Determined to be good though as weigh in tomorrow morning!

Slipped up yesterday. Very stiff from running, so decided to have excercise break of one day.

Friend came over, with chocolate, which I finished after she went home.

She has already lost all the weight she gained in pregnancy.

Back on track today, made a smoothie as a snack and did exercises.

Hot lemon in water is good for a cold... can add a little honey.

Hope you feel better soon.

weighed in this morning and a little confused!

On scales at home i weighed (naked and before brekkie) and i was 10 stone 13 lbs which was a loss of 6 lbs!

Then when i went to boots to weigh (as scales at home are not that great) i was obviosuly dressed and weighed 11 stone 4 lbs which was what i was last week

why such a difference?

So i guess i have to say that this week i have stayed the same at 11 stone 4 lbs

Target for next Friday - 4 lbs loss

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:07

forgot to add that i still hadnt had brekkie when i weighed at Boots

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:20

hey where are all you guys!?!

MascaraOHara · 19/01/2007 10:22

Have been in hiding due to being so ashamed of myself. weighed in this morning at 11.1

I would imagine the boots scales are inaccurate... can you weigh yourself on a friends scales to get an idea of which might be right/wrong?

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:23

11.1? thats pretty good and less than i weigh!!! What exercise/diet are you following?

MascaraOHara · 19/01/2007 10:29

No it's not!! I was 10.13 on Tuesday!!! oh yes sorry you might not know I was posting as CS further down.

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:31

Oh Closetslob?!

so when do you weigh in? Make it a friday then we can all be on the same day!

so what do you reckon then - am i 10 stone 13 or 11 stone 4?!

MascaraOHara · 19/01/2007 10:32

I reckon you need to get on another set of scales and see what they say

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:35

will try my mums later.

think im gonna call it 11 stone 4 though - i started the week well but then got a cold and needed comfort food. Also didnt exercise much.

Aiming for 4 lbs loss for next Fri

MascaraOHara · 19/01/2007 10:37

OK, I'll try for a 4lb loss with you.. starting today! lets do it

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 10:38

fantastic! I need some motivation

just hope this cold clears up soon.

GOOD LUCK XX

kittylette · 19/01/2007 16:42

hi mandy

didnt weigh in this morning as df got up with the kids and i stayed in bed and fogot

i think you probably weighed more in boots cause you werent naked, well i hope not

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 17:00

so which weight do i officially go by then, naked or dressed? Sureley there couldnt be that much difference between the two just due to clothes?

Hows it going btw?

yellowpoo · 19/01/2007 20:16

Hello

I am going for a birthday suit weigh in.

This morning I weighed in at home.... 11st 14lb. Steady she goes, but at least slowly going. It has fluctuated in the week, back up to twelve and beyond, then back down again.. due to clothes, water consumption, slippers, any excuse possible.

I am going for keeping it off and possibly loss of another lb or two next week.

yellowpoo · 19/01/2007 20:19

When they weighed my babe at clinic, they allowed loads for clothes so it does make a difference. Go for the same as your first weigh in. Your doing great on weight loss.

Mandymoo · 19/01/2007 21:44

thanks Yellowpoo - will see what Friday brings but will weigh on my scales as they are alot kinder than the boots ones!

kittylette · 19/01/2007 22:04

yea mandy, when i weigh myself i donr have jeans or shoes on, just my top or PJs,

its going well still

better today as my DPs nanna commented on how slim i looked so that gave me a boost

i aslso bought some slimming low fat cake bars, but i donated them to my mum as i couldnt stop thinking about them!! i wouldve ended up scoffing 5 and feeling terrible!

so im in a treat and tempation free zone again

not done any exercixe today tho - which isnt good, might force myself to do a bit in a minute...

ooh plus i went to try wedding dresses on (even though ive got one already - i just like it! - and i got in a size 14 dress - which was awesome )

hope your doing well

and keep strong buddy!!

how are you finding it?

Mandymoo · 20/01/2007 10:27

Ok weighed myself (naked) this morning and 11 stone dead.

So thats what im working from.

Target for next Fri - 4lbs loss.
