Yay for getting back on the weighloss brides!!

I started the bride diet seriously 8 weeks before fitting and was happy with the results!! Plenty of time!

Just been to the gym... two weeks off vecause of post-hol busyness & illness... not gonna lie it was HARD!

Mummyme87 · 20/02/2017 10:16

Keep getting such sharp pains on right side of lower abdomen, had a constant uterus ache earlier and my right hip is aching. What is this?!? I hate the TWW!!!

Enjoy your bathroom designing grumpy
I keep looking at our garden wishfully hoping we had the money to have a landscaper cone in andvfort it out. Haven't really touched it since moving in.. well except for garden waste people removing the rubble

Seven0fNine · 20/02/2017 10:15

I vote nips is deffo a keeper :D

buzzmoon · 20/02/2017 10:13

Well done seven! 👏🏼👏🏼

Redpony1 · 20/02/2017 10:12

Morning ladies!

Glad you seem to be feeling more positive parsnips Smile

Hope today goes ok confused Flowers

Fingers crossed for Weds mummyme, so many people seem to get BFN at 10dpo but BFP at 12dpo so here's hoping.

I ran a 10 mile race in a PB time yesterday, my knee is a bit stiff today though!

Seven0fNine · 20/02/2017 10:11

Morning all! Here's the list again...it's nice to feel wanted buzz ;)

Hoping confused is OK xxx

How's the head this morning Jupiter?

It's so warm this morning so sat out in the garden having a cuppa and planning all the things I'm going to do this week. Mostly going to the tip, giving the house a good clean, getting some seeds planted. Funny how motivated I find myself in the time before ovulation...

HeyJupiter · 20/02/2017 10:04

Oops not sure why that double posted!

HeyJupiter · 20/02/2017 10:02

Haha nips is a winner of a username - please please can we call you that?

Oh Hb yay for CD1, exciting times, you may have your results by the end of the week, hope they process them quickly. Urgh hangover here for sure. DH less panicked now I've told him to pretend we're in an episode of Downton Abbey. He knows what he's doing now (although I had to beg him not to ask for some tomato ketchup at breakfast..not sure it's that kind of establishment!)

wiggley and buzz definitely on board with renewed weight loss efforts! I'm getting back on it from Wednesday. We can do this!!

Grumpy that all sounds very promising. Enjoy the bathroom designing :)

Wiggleyfingers · 20/02/2017 09:58

Okay Buzz lets use each other as motivation! I have just over a stone to lose, do you think that's unrealistic? 2lbs a week...WE CAN DO THIS!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 20/02/2017 09:43

Trying NOT to! I mean

TheGrumpySquirrel · 20/02/2017 09:42

I'm trying to to get too hopeful but I still feel dizzy and nauseous.. very weird!

buzzmoon · 20/02/2017 09:39

wiggly im the same!! My reality is I'm the same that I was before Christmas and still got a stone to go!! Eek help! We can do this!!

Fully up for using nips moving forward 😂

confused hope everything is okay ❤️

Wiggleyfingers · 20/02/2017 09:17

I have had a harsh reality check this morning when I realised I have a dress fitting in 8 weeks and I haven't lost any of the weight I intended to! In fact, I've put 2lbs on. So not good!! Must move more. Must eat less! Damn my chocolate, wine and cheese addiction!

Confused where are you?!
Sad hope you're okay!
Mummy those signs sound very promising!
Thanks Parsnips for creating a new shiny thread! (I almost shortened your name to Nips before realising that's probably a little bit inappropriate!)

TheGrumpySquirrel · 20/02/2017 09:06

Bloated and bored over here 6dpo.. distracting myself with bathroom redesign 👍🏼

Hope you are ok confused?

HbH04 · 20/02/2017 09:04

Morning ladies!

Thanks for the new thread parsnips .... glad to hear you're on the up!

Thinking of you today confused hope all goes well!

Hope you've miraculously escaped a hangover jupiter !!

I should be CD1 today, hopefully my first actual active cycle! Exciting!

(Four is my favourite number so hopefully get lucky in thread number four!)

buzzmoon · 20/02/2017 08:55

Wahay thread number 4! Where's seven for our update 😏

Mummyme87 · 20/02/2017 08:32

I know it's early still for testing so not overly disappointed. I'm still getting pelvic twinges/aches/cramps/pain which is all very unusual. I have right pelvic pain now... well AF is due on Thursday so either way I'll no pretty soon!

TheGrumpySquirrel · 20/02/2017 08:28

Placemarking!

HeyJupiter · 20/02/2017 08:21

Yay new thread, thanks parsnips

So sorry about BFN mummy but it is early days and implantation could have happened later (or still to happen!) Will cross fingers for Wednesday.

How are you getting on confused? ❤️

Tigger83 · 20/02/2017 08:13

How exciting new thread Smile
