Mumsnet Mamas Week 49

[Turkiegirl]

So who is still around then?

I'm still around you silly goose (obviously not lost my great wit along with the pounds!!). Sorry, but I posted on wk 48 accidentally!! I posted that the four of us who recorded weight losses last week have lost a total of 11st 2lbs (I think)!! Amazing. Lunarsea and you are an inspiration - well done!

I am in the middle of decorating - do you think that will constitute 'exercise'?? Mind you, I think I am starting salsa dancing this week (ooer) so that should help. Has anyone else tried it???

I am around but having been out socialising and eating and drinking for the last 4 evenings am unlikely to be recording any weight loss this week. MIAM I used to go to salsa classes, I liked it but since having children have not been. I wasn't very good but it was fun.

me still here ok have now lost 1 stone 2 lbs well done you guys on 11st!!

Hey - that's now over 12 stone now gothicmama!! Congrats to you too!!

Fennel - did you get the chance to dance with any latino lovelies (male variety obviously)??? I'm only going to be dancing with 2 of my sisters and my 11yo dd!! (Not much romance there eh?)

well I went to get weighed this week and I;ve lost half a pound. Not much, but its still a loss! Supposed to be going out again on Friday night with work, but not feeling terribly healthy so may well stay home. The meal we have booked is all deep fried junk, so I don't think I'll be missing much!

MIAM - sadly no, not in the UK classes. did get to dance with lots of latinos when living in central america though.

am thinking I may have to give up mumsnetmamas for a month or so as am not going to lose any weight in coming weeks. have a weakness for mulled wine and xmas pudding. and am not really in the mood for dieting over xmas - too tired and busy.

Aw Fennel - don't go! Even if you are giving the dieting a little break, it would be sad if you disappeared altogether - and it will make it easier for you to get going again after the hols!!

miam nice to be wanted. am a seasonal type however who usually piles on the weight in Dec/Jan/Feb and then loses it in spring/summer. so even staying the same weight over these coming months counts as a relative success.

Well I have 3 results:

miam 0.0 29.0
LunarSea -1.0 74.0
Yorkiegirl 0.5 35.5

Planning on putting Mumsnet Mamas on hold for a few weeks, will start a new thread to see who wants to join us in the New Year. If you want to still send me results each week, please do!
