Feeling great in 2012!
Looking good hun - the dress looks amazing! I'm with the jeans too big camp. You shouldn't be wearing baggy with the figure you have now - you should be flaunting your arse and legs. I'm pretty much the same weight as you and enjoying wearing jeans that are snug 
I can just see you in the style that Mel just posted! Though I have to say that is similar to my work style clothes (minus the gloves!) but you'd definitely would look better than I do in that style. I hated the boring suits all the lawyers wore and I always wore red lipstick.

Haha...I know they are clam diggers. I was just yanking your chain! Probably in a way that I am envious of your boobs and skinny legs. Your curves are bombastic!
I know everyone says it, but it's no wonder you dont want to lose much more...You look amazing. Totaly in proportion and everything. That dress is also lush, was that perchance a collectif number?

Lost in the Supermarket
It was 18 months of trying for us, and I had a mc in the middle of that, so our GP didn't take that into account. They also did a sperm test on OH, despite us already having a daughter, and decided his wrigglers were not wriggling. What they didn't tell us was that he had just had a really bad bout of cold/cough/flu-ish ness (so did I) and that can affect results for 2 months, so he then had a complete meltdown about how nothing was working anymore, of no reason
However, I hope you can relax, enjoy your honeymoon and afterwards go speak to the GP again hun.
Whens the wedding - 5 weeks to go for us and I am starting to get nervous!
Thankyou Egbert, I will take all of that into consideration when we next see our GP- he seems very eager to fob us off. Mine isn't until August- the 28th, but we've only just started planning!! 5 weeks- wow, are you all sorted? Good luck,not that you will need it
Thankyou! That is just a slightly exaggerated version of my every day hair. I am another one whose job allows for a slightly eccentric appearance- people think I look odd when my hair is down

Two thoughts this morning. Firstly - ack! New hairdo looks decidedly naff without being hairdresser-styled. Will see what the frizz-ease cream can do in a bit, but beginning to regret losing the length.
Secondly, tomorrow's looking like a slightly bigger loss than last week's pathetic 0.75lbs, but prob only a two-pounder at best. I think it's particularly tough because the site is full of January starters with their huge losses. I am not very zen about it when I read of others' big results - especially if they've not stuck to the straight and narrow. I mean, I'm pleased for them, and I don't want them to have sh1t results, but I'd like my results to be better. Cos I bloody deserve them if anyone does!
It's just sod's law really - that now I have a time limit and an exit date, my body is refusing to play ball and I'm going to wash up at the end of SS with well over a stone to go. But what can you do?
I'm also finding myself hungrier and temptation stronger than it has been for months. I've had enough, I expect. Finding myself wishing the time away.

Stick with it hun youve come so far. I hope your body shifts itself and doesn't stop playing like mine did
either way you will get there. Stay strong xxxSpangles, I do understand how you must feel about the losses slowing down after all this time and all the effort you have put in. But whilst you are feeling the temptation I just know you will stick to plan and therefore you will get there.
As for you hair, it will grow and in a couple of days once you can style it yourself you won't freak. Can't wait to hear the feedback from the reaction of the kids and colleagues at school today! Have a fantastic day! You are looking soooo glam and gorgeous ignore the numbers for now. They will go down! x

Why Be Normal?
Aw, Spangles --
It could be so much worse. Your hair will grow on you. It takes time to get used to a new style. Try a shampoo and conditioner for smoothing.
There is a John Frieda three day straightening spray -- that you use with your flat iron and it helps keep your hair smooth until you wash it again. It does work.
As far as the diet goes -- print up your start photos and post them side by side with your sweater pin-up -- and this should help keep you motivated. You can think: "Just wait until this hot sweater picture is the BEFORE photo!" What a rockin' body you will have then. Talk about hot for teacher???

Thanks - i think the hair thing is just me being sulky because i don't want hair i have to do stuff to. I want to be able to wash it in my favourite shampoo and conditioner, let it dry naturally, sleep on it and then a quick brush and go. I've almost always had longer hair and the length pulls it straight, while the layers stop it getting bouffy at the ends.

Why Be Normal?
I am the same -- thick hair that when it is short is very "big" and has to be "tended". However, when it is long it gets pulled down a lot by the weight and is more manageable.
But, I am rather old for such long hair (although, I'm not truly bothered by that) -- and I recently cut my hair to donate it to a charity that makes wigs for children who have lost their hair. After I donated my hair -- my DD decided to part with 10 inches of her hair, too. It'll grow back -- my hair grows very fast as does hers.
What I am going to do is use a product I can buy on the American post --
It works for reasonably wavy or frizzy hair. Seriously kinky stuff not so much. It lasts through about 7 shampoos. You still have to blow dry or use a flat iron, but on to "touch it up -- it you want it erfectly straight -- but if you just want it "calmer" it is a one shot treatment that lasts a couple of weeks. It is Such a time saver.
They do not sell it here, yet. But, they will I am sure.
