I'm struggling with my brother being ill! He's 18 and acting so pathetic! He started with a headache and feeling cold. Today he was sick. Finally convinced him that bed was the best place to be to avoid germ sharing! He's been babied so much as the youngest child, he can't cope without his mummy! Well, tough! I have 4 dc to deal with, he needs to grow up. (feel a bit mean though lol)
Dd1 is starting to feel rough to now! Ds1 has had the flu type cold. I really don't want it.

Hi all. I've been away from this thread for too long. I've been hiding from you all I think as I've been eating far too much Xmas Blush.

I got on the scales this morning and am ashamed to say I've put back a lot of what I lost so am now only 5lbs lighter than when I started :(

I'm getting back into it on the 2nd (the 1st is my dad's birthday and we all go to his house and have far too much unhealthy food - again).

I WILL reach my target weight this time. I'm not sure whether to keep going with vaguely following SW or to do something different this time.

Human sorry to hear about your foot, I hope it gets better soon.

Tortoise · 30/12/2012 22:31

I agree with that, must be man flu. It was the way he kept groaning as if to get attention! But then when I asked what's wrong, he seemed to lose the power of speech and just mumbled something. Luckily he's spent the afternoon upstairs.
Dd1 doesn't want to go to bed as feels too ill. Dd2 is still up because she's scared to sleep alone! This could be a long night Sad

I'm going to weigh myself Tuesday morning this week but will go back to Mondays after that. Smile

Hi didi don't stress you are still half a stone lighter than in Sep, that is a brilliant way to start 2013!

tort do you think it might be the noro? If so quarantine him quick!

Good point human maybe we should do tues.

Ok let's go with that then, for this week only we weigh in on Tuesday
Made it bold to grab attention!

Anyone lurking, come and join, it doesn't matter if you have out weight on, we have all had ups and downs, we have all had stress and illness to deal with but we are all lighter than we were and that was our aim!

I am going to say out loud that I want to be 12 stone by the end of this year so two stone to lose. My DH has just said he will get my nickname tattooed on himself I if do it. If that is not a good enough incentive then I don't know what is!!!


See you on tues!

Hello Festive, good to see you. 5lb is still an amazing achievement and you've proved you can do it once so you can do it again.

Makes sense to weigh Tuesday as it's a new start. Fortunately I'm not going out NYe as kids are so young so I won't feel tempted to drink or eat crap. I tried to be good today but a friend came over with cakes and biscuits and it seemed polite to eat them! I feel a bit sick now.

Checkpoint, very rousing. You're right, we can do it I will not be defeated by any more pizzas and cupcakes. My muffin top will vanish, I WILL go to top shop without being the fattest person there .

I will be expecting to see pictures of the tattoo when you meet your target (unless it's in a naughty place!)

I've just signed up for WW online. It is currently cheaper than SW online and I can't really make it to meetings. I even logged what I ate today and I was within my daily points allowance Xmas Shock. I'm going to be really good tomorrow although I am going to a friend's birthday party and will have to eat something just to be sociable, but I will not be drinking any alcohol as I'm driving.

Checkpoint I want to see photos of the tattoo as well. Make sure he doesn't chicken out when you reach your target!

Johnny I just want to be able to fit into any of the clothes in Topshop, I don't even care about still being the fattest in there. My first goal is to get back into the size 16 jeans I bought a few weeks ago and have only worn a couple of times.

I don't think it's noro, think he was only sick once. But he's not eaten anything today. Think all getting various symptoms of a flu type bug. Seems to be a lot of it around. Dd1 has a headache and cough. Ds1 had cough and felt rough. He didn't eat much for a couple of days. dd2 had a cold and cough and has been slightly off food. Just Ds2 and I to go now! Sad

Tortoise

Sounds like season of coughs ,colds and germs in your house .


Hope dx feel better soon

Checkpoint

warn your dh there's a lot of women who will be expecting see tatoo so better be careful where it is .

Since we're weighing in in Tuesday I can have my breakfast now rather than after .

My goal is to loose stone and half by Easter as we're away for a break and to get back to excescing once foot allows me . I will not be hiding under baggy tent tops this summer

We can do this ladies even when we stumble we can get back to it

Ha ha to slamming fist on table and waving it about! RRRAAAAAARRRRR!!!!

DH already has a mega tattoo that he saved up £1000 to get, he went to a famous bloke in London and everything so this will be a breeze - unfortunately I don't get to pick the place so it will probably be somewhere very obscure.

Mine will be huge and somewhere non flabby, maybe by then I will have a choice of where to put it! I already have a tattoo wrist band type thing tha I have to cover up for school so I have to be careful not to have it somewhere visible! (although every single parent in my class has about ten so I would fit in perfectly well)

Good luck tort, hope you don't get ill ?!

Happy New Year all, see you bright and breezy tomorrow morning!

Ah hello everyone! I am SO sorry I havn't been around. The husbnad is here until 6th of of January and then normal service will resume!
Rousing speech CCC Flowers
And Human - thanks for the ever dependable motivation and bloody amazing weight loss!!

I have most definately put on a good few pounds..and am still being very naughty today but am going to try and reign it in. Once husband goes back I am am back on it - all over it in fact.

However - I will not weigh until the last Monday of January so that I don't put myself on a downer about how much I have put on.

Husband will be gone 11 weeks. I want to be 10st 10pounds by then.

As it is New year - has anyone revised their targets for now?? xx

Omg! Omg! yesterday I ate like a pig. About 4 glasses of champagne, Christmas cake, pizzas, crisps, tiramisu. I stopped entering stuff into mfp when it reached 2000 cals at lunchtime!

Anyway I weighed myself and I only put on .4lbs in 8 days. So I'm 167.3 lbs. and still under 12 st (just). I don't know why my body has been so good to me but today and tomorrow I'll be chucking away festive goodies and then back on the diet.

Well done everyone else for still being here. It will be a happy new year because we are in control!
