You definatly traded the right thing having a couple of vinos, if you had eaten a couple of puddings you would have felt like :bawl .
You will be fine for your weigh in tomorrow, good luck.

Bluemax will be there now having a few Keos or 3, maybe 4 but hey, she on her holidays :hyper

Hi there ndshelton, hope you have luck with your actislim.

Meerkat you will do it for the 1st do not worry.

Where Jackie :?: I need help, sorry to say but I have fell of the band wagon, no I mean the beer wagon. I have to consume when watching footy, not food but I enjoy a drink or 2. :oops:
Need to go spinning on Tuesday but England are playing.

Keep up the good work everyone

Hi again guys - second time today - decided to start the cereal thing today - well at lunchtime and one bowl kept me going through my gym and swim until I got home to a healthy supper and no alcohol.

Thanks to everyone for the usual postive vibes - I'm sure it helps!

Kazzee what a dilemma -spinning or football: mmm I think the footy will win and it is special so don't feel bad. And you must have a little drink to keep your voice lubricated for all that cheering so that's allowed too!

Cazz that is really good going! Well done you :tup

Awww joolz - you have four weeks to go, and deserve a nice day today, especially working on your day off. That must have burned up some of those calorie blighters. Good luck for tomorrow, and have a good week all us winning losers.

Hey, hey, hey its weigh day :!: Lost 1.5lbs and don't even feel excited :cry: 4wks left to shift last 5.5 but preferably 7lbs. I know, I know before you all say it :!: :lol:

I've got the hairdressers at 12 and did plan to go to the gym this morning because I can't go tonight with a new hair do but am feeling a bit delicate and think a lazy morning just might cheer me up.

Have a good week everyone.

Joolz.... well done.. and you know i am going to say you can get there..it averages out at less than 2lbs per week...

have a great week everyone..as for me... well this week it is going to be sin sin sin rather than spin spin spin or swim swim swim...it was the boy's 14th birthday yesterday, there is so much football to watch and the only suitable place to do this is, quite naturally, in the pub. We had a retirement party to attend on saturdya, and this week, one of our friends has a surprise 40th.. so there is completely no chance of me losing any weight....just as long as i don't gain......

good luck everyone and have a good week.

Kazee - it was my "cousin" Skipp Pudd who suggested I forego the dessert and indulge in the vino :rofl .

ndshelton - I have had a look at those herbal tablets. They say they suppress the appetite. I don't have a problem with feeling hungry just being greedy. They also suggest they boost you metabolic rate which would be good for burning a few extra calories. Godd luck.

Crikey so glad to be back on, wondering how all you dieting buddies are doing. Well, I went spinning for the last time last night, 4 more sleeps and I am away, drinking and eating plentiful.
Well I could tell a fib and say I promise :

To run everyday on the beach
swim full circuit of the estuary
not to let alcohol touch my lips
not to eat a full english every morning
Well I may as well stay at home..... :bhead

No cannot wait for holidays :yipee speak to you all later

kazee

welcome back everyone :ghug

Where are you all????????

Jackie you have not been on for a bit, welcome back to HT or HF.

Meerkat how are you doing with the cereal diet??

Val and Rob, Alsbaby how are you both doing with your diets??

Joolz one liners please :wink:

Come on ladies, struggling today feeling in a holiday mood. Yet I still have a couple of days to go....

hey hey hey.. we are back here today... :D so glad it is back on the air so to speak after a few days away...

so how is everyone doing?

Diet is not too bad this week.. did no exercise what so ever as swimming etc clashed with the footy and of course i indulged in the beverages of the alcoholic kind...and for some bizarre reason, i lost 2 lbs.... :yikes so there is hope for me yet....

kazee, enjoy your hols
joolz, definitely missed your jokes :rofl
jackie, are you getting excited about your impending move yet?

Yoohoo holibags dieters :!:

Just broke my 3wk before hols detox promise I made to myself. Well, Haddows have this offer on their £4.95 bottles of wine - you get 3 for £9.90. Now being a lady that likes a bargain how could one resist??

Got weighed and measured on them fancy scales at the gym again on Thursday, not been done since I last mentioned about 5wks ago. My BMI come down from 24 to 22 - think I'm on a downward spiral. Please God!!

With 3 wks to go I doubt very much I'll get to my target (9st). Me and all the other beached whales will be causing eclipses :sulk

Hi everyone - missed the thread this week while it was down....been sticking to the cereal carry-on quite well: it's really not that difficult to do during the day, but I do still want to eat more in the evening - nothing new there then!

I was bad this week in that I didn't go to the gym, but still lost 3lbs so have now lost just over 3 stone!!!!! big pat on the back to self at this point. I am going to keep to the cereal thing for another week and go to the gym to see what happens if I actually exercise!

Holiday is next Saturday - dresses fit, all systems go - a few more pounds gone by then would be good too!

Have a good week everyone! :wave

:bow Meerkat well done, well done very, very well done :!: You're one determined gal. Bet you and my pal Luke Slimmer are the double of each other :wink:

Kazee, do you think that pre-holibags excitement boosts the metabolism? Well there you go you probably lost a pound or two without even trying. Have a fab time if you're not back on air.

May day, May day, weigh day tomorrow.

kazee - hope you have a wonderful holiday - is it Benidorm? Some great ice cream places there and waffles to die for I remember...eat, drink and be generally very merry - that's what holidays are for. Enjoy!

joolz - I am a thin person really: trapped in this body and yearning to get out. Excellent BMI by the way - oh that mine could be that. Maybe one day.

Boy that gym was good tonight - was doing loads of weights to try and get toned. Could hardly do some and then realised they were equal to the weight I have already lost! :yikes Scary or what - imagine not being able to push what you used to carry round ALL DAY????

ooooohhhhh that made me think and will keep me determined....

How bad was last week :?: no HT and no daily fix, thought my comp had died on me again, so glad to be back.

Thanks Joolz for the PM. I only got the e-mail from HT this morning.

Had a quick look in Saturday but was suffering really badly from a girls night out Friday with a good friend and neighbour who is moving, got home about 2.30a.m. so wasn't really able to concentrate on what people had posted. Saturday night we went to a friends 50th so again even more voddy and coke and food. Another brilliant night. As we came home at 5.30a.m our next door neighbour was packing the car to do a boot sale. We got some disapproving looks but hey, who cares. Yesterday we went to a friends for a bbq to watch England and I am ashamed to say we had yet more drink, got home at about 12.30a.m. I have had enough food and drink in the last three days to last me a life time. (I say that now because I feel like c##p), hopefully by the end of the week I may feel a bit more normal. Definately don't need to eat for a week anyway.

Joolz - regarding the move, our buyer has pulled out so everything is up in the air at the moment. I am not a happy bunny.

Regards Jackie

Sooooo excited now :hyper

I'm still on the diet band wagon, only 2 weeks til holiday now! woo hoo.

It was my niece's christening yesterday and friends/family were there that I havent seen for a while, I got lots of comments on my weight loss. I've only lost a stone, so didnt think it was that noticable, but it obviously is! :o
Needless to say, i had the biggest smile on my face for the whole day. And its also given me the motivation to keep it going.
