Not good to confess so much badness at the start of a new thread so I'll save that for next week Blush

BlushBlushBlush

I have spent the last four days stuffing my face, hungry all the time, in fact I was panicking a bit and POAS Shock but I am just swollen-bellied from bread rather than a baby

I am showing my middle-agedness by putting every ounce back round my middle so might have to start hula-hooping or summat... Back on the wagon today and June is going to be a very healthy month. On the plus side I met a lady I hadn't seen for a couple of years the other week and I could tell she didn't recognise me. Saw her again today and she said she'd realised who I was when she got back to her desk but hadn't recognised me at first because I'd lost so much weight ShockGrin

Well done you three for keeping the exercise flag flying, you are all brilliant Smile

Intentions of gym and starting back on the LL again today but didn't have a second. Wandered round in trackies with skanky hair all day though Blush and have made enough cakes to sink a ship

Physio tomorrow. I promise to be good and try not to punch him in the face if he winks at me Hmm

AlsoAvailableSober · 27/05/2011 07:39

10.6 1/2 this morning. Not bad after no exercise (too much work on) and a pub night. I must try and fit in an exersazz today as I'm not sure bank holiday weekend (with 2 social gatherings) will be very scales friendly Blush

Hope physio goes ok Bibi. Please ask for someone else if he makes you really uncomfortable.

Loti, hope all your massive efforts are reflected in a honed bikini bod.

Fjorn, keep posting lovely Smile

Dh is only a pound heavier than his pre Dublin weight Shock. well done him Smile

luckoftheirish · 27/05/2011 08:46

Well done AAS and hurrah for your DHSmile

My dh has lost 9lbs since last wed ShockShock..his weight loss has now stalled which he is gutted about Sad

-1lb was hoping for more as have done exercise every day but hoping some of that is muscle [hopeful emotion]Smile

Gym again today getting a tad bored but keeping up the exercise til tuesday..

Hope you get time to get yourself sorted BIBI...

Watcha Fjorny Smile

FjorgynAndHotWater · 27/05/2011 09:48

I am amazingly only up 1.5lb on last week which is a fricking miracle considering how much food I have stuffed in and how little (ie none) exercise I have done over the last seven days...

loti well done to your DH. The first Atkins week is usually amazingly effective due to the removal of carbs from your body plus the associated water they hold on to but if he holds his willpower he should lose more, just not so quickly! -1 is brilliant for you, well done! Those last few lbs are sooo hard to shift (so I've been told Wink) and you must be v firm after all your exercise. Have fun in Spain Smile also Envy

aas you are still down (1.5?)on your pre-cabbage soup weight so very well done to you, esp getting weighed after a trip to the pub! VVV well done to R too Smile

bibi good luck at the physio today; hope you manage to fit in a bit of exercise too. Fingers crosse dyour next few weeks of LL will be as spectacularly successful as the last few Smile

Managed to walk past the chocolate croissants in Tesco this morning and have been for a swim before work Shock so finally starting the week with an exersazz Smile

AlsoAvailableSober · 27/05/2011 20:12

Fjorn - you are right, 1.5 below 2 weeks ago which is fine Smile

Well done on the exercise Fjorn & LOTi -i have failed miserably again today

BibiBelle · 27/05/2011 20:42

AAS me too but I fear have failed more spectacularly than you - am sitting here with DC in bed and DH away to work. Will I shred - will I f*ck Blush

BibiBelle · 27/05/2011 20:46

physio appt passed without violence and the twat bloke actually examined me this time Hmm Having DH there worked wonders apparently. He has confirmed that the strength in my legs is good, given me an excercise to focus on. Used a lot of wank speak which DH speaks fluently thanks to his degree [proud & dim all at once] and has suggested an excercise bike and swimming. I told him the excercise bike is on the list (it's an expensive few months and budget tight till Aug Blush) and swimming can start when girls all sorted in Aug. He was happy with that - hurrah!

luckoftheirish · 28/05/2011 12:43
