back to losing pounds :)
 
That's quite true Ellen :D I shall dig out my extra long tape measure tonight take them.............I will ya know! lol

You better! I've lost about 6 inches off my waist and about 4 off my hips... lost about 3 from my rib cage (under bust), don't measure over bust as breastfeeding makes it fluctuate so much depending on feeds...
 
lots going on here! welcome to the newcomers!
 
Wow that's fab Ellen I also measure weekly it's great when the scales don't move but can see inches lost
Corkey that's great about the coat I can't fasten mine up but hope to soon
