Sending best wishes BOOP - glad all is well.

Not seems to be missing in action too - I haven't seen her at all this week, since I've been back.

Sending you and your DD best wishes Flowers

Flowers for you boop. How frightening Sad

Flowers BOOP

Today so far has been a total disaster of a carb fest. Work deadlines and no gym. I need to get on it again this weekend as I want to be my happy weight for when I go on holiday start of June.

HairsprayBabe · 27/04/2018 07:53

9.7
Only really vaugely being good.
Yesterday had scrambled eggs with jalapenos for breakfast a skinni extra dry sugarfree venti cappuchino for lunch
Then a bunless burger, and a salad with chip pan chips for dinner....
Then we went to the cinema and split a bag of toffee popcorn, and some mini peanutbutter kitkats.

But down 2lbs? V. Confusing, how do diets work please?

twinkledag · 27/04/2018 08:19

I wish that diet worked for me @HairsprayBabe Wink

Down another pound so that's 5 since I restarted. Smile

SesameSparkle · 27/04/2018 08:46

I'm still a smidgen over 9-13 this morning, so counting that as 10 due to rounding. Really really want to drop that fraction and move properly into the 9s.

Boop hope your dd will be okay. Flowers

QuimReaper · 27/04/2018 09:16

I quite fancy that diet Hair, please can I do that and lose 2 Lindas?

I've lost... 100g.

THIS IS SO. BORING.

400 above target still, and I was hoping to be a whole kilo under it by the time I went on holiday. Sad Balls.

QuimReaper · 27/04/2018 09:20

Well done twink, 5lbs in one week! Amazing!

twinkledag · 27/04/2018 10:44

5lbs in 11 days Smile

Namajesty · 27/04/2018 10:50

Think that's brilliant I hope the big loss has spurred you on Smile

BOOP kids really do live just to give us heart attacks don't they. Glad she is fine and I hope you've had time to rest and get some sleep back. Since having babies I have nearly shat out my own organs through stress a million times Grin

I am down another 3 Linda's since I last weighed. To be fair life kind of got in the way and I haven't calorie counted or been very strict with myself. I am now currently 12.2. Could have very easily been in the 11's. Glad it's not a gain, and I'm focused now to get back on track. It's annoying me knowing that if I had calorie counted and done exercises I would be way lower!

Namajesty · 27/04/2018 10:51

And of course that should be twink Grin bloody auto-never-correct

BitOutOfPractice · 27/04/2018 11:00

Hey good morning and well done in the losses hairspray, twink, Quim and maj!

I'm not even thinking about weighing now. It's been too bonkers a week.

Date through for dd1's MRI week after next. Of course it's a day I'm away in business and as I'm giving a paper I can't get out of it. But, as dd reminded me, she does have two parents so her dad is taking her. I feel a bit shit about that though.

I’ve just had an offer on a house accepted... calories in prosecco are surely exempt for tonight?

Hoolahoophop · 27/04/2018 16:03

Oh Boop how scary. I bet there won't be much diet damage, stress really does burn calories. I hope the mri goes well. I totally understand you wanting to be there. If it helps dd has had an mri and it was probably one of the least traumatic (unless your claustrophobic) it's the results she will need you for and I presume you will have to wait for those. Sending Flowers

Hoolahoophop · 27/04/2018 16:08

Congratulations Lasty definitely a free pass to celebrate tonight.

Isn't it just boring Quim thought I was doing well but lost a pittance, not even a Linda.

I want hairsprays diet sounds lush and works Shock

Sounds good to me Twink and Nama

twinkledag · 27/04/2018 20:44

Congrats @lastqueenofscotland! Definitely deserve prosecco.

Grin
IheartCaptainHolt · 27/04/2018 20:46

Dropped off the thread! 1.5lb on this week but reduced bfing DS2 so only doing two feeds a day now and the dreaded AF returned this week so milk filled boobs and period bloat is to blame I recon.

SesameSparkle · 28/04/2018 09:31

Finally dropped below 9-13 this morning, so that looks like I've got rid of 5 lindas during April. Smile

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

twinkledag · 29/04/2018 12:51

Has a day off plan but back on it today - just has scrambled eggs for brunch. May attempt a run later!

poorpaws · 29/04/2018 21:38

So April was the month I was going to do it! Great determination and nothing was going to stop me.

I gained 3lbs.

May is the month, nothing is going to stop me .
