Well done losers! That's great groovee, you've lost it so quick too.

I lost 2.5lb and got my 3 stone award, so I'm delighted with that.

Well done everyone, some really good loses and awards achieved tonight.

Tummy was bad!!! Blush Oh my goodness, it was bad!!! Blush Blush Good job I came home between meetings. Pre- explosion I was looking at a 0.5lb gain! Shock Anyway, it had the good effect and I got a 1.5lb loss, which, for me, is flippin good! Grin

OwlinaTree · 27/06/2017 21:03

Lol PA, hope it was worth it!

FaithAgain · 27/06/2017 21:04

Oh what a lovely day of news!

Hooray hooray Groovee! That's incredible. Great stuff ibuilt. I guess that's positive overall PA, I hope it settles quickly.

Em I'm delighted that you saw a flickering heart beat on your scan! I'd been thinking about you too. I found having an ice lolly settled my stomach enough to get food down when I was pregnant! Sorry I'm sure you're bombarded with advice!

NachoAddict · 27/06/2017 21:19

PA every cloud has a silver lining eh Grin

Groovester · 27/06/2017 21:23

Nipping in to say blooming well done to lemony and groovee - Awesome! Star

Welcome sazzie

I'm not on plan this week. Not weighing in. Will claw it back next week. Ho hum...

Groovee · 27/06/2017 21:31

Well done to all of us losers this week. We rock.

Well done Owl, so happy for you too!

Just had 4 celebrations at 3 syns each or maybe they're 2.5 syns each. I'm too happy to care 😂

LavenderRainbows · 27/06/2017 21:49

Amazing lemony really well doneStarStar you have been my inspiration on this thread. Please hang around!
Well done everyone else. Some excellent losses today.
Congratulations emFlowers

I weigh in tomorrow morning. I need 2.5lb to get my 5 stone award. I don't think I will get it tomorrow but hopefully will get a bit closer!

ALemonyPea · 27/06/2017 22:16

I'm not going anywhere, need you lot to keep me on target.

Groovee, you're in luck, they are only 2 syns each, have another one!

Thanks groovee, I do feel very smug! Wanted to get it before I went back to work which I have, so I'm delighted! Well done to you too.

Groovee · 27/06/2017 22:29

Ooh Lemony that's made me smile even more.

Tried on my top from my first day! It's like a nighty on me now 😂

Lavender good luck for tomorrow x

FaithAgain · 27/06/2017 22:34

Lemony and Owlina sorry I missed congratulating you!

Welcome to target Lemony! I'm still working on staying here. Maintained last week. Not a brilliant week this week, will see how WI goes tomorrow. I'd like to lose another 2.5lb to have lost 3 1/2 stone in total in the end.

Question - anyone else got saggy bits?! Blush My boobs are droopy (okay in the right undies). I have loads of saggy skin on my stomach! I am planking daily, going up 15 seconds per night for the last week or so, managed 2 minutes 30s tonight!

Groovee · 27/06/2017 22:41

My boobs reach my toes better than me without good support!

sazzie1975 · 28/06/2017 06:23

Everything sags Blush

sazzie1975 · 28/06/2017 07:01

So off to work with overnight oats and a ham salad and melon for snack. Got sausage for dinner with roasted squash and veg. Had a cheeky weigh this morning and sts so far. But I'm hoping to have had a little loss by Saturday. Did have a huge piece of carrot cake Sunday and have been quite picky over the weekend. But hopefully i can get a loss like u guys if I stay on plan. Have a great day everyone.

LavenderRainbows · 28/06/2017 07:28

groovee you look fab now in that new photo (and much happier) Grin
I've kept my old work trousers as a comparison, they are enormous! DH says I look like a slimming ad when I hold them up against me!
As for saggy bits I've got horrendous bingo wings, so embarrassing if I wear a sleeveless topBlush anyone got any tips?
I actually think it's just empty skins probably unable to be toned.

FoofFighter · 28/06/2017 07:51

Groovvee that honestly looks like two different people, you've changed so much!

To tone up you need to do weights stuff apparently. I'm concentrating on getting a good load of weight off for the time being, then will start the gym to tone up.

FaithAgain · 28/06/2017 08:11

Groovee it's a transformation! I enjoy following you on FB too.

I need to get back to running, that tones a lot. The planking I do is helping my arms, legs, abdo at the same time! I do have awful bingo wings though. I have a yogalates DVD I might start doing again.

ALemonyPea · 28/06/2017 09:17

Groovee you look amazing, so much happier and younger.

I have saggy bits, not bothered about my boobs or my arse, they can be boosted/hidden with clothes, my stomach however is awful. Three big pregnancies and three sections hasn't helped. I'd love a tummy tuck.

Good luck at WI Faith.

Thanks ladies.

I went out with my mum and dad for brunch and got waffles. The biggest portion I have ever seen came 🤢 I only managed 1/2 of it x
