Thanks chocfor doing that. I bloody hate nights so am eating my way through them

good one tom. I didn't look at the link TBH, and did wonder why post had gone. Hope your nights aren't too pants.

I feel tomorrow won't be pretty, but I will man up and take it for once.

Just watched Lisa Riley on Strictly and am feeling enthused. Must get back to my ballroom classes.

I made it to the gym tonight and it was hard work as usual. I am glad I went though and always feel proud of myself when I do go as I don't have anyone to go with me anymore.

I had a healthy dinner tonight (vegetable curry and couscous) but I made chocolate and banana cake. I haven't eaten loads of it though, there is some left which I am sure DC will happily gobble up tomorrow.

Good luck for DoD. I'm not sure if I'll be joining in yet. I havne't been following SW much lately, I am just trying to up my exercise and also not to gain. I took myself off the pill recently as I'm fed up with it. I hear people often lose weight when they stop taking it so I'll be happy if thats true. I also read that people get severe stomach cramps when they stop taking it, I can confirm that part is true

gain

Will post list after 8pm tonight to give anyone at late meetings a chance :)

How long do your meetings last?

The one I go to starts @ 7.30 and isn't over until 9pm. Weigh in is between 7.30 and 8pm.

I don't get weighed until tomorrow night, so will post on thread then!

Meeting is from 7pm but always runs over and never finishes till at least 8.30

My bum is always numb by then!

So is the weigh in from 7 to 7.30?

Groups around here start from 5.30 with weigh in to 6pm then image therapy starts. Then a second session from 7.30-8pm with image therapy starting at 8pm.

The group I go to has 2 sessions on a Wednesday evening 5.30pm and 7pm.

They last between 45mins to an hour. Weigh in takes place during the first 15 mins.

Then its results time for the group with a bit of a boost and advice.

Will post list after 9.30pm to make sure I have you all

Well done choc and huff.

I'm planning a better week this week. In fact, I'm planning a better run up to Xmas.
In the meantime, having a horrible run of night shifts - exhausted. Just say down having started at 830 last night. 45 min till hand over...tick tock!

Arh TDT my Sister does shifts and it plays havoc with her metabolism. You can only do your best.

Get a good sleep today

sorry I missed the list. was asleep as I couldn't sleep the night before and got up at 4am and did the ironing

well done on losses.

much more effort is needed here in the run up to christmas. Fact. I need to stop being so pathetic and manage "life" alongside eating properly.

I found using the online diary very helpful Ria

Sorry I missed weigh in, we were away on a mini-break (all very bridget jones!) I gained this week too(3.5lbs), not surprising when dinner on Sunday was a family bag of crisps a box of chocolate fingers and a 4 pack of lager between dh and I

Sorry, coming late to this tonight - well done on the losses, and those who gained let's make this week count :) Only 11 more weigh ins before Christmas... (or 10 for some)

I lost 2lb this week, am fed up messing about. I am still 8lb from target cos I mess about so much, I put it on, take it off etc - am fed up. Am going to do a for and against list - which I think will help me. Reasons why I want to get to target and reasons why I don't.... I think the FOR list may be longer!!

So food for tomorrow, breakfast, fruit & yoghurt, lunch veg soup followed by fruit and dinner is cottage pie with veg.

Well done on your loss FHF

Some whip cracking needs doing round here, think LBD ladies, the party season is just around the corner!

Hope a lot of lines have been drawn and you all back on track - that was me with my whip

Hi all. Just checking in after an eventful evening involving running round to my parents house in my nightie, and getting my dad an ambulance! Then driving my mum to the hospital and bringing them home 3 hours later. He will be OK, but lots of pain, and his painkillers are making him puke

very news on my uncle, he has the cancer in most of his bones. not sure what happens next.

very tired today and I'm afraid I will be relying heavily on the HUGE bar of dairy milk DH bought me last night (I meant him to get a small one ungrateful cow) to get me through til wine o' clock

10 weeks til xmas!!!
