    Thanks!

    To be honest not amazing! I think its more to do with me than the program though! So this week I have given it an honest shot so I'll see with my weigh in!

    Haven't dipped into my 49 though, how are you finding it?

    The most amazing thing happened this weekend, I have officially gone down a size. I bought my first ever size 12 dress yesterday :)

    It could have possibly been one of the happiest moments of my life to date, I actually almost did a dance in the dressing room :p

    I've shared this information with anyone that is willing to listen as I am so excited about it!!! WI again tomorrow so hopefully more losses.

    I don't think I'd even mind if I sts after this success :D

    My mum is really getting into the idea of starting veg patch next spring where we cleared 15ft or ditches and briars. Going to start treating the soil now, manure from the stables, compost, and coffee granules! Get it rich and full of nutrients for next spring. Going to plant lettuce + onions :)

    Hi
    I am having a good week this week,have my WI on Tuesday morning and it better be good numbers.I have been in the gym 3 times and will go again tomorrow and have done three 6k walks.
    My water intake is also very good having 5-6 litres most days,have only used 10 of my weeklies and none of my activity points all daily's have been spot on.If on Tuesday i am still the same or gained i reckon PP is not for me :( as i have only lost 2lb in the last 3 weeks even though i put in huge efforts.

    A cycle is great burns more cals than walking I think,after a few long walks your body will get used to them just dont try a long one every day,i have arthritis in my knees so i cant jog but walking or cycling does me no harm even a 10k walk i can manage but if i jog for five minutes my knees give way which is odd...

    Tried them... wouldn't be too gone on them to be honest! I'd rather have a super split for the same points!

    Rubbish few days :(
    Been off sick with flu so no exercise and when I could eat I ate pure rubbish. Feeling a bit sorry for myself but I'm on the mend now so hopefully I can pull myself up again and get back on track. Off home to London for the weekend to see Take That with my best friend and get some much needed mummy cuddles. I might be 28 but there's nothing that cheers me up better than a bit of mummy love.

    Hi Everyone,
    Another not great weekend for me, have just been socialising so much the last couple of weeks, had visitors, bbq's meals out and so many drinks. I'm still loosing but it's slowing down and I really want to regain my motivation. Does anyone have any tips for managing weekends/social situations? It just seems like 5pm Friday my WW brain just switches off.

    Today I joined W.W. at home program, I'm expecting to receive my pack tomorrow in post and intend to have my 1st weigh in on Wed.( I'm bricking it at the thought of standing on a scales after a long time! )I work from home so I think this will suit me. Any hints or tips re. going it alone so to speak will be welcome. Looking foreward to logging on and finding my way around forum.

    Hi :) I just found this thread and I'm so glad I did, I just joined WW and had my first weigh-in last Thursday (6 and a half pounds down, delighted) but I'm all over the place this week, the doctor put me on steroids for hayfever, it's my time of the month, and I was at a wedding at the weekend and I just feel like the whole lot's shot to hell again. I was so motivated last week and this week I feel like crying over chocolate. Dreading Thursday, I ate and drank so much between Saturday and Sunday, and I feel as if I let myself down after having such a good starting week. I really, really need this - I've gone steadily back up to a size 18-20 after losing some weight before and I'm so sick of it, I don't feel comfortable or happy or healthy. I've been saying for years that all I want to be able to do is walk into a shop and pick up a size 14 dress and know it'll fit.

    Sorry for ranting! I know it's a few days until my weigh-in, and hopefully I can pull the week back into some kind of order. Looking forward to chatting with some of ye x

    Oh Lainy, it was pure heaven! But you know I'm only back since Saturday afternoon and it feels like I was never away. Sometimes I wonder why i bother going at all, it costs me a fortune and then I need a holiday when I get back. I had my WI before I went and was up 1.5 instead of down 1.5 to get to my goal weight. It was NOT a good start to my holiday let me tell you and was one very big reason to LEAP off the wagon! On the plus side I did get lots of excercise so hopefully the damage won't be too bad. :rolleyes:

    Ugh what is wrong with me. I just can't stop eating!! Toast, chocolate croissant, dairymilk, roll with sausages, 2 packets of crisps... I won't go on. I already went over my weeklies by LOADS on the weekend (2 parties) and now i'm over my dailies and haven't even had dinner :(

    I wish I could snap out of this but all I feel like doing is eating, and eating nice things like french bread, cheese, toast with real butter, crisps!!!
