Meant to say Yorkiegirl that Fabarooney is down the bottom sort of separate from everyone else as she weighs in kilos, can't remember if that was obvious from the spreadsheet or not.

Thank you for taking over Yorkiegirl! Yes, I'm still in - hopefully only for a couple of weeks. I've promised myself to slacken off soon being so strict and see if I can maintain the loss.

Can I say a HUGE thank you to Demented as well. Her emails and input and support on here have been a great motivator for me.

Thank you Roisin, it's been lovely because you've all been so encouraging back. Actually Roisin would be a good witness to my failing motivation as I have supposed to have been point tracking with her over the last couple of weeks and I've been terrible at it!

Yes can I still maintain/hopefully loose a bit more for while with you all. I definately still need the support. The last time I lost weight I got to my target, then promptly started to pile it all on again, this time it's for keeps! Plus no doubt I'll have some holiday weight to shift in a few weeks! to the holiday and at the thought of the weight gain!!!

Anyone know what the food is like in Fuerteventura? Please someone tell me it's all salads and ice cream is banned on the island?

Have had an email today saying that the email i have sent you hs been delayed for some reason, yorkiegirl, hopefully should be through anytime, though have managed to save your email address anyway, there was nothing important in the email.

Demented,
I big thank you from me for all your hard work. I know I would have given up ages ago if not for your example.

Yorkiegirl,
I promise I will try and mail on time

Thanks BR . I'm sure Yorkiegirl will be fantastic, I hoping for a huge virtual kick up the bum from her!

I was doing quite well this week until tonight, DH has had a busy day workwise (he works from home) and I have been busy keeping DS2 out from under his feet so didn't have much time to cook so he took us all out to our local Chinese buffet which was lovely, I had 11.5 points left and would like to think what I ate was within that but am probably fooling myself!

How's everyone else doing?

YorkieGirl
I am trying to get back on track and will mail you once I get my head around it. Don't wait for me to post the update though....

Just can't seem to get motivated to go the extra little bit which will make all the difference.... It's the alcohol at the weekend that's a killer!

Thanks to Demented for help to date - much appreciated.

harrassedmum · 22/09/2004 12:14

Its failed for some reason will send again.

gothicmama · 22/09/2004 20:26

I'll email you tomorrow Yorkiegirl ... I weighed myself this morning, but wasn't light enough so I'll try again tomorrow!

Cadbury · 23/09/2004 19:51

I weighed myself on my parents digital scales today and got 5 different readings, one after the other. I think I'd better wait to get my own scales that realy work before I start beating myself up over pounds.

I'm taking the same approach as roisin , I can admit that now!

roisin · 23/09/2004 22:05

Ha ha ha! I'm glad I'm not the only one. I must admit I've been slacking this week, not counting properly, and it shows. But I am about to join the gym - induction tomorrow afternoon straight after work.

I'm a bit nervous about it tbh, as I've not done any serious exercise for about 15 yrs. I'm fairly active; walk a lot (3m+ every day), and enjoy swimming - but nothing aerobic. If I never post again, you'll know what's happened

harrassedmum · 23/09/2004 22:41

Yorkiegirl i am having trouble getting an email to you it keeps getting sent back. Have checked email adress and sent my weigh in details tonight as im out most of tomorrow, hope it gets through!

harrassedmum · 23/09/2004 22:46
