Crikey Chard. Sounds terrible.

Boop well done 11st 1 that's amazing. I've done terribly to say we were weight twins!!!

Hairspray my target is 10st 4. I'm 5 6. Ideally a bit below that for blow outs but I've felt good at that weight previously. X

HairsprayBabe · 27/04/2017 20:46

Same thoughts here pebbles and I am 5ft6 too.

One of my threads just got put in classics I am Shock this may be the peak of my MN career 😂

BitOutOfPractice · 27/04/2017 21:16

Chard you poor thing!

This is my dress: www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_60514+FFN0045091_-1

I am currently size 14, but I had to order a size 16 in this to accommodate my matronly massive bosom, and am getting it taken in.

Goodness Emma, you must be very keen on that site. Since you registered today you've posted on 11 threads today and on 6 of them you've referred readers to it.

QuimReaper · 28/04/2017 00:11

I had a pretty good day here - good fasting and over 14K steps! I'm still not sure whether I'm brave enough to weigh in tomorrow...

Archduke · 28/04/2017 05:30

Sitting at work bored and hungry.

Here is a shot of rainy outdoors. Told you I'm bored.

Am down 400gms this week - am running my first 10km race on Sunday and need to be at racing weight Grin

Pony that dress is lovely.

Up 2.2lindas this month Sad why am i such a fatty. I'm hoping WW will see me for a decent loss in May.
I do feel I'm more in the zone this week and stayed the same which is good considering i ate out three times.

When I get home would you lovely people give me an opinion a dress if I post a photo. A wedding on Sunday so have this afternoon/evening and all day tomorrow to get something else if it's awful. I am after brutally honest opinions... I think Confused

Second month that we haven't needed a new thread.

BitOutOfPractice · 28/04/2017 07:16

I think May will be busier as people realise that summer is almost upon us!

BitOutOfPractice · 28/04/2017 07:17

I'm actually 4 lindas down for April which I'm quite amazed by!

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 08:02

Just a nonsense one from AIBU about people who comment before reading the OP.

Currently at a new low 10.9 so also -4lbs my final weigh in for the month will be tomorrow morning as we are off to london and I won't be able to weigh myself till I get back on Monday. With that weigh in I have broken the 4.7lbs barrier, and lost 30% of my overall starting weight!

Unlikely I will see off 3 more lbs over night Grin but I am happy with an overall loss for the month as I was really struggling just last week!

Yes I think the earlier months were filled with people bright with new years resolutions, so filled up a bit faster.

lastqueenofscotland · 28/04/2017 08:09

Hairspray I'm off to London as well this weekend!

Have a lovely time :)

I'm remarkably down 4 for the month which I'm chuffed with. Still not quite at my Feb lowest which was assisted with starvation caused by wisdom tooth removal. Hoping I can squeeze one in for Monday.

Gone at it like a mad thing last 10 days so will relax a bit on Monday and finish of my Easter chocolate!

BitOutOfPractice · 28/04/2017 09:31

I won't be weighing in again this month as I'm off to Barcelona!

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 09:34

Are you going today BOOP?
Enjoy the sun, I have forgotten what it is like!

TVHubbyClaire · 28/04/2017 09:37

I'm back up to 12st 11 this morning, egg, beans and toast and home made fudge and brownies totally blitzed any benefits of an hour's badminton last night

Beer tomorrow too so not looking good for a wegh in on Monday, all my mid week optimism seems to have deserted me again.

Going to try and run tonight now that its two weeks until my 10k and walk tomorrow to at least get 10,000 steps in before pub.....

I am exactly the same 11st 5. I need to move more and find the time to do this - grrrr

Well done Hairspray - enjoy London and you Last.

TV - Minor blip - you see.

See straight back into it Quim Grin

Squiffy May can be our month, please do post a picture later X

Lovely dress Pony - I struggle with dresses due to boobage - worse problems in the world I know but would love to be a nice c cup!

Arch - I am at work to and bored, have loads I could be doing at home, or walking or at the gym I cant go to as I never have time Hmm

Keepon I want to know the secret too!

I am on weekend damage limitation.......... oh and two weeks of having salad at work is getting really dull.

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 10:15

That is a good question KOKO I wouldn't bloody bother asking anywhere on MN though as you will only get 100s of replies saying people just eat whatever they like and never gain so you must not be counting calories properly or gorging in secret and not writing it down.

HairsprayBabe · 28/04/2017 10:17

Pebbles could you swap to soup instead of salad for a bit of a change?

What is in your salads how can we help you make them more fun... well as fun as any salad can be Grin

readyforsunshine · 28/04/2017 10:24

10.9 this am for me, will be my last weigh in as I'm en route to France. It's a loss but can't quite remember where I started, I've been bobbing between 10.10 & 10.13.
hairspray loved your other thread, had a good giggle!
pony you ve done amazingly well to go from 20-14, I'm sure you'll look gorgeous in your new dress. How lovely that your family all get on so well post divorce too.
Shall we take bets on which of us will gain the most on our various bank holiday trips? Grin love Barcelona boop have you been before?
Deff show us à pic squiff i really need a new wardrobe if I'm not going to slim back into my old one, I was really scrabbling around for things to pack!
