Monday 11th June Weigh in

Alison. I also have a stone, plus a half to lose by August!

and think how nice a little snack would be................ AlisonMA ???

The nibble mission police are watching you !!!!!!!!!!!!

Lost 1.4 lbs so still 0.4 to lose to be back to where I was before I went away and then want to lose a stone by end of July. Not looking very likely.

I do so agree that this weather doesn't help. Gardening yesterday which was good (and stopped me eating out of boredom) but today it is raining again. Then there is football as well so I sit and read a book and think how nice a little snack would be................

On the plus side I've just been out to lunch with a friend and behaved myself so feel virtous but am being taken out to dinner somewhere special on Wednesday so won't be able to resist. It was so much easier when I was working and too tired to go out in the evenings.

Well done jeni and sba keep it up.

notso no not me! Could have been the vic or Elizabeth!

Stayed more or less the same. Good luck to you all, though, and don't despair if a couple of pounds have foisted themselves upon you, you'll soon get it off again.

Right fellow-losers it's back to business.
Having put on 3lb at my 'unofficial' weigh-in last Monday following my holiday, I am getting back into my normal routine this week.
Weigh in yesterday = 167.8 lbs. Was 167 exactly prior to holiday (170 on return) so I am happy that I have lost 2.2 of my 3lb gain.
Back to the gym/swim tomorrow and sensible eating must be the new rule of the day!
Just wish the weather was better - doesn't encourage walking and also you feel so 'down' on grey days that your determination wavers doesn't it!
Ah well onwards and downwards (hopefully!)
Am going to start confessing all my sins again (ONLY dieting ones!!!) as that seemed to help to stop the nibble-missions! Been good so far today but it is only 2.20pm!
Good luck everyone!

jeni, did your ship stop at La Spezia?

Drove past there and saw a cruise ship anchored up that I recognised from Southampton docks, so I wondered if you were aboard?

I returned from holiday 5 days ago and had not put on any weight. Which was surprising, given the amount of pasta/cheese/salami/wine/pastries etc consumed whilst away. This morning, my 'official' weigh in day, I have put on 2 lbs! So it's eventually caught up with me, fair enough.

The delayed weight gain makes sense, but I don't understand why insect bites acquired in Italy, didn't start swelling & itching until I returned home. Weird!

Welcome back, jeni - I take it the food was excellent then!

Bad news back to where I started .
