20 somethings

That's a good idea Clare! It's not like we eat rabbit food so hopefully he'd enjoy it and it would give him a nudge in the right direction! Is he a fussy eater with healthy things? OH was but I converted him! He's one of these lucky twats that can eat what they want though haha, towers above me and is a slim jim.
Jenna it's crazy isn't it!! Do you mind me asking how much you've lost? I would nosey but on my phone so can't see stats! Just tell me to pee off if I'm being too nosey :( xx
 
Nah he's not fussy at all, he's just very sceptical I think! I think I'll do that, making reasonable adjustments for his bigger appetite and stuff that he doesn't like.

Might suggest it to him when he's drunk tonight rather than sober hahaaa!

Let us know how it goes!! My OH has a hearty appetite and he really loves most of the recipes I do, do him the SW burgers or a big portion of SW curry ;) hel be wishing he'd not been so skeptical! :p x

Yes, prey on the vulnerable...I like your style, Clare!

I've lost 3st 8lbs..hopefully I can see 3st 9lbs tomorrow morning lol!

That's what I do :D left my shopping in the car for him to bring in too.

I dunno when this thing finishes, I hope it's not too late 'cause I can't be arsed going out already.
 
I think because my parents were big too they didn't say anything. I was 5'6" when I joined uni and a bmi of 44. I'm currently 5'5" and bmi of 37. I hope my inch returns like yours did! I don't wear rings, they irritate my fingers so I wouldn't know about that. The boots I live in are a 7 but are too big. I stepped outside on Wednesday and the heel fell off where it got repaired! Thinking of treating myself to a new pair but this time knee high black ones. Grandad is sending £100 joint birthday and Christmas so could come from that. Only I have the same problem as you jenna, I need the half size. I tried some cute black fluffy ankle boots but 7 was too big and 6 too small :(

I suppose if you did your breakfast for both of you, packed the same lunch for both of you and doshed out the same tea i guess it'd just be snacks he'd have to curb himself.

Wow Jenna that's amazing! You should shout it from the roof tops!! You can't be far off target!?! You'll be invisible!!! X
 
Haha I wish, Jessica. Still got a good bit to go before I'm happy with the way I'm portioned but I'm much happier than I was and am content with things slowing down. I am hoping it's 6lbs to target (again, hopefully 5 in the morning) which is currently 8st 7lbs. I really cba dropping it further...losing weight is blooming hard work haha!
 
Ooh I meant to say, I managed to stop a car crash tonight. Two cars were reversing out of spaces and nearly right into eachother. I panicked and hit my horn and thankfully they got it lol!
 
Haha thanks Ciara. I also nearly knocked down a man who may or may not have been a Celtic player. He looked a lot like him lol!!

Well you look amazing and have worked bloody hard for what you've achieved. I am desperate to be 9 stone something. Would be really happy at that, but sticking at 10 stone for now as when the tummy is sorted il lose a few so I'm okay with that! I'd even be happy at 9 13 and a half, just love the sound of the those 9's, it's weird cos I always have to stop myself sometimes just to make sure I'm not dreaming, I think sometimes mentally I still feel big, it's a weird feeling x
 
Argh girls you'd be so proud of me! Spent the night in a bar with friends - everyone ate there but they only have burgers or pizza on the menu so I abstained and drank my bodyweight in Diet Coke instead. Then, to rub it in, my lovely OH got an additional Double Cheeseburger meal from Burger King to eat on the train home. Bloody starving now but feeling virtuous!

Ouch on the chilblains, Fran. I hope the hand doesn't fall off after your mum's remedy!

The ring I got for my birthday is almost big enough to fall off now! One of those funny places. I'm also down to my last belt hole - woohoo! That's 4 belt holes down! Nice to be able to see it!

Thats great willpower go you :)
 
Clare, you superhero in disguise you! haha! Well done lyrically, amazing will power.

Thank you. I agree with just saying a number makes you feel better...I can't imagine if the dr or something asked my weight and actually being able to say I'm in the 8's I mean WHAT that's a crazy number! I know exactly what you mean about still feeling like you're at your biggest...Idk how many times I look in the mirror and think I look how I started. It's ridiculous and obv not right but your mind is a funny thing. Yours must be particularly hard to cope with because you've come so far, you must actually feel like a completely different person. I take it you get people quite frequently not recognising you?
 
I can't imagine being in the 8s! I remember having to weigh ourselves in PE when I was in year 8 and I was 8st 3 and I was distraught because I thought I was fat. I wish I could go back and give myself a shake!
