Another 1lb off so just one more to get back to my target and undo the damage I did 2 weeks ago. 4lbs left to shift to get to the bottom of my target for my holiday and no doubt then I'll want to see if I can shift a further 0.5lb as that will get me my 3st award and I'll be in the 8's!

Thank you! It's crazy to think that it will have taken me at least 3 weeks to lose what I ate in 2 days of awful binge eating takes... Maybe I will learn this time!

Are you still sticking to a Thursday WI now you are getting weighed with your friend rather than at class?

Good luck! I have such a wonderful group I don't ever want to stop going, not so sure how I'd do going it alone x
