You're amazing Gem! Posted off 4 pairs of size 18's to you today -- one black casual, 2 chocolate brown, and a really nice pair of camel-coloured trousers with a lo waistband that I loved wearing. Have fun, and take any you don't like down to the charity shop, along with your size 22's as you won't be needing then again!
Had two late nights in a row with working and I am very tired. Early night tonight. 10.30 at the latest. Weigh in tomorrow morning. Fingers crossed!

Hi there,
Lost 2lbs. Was hoping for 3lbs but at least the scales are moving again. My CDC thinks I should SS if I want better results, but I don't think I could hack it. Gonna give another week and then reassess. I can't complain really because I am doing SS+ and it suits me well.
I make that 1.1% of my body weight in a week. I'm gonna stop moaning!

Well done Frances and Gem you are both doing really well. Just checked your percentage on my spreadsheet and it says 1.16% you have to be please with that in a week. I wouldn't go to SS unless you really want to yes the results can be great but also not so great...and its very restrictive i feel quite isolated a lot of the time which is why i will be moving up in a few weeks. Are you on SS+ or 810?

Hi there, just realised that you're 5'7" -- I'm only a short arse of 5'3" so I think the black Marks ones might be too short for you as I always buy a medium length if it's offered, but the others, particularly the camel ones, should be OK. Still it will be fun getting into them.
Very tired again this evening and will definitely go to bed early as I have bought myself an electric blanket!! So fed up with getting into bed tired and not being able to get to sleep for ages until I warm up -- even with two duvets and a hot water bottle!
Yes, I am pleased with my 2lbs loss. It gives me something to aspire to (3lbs) next week and that keeps me focused. I am so close to both getting into the 11's and getting my BMI down to under 30 (don't know which will happen first) that I am really determined to get my water intake up and maybe do some light exercise to give me that boost.

Sorry; I've been insanely busy lately and dealing with a bunch of crap. To make matters worse, I wasn't losing anything so I pretty much gave up on the diet. I'm going to go back on it, but not the full thing. I think I'll do 1 meal and 1 shake a day. I wonder if the combination will let me lose? It's just so frustrating, and I'm finally confident in myself as a person so I'm less desperate to be that size 6.
hi Gem, sorry I haven't been around. I went up to London yesterday and stayed over with my friends. Glad the trousers arrived safely. Loooove the pics. You really have shrunk! You are doing so well. Put those pics up somewhere where you can see them every morning to inspire you with the difference you have already made!
Hey, Peach, it sounds like you metabolism needs a kick start. I do think going up the plans will help, but be careful if you are going to 2 packs a day that you still follow the 1000 plan to get all the nutrients you need. Good luck.

:wow: 5lbs! Well done you!! Why, on earth, did you think that you had not lost weight?
Went for a lovely 2 hour walk today on the South Downs Way. And guess who I walked past............but David Soul! Out walking his dog with his OH. He lives nearby. I noticed him because he was wearing sunglasses, on a day like today (??) and a big leather hat. And then when he said "Hi there" with a strong American accent I recognised his voice. Pretty sure it was him. As I said, I know he has a house in Rustingham, which is about 5 miles away from where I saw him!

Who on earth is David Soul??? Never heard of him! Just googled him and still none the wiser!
Mel Gibson lives near me but alas I have never seen him we did find his house though! Also Stephen Fry lives near me and I have met him several times and served him when I worked at Waitrose! We also had Prince William come in, Jane Horrocks and half of the cast of ITV's Kingdom. Not bad for a small town in Norfolk!!!
I don't know why I thought I hadn't lost Frances. Think I am just on a huge downer at the moment. Hopefully I will cheer up when I get into the new house!
Went sofa shopping at DFS yesterday afternoon. I had already chosen this one:
Mikel Fabric Corner Group Shown With Optional Footstool | dfs | think sofas think dfs
but just had to persuade Mike. The deal maker was the footstool with him! So we have ordered it and hopefully it will be delivered in 4wks! So excited!!! xxx

I am shocked that you don't know who David Soul is! What age are you? Am I really that old? He was my heart throb when I was 13! He is Hutch outa Starsky & Hutch. Does that not ring any bells? You remembered Little House on the Prairie and The Waltons?
Sorry to hear you are feeling a little down these days. A few people on here have been too. Think it must be something to do with the darker evenings. I quite like the winter. I mean I prefer the summer, but winter has some things going for it to. I like the fact that we are going to be slo slim by the time the summer comes again!
You must be looking forward to moving into your new home? When will that be?

I'm 24. I never watched Starsky and Hutch Frances although I am familiar with what it was about.
I love winter!!! Much prefer it to summer. I just think that work is getting to me still. Trying to focus on the positives and think that it won't be long before I can try to be a CDC.
Moving on Saturday! I can't wait!!!! By then it will only be 4 weeks until the school breaks for Christmas too yay!!! And my new sofa will be delivered! Double yay!!! xxx
