2011 Weight Loss Club: Super Sizzlers Slinking Sylphlike into Summer

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

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 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!

Cheers and cue the confetti!!

Well done Piste on your 2lb loss.

Ghost I admire you for giving up smoking and losing weight.

Well done on your loss too Trimmer, we are going in the right direction now.

Work is going well I think, there is lots to learn and I'm looking forward to feeling a little more settled.

How are you doing Blondes & Pretty?

Well done smalline, I could still beat you though!! Glad to hear that work is going well. ikwym about there being lots to learn, it's never the same every day.

piste that low-carbing sounds scientific, but I am the opposite, I like the slimmers' world diet because it has plenty of carbs! If I remember rightly you felt more energised after low carbing for a while. You sound hectically busy anyway. I am impressed with your knitting. I just bought myself a jumper today and I thought if I practised knitting more I could have the length I want and exactly what I want, probably better quality.

I will need to do more running next week - I am not too sure about the shred from Thursday as we have a plasterer coming in to sort out our ceilings. Not keen on him seeing my jumping up and down, grunting and generally looking a plank! I suppose if he starts upstairs I can carry on for a while.

ghost when are you wi?

pretty how did you do?

blondes same for you?

Bebe how are you doing? Also anybody I've forgotten.

we have all lost this week - yah :)

Am super duper excited about Strictly!! Can you tell? :o

Not hopeful for a loss 2moro. Only managed Shred twice this week. Am aiming for 2-3 times this week & Zumba on Thursday! Just had a roast. BUT only had a small piece of ham & 2 roast potatoes then loads of veg. Also had some peach cobbler, but had mostly peach & not much cobble!! Feel stuffed though! :(

Well done on losses everyone! :)

Day 3 level 1 done this morning with higher weights, 1 more day at this level then I am moving to level 2.

Had a lovely day with the family, an afternoon in the park, then a scrumptious roast dinner, followed with lemon sponge topped with lemon sauce and creme fraiche, in what we are hoping will become our new local when we move.

oooh, me too Bebe, I think the two who will do especially well are Jason Donovan and Anita Dobson.

Smalline, I've just done day 7 of shred with heavier weights I am glad it's over. I'm still racing you ya know!!

1lb off for me! Just done shred (Day3)

Trimmer - Think Harry from McFly will do well too, he has the advantage of having done the children in need one already. Jason should be good, hasn't he been doing musical theatre? So he must be able to remember routines & will be used to a rehersal schedule.

Hello,

I don't know if anyone will remember me but I was on this thread a lobg time ago! I left Mumsnet for a good long time and don't post anymore but my son is 4.5 months now and I'd like to loose a good amount of weight!

My name was totoros occarina.

I was planning on starting today but its blowing a gale and I can't really get to the shops to get healthy stuffin so will go tomorrow.

Last time I lost weight I joined weight watchers but my local meetings have moved from midday to 7pm and I can't get there at that time and other day meetings are too far, so thinking of doinbg the online version.

Will weigh in tomorrow.

Yes I do! I remember your name before the last one too I think Mostly those still here, started way back then, so you are amongst friends!! Hope you are well and your son is keeping you busy.

Stay and weigh

Bebe - I weigh less than you. Just an observation x

Yes but only by a lb, and your target is a lb less than mine...so we have the same to lose!

Hi Snuggly, I do remember you, were you Disenchanted then Totoros, you started the thread!

How did wi go? Good luck with ww.

I have started slimmers' world, and just had to eat a few pickled onions as I am very hungry and waiting for my jacket spud...

shredded day 8 here! Still low carbing and not feeling brilliant tbh

I am just about to shred, day 8. Have you noticed any difference Piste? I really don't feel like doing it at all.

Are you in that ketosis phase yet?

I've just done day 8, and now going out for a short run.

I am feeling a bit fed up today, when I gain weight it all goes around my middle

How are you all doing?

i rem you - you were dischanted :)

welcome back - we are still going xx

Well I'm sitting here in casualty. Have been for ages. DD has cut her ankle badly. She is fine, lurching from being fraught to being fascinated that you can see her tendon. It needs stitches they say. It's disgusting but not bleeding as much as I would have thought. She caught it on the bottom of a metal gate as she closed it and didn't realise what damage she'd done. I think she just thought she'd banged it v hard. She will be in despair when she realises the impact this will have on the rowing training that is the centre of her world. We are sitting here in minors and she looks like a giant surrounded by toddlers!!

Still waiting....

She was stitched then we got home just before 3. Up again now and glad it's Friday! Weighed in and STS. Am so tired. Zzzzzzzzzzzz

OMG Piste! Your poor DD! :( Hope it heals quickly & it doesn't interrupt her training.

Well done on sts. Bet you are cream crackered! No shredding today then?!?!

I've been a bit crap on the shredding front, it's just hard to fit it in when DD isn't here. She's being a bit clingy (probably coz she's tired) when she's at home, so can't even get her to play upstairs so that I can do it! Zumba was good fun yesterday, and I did enjoy it, despite being utterly crap & uncoordinated! However, my hip/pelvis has been slightly sore for a couple of weeks, and today it definitely doesn't feel good...sort of like when I had the bursitis. Desperately don't want that again as I won't even be able to walk DD to school & back! :( Bugger! Am ice packing it & taking ibuprofen, really hoping it won't require steroid injection again.

poor dd piste :(

wishing speedy recovery x

Morning all Piste sorry to hear about dd, hope she gets better soon How is she today?

Well done on sts.

Bebe hope your hip is OK and the ice did the trick. You're a monday wi aren't you?

Smalline/Blondes did you wi this week?

Snuggly hope your ww problem got sorted out (saw your other thread).

Well, I lost 5lb this week, but this was on the scales at Slimming World, I was much heavier than my scales at home, according to sw scales I am over 13 stone I don't feel like wi again on my scales at home so will update on Fridays according to sw scales.

I am focused and determined to lose as much weight as I can before christmas.

Not seen you for a while Pretty, how's it going?

well done trimmer

i didnt weigh on friday - was the last thing on my mind tbh as i scattered some of dh at sea

Hug for my lovely B x

I have run and shredded today and am feeling proper smug.
Am low carb properly and on a really good thread where people know what they are doing. I feel better with them rather than on my own as before because instead of always thinking what I had to leave out, they are coming up with proper meals we can all have, but then the rest have the carbs with it. It is a bit difficult because DD has to have a lot of carbs doing what she does,

Only supposed to have 20 - 30g carbs a day. I think it is like WW, you just get into the habit of it and then it just becomes routine. I've also got ketostix that you wee on then it tells you how far you are into ketosis. I am so professional now
