Hi girls as you already know I go to my weigh in class on Friday's and this week I only lost 1 lb so not as good as I expected,never mind the little cherubs finish school to-day so I'll be walking all next week most probably,so
that will be helpful I hope,up to now lost 1st 13lbs,but a guy who started
with us 12weeks ago has lost 18kgs(how much is that in English)and he looks
great.

I'm yet another one confessing to staying the same as last week. I'd like to continue as I feel that the weight previously lost will only go back if this thread collapses. It's such strong support to all of us and I will try harder - promise

Glad you enjoyed the wedding Revis. your Autumn break will be something to work towards.

helshea Wed 13-Jul-11 22:44:18

I believe it .. I can put on half a stone in a week without any problem at all.

Revis Wed 13-Jul-11 20:24:13

Can't believe it - have been away for 4 nights and put on 5lbs!!! shock I blame the superb meals at The Tempest Arms in Yorkshire, where we went for a wedding. The trouble is we loved it so much we will probably go back again for an Autumn break so am going to have to work really hard to get back on track. I HATE lettuce!!! sad

NanaAnna no your not too late, come and join us smile, welldone lucid

Overall I think we have all done well wink and you should all give yourselves a pat on the back.

Thanks everyone!

Lovely photos glass!
So glad to hear that everyone's still carrying on. It's only the company on here that's making me stick to it. smile

Just returned from a very sunny Argyll....weighed myself this morning with trepidation and although no weight loss I haven't put any on either. RESULT. grin

NanaAnna Wed 13-Jul-11 13:25:21

Am I too late? Or can anyone join?

GillieB Wed 13-Jul-11 13:13:13

I, too, will be carrying on (I have such a long way to go). I very naughtily stepped on the scales this morning and discovered that the remains of the Chinese meal had gone and I have now lost six lbs, so I am feeling encouraged again. However, my husband and son are cycling the C2C over the next three days and my son's fiance and I are joining them in the evenings and staying with them, so I am hoping that I do not sabotage myself.

Glass - I agree, lovely photos. Your "new" house looks very typical of Northumberland.

Fab photos glass,looking good girl

GoldenGran Wed 13-Jul-11 08:39:02

glassortwo, I am definitely carrying on. I am a long term yo-yo dieter, and this forum has focussed my mind. I have been losing , and gaining, the same stone for fifteen years. I have just lost it again, and am determined to lose another one and keep it off. And I think this forum will get me through. So thanks for enabling me to do it. smile

Annobel Wed 13-Jul-11 08:34:24

Slip of the fingers there. I mean 'a long term view'.

Annobel Wed 13-Jul-11 08:33:02

You bet glassortwo. Even if I don't lose much more, I'm taking along-term view and still determined to prove a point.

glassortwo Tue 12-Jul-11 22:49:55

I also stayed the same which is a a godsend, are we all carrying on?

GrannyK Tue 12-Jul-11 15:42:21

I am yet another one who has stayed the same this week , but I am trying to stay very positive about it - it still means a 5lb loss overall since I started and I will be wearing my cream silk trousers to Glyndebourne tomorrow . That wasn't a (comfortable) option last year - so yippee!!!!! And I do have another month until my friends wedding, so just need to stay focused.......

Hi everyone, goldengran well done 1lb. gilly even a small loss is a loss so well done. I have not been weighed yet but have the feeling I will be in the same boat as the rest of you, but on we go again tomorrow. I will let you know later when I get weighed, I have posted a photo in my profile from yesterday if you all want a look.

GoldenGran Tue 12-Jul-11 13:41:48

Have lost a pound, am surprised and pleased! Ten days ago I had a wedding weekend-my goddaughter, and I ate and drank everything! Am back on track. Thanks Gransnet, will be concentrating this week!smile

coastwallker Tue 12-Jul-11 06:42:21

We're not doing so well this week are we. Ah well, it happens.
I'm up a pound but am not fretting as I am still working through the thyroid medication jungle. At least by keeping to the diet I am not putting on silly amounts

goldengirl Mon 11-Jul-11 21:30:26

I was away from home last week and eating a 3 course meal each evening - though I tried to make healthy choices. Luckily, with walking around a lot, I've stayed the same - again! That's 3 weeks in a row. I really must make more effort but it's hard if nothing moves sad. Thank goodness for Gransnet - it keeps me going.

Soupy Mon 11-Jul-11 19:45:32

Me too. Stayed the same this week bit I know I've been cheating!

nannym Mon 11-Jul-11 10:03:09

I'm another one who hasn't lost an ounce this week. Feel really cheated as I've been soooo good too! Maybe will have to up the exercise this week. sad

glammanana Mon 11-Jul-11 09:25:57

I didn't get weighed on Friday I had to go somewhere else but I'm guessing
maybe 1lb,I don't get weighed at home I threw out the scales or I would be on them every day I will have to WEIGHT until Friday,but now weather good will
carry on with the walking every day seems to help
