Here we go again!
Went gym last night and enjoyed it (believe it or not!!). Always feel so good after I've been though. I will try to go every Monday from now to do an extra bit of toning up.
The dress arrived but it was too small. I know I've still got 7 weeks to the wedding but I don't think I'd get in it even then! I am going shopping for an outfit with my daughter a week on saturday anyway, so hopefully I will find something lovely then. I'd better or it's trackie bottoms and baggy top for me for the wedding!! I don't enjoy clothes shopping at all. I never have done. Because I live in trousers for work and jeans at the weekend, I can't even imagine myself in a dress for a whole day! I just don't wear them.

I agree Jan, there are some stunning trouser suits which will look super elegant especially with a good pair of heels. If you're not comfortable in a dress, Bev, then it will show in your face. Go with what you feel will look best on you. Your daughter will give you an honest opinion. Have fun shopping.

She certainly will give me an honest opinion, that's why I asked her to come with me!! She is very honest and wont beat around the bush at all!! I will tell her not to be too harsh though! I hadn't really thought about trouser suits, I just presumed I would wear a dress or skirt suit of some sort. I shall have a good look around and see what they have. Will let you know after next weekend.

Lost another pound this week and very pleased with that. Going shopping this weekend and I'm excited about it now. My mum got her outfit last week, I'll be looking at it tomorrow. Good job she told me that she's bought hers cos she's actually bought the outfit from the shop that I was looking in and I didn't want to pick up the same one as her!! Less than 6 weeks to the wedding now and the time is flying by! Saw my daughter last night and she isn't as stressed about everything now, everything is booked and like I told her, on the day you will just enjoy yourself and you don't have to worry about a thing. It's all being taken care of so just relax and enjoy it!

Walked to mum and dad's last night and saw my mum's outfit for the wedding. She will look so good in it. Not sure if it's the same dress I saw in the shop or not, but she's really pleased with it. Will post pics of the wedding and let you see then! I have a few shops to look around before heading to the one that I really like. Want to check out what the other shops have before deciding for definite. Decisions, decisions!!

Here we go again!
I've decided it's time to stop the TFR because I wasn't being 100% anymore anyway. I will still have a few products to keep in control of things but I am having food now. Feel good that I've made that decision now! I've lost almost 3 1/2 stones and am very pleased with that.
Went shopping on Saturday and got my outfit for my daughter's wedding. I love it! It's a dress and bolero jacket and a fascinator. I have never looked so good, ever!! I feel really confident in it and when I showed hubby and my other daughter they said it was amazing! I feel I'm a naturally scruffy person so to look like that felt really good. I was so excited to find something and felt so good in it. I tried on about 4 other outfits first but didn't feel it was the one, then I tried on this one and just knew. My daughter said to try the matching fascinator too and it really did complete the outfit! So chuffed I've got my outfit now. I also got the shoes and the clutch bag. I got the whole outfit in one foul swoop! Good eh??

That's fab Bev - cant wait to see the photos 
I think your right to stop TFR if your not being 100% because you'll just end up beating yourself up about it and feeling worse.. You have done amazing to lose 3 1/2 stone! Seeing you do so well over the past couple of months gave me the kick up the but to go back on TFR to get to my goal

Well done Bev on reaching your goal. Back to the job of maintaining those losses and I'm sure you'll do well. How nice to have everything sorted for the wedding. No last minute rushing to get this or that. I'm sure the excitement is building up now!!! Enjoy these last few weeks of wedding prep!

Here we go again!
So, having my hair cut and coloured tomorrow. My daughters already paid for my session in the hairdressers as a birthday present, bless them! My daughter will be highlighting it in a couple of weeks in time for the wedding, back to blonde for me then!
My daughter (whose getting married) has had a massive falling out with her stepmum last night. The nutty woman had a complete go at her on the train last night and she rang me in tears (of frustration and anger). This woman has had it in for her since she was about 7 years old. My daughter can't do right for doing wrong. She's even told my ex husband that if they split up it's my daughter's fault!! She hasn't done anything except be her father's daughter. She just doens't need this extra stress before her wedding. I want her to start relaxing now and enjoying the build up, not stressing and worrying about things she can do nothing about. This woman and her daughter have always had a go at my daughter, always giving snidey comments and being really horrible to her, since she was very young. My daughter said nothing for the sake of her dad but now she's 22 she's not going to bite her tongue anymore, why should she? The stepsister has already been banned from the wedding, looks like the mother might be now too! I just hope this woman doens't kick off at the wedding (if she goes) cos there's going to be a queue of us to throw her out, me being first!! Families!!
Hope everyone has a good weekend.

I'd ban the step mum too. Its your daughters big day, there should be no atmosphere, no anomosity (sp?) nothing. If she doesnt get on with someone why invite them? I understand for her dad but hopefully her dad will understand.
How are you doing food wise now Bev? All ok?
Yey back to blonde!! Blondes are best xx

Had hair cut and coloured on saturday, it's now shoulder length and quite dark brown. I'm having it highlighted in just under 2 weeks so nice and blonde again for wedding and then holiday!
Food wise I'm doing OK. I feel happy with what I'm having and I'm not going mad. I'm not wanting to eat as much as I used to and I'm also not wanting the rubbish that I used to crave either. May have finally got my head into a better place regarding food, eventually!!
Had a lovely long weekend, back to reality today. Less than 4 week's til daughter's wedding and only 7 weeks tomorrow til holiday, can't wait for both!! Bought some new make up yesterday especially for the wedding, I hardly ever buy new make up. Got to do some practising with that before the wedding, don't want to look like I've got black eyes or anything!!

Glad to hear you are managing your food intake and that cravings are not taking over. Keep up your great work.
