[hotterpotter]

Here we are, thanks Cyteen for the excellent title although it's slightly false advertising on my part

I'm sorry dizzy I didn't realise you were going to a funeral. x

vg wow wow wow!!!!!!!
dizz hope funeral went ok (not refreshed so maybe you've commented, oops).
loti have a fabbo weekend!! enjoy the time off!!!!

if i haven't lost at least another pound i may throw the scales at someone! lol.

btw this is getting easier, i am experiencing hunger (whereas before i was never without crap food long enough to do so) but I am learning to understand my body cues a bit. I think [confised].

LOL at you all hiding from DH and his diet-breaking antics

Good to hear you are settling into it Albs are you still doing Saturday weighing?

Decided to go on the bike after all as won't manage swimming tomorrow. Only did 30 mins but was just enough to keep me in Lord Ford's good books

Good luck for the morning!

Oooh my 3.8 lasted overnight so it's official! Phew. dizzy and albs I wasn't sure what to put in for the eleven weeker so add yourself if you want to.

Sazz: lose 6lb
VG: lose 11lb
1: -3.8lb
Hots: lose 10lb
LWFH: lose 9lb
LOTI: lose 9lb

Woo Hoo VG, after all your patience it's so great that you have started this diet with a good loss . At least when you are in hospital after your coronary you will look ravishing in your nightie

Not quite so spectacular here but I have still managed 2.5lb down which I am very about. Just checked my chart and it's the most I've lost in one week since September and 5 weeks in a row with no gain . Just got to keep it up now...

Sazz: lose 6lb
VG: lose 11lb

LWFH: lose 9lb
LOTI: lose 9lb

Pots 2.5 is a fab loss! Gosh well done! I bet you feel great.

I did Pilates yesterday, I think I said initially I didn't think I was doing it right - well I think just the introductory class was a gentle one, because yesterday's was more testing and I certainly feel it up and down my tummy and thighs today.

Exercising and doing classes takes up an awful lot of time I find. If I had a full time job I don't think I could manage this. I mean you have to look on it as a hobby. I'm quite happy doing the stuff, I love it now actually, but it's the time which is the killer.

horray hots and vg.. i am down 2lbs!! well pleased with that and amazed what food focusis doing for re-educating me!!..

just an update need to lose another 7.6lbs vg according to my new scales...

reckon this loss may only be temporary tho due to this weekend jolly... see you all on the flip side and have a fab weekend xxx

YAY for loti! This is tremendous. Have I understood you correctly - you have 7.6 to go from here?

Yay Loti, glad to hear Food Focus is finally working for you

Have had a text from Sazz, she is down 0.75lb this week so we are all down so far

Good job too as I got myself a lovely red White Stuff dress off ebay, size 14 and it fits but could do with a little shaving off my top tummy for optimum looks

ah sod, sorry to buck the good work ladies but sod all lost here

been gym & fruit for brekker again this morning so count me in for 6 excersazz's this week

I have however lost inches off my bust (1") my waist (2") and the largest part of my somach (2") so does that mean I can stay please?!?!?

Not to worry Dizz, you have been doing so well a minor hiatus is only to be expected, and at least it's steady not going up. Anyway who cares when you are losing so many inches, that's fantastic news

I wanted some pounds off too though

Stop eating tuna toasties then

well done hots.

Yep still doing sat weigh ins.

vg hmm i'd like to say my target for 11 weeks time is 11lbs but am not sure if am set for disappointment if i lose my focus.....

ALBS - positive thinking

hots I thought I was ok as long as I counted them in, no?!!!???? and I'm not a tuna toastie fiend - was a mother hubbard and too long till pay day meal solution

thank you

OK -1 here, has been for a couple of days, so think that it is OK.

Still avoiding the food focus website, but suspect that it might in fact be very useful.

and well done to everyone for the loss (weight or inches) hurrah.

lwfh well done on your -1 . Honestly the Food Focus site is brill, it really makes you realise how many calories you are shoving in, quite a lot of them without even realising...

A quick update then well done all and dizzy I'd far rather lose on the tape measure than on the scales!!! 2 inches off the bust any day for me, please!
