This made me laugh because i have done the same. Last years summer clothes which were becoming quite 'snug'..(for snug read tight ...lol), now fit me and in most cases are quite loose...my sister is a bit miffed cos I promised them to her.....I started just trying to stay bed for as long as possible but I felt I was cheating and missing half the day. I agree with Mikey - you've just got to pack a lot in at the weekend. I had a couple of "weekends at home" which were torture! I love gardening so I go out straight away and don't have my first pack until very late. Last weekend I went shopping in the West End and then off to the theatre with my cranberry bar. Then on Sunday I accompanied a thin friend to a casting call. Came home and she took my halfway photos which gave me the inspiration I needed for the rest of the day. My latest bit of excitement is throwing out (to charity) clothes as I grow out of them and trying on smaller clothes - can take hours if you do a lot of prancing in the mirror!
Oh how very glamorous! Shopping on the west end and off to teh theatre! wish i could do that! I love the theatre, and i've been to my local theatre a LOT more since i been on this dietI started just trying to stay bed for as long as possible but I felt I was cheating and missing half the day.

I couldn't do this without my workmates support....haven't they noticed you've lost weight??Hi rach! I'm a teacher too-I have my first shake a lunch time-the ready-made shakes from the carton. I slurp it down quickly in my classroom before heading to the staffroom and having a black coffee! Don't like people knowing I'm doing it and can't believe I've got away with it for 2 wks now without someone saying "are you not eating?". Lol
Dreading the weekend too- would rather do 40 weekdays than one weekend!!
