The thread has disappeared seemingly replaced by a biscuit!

I know - I've been trying to find it too - glad its not just me - worried I'd been excommunicated!
I've forgotten the thread's exact title but should we ask Mumsnet where it's gone?!

DoubleMum · 22/09/2014 12:02

Bizarre. We need to find Randall, she might know the title

Iamapplesnotcakes · 23/09/2014 13:05

Mumsnet are investigating. Let's hope it's lurking in the ether somewhere.

Still investigating..... Apparently it's disappeared to somewhere that requires tech skills to retrieve.

We live in hope.

DoubleMum · 25/09/2014 13:51

I am still hoping ...

Steel yourself for disappointment DoubleMum.

Because the thread was started in Chat it disappears after a certain amount of time and is irretrievable.

All those words of wisdom gone forever Sad

DoubleMum · 26/09/2014 13:55

Oh no!!!! I didn't realise it was in Chat though, that's why I was looking on here!

OP posts:
Iamapplesnotcakes · 26/09/2014 15:13

i think it was in here - maybe weightloss chat is the same as general chat in terms of longevity - or lack of it

Iamapplesnotcakes · 26/09/2014 15:16

i'm going to check back with HQ - having accepted their it was in chat answer I'm not so sure that's right now - weight loss chat isn't self detonating.

buzzybuzzybeeshoes · 26/09/2014 18:44

Aaaah!! Here you all are Chiefies!
I think the original thread was in normal chat and not weight loss chat, so has probably gone pfft now.

How is everyone?

juneybean · 26/09/2014 18:45

I'm here... eating pizza oops

Iamapplesnotcakes · 26/09/2014 21:14

I'm well thanks Buzzy. But not so good on the dieting front. 6 pounds up from my best and just fiddling around going up and down the same few pounds

I will Shred tomorrow. I WILL shred tomorrow. I will.

How's you Buzzy?

Dinkydoos · 26/09/2014 21:19

Heyyyyy! Hello you lot!
So.... 3 weeks in usa for summer isn't helpful for maintenance. Who knew?????
Have been 5:2 inn in a half arsed way since back but def half a stone needs to go.
Think the wine I have got right now is helpful yes?
Nice to see you all, how are you all doing? Bet Randall, lizzy and tea are all good as gold still!!!!

SylvsFatSkirtMustGo · 27/09/2014 18:47

CHIEFS!!!!

Lovely to see us all together (need a Randall shout out though I think).
I haven't been around since term started but have lost weight, I would be smug about it but it's simply been manic at work..too much movement and not enough time to eat rubbish. However, I've picked up a stinking cold and have been comfort eating all day so the scales will be tipping the wrong way again.

I really need to be slim quite quickly. I have a big party in December and will not be fat for it. Think it's time to dust off the Shred, isn't it?

I do seem to do better when we have a Chiefly Thread going so let's keep posting! Must get back on mfp again as well.

Apples, I hope you shredded today? Grin

DoubleMum · 27/09/2014 22:04

We definitely need a chiefly thread. And all the Chiefs. Wish you could tag people on here. If you could, I definitely wouldn't have eaten a large Chinese takeaway tonight. Or maltesers.

OP posts:
Iamapplesnotcakes · 27/09/2014 23:44

I did Sylvs, I did! Mostly because I didn't Thursday and Friday, and went out to dinner tonight so wanted to create a bit of credit. Feel a bit sick now.

If we can get slim for December I'm in.

Pass the Maltesers, DoubleMum.

SylvsFatSkirtMustGo · 28/09/2014 12:57

Maltesers arent that bad though are they....unless eaten in vast quantities. They are mostly air inside as far as I can tell! Besides, sometimes you need a chocolate hit (this mindset doesn't help my weightloss I'm sure!).

I will go on mfp later and see if I can point Randall over here. I need to log my food anyhow so today seems a good day to start it up.

I'm feeling loads better today...not quite fit enough to Shred Grin

Well done on your shredding Apples, I am impressed!

Okay Chiefs, let's get this losing back on track! It's nearly October which gives us 2 months before we hit December and the start of Festive parties. Time to shed this extra poundage.

Iamapplesnotcakes · 30/09/2014 10:50

I'm with you and your pom poms Sylv - tres motivational

Went to dinner at a friend's last night and after 3 lovely courses a huge bowl of Maltesers was produced and circulated. Well, I say circulated but it largely came to rest in front of me.

You may think you're full, you may wish to limit your calorie intake but faced with a bowl of Maltesers I challenge anyone to keep to their resolve.

Today is veg curry, satsumas and walking.

Iamapplesnotcakes · 30/09/2014 11:01

I've found more Chiefs! - in Chat - in a thread called

Waaah, a Chiefs. Where did you go?

Am unfeasibly excited

DoubleMum · 30/09/2014 12:26

ooh will have to pop there

happygirl87 · 30/09/2014 13:32

I have migrated from Chat. I have no will power. I am scared of Weight Loss topic and just want to cry and eat chocolate. ....maybe I'm hormonal?!

RandallFloyd · 30/09/2014 13:52

Hellooooooooo!

Here you all are. Phew. I need kicking back in to touch, Chief styley.

I am, as of today, totes back I'm the game.

20lbs off by Christmas, totally doable but I need you to keep me on track. I clearly can't be trusted on my own Blush

Iamapplesnotcakes · 30/09/2014 14:28

okey dokey, so this our home now?

and we're on the case of Randall and the Missing 20 pounds? [rolls up sleeves]

Sounds good

My target for Christmas is 12.3. Currently 13.5 There - I've said it now.

Am currently struggling to stay awake. Boring myself preparing a presentation for tomorrow - lets hope the audience find it more exciting than I do. Had a late night and food and drink last night and just want to eat today. Have had 2 (one just didnt seem enough) kit kats. They were on offer so bought a big pack - bad plan. I just eat them.

I really, really, really need to learn how to stop snacking. I generally eat good meals and I exercise a bit but snacking is my downfall. At work and in the evenings. Any tips appreciated.

happygirl87 · 30/09/2014 16:38

Have had an apple and soup....and some boiled sweets and a very small mouthful of cake Blush Jacket potato tonight, but at this rate I will be at work for hours and hours and hours and hours and there's a huge chocolate cake staring at me that some fucker one brought in for their birthday....
