PositiveAttitude you look FABULOUS. Well done!

Groovee · 31/05/2017 21:12

PA you look amazing. Well done!

Had 2 slices of costco cake and 1 slice of a tiny red velvet cake. No idea how to syn.

didireallysaythat · 31/05/2017 23:42

Silly question - can you just try different groups each week until you find one with like minded people ? I'm looking at groups 30-45 mins away so don't want to commit to a group I'm going to struggle to attend.

And is there any average length of meeting ? Ideally I need one after 7:30-8:00 but they all appear earlier than that. I have 45 mins lunch break but if I've got to drive 15 mins to get to a mtg it's going to have to be short !

Signing in to this lovely new thread. Thanks Lemony

pa bloody fantastic! You look amazing!

Weigh in for me in the morning. A good week has been had so I'm expecting a loss. Watch this space...

OrianaBanana · 01/06/2017 06:20

Good luck Groovester!

I've fallen off the wagon hard this week. I don't really know how to get back on it. Maybe gaining on Friday will do it Confused

BasinHaircut · 01/06/2017 08:27

PA wow! Well done you.

Yesterday wasn't really on plan as such as I'm trying to use up stuff this week and haven't got much in. But it wasn't bad, no snacking and still had speed etc.

Going shopping tonight as I need some beachwear for my holiday. Might see if I can get a few other bits too. Looking forward to it!

Good luck on the weigh ins today!

MinniesAndMickeysNeedCounting · 01/06/2017 09:45

Well done positive

Congratulations to em

Started last week so first weigh in this week, feeling oddly nervous.

ALemonyPea · 01/06/2017 11:59

Welcome Love and well done on your loss so far.

Minnie, I think everyone felt anxious their first weigh in as it's like the first test to see if it's worked. I'm anxious every weigh in though 😁

I cannot believe that both women in the photo are you.

You look fantastic and you are an inspiration to everybody.

MinniesAndMickeysNeedCounting · 01/06/2017 12:54

Lost 4.5lb and bought a 12 week pass.

Groovester · 01/06/2017 13:17

3.5lbs off for me this morning. 4 stone 13.5lbs gone. Hopefully get 1/2lb off next week for my 5 stone award!! Well done Minnie!

PositiveAttitude · 01/06/2017 14:23

Well done Minne that's a really good loss and good on you for getting the 12 weeks countdown.

Groovester Well done!! You are still losing large amounts each week. am down to 0.5lb - 1lb if am lucky!!

persian I can assure you they are both me! Grin It does bring it home to me how far I have come when I see that.

Just had a row with DH. I want chocolate!!!!! Now he has buggered off back to work and I was supposed to be having a relaxing afternoon, but I am so wound up! Angry

ALemonyPea · 01/06/2017 15:17

Well done losers.

PA, go for a walk, do not eat the chocolate.

Did, you can visit other groups each week as all the info is central, and once you decide on one you can transfer across from your original one permanently. Good luck finding one.

Well done groovester

LavenderRainbows · 01/06/2017 16:52

Well done groovester Star you've overtaken me!. I hope to catch up next week Grin
About 4 people at work commented on my weight loss today. They can't believe I've lost nearly 5 stone (neither can I! !) They asked if I had a before photo? I told them you've worked with me long enough! You've seen more of the 'before' me than I haveGrin they were very sweet.

Groovee · 01/06/2017 21:12

Awww Lavender

My Dd said she went through my FB photos. She realised what others were seeing that she couldn't.

PersianCatLady · 01/06/2017 21:25

persian I can assure you they are both me! It does bring it home to me how far I have come when I see that
You have done amazingly well, keep it up!!

ALemonyPea · 02/06/2017 09:28

Wet and miserable here today. Watching my friends DC and was hoping to be able to take them to the park. Going to have to try my hardest not to eat out of stress and boredom.

Away for three days, out to the backend of nowhere, with limited choices.. I shall do my best, and for once I flipping mean it! I ate slightly too much of my (on plan) chinese takeaway and felt bloated and sore and jsut horrible so it's right put me off any blow outs this weekend! Steak, grilled fish and salad all the way and all the winez

OrianaBanana · 02/06/2017 09:59

Half on. Right, this week I am totally back on it 100%, a couple of SP days, lots of walking, let's get 4 off.

Groovee · 02/06/2017 10:22

Having a panic about swim suits or tankinis for my holiday. With a G cup I never find thing easily or cheaply.
