I am +2 today but not surprising after 2 nights of drinking before the weigh in so won't lose heart. Looks like tonight's night out is off again due to DD not wanting to go to MIL's so that will save a few calories...

Ha ha. Not venturing any where near scales! I suspect the fish and chips and shared cheese board was not the low carb option Blush

BibiBelle · 17/04/2011 22:18

evening all, am home. I didn't do too badly with the 6 days running to the toilet. I didn't manage to get to the gym due to being ill Blush and the lovely long walks etc didn't happen either however I did try to make some decent choices - except on the last day but if you look at the photos on FB you might forgive me Blush

have just emailed my lighter life counsellor as II'm considering starting back again [meep]

FjorgynAndHotWater · 18/04/2011 21:59

Those cakes did look lush bibi, I don't blame you Grin hopefully your upset tummy will have given you some small reward oin the form of a few lb off...

Not looking good is it Hmm six posts since last Wednesday Shock we will all be sacked at this rate. Still no proper exercise here but my excuse is another fecking cold and feeling quite ropey so might try and drown the germs with a large G&T and have an early night.

Well I have an announcement to make

I am going to LL tomorrow evening. I am aware it is not everyone's cup of tea/choice however I feel I need a drastic kick start. I am mentally prepared, have discussed it with the GP who has agreed to back me and I have some cash at the minute that I can use for this purpose.

This in conjunction with going to the gym and being more active shall set me on my merry way Smile

FjorgynAndHotWater · 18/04/2011 22:30

Good luck you lovely girl. I hope it's the proper kick-start you need Smile

1 g&t down but germs still alive. might have to have just one more... Blush

Ok, ok, ok, you have forced me out of hiding.

No real exercise this week, other than a walk yesterday. No chance for any either really and food has been horrific this weekend. Angry at self. Much better today and i am aiming to continue that this week.....

A very good friend of mine did LL bibi and it worked brilliantly. Sadly she ended up going back twice but still never managed to crack the change in mindset Sad. I really, really hope you can and we will be here to support the healthy choices and cheer on the exercise sessions to ensure maintenance is a success. Is it Day 1 tomorrow then?

Apologies for the cold Fjorn Blush. On the silver linings side, DD2 has had no appetite for weeks Grin

Hey Loti, well done on 1/2 lb. How are you doing this week?

BibiBelle · 18/04/2011 22:54

I did it before Crisp and managed to loose 2.5 stone before falling pregnant with DD2 Blush Haven't had a chance to go back between mum being ill/DD3/being pregnant etc

Tomorrow is just to weigh in and get my medical form but I've already spoken to my GP who has said she'll support me doing it again/checked my BP so it's just a formality.

It's all new and I don't have to sign up for 14wks it's just 4wks now and see how we go from there. Will let you know when Day 1 is Smile

CrispyTheCrisp · 19/04/2011 08:49

Yay for 4 week programme Smile. Although you are likely to need a smaller size dress for your weddings? Can you see if you can swap down one size at least as the losses are normally pretty dramatic no?

Inspired by coming back on here yesterday, i braved the scales this morning through parted fingers. Am +2 on last week, so not as bad as i feared, but i know i usually lag with my more permanent gains and losses. So with that in mind, i have shredded (Level 1 with weights) and had grapefruit for breakfast. I may even take my running kit to London tomorrow and see if i can get out for a run.

BibiBelle · 19/04/2011 09:33

I think I could just have it taken in Crisp but thanks for the vote of confidence Smile I lost 1 stone in the first week last time and then it slowed down. Am not aiming to shift all 6stone just a good kick start for summer with the weddings as a goal would be brill.

well done on shredding etc - DH and I had great plans for a walk with D this morning but it is TIPPING it down in true Scottish summer style

FjorgynAndHotWater · 19/04/2011 11:36

Feels good to be back on the thread Smile

Think I am +3 on 2 weeks ago but as haven't had a booze-free night since last Tuesday (Blush) this is perhaps not surprising...

Well done getting back in the groove crispy Smile hope you don't undo the good work with your vissitors. Have fun in the sun!

bibi 4 weeks sounds like a perfect kick start period Grin shame about the weather but at least you won't be tempted by ice cream Wink

Have been. Am measured. Am weighed. Am £72 lighter and ready to go [meep]

BibiBelle · 19/04/2011 20:52

tomorrow.

tonight am chowing down Grin

CrispyTheCrisp · 20/04/2011 18:49

How is Day 1 Bibi? I guess tough for a few days until you go into Ketosis? Stay strong Lady Smile

No exercise other than some walking and underground related steps. Banana & yoghurt for lunch, salad for lunch and low fat M&S curry for dinner. I may have to have a sociable glass of wine though Grin

Fjorny, are you feeling better and back in the HM vibe?

LOTI, oh LOTI, where are yoooouuuuuuuu????? There is NO hiding place and you know it Grin

BibiBelle · 20/04/2011 19:04

It's not been too bad Crisp although I have a headache now!! I am however, not sure if that is because all 3 sodding children are in foul moods/ D is shouting the house down/ I've been on the computer since 2pm doing some work and I got my period this morning. I choose to think it's one of those and not the diet Grin

I've had 3, I'm chucking in the water and I've my hot chocolate to look forward to this evening HmmGrin

BibiBelle · 21/04/2011 10:53

Day 2 here we got and almost time for a whole new thread ShockSmile

BibiBelle · 21/04/2011 20:16

CrispyTheCrisp · 21/04/2011 20:54

BibiBelle · 21/04/2011 20:57

J is sitting eating chocolate and I may well have to kill him [harumph]

CrispyTheCrisp · 21/04/2011 20:59

I fear any police investigation would track down that threat so you can't now.
