Yes, indeed, well done Diane. 1lb is great, especially as you were on holiday. Perhaps it's indication that your lifestyle has changed so rather than being on a diet, as such, you're just eating better and exercising as part of normal life. Well done, that's a huge achievement! I think it also means that when you reach your target weight you can be confident it will stay off!

hmm ok so today i have had:
1 muller rice
1 banana
ham, cheese, tomato sandwhih on seeded bread

..... 2 handfulls of malteasers (yes i know i know)

i have turned down the offer of curry for lunch though and other goodies at work.

i'm not currently measuring my weight as i'm doing a lot of weights at the gym, i'm currently being measured monthly by my pt. he's the only one allowed to do it (so he says) so i can report back how many cms/inches i've lost i guess! - my clothes are definitely fitting better and looser so that's a good start.

Hi Everyone,

I was rather shocked to get back on the site this morning to find I had a pm from our lovely Diane stating that she hoped I hadn't been staying away - offended in some way because of the "Budgie Smuggler" reference she had made about me. LOL - as if? - I can take a joke you know!! :mrgreen:

The reason for my absence is far less exciting and interesting than me taking offence at something - I snapped the USB connector off my computer's wireless adaptor thing by dropping something heavy on top of it during a long overdue tidy up session of my desk and study.

And...I'll have you know that my swimmers would in any case be more "Eagle Smugglers" than "Budgie Smugglers" :shifty: ;) :oops:

I've only been away for a few days, but loads of stuff seems to have happened whilst I've been incommunicado:

Firstly, Massive Congratulations to Anakin on her Exciting and rather splendid Baby Anakin News! :D o/

Secondly, Welcome Back from your hols Diane! ......And....Congratulations on even losing weight whilst being on holiday this week - Now that is darned impressive :D

Thirdly, Sorry to hear about your exercise problems Ms Thrifty :( - hopefully you'll find something that you can do without causing you pain and aggravating your injury.

Fourthly, Very impressed with your swimming achievements ClareBarr o/ , but I'm also sorry to hear that you are having some days where you are in pain. :(

Fifthly, Well done Biggins for your continued weight loss success and keeping up on the old exercise front. o/

Sixthly, Well Done Havingascreen for losing weight despite apparently doing little exercise and straying from the straight and narrow eating-wise. o/

Seventhly, Welcome to our latest recruit Aruif. o/

Eighthly, Well done on the gym upgrade Rawr! o/

Ninethly, Well done to Valda for your weight loss and tasty new menu regime! o/

Tenthly, Well done to anyone else who I've overlooked but who is also doing well! o/


Well I can’t delay any longer so I’ll just out with it. I've been rubbish this week again - Not much exercise taken - too much of the wrong food eaten – I’ve been almost bingeing some evenings before bed. No surprise then that I've put on three pounds :wall:

I’m annoyed with myself but it's not really worth commenting on now - it's happened! I need to draw a line under it and think about the coming week in a more positive light. I will lose those 3 pounds again and more this coming week (he said determinedly)!! :roll: :mrgreen:

And having said that...Me and two mates (yeah - there's even more of us now) did 12 miles plus on mountain bikes in the pouring (and I do mean pouring) rain this morning. I absolutely loved it! Never been so soaked through with rain and mud for ages. So that's quite a good start. Had a salad for lunch - again good! But rather spoilt it by eating the pain au chocolate with my coffee that one of my mates kindly brought along for us all. Still I've a whole week to burn that little indiscretion off! :D

Welcome back Preston - we've missed you! (shows what a sad lot we are ;) )

Losing weight is a see-saw game as one week we are elated because we have lost weight and the next we are down in the dumps because we have put weight on! :x

The trouble with food is even if no-one notices you eating the extra calories your stomach sure does!!! :noo:

You have lost a lot and can easily get back on track with all the exercise you do on your mountain bike. o/
