Well done Alison - thats a fantastic loss:D

Thank you Lucy and thanks for sorting my mess out :D
 
Thankies Northe :D
 
Well done Alison!!!

Are you doing this all on your own? Or part of a club - e.g. Slimming World?
 
I'm completely solo on this Marg. All I have done is cut out (mostly) all the junk and cut right down on portion size. I also find (not sure if this is down to the Metformin) that I don't snack between meals either, if I do want something I tend to have an apple. I have slip ups from time to time but I am so determined to lose all this weight.
 
R.E.S.P.E.C.T. - I am in awe! Well done, it is hard enough with a support group and the weekly weigh in but to do it on your own - brilliant.

But we are the support group here :D

Now where is my little skirt and pom poms so I can get on with the cheerleading? ; Go Alison - Go Marge 😛
 
well done Kitten 🙂 well done Andy 🙂 and well done Alison 🙂


hope I didn't miss anyone ...... no weight-loss for me ... again ... but I didn't gain any while looking after my grandson for a week at their house.... so I'm well pleased with that

now.... let me get at that Wii !!!
 
Mark you are so right the WLG IS my support and I thank each and every one of you.
I also need to thank the little lady that sits on my shoulder (via text messages) and tells me off if I have too many takeaways. She knows who she is and I love her lots xxx

Well done Alison.

Re: Takeaways. I have a 'cunning' approach to them. I am allowed one a month without any penalties. However, if I have two in a month I CANNOT have one during the next month. If I have three in a month, then I CANNOT have one for the next two months and so on.

It's worked so far and I congratulate myself at the end of each month for not having a takeaway on each day! But if I ever did (have a takeaway on each day), then I'd make sure it was February in a non-leap year!! :D
 
Andy as a rule I have one treat a week and that is my Maccy D on a saturday :D I do try to avoid takeaways because of it but face we none of us are perfect yet are we? 😱
 
My 'treat' is a bacon butty at work on Friday. With brown sauce. Sigh.
 
I?m following something similar to Andy I think. I?m working on the concept that I can have one nice meal out per month and that is my treat for good behaviour.

I?m not sure what I?m going to do when we get to our summer holiday ? possibly relax the rule.

We have never really been one for McD?s or pizza?s because of my wifes IBS, it can be triggered by most spices and fatty foods, dairy, pickles, most fruits.
 
Well done everyone :D Only a pound for me this week but thats better than a gain , having a lot of hypos at the moment ,so am really good all day they go hy[po later!!!!! Been shopping with mum this morning for her outfit for my sisters wedding and had to hypos :( diabetes and dieting really dont mix well do they

So total group loss now 9 Stone 12lbs
 
Well done on your 1lb loss Jenny,
I do know what you mean about the hypos, you sort of feel you are undoing all the good work whilst treating it. A 1lb loss is perfectly acceptable loss though so well done you.
