Everyone welcome to the best thread on MN *

link to the old thread here if you need it

10.7 so back at last Fridays weight, so a STS week for me. Being good tonight and tomorrow, and might see my start of the month weight before I go to Wales.

We are having Kohlrabi fries, sugar free baked beans and fried eggs for tea tonight.

I also ate 1/2 a donut yesterday but it seems to have had no affect on my loss!

I lost a whole quarter of a Linda to 12st 7 1/2....lol

Positive is a quiet weekend on horizon, will walk alot and eat little I hope so who knows I may be in new territory by Monday
I think I started at 13st 6 and 2 more lindas will have me down more than a stone. I would be sooo happy

paws I meant staying on the thread

I've never been with weight watchers actually, I'm so glad it's working for you though. TV after the first 10 Linda's or so it definitely starts moving in quarter-Linda increments so I'd take that as a win! Two more of those and you're at Target #1!

Had a huge lunch so will just have a bit of fruit (and a gin and slim...) for dinner.
No running today but well over 10000 steps and did an abs workout too.

Back at the gym today after an embarrassingly long time! Off to meal prep for the next few days to help me stay on track

Good to hear a bit more positive movement from people. Me too, although I haven't weighed I have been trying to reset my eating (linked to that website too, keepon). Might weigh tomorrow if I remember.

Quim well didn't I get it all wrong 😊 Sorry. I always look on this when I'm too tired . Yes I'm hoping to stay here for tips (so many clever people on here). I've no idea how to maintain properly so will probably yo-yo for weeks.

So if it wasn't Quim who was wondering how to set their goal weight at WW?

Today has been a difficult day foodwise and I can see that half a pound loss slipping away from me. Also I got caught in the heaviest torrential rain I've ever seen (two hours I was out in it). I don't think my coat will ever dry out.

I hope everyone has a good weekend. We've got rain again all day tomorrow. I agree with Pony there is definitely more positivity in the last day or so. Come on people a final push for the end of the month.

Mooorning 10.4 back to my lowest low! Being golden today so might even hit the total 5st loss before I go to Cardiff! And finally -1lb for this month so far!

Have a good weekend Slenderistas! 💜

Well done hairspray!!

Forgot to weigh this morning as slept through my alarm

Yussss Hairspray!

I have weighed. No movement. Talk to me about the egg fast, please people. Going to try it for a couple of days. Was it 6 eggs per day, mixed with cream or butter or mayo (ie something high in fat)? And what about vegetables, free to add? Am I forgetting anything?

Just been to ASDA bought a size 8 top and a pair of cut-off jeans in size 10-12!

Today is a good day 💜

Hairspray! What a great feeling that must be.

I have started the egg fast and feel very odd, slightly headachy. Strange, given the fact that I already eat a relatively LCHF diet. Will see how it goes.

140 this morning!!

Maybe my dream of being back in the 9s isn't so distant

10.4 again this morning, almost dissapointed but I know I can't expect a loss every day 😂 off to Cardiff in a bit, will have no scales so won't be able to know just how far off piste I have gone 😨
See you on the other side!

There is still a week of this month to go last, you can do it. 😊

Enjoy your trip Hairspray.

Enjoy hairspray!
How long are you going for?

Back on Wednesday afternoon, so surely I cant do too much damage in 2 and a half days! That is only 7 meals ish 😂

So my position back at home is very much that of a guest who is being tolerated at sufferance. I have no privacy and my nephews when they visit go through my room, take my things without asking while my mum shrugs and lets them.

Other than that I dont weigh every day anymore, it just leads to obsession.

My blood pressure used to be borderline high but at last reading had dropped over 10 points and is bottom of normal range now. Only explanation of it is the exercise. Weird nsv there.

That sounds like something that isn't going to help you in the long term Niki.

Yeah i just realised that. After getting rid of so many of my belongings to move into one room.

If i leave a book or a magazine or any mail in the lounge it gets placed on my bedroom floor.

I have to store everything i own in one room. I am.tripping over bags and boxes everywhere. Even my pads and tampons she took out of the bathroom cupboard and put them in a carrier bag on.my bedroom floor.

I feel like crying.

How did it come to this.

But on the bright side i appear to have lost more weight.

Enjoy your time in Cardiff Hairspray!

Niki that sounds horrible and unwelcoming of them. I hope it's not too long before you are able to move out

Well my weight is still bouncing around all over the place, but luckily work is going better so I am over my small meltdown from last week. I liked the "one treat a day" idea so I am trying to be stricter with myself this weekend. Today's treat is a G&T Hopefully that will stop me gaining this weekend and I will be able to get rid of my gain that much faster.

paws that may have been me? I asked about WW goals a while ago.

niki that's sounds like an awful environment for you to be in. Hopefully it won't be for too long.

Sorry I haven't been on much. Not in a great place and also avoiding cause my eating is so bad. I'm in Italy for a week though so the eating certainly isn't going to get better it is so hot here. I do not handle the heat well - much prefer the cold.

Squiffy I managed to put on outrageous amounts of weight in Italy, on a skiing holiday so I was exercising about 5 hours a day.
I just have no self control

Im finding ways to spend all day out of the house.

No dinner last night as I didnt want to go to the kitchen. At least Ill lose more weight.

Money and gift cards with significant amounts of money on them are missing out of my room.

I hope they enjoyed their shopping spree whoever took it.

Oh Niki that's so nasty for you, I'm so sorry.

Squiffy yes it was you at WW thank you. Is your leader helping you through your rough patch? Ours is amazing and I love her to bits. I went to her before some years ago and then she left. There is a class at the top of my road with a different leader but I drive a few miles to mine instead, she is so good.

Had two meals with desserts out this week plus chocolate in between. Guess it won't be a good weigh in.
