So stay and enjoy success, the support and the lunacy. There will be ups and downs, but we will do this together.

Hi all

I've not weighed in for a while because tbh I was feeling fed up with various things, not only weight loss, but I am weighing in tomorrow and feeling more positive.

I have just been for a run (slow lumber more like Smile) as am doing the race for life in Winchester with a friend.

pretty are you still shredding?

Blondes it is good to see you Smile I can vouch for slimmers' world, you will lose weight if you stick to it. It will work, the diet is basically cutting out fat and sugar. I am going back to foodfocus as I can't for some reason stick to a plan Hmm

also well done on sts Bebe and Smalline well done for loss.

GettinTrimmer · 30/03/2012 11:13

Well done also on 2lb down Blondes.

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/04/2012 16:02

Well done smalline

I was very bad with an Easter egg last night

Salad and fruit today

RatherBeOnThePiste · 13/04/2012 11:05

I'm not sure why, but I snorted a bit at the thought of B being bad with an Easter Egg, sounds a bit perverted iyswim?!

Still within my boundaries here, but just about to go on the lovely BIWI's two week low carb boot camp, thinking I might like to go back into the 9s for the summer. Also am back in boxercise from a week next Thursday, which I'm looking forward to.

As you know DD is a keen rower, and her school are running a learn to row course in May, this is then followed by 10 sessions, and then the second weekend in September the school is doing a sponsored row of about 80 miles. They are fielding a novice 8 of parents from this learn to row course and I am very keen! So I need to be fit and healthy! I think the first one is May 13th, no doubt I will mention it on FB Grin

GettinTrimmer · 13/04/2012 12:03

I wi this morning, have sts after the excesses of easter. last few days I have dredged some willpower up from somewhere!

Have some bns in the oven to have for lunch with chickpeas. Yum.

I am impressed at your impending rowing lessons piste! One of the major calorie burners. My Race for Life is coming up soon

Have 3 job apps in to work in libraries. Fingers x'd.

Anyone else wi today?
