Down 1lb this week and I got my Half Stone award. Not bad going as I ate a box of chocolate at the weekend. Part of one of my Mothers Day gifts from my daughter - I was assured that they didn't count though as they were for Mothers Day. :-))

Onwards and Downwards.

Well done rowan and everyone. I dont think I`ll be as lucky tonight. Had a bad week. Was at a funeral yesterday and it was typical buffet food, and going out for meal tonight for our anniversary. I will be getting weighed before I go out though. I seem to have lost it a bit this week. So much else on my mind at the moment. I must get focused again.

Good luck to you all

[boxtops]

Boo, I've put on a pound this week, but I know what it was - I am not downhearted!

[wendilla]

Well done Rowan think I will start decorating. I have lost 1lb that's the first for a few weeks so I am on track again. Jools I have had chocs too but put them in a drawer so I don't see them but that don't work.Boxtops as long as you know what it is you can rectify it. Thotherhalf you will get back on track..Onwards and Downwards

[wendilla]

Well done Redhelen sorry I missed you out.

[tiggerblue10]

I've lost 2lb this week. I'm well chuffed as my BMI just says overweight now rather than obese! Lol. I never felt obese but now its gone under 30 so I'm pleased. Well done to everyone who has lost weight and for those that haven't, good luck for next week :o)))

[tiggerblue10]

I hate the gym Helen, but good luck anyway. I use to belong to a gym a few years ago but lost interest and just used their swimming pool. such a waste of money so I cancelled after a year. If you enjoy it then it makes it easier. Have fun! :o)

[wendilla]

Well done Tigger it looks like the better weather does help as we are not inclined to eat so much heavy foods .Well that's my excuse.

[tiggerblue10]

Thanks Wendilla, I'm actually surprised I stuck at it this week as I normally feel a lot more hungry at certain times of the month (if you get my drift). Didn't go out yesterday as it was raining but the sun is out today so we are going for a long walk later on. I want to get in as much walking as possible before I go back to work.

[Marijn]

Aaaah, so this is where you all are! I've lost a pound this week, so very pleased about that. Well done to all the losers. And good luck everybody, for next Wednesday.

[tiggerblue10]

Well done Notafish :o)

I went out for a walk earlier and remembered to put my pedometor on and I did over 10,000 steps. Mind you I did walk for over an hour.

[Noraq]

Well done to all you 'losers' and if you had a little set back..remeber tomorrow is a brand new day!.
I like to share this with you:
I went shopping to-day and found myself starting at the back end of the dress rail (where the larger sizes are) then I remembered..I don't have to do that anymore..Jeepers it felt good.

I know I will always have to watch how I eat (old habits die hard)..but days like to-day make it all worth while.

Hope that did'nt read as smug...because, believe me, there were days in the last year when I thought of just accepting my lot. and got more and more depressed. N.x.

[JoolsTwo]

I know the feeling Noraq - I lost 3.5 stone 2 years ago. I always used to shop at Evans before that but now even the smallest sizes in there a a little baggy - Well they were. The weight started to creep back, which is why I returned to Slimming World a few weeks ago. I don't want to start back dress shopping in Evens.

Onwards and Downwards.
