[orlandothebeagle]

Thanks, you are all very nice, yes I still am a vet nurse, done it for a while now, i love my job, I work for a charity on my time off, mass neutering everywhere from, Ireland, Portugal and Spain! The less testes and ovaries the better!

 

[Pinky166]

I wasn't going to post this week as I am so fed up (I put on 2lb ) but I have been back on track since this morning and am determined to be on it 100% this week.

Good luck everyone.

Sorry to hear that you've put on this week, I hope it was just a little blip and that you'll be back on track for next weeks weigh-in

****​

After starving myself for the last two days (due to the overeating of chocolate earlier in the week ) I am chuffed that I have lost another pound

Just another pound to go till I've lost a stone (and reached my goal), but it does feel like it's taking 2 to 3 weeks to lose a pound these days

Good Luck for next weeks weigh-ins everyone

 

[natalielongstaff]

wow! well done mandy-hope you get to your stone next week, good luck

 

[Netty]

Lynne thankyou so much for posting those photos, and to keep it off for 3 years shows a lot of determination, well done!
I am doing the weight watchers diet, but having a back problem at the moment which has now vastly improved, hasnt helped in the past not being as mobile. I'll keep plodding on though!

HEY PINKY

That is the good thing about a healthy lifestyle, every single morning in life you get a brand new chance to start again and put things right, dont look back, look forward, not many things in life are so easy to get another chance at.!


Nat, dont you miss it? I could not give up work I dont think, but a lot of nurses just do it because a job is a job. I worked in a factory and made bloody barbour jackets for 4 years to be able to afford to take a year out to do a prep course!

 

[orlandothebeagle]

This is a great thread, what a change, everybody nice and friendly, All so good as well with the dieting thing, I will keep in touch with all you guys, Lynne

Im a childminder now....i loved the job ( i did it for 10yrs) but the hours were too much with a youg family

the pay is rubbish as well

 

[orlandothebeagle]

Too true, although i have a really good and well paid job, I do think I am in the minoraty though. I work nights, 1 wk on and 1 off, really suits my lifestyle, good bosses as well, Lynne.
You are a hero doing child minding! Do you pre med yourself with paracetamol before work

 

[Mrs Hobbes]

Ok you guys, It is blooming diff to loose wt BUT you can do it, and even more important, you can keep it off, I have been fat free for 3 years,Every day is a struggle, but a worthwhile one! I was on another thread showing off my tatto and netty said I should try to inspire everybody, I have only ever told a few people about my wt loss because I find it ver embarrassing, I lost 8 stone!! I now fill my days with swimming, running and bike, Sat I am doing another half marathon!! Life really is good, As you can see I went to a fancy dress as a school girl.Can you imagine doing THAT at 19.5 stone?This year I went *** Rizzo!!(almost even better!)And if I can do it YOU can, any way I hope I inspire you, If I can help e-mail me anytime!!!

What an amazing story - thanks for the inspiration Lynne. I have loads of weight to lose but I've almost done 2 stone so I'm going in the right direction. Once I get there I hope I can keep it off as long as you.

well done to everyone that has lost or stayed the same this week

I have not weighed in this week as it was my birthday on saturday and as its FA cup final this saturday I have given myself the week off, as my alchol consumption is bound to affect the scales.Will be straight back to it on monday I have kept up the excerise though so hopefully I havent done to much damage

Happy birthday! Good luck with next weeks weigh in

Good luck everyone.

I've sent you a pm Claire and will email you later Well done for getting straight back on track and not giving up

Just another pound to go till I've lost a stone (and reached my goal), but it does feel like it's taking 2 to 3 weeks to lose a pound these days

Well done Mandy on almost reaching your goal. You've done so well

 

[Pinky166]

Thanks Netty.....I did let it get me down on Weds night when I came out of class but I got up and got back on it first thing yesterday. I am very determined this week. Good luck to you too.

HEY PINKY

Thanks Lynne. That is so true...that has really helped me put things into perspective. I have been looking back.

Basically I started slimming world at the end of sept and lost almost 2 stone by christmas. Since then I have yo-yo'd up and down every week losing a few then gaining a few and lately it has really got me down as all I keep doing is looking back thinking I have wasted 5 months and could have lost loads of weight in that time.

I have been really hung up on it but what you have said has really motivated me.....today and everyday forward will be a new challenge and a fresh start. Thank you.

ive had a good week, i did just give in to a nobbly bobbly lolly
but i have been good all week so i dont think its to bad.

i have also taken the preasure off a bit by setting myself a smaller target. i have until 10th july to lose weight, i wanted to lose another 1 1/2stone but i think that is might be to hard so i have set myself a target of 1/2stone.
