Hi, i am new on here and came across your post. I wanted to say well done. You have done amazingly well. I wish i had your motivation. Joined SW. need to loose 10 stone to save my heart. Finding it very hard, very emotional and at times i just cry to myself to feel better.
Woo woo
Lost another 2lb, down to 336 which is exactly 24 stone. My lowest weight for 5 years.
Just one more pound and I will be in the 23-stone bracket.
That is 8lb in about 10 days, and this is in spite of eating a goodly amount of chocolate every single day! Yesterday I finished off the Thornton's chocolate Easter bunny that my Russian lodger gave me to cheer me up when I was having a really nasty attack of rhinitis. The day before that I ate a WHOLE BOX of Maltesers (600 calories).
This is crazy! I almost want to write a book called "the chocolate diet" but of course I could not recommend my WOE to anyone as we are all so individualistic. There could be other reasons for my loss. For example, my nose is streaming much of the time so maybe a lot of that is WATER weight lost or rather "snot weight".... LOL

hi Helen,
so happy to come back and see the progress you are making.
BMI under 60 is a BRILLIANT at achievement, these milestones are the ones to really celebrate xxxx
Hey Claire!
Lost another 4lb since yesterday .... now at 332, which is 20lb lost in 5 weeks and one day!
And that was after eating a whole large Galaxy yesterday (600 calories)!
So, weight is now 23 stone 10.
(Started at 25 stone 2.)
Have not been this light for at least 5 years.

We'll don't that's fantastic.
Ahh thank you Claire. Never give up is our motto.
I'm so glad you got though the trip away unscathed. This means that you have overcome what is a major problem with many slimmers ~ one party, wedding, Xmas and they fall off the wagon and forget to get back on. If you can get through these Times of Temptation then there genuinely is nothing to stop you from reaching your goal.
As for me I am UP 6lbs today, but I am not panicking this time. I drank a LOT of water overnight and this morning, but didn't pee much, so I guess I am full of fluids. What I decided to do is, never log a gain; only log a loss. So if I (apparently) gain, I will just wait for the weight to go back down again, and once it shows a loss again, log that. Anything else would be madness!
