Welcome one, and welcome ALL to our 10th Thread, celebrating the long haul that has been central to our successful weight loss...

There is certainly lots more success to be enjoyed, so stay and weigh, there is always someone on hand for support or to give a kick up the backside as needed Grin We are good at motivating one another that's for sure!

Passes out the champagne that looks suspiciously like wine, Blondes you are only allowed ONE!

Anyone out there? If so tell me to stop drinking lager and eating cheese and biscuits! Blush

Where are you all?

Smalline · 26/06/2011 08:48

I was asleep in front of the telly trimmerGrin

Well done on your 3lb loss Piste EnvyGrin

Went to see a few more houses yesterday, going to have to widen our search or seriously down size, we are about 20 mins away from Romford in Essex trimmer.

Sts this week.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend ladies.

Blondeshavemorefun · 26/06/2011 08:57

stop drinking beer and eating cheese Grin

bebejones · 26/06/2011 09:39

Sorry been AWOL! Just needed a bit of a break...not from you guys I hasten to add, just from thinking about food & what I can and cannot have!

Didn't weigh in on Friday, will do it next week & start afresh.

Had an amazing time at my friends wedding (apart from DH dislocating my finger...long story). My friend looked stunning & was just such a lovely, friendly & relaxed day. DD partied the night away & we dragged her off the dancefloor just after midnight & she went to sleep when we got home just after 1am!! Little superstar! :o Ate SO much bad stuff, but was worth it, coz it was great!! :) Didn't get any photos of me, and the official ones (which I saw yesterday) there are about 4 of me & I look bloody awful. Also a little gutted that we missed the big group shots at reception due to farting around in tesco after the service...but again, long story! Will try & get DH to take a piccy of me today in my get up, coz I thought I looked quite good. I just always look shit in photos! :(

Saw some pics of me with DD at Xmas last year & looked so skinny, just need to get my head back in the game & try & get back down to that weight again. (Probably just in time to pile it all on again at xmas Wink)

Sorry to not do personals, just had a lot on & my brain is a bit fried! Will catch up properly soon!

Oh, and in other news... It is a year today since my last major MS relapse! Sssshhhhhh! Don't want to jinx it! Wink

RatherBeOnThePiste · 26/06/2011 21:35

Fell off the wagon completely and utterly this weekend and had a fabulous time doing so Grin

Good news Bebe [understatement]

Back to it tomorrow and I'm giving blood. I mustn't forget this time Blush

Blondeshavemorefun · 27/06/2011 07:29

fab news bebe and asw pic on fb and you look great :)

ive tried to be semi good this weekend- only small amount of bubbly and cheese Grin

and chinese at 2.30am .......

SureSlimCanterbury · 27/06/2011 09:02

Hi all, hope you all had a good week / weekend. All been very stressful here. Dead dog, new puppy and DS smashing the keyboard of his laptop because he got sent to bed 20 mins early for being so rude. The the following day scratching marks into a freshly pained wall!!! It's been a long couple of weeks and no end in sight :(
I'm feeling a bit uncared for and used at the moment - at least the puppy love me, and doesn't take me for granted!!
But the good news is I weighed in this morning and have reach my goal - I was 10 stone 6.8lb Hurrah - I can start mixing my proteins again!!! ham & cheese yum yum!!!
Made a really nice spinach & Ricotta cannelloni but with no pasta, I used a low fat, low carb wrap and it worked so well!! so I made 11 portions and put 9 in the freezer :o

Might give myself a few weeks off and then try for 10 stone.
Have a fab week and enjoy the sun shine

GettinTrimmer · 27/06/2011 14:28

Sorry to hear that SureSlim Sad hope things get better for you. Well done on reaching your goal.

I seem to have a lot on my mind and forgot to wi today. Will do so tomorrow.

I think I would have gained this week Blush

GettinTrimmer · 27/06/2011 14:31

My geography's rubbish Smalline. Are you commutable to London where you are?

If you look on the property bit on mn there are some grotty experiences sellers are having atm, we have been lucky as property is still moving around here. My friend who lives in Cobham in Surrey is having no luck at all with finding a buyer.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 27/06/2011 19:48

Canterbury - sorry you are having a crap time at the mo.

How's the house sorting going Trim? Your Cobham friend isn't so far from me really. All in all buying and selling houses is such a pain up the arse. Smalline - you have my sympathy. But well done on STS.

Blondes - Am loving the middle of the night Chinese. You mad woman Grin

Well I remembered to give blood. Such a hot day, and there felt like there was no air in the room at all. But it was easy and Mrs Blondes says you lose a pound in weight doing it, so I'm thinking I might just give blood again before weighing in on Friday.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 27/06/2011 20:23

One last thing - my jeans that I've been aiming for finally fit me and I wore them on Friday. They are still a 12 but a skinny Miss Selfridge 12, the ones that are a skinny flare style, tight round your knee caps then a bit wider by the hem. I know they are still a 12, but they are a def a slim cut. I also know that I could lose another stone and still never really be a 10. When I weighed 9 stone I was a ten but I think post babies my shape has changed beyone recognition.

Any hoo I was pleased, I've had them knocking around for over a year Blush

GettinTrimmer · 28/06/2011 13:34

Congratulations on your jeans Pisty Smile

I also didn't wi today but will do so tomorrow.

I am pulling my hair out sorting crap, presents from party bags from when the dc were 3!

My class at school were wild today, we sent them in because it was thundering and a bit of lightening and they were bouncing off the walls....!

Blondeshavemorefun · 28/06/2011 14:44

well done pisty

and chinese at 2.30am tastes soooooooooooooo much better than at 8pm

RatherBeOnThePiste · 28/06/2011 18:53

Bloody well weigh in GT or I shall have to slap you!

Lol B, I only hope you didn't get any on your duvet cover Grin

Welcome back, love the new name Smile

GettinTrimmer · 29/06/2011 18:52

Oh yes Pisty, haven't been to that pub in years, but loads of places round that area for a coffee.

GettinTrimmer · 30/06/2011 11:07

Morning all Smile Where are you? I cannot focus until we move house on 14th July. Just had a cheese salad sandwich which is probably about 14 ww points!

RatherBeOnThePiste · 30/06/2011 13:20

I'm having my lunch already!! Two lovely muller light yogs, and I must say, I'm a bit over excited Hmm

After my last weekend, I have spent all week trying to get to a sts, so fingers crossed here..

Boxercise later, lets hope I don't get tangled up with my rope again Grin

yes looking forward to seeing you too pisty. Looks like the weather will be nice. thanks for updating me. You can give me a kick up the arse in personGrin

Thanks Blondes, the uncertainty is over now at least we know we are moving.

We have to start packing NOW but I feel bogged down with decluttering, visiting the book bank later with bags of toddler books/etc my dc have grown out of - but just had their reports they are both above average for reading, so all those acquired books and looking at them a lot has paid off!

RatherBeOnThePiste · 01/07/2011 22:56

Good because if Im coming to the seaside it needs to be sunny!!
