New week, new thread.

Folks I am so sorry, I'm so awful at keeping up with all the posts at the moment!

Huge congrats Agalch, I wish you a long and happy life together.

Weighed in this morning and have regained 3.75lb, prety bad but after a week of Glasgow fry-ups and easter eggs I guess it coulda been a lot worse.

DH is on leave at the mo before he deploys to the sand-pit, so not getting online as frequently as I once did, will be a more regular poster once he's off doing his thing.

Yes - you're absolutely right Sue - I definitely need a kick up the backside to make me make a fresh start .

Welcome back, whoopsfallenoveragain. I'm seriously impressed with your 50 lengths.

Jackie I was pleased with it I only set out to do 30! may reach a mile next time!

coppertop · 12/04/2007 23:31

Is there something in the air? I wanted to ask if it was okay to sneak back in and join you all again, and I see I'm not the only one. I haven't put all of the weight I lost back on (well not quite anyway ) but would like to start again if possible?

JackieNo · 13/04/2007 09:27

Hi coppertop. I think maybe there are a whole load of us who have, um, lapsed a bit, so go for it - lovely to see you back.

New starts all around ... I'm glad I'm not the only one

Lovely to see you here again, CT.

OK people - I'm working out the list of weights - how do the 'new start' people want to play it? Are we taking this as week zero, ie, taking our current weights as our new starting weight and counting from there in future, or am I keeping the running total from the past going? I'm counting 'new start' people as me, WWB, Sue, coppertop and whoopsfallenoveragain - have I missed anyone? Let me know what you want to do. I've also got weights from eeyoreisfab, littlemisssensible, Fauve (who looks like she's going to get this week's crown) and ForcesSweetheart.

I'll start with my weight as it is now or I might get depressed with what my weight was when I stopped (Can't even remember what it was )
I get weighed on a Tuesday morning so will go with that weight if that's ok

JackieNo · 13/04/2007 14:33

Sounds good - thanks for that. Anyone else around?

OP posts:
coppertop · 13/04/2007 15:02

Thanks for the welcome back.

I weighed myself on Wednesday so will use that as my starting weight and then have next week as week 1 IYSWIM.

ChipButty · 13/04/2007 19:51

I'm back! (used to be TitianRed). Please remind me of the weigh in day - can't remember if it's Tuesday or Wednesday. Nice to see some familiar names still around.

JackieNo · 13/04/2007 20:00

Hi ChipButty - welcome back.We've changed, so weigh-in day is now a Thursday.

(Just waiting to sort out new start people, and I'll post a list of weights this evening, or sue can do it if she gets there first)

OP posts:
JackieNo · 13/04/2007 22:39

OK - finally the weights - I'm putting just those who aren't going to be 'new start' people:

Eeyoreisfab: -2 (total -20.5)
Littlemisssensible: +1.5 (total -4.5)
Fauve: -4 (total -16)
ForcesSweetheart: +3.75 (total -1.25)

And the 'new start' people, please make a note of your weight yesterday/today and start from there for next week's losses - that's:

suejonez
JackieNo
whoopsfallenoveragain
coppertop
WigWamBam
ChipButty

So this week's undoubted star is Fauve (is it all that running paying off?), and you get a crown too.

And the new thread .

ChipButty · 14/04/2007 19:20
