Positive about sorting my weight this time...

[wendy]

Could do better.....
We keep going away for long weekends Lovely but not helpful.
Straight back on track, but a constant struggle. Only about 5lb to go. But I keep losing and gaining the same 5lb
You doing OK Linda ?

Oops sorry I forgot to post..I weighed myself last week and that was a total over the last 12 weeks of 11.1 kgs lost...I will weigh myself tomorrow morning as this will be week 13.

Well I am back from my hols and dreading the scales. I will weigh myself in the morning and will be back at SW Wednesday.

[manda]

I lost 1/2 kg this week so altogether 11.4 kgs.....this evening we went out to a BBQ for a friends birthday and well.....I truly broke the healthy eating thing.....there was just so much lovely stuff!!!..I will get back onto it tomorrow

[p.penn]

Oh well done Manda that's a lot of weight to have lost!

I am putting on the pounds and actually don't want any more now! I am over 9 stone now and haven't been this tubby for almost 5 years!

[wendy]

Spencer is working nearly full time at the moment, as they have 2 duty managers off sick.
So we are squeezing in seeing people when we can.
I have been out to eat 3 times [ twice an Indian meal] this week
Back with the 5lb on again

[Stef]

I'm holding steady without really trying. Just need to get the urge to get back at it. I have had to buy a couple of jumpers and am really pleased that I can wear them without worrying about the muffin top too much!

[MissEllie]

Well done Manda and Stef
I know what you mean Wendy, I had lost 20lbs earlier this year (although not entirely on purpose) but its all creeping back on now so time to restart the healthy eating.
Happy healthy eating everyone

[Linda S]

Well done again Manda and Stef

Wendy iv no doubt you will drop that small gain in no time at all

Iv lost 3lbs over the last few weeks now im off those awful tablets, but iv no end of birthdays coming up.

We had another birthday BBQ...and there were lots of puddings
I weighed myself this week anyway..and I' put on 2.5kgs!!!!!

Mind you those puddings were lush...ah well back onto healthy eating

[Linda S]

As long as you enjoyed it Manda, sometimes only a yummy pud will do

It will be off in no time knowing how well you are doing Lindaxx

[manda]

Well you know what Linda....they were all gorgeous!!! Iam not sure how many different ones there were but I had to try a bit of each which in the end was a mahoosive pud

Anyhoo I got onto the healthy eating thing and in the last two days I've lost 2kgs of those I've put on so I'm happy....actually I'm VERY happy because I now know 3 things....
1. I can have a mass blow out and I will put on weight (no surprise there!)
2. I can get back onto the healthy eating straight away and lose said weight.

The third thing is probably the most important....I've now gained insight...I don't have to deny myself anything as long as I get straight back into health eating straight after and it of course can't be everyday (more's the pity ) but it's enough I can still enjoy the one thing I love and not feel like I'm missing out.

I'm still a work in progress....I think food and I will always be involved in some sort of dance with one trying to lead the other and will probably still feel that when I turn up my toes but without intending it to be last weekend has turned out to be a good lesson can someone please tell me why could I not have got this years ago???

[wendy]

Goodness Linda, I think your celebrations are worse than mine.
Out Friday with our Daughter, dinner last night to a friends house.
Tomorrow is our sons 49th birthday, so today we are off soon to see him and our grand daughter for....lunch.
You have hit it on the head Manda, Once you are where you want to be. You can have a 'blow out' and then get back straight away and lose it again.
My family get exasperated with me and my recurring 5lb. But if I didn't 'mind' it, it would get to 10,15,20 lb.
Good luck everyone for the coming week.
An Indian meal on Friday for me, so I have got to knuckle down again.

[manda]

So I got on the scales after I decided Christmas was going to be an anything goes time.....well I've put 3 kgs on
I didn't think I'd been that reckless but the scales obviously think differently....ah well I don't mind back on it again after tonight (New Year).
