    Default WEEK 7. WHERE IS EVERYONE?

    Hi all.

    My weight loss is in the doldrums - mostly due to being on holiday last week and making wild and probably innacurate guesses about the contents of meals made by other people.

    Still hopeful of getting back on track this week by taking control of the shopping/cooking.

    Having a rubbish morning. Same old story - had parents visiting and so have been up since dawn polishing everything that didn't run off. After half an hour of waiting phoned them, only to hear "Oh but we got an offer of a place at the nursery we were interested in - did we forget to tell you?" Some people just make you want to attack the chocolate biscuits don't they?

    I hate it when that happens. Look on the bright side, at least you have a nice clean house and it's still so early in the day! Also, at least they didn't come anyway and waste more of your time - I hate that one even more!

    I've lost 9 and a half pounds with Slimming World and it's doing my confidence the world of good! I've still got a long way to go though!

    Good luck everyone.x

    Hi,

    I'm doing really well on my diet! Lost a stone and dropped a dress size since Christmas. This is the longest I have ever kept a diet going for but my will power is starting to drop now! Although I love the feeling of a smaller clothes size too much to stop I think! I'm also exercising at least 3 times a week and walking everywhere rather than catching the bus or getting DH to drive me! I walk the 3 miles to preschool to pick DD up now but do get the bus back as she would never manage the walk!
    If you do not hope, you will not find what is beyond your hopes

    Doing ok not the fastest but a change of diet/habits forever (I hope)

    lost 12lb since mid Jan, having a few treats and meals out for different occasions but getting back to healthy eating after instead of giving up is working
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    I joined WW online in Jan and in 10 weeks lost a meesly 1lb. I did lose 5lb but gained 4. Have determined that I am a quantity eater. I do not feel satisfied unless my plate is piled high and you can't really do this on WW. So, last night I took the plunge and joined SW (again!!).

    Feeling very positive today and would like to lose nearly 3 stone this year......how did I manage to gain that much weight

    How's everyone else doing?

    You can’t have everything. Where would you put it?
