Well done both of you!!! I'm happily away eating choc 🤣🙈

Well done losers and STS ers! I'm back from holiday now, have had a great week away! Have eaten loads, not all bad, but most of it!! Plank challenge went by the wayside too, so going to start that up again now I'm back.

Back on the wagon today, will weigh in on Thursday and assess the damage...

Welcome back owl!
Well, after apparently dropping a pound for the last 4 days it has mysteriously crept back on today (of course) so have technically 'stayed the same' 😩🤣 I need to give myself a shake and stop sneaking biscuits and larging up portions on the pretence of staying fuller for longer I think 🤔

Bummer for the STS diege. I've weighed this morning and I've gained a lb. Not bad for after a holiday!

Got this week and then I'm away again for a five day break just with the kids so doubt there will be much drinking involved. Probably ice creams though!

That's not bad at all owl, well done!
I'm away again in a few weeks, just me and the 6 kids 😝 so tempting just to enter holiday/crisis management mode and indulge....BUT I am back in my size 10 Whistles trousers this morning so going to stay strong!

Welcome back @OwlinaTree. A pound is nothing, you'll have that off again soon

Fitting into clothes is a result all in itself @diege!

I've stayed the same (again). On a happier note, I finished mt 13 week beginner exercise program and shifted up to intermediate at the end of last week. Just done an hour and burnt 600 calories which is impressive considering it's a gentler stretching one!

Sounds like everyone is doing ok considering it’s ice cream season. I myself have shed most of my ill-gotten gains (damn you clotted-cream-topped ice cream) and doing ok so far for a Waitrose delivery day so fingers crossed I’ll be in the 140s next week

Great news re whistles trousers and the next level up on the exercise - well done guys!

Hope it happens for you Queen I've learnt that I can't have ice cream in the house, it's a major weakness of mine and so I just don't buy it. It's easy not to have one out and about because I don't like it dripping on my hands

I usually end up with a few licks of the kids when I'm out and about, that normally does the job. On holiday I had a few though!

Hoping I can scrape off a pound

...can scrape off a pound tomorrow....
I've never been an ice cream person, but did buy some cones and a tub of the stuff for the kids the other day...My downfall was adding chocolate sauce to vanilla ice cream - now I have what my brain sees as a chocolate fudge sundae 🤣 and it likes!!!
In other news I have bought my wedding dress, on impulse, despite knowing that it's madness as won't be getting married until summer 2022!!! It is THE dress for me though, and only cost £200 in the sale (from Needle and Thread, via ASOS!) One other thing to factor in is that the only one left was a size right at the bottom of my size range (an 8!) so looks like I'm going to be on a diet for 2 years 😩🤣🤣

Ooh exciting diege! You have the dress!

Yes, the dress will be here today...or maybe tomorrow according to Yodel 🙄
A pound off today! A long time coming, but heading in the right direction 😊

@diege do you have a link to the dress??

Well done on your pound! I’m yet to weigh ...

Screen shot attached! Will be wearing with an elbow length veil 👰
Good luck Queen!

It’s amazing ! Love tulle.

Still in bed atm but building up to moving 😂

🤣 Get thee up and into those scales!
Yes, sucker for tulle here too - and blush pink 😅

Onto!

How exciting @diege! It's lovely. You won't be on a diet for 2 years you'll be maintaining and that's different

After staying the same for the last 3 sodding weeks I'm a pound down today! The next stone bracket is coming into view. My exercise is definitely suffering this week. Still done it but it's so bloody hot that I can't put as much effort in. I'm on a rest day today and hoping it may be a little cooler tomorrow 🤞

Well done mrssnitch! Same here, finally topped the scales in my favour after a couple of STS weeks.
The dress has been delivered a d is beautiful (pinker than I thought but happy) BUT I can't do it up!!! I still have a stone to lose though (and 2 years til the wedding 🤣) so going to keep it. Worst case scenario I'll get the bugger let out and a corset fastening sewn in 🤪

Well done snitch!
The weather is ridiculous. I was really slow on my stroll today. I did go for a run pre 9am yesterday and it was already bloody boiling - sweated out my pound I think

Well done losers! Lovely dress diege you have ages to get into it, and like you say there's always alterations.

I forgot to weigh this am, so I'll try and do it in the morning. Feeling very bloated with all this got weather though so not holding out much hope for any loss

How did you get on owl? Agree, this hot weather is a nightmare all round, though a lot cooler here today (North).
Must try and drink more water as intake has dwindled to a cup (or less) a day!

Half a lb on which I'm a bit disappointed with tbh, as been really good this week except the birthday meal on Tuesday. Was even good at the weekend as was on my own!

I'm out with the other half tonight for drinks and a meal, then off to Wales on Monday with the kids so not holding out much hope for a loss over them next couple of weeks!!
