Evening girls, I did well at the car boot today, made £246 and still have a third of it left so we are going to do another tomorrow to get rid of the last of it. I took my bar with me but when I went to have it, it had melted so didn't have anything until 3pm but felt ok apart from sunburnt face and chest lol.
I hope you have all had a good Saturday xx

Hi everyone, where are you all? So quiet! I've had a lovely day treating my Mum to the musical We Will Rock You and out for a meal afterwards. Yes, my first morsel of food in 11 weeks!
I've been umming and ahhing over having my 810 week early for a while, or having some food on ss+. My losses are slowing down and I've been finding the temptation to eat food far greater despite recently refinding my determination and motivation (which went awol around week 8). Decided to try and have a sensible meal that would be close to an 810 choice and see what happened. I've just started private counselling because I don't want to lose all my weight and then put it all back on again and if eating food again is going to cause problems that I'd like the support!
Introducing food when I still have a stone and half to go was a terrifying thought for me; hence needing to do it! I'm still scared this will trigger my old binge eating problems but feel good at the moment. I had cajun chicken with salad and only ate the ones allowed on the list, no sauces and stuck to water to drink...so fingers crossed I don't wake up ravenous and wild tomorrow!
How sad am I, feeling brave for eating some chicken? Mad, mad world...
Hope you're all doing good, managing the weekend and the ups n downs. Night butterflies xxx

Hi Butterflies,
How are we all today? I hope you all had a good day. I had a great time. I went in to Frasers with my mum and I didn't realise they had an amazing sale so I bought loads of 6 Kalico tops for £70 and they're all stunning. One of them was about £80 reduced to £12. They had a 70% sale and then an extra 20% today. I didn't know it was on so was delighted. The only problem is they are all a 16 and hopefully I wont be that for much longer. I haven't really bought anything since I started C D though. I also bought a new bra cos my old ones were hanging off. My boobs are still massive though - 36 GG! It's quite ugly really. Anyway they look alright with clothes on!
Contrary, you will be fine with eating. I did it for over 3 weeks there and put on 3lb and have lost it again in 3 days. I have been back on diet - SS100% and i'm finding it easier than I did before at the moment. I wouldn't say I'm losing weight that quickly though but as long as it comes off I don't mind. You're doing fantastic anyway.
Good night all, will speak to you again tomorrow xxx

Victoria - this is a special post for you!
I really feel for you at the moment, and I am so sorry I was away when you went through a realy tough time - as I wasn't there to support you.
I am glad that he came back, but I can't even begin to imagine what you went through waiting for him to talk with you.
I am thinking about you, and praying and hoping things are on the right path. If you ever need to chat, I am here for you...... if you would like my number, please pm me, and I will send it.
I am sending you lots and lots of love.

Ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am back from my holidays - and boy I have missed you all!!!
Welcome back from your holiday Broxi - it is great to have you back!!!
Well I managed to stay stable - 12.3 when I left, and 12.3 when I got back and with totm too!! I had a break last weekend, and last night I went to a ball (with a sit down meal). I stayed ss Mon to Thurs - so I am back on it today..... and pretending not to be hungry!! ha ha!!
I was surprised that I eating came back to me quite naturally!! But I need to shift another stone before my bmi hits 25........ so here goes!!!
My ball was lovely last night - it was for my walking group.....and about 80 people where there! I was told I was going to win 'belle of the ball' but I got really embarrassed, and said I really would prefer not to win - so luckily they listened and I came second!! It was a lovely gesture - and nice as I have lost all that weight - but I didn't want to get a prize or be singled out, so I was glad not to win it!! ha ha!
How is everyone else???
I need to start selling clothes on ebay so I can get some funds towards my new wardrobe for when I am at target!!

Contrary - I was worried about eating again too, but I was fine and felt full quickly!!! which is good!!
I am now going to try to ss to bmi 25 - but you are not far off that!!
I guess for me, I just need to make sure I use the same determination and control for food, as I have done for this diet....... sticking with it is hard, and we have all done so well - and I am sure that if we can stick to ss, we should be able to make sure we don't put back on when we finish or start 810 again!!!
Just think of the jeans we are going to buy babe!!
How are you today??

Hey Lady B,
What a success! Staying the same during holiday!! You must be SO pleased and proud of yourself!
I usually put on 7lbs on holiday, so to me this is one heck of an achievement! After eating yesterday I realised I was hungry later that evening, so had my 3rd CD pack and that sorted it.
Woke up the next day feeling no different. No hungrier than normal! If I can galvanise my arse to Sainsburys I might go and buy some bits and pieces and try for my 810 week now. I stepped on the scales today and have finally got into the 11s! This is a biggy for me as I notoriously stick in the 12s!! 12. 8 is the weight I've never got past before.
I have a pair of 14 designer jeans (read size 12 really here!) that I keep trying on, each week I can get them a bit further up which feels great. Yesterday I wore size 14 head to toe which was a pretty amazing feeling. And I have noticed the male attention has suddenly increased rather dramatically, which is nice, although a little disconcerting too.
And on a personal note... when Andy (my fiance) was killed, I put a dress that I wore on our anniversary weekend in his coffin with letters I'd written and a few other personal bits and pieces. I went out and bought another of the same dress to save for my memories. This might sound a little odd to everyone, I know.
Anyway, years later I put on so much weight I have never worn that dress but kept it anyway. Today I tried it on and it almost does up at the back. I can see my shape again and got a glimmer of the old me mixed with the me I'm going to become. Meant a lot to me
Couldn't have done it without you lasses. Thank you.

I totally understand the dress - and it was a lovely idea to put it in with him!! I am so pleased you are nearly back into the same (but different) dress........ I hope that brought back some good memories of him for you!
You have done so well babe - especially after a loss like that......
I am sure you got lots of admiring glances, even if you didn't get chatted up!
