That's the way I look at it too, plus I get to know everyone too. There have been a couple of times when I've weighed everyone and then gone and not stayed for IT, but only if it's been a bank holiday or I was so hungry I was gonna pass out! Eeekk!!

Doing okay, I think? The scales weren't nice on Tuesday morning after the hen weekend (and neither were the photos Had an incredibly down day after feeling and looking fat, and disappointed in mysef) but I'm on day 3 of being 100%, and I feel better in myself now. It's kind of why I wanted to get weighed on Wednesday, shock tactics and all that, but still, I'll just continue and take whatever the scales say on Monday. What about you? Are you powing that celebration gain away?

Well I'm on plan and have all the best intentions in the world, DETERMINED to at least get back into target range (I went out of range by 1/2lb!) but I accidentally fell into some of my friend Angs chocolate cake last nite on nite shift during a weak moment! I reckon about 20 syns worth of damage was done! Sooo angry with myself, but did have lots of syns left over yest and I'm hardly having any syns today so HOPEFULLY it'll be ok! Ooh its a battle sometimes! Glad you're back on top of things again, and sorry to hear you had a moment of feeling so down in yourself! I think sometimes this is just a case of being a woman, or even just 'human' XxX

Awww Bev, you've saved my life!! (Well my soul at least lol!!) It's lonely here at target!!! Well actually I may well still be OUT of target and paying next time at class as I just weighed and looks like I've STS since last week! I'll be extremely lucky if I've lost the 1/2lb needed to get back into target range again!! Grrwwww it's very frustrating not least because I've been pretty damn good this week and been very adamant saying "NO!!!" to several cake opportunities and also pizza in work as I wanted to see the results this week!! I gave into SOME cake but was generous on estimating 20 syns and have cut back on other days....But sometimes the scales are on our side and sometimes they're against us, which is the natural way of things!! So I've just gotta ride with it, be patient and look forward to a nice loss next WI which won't be next week but the week after!! As my own scales are within 1/2lb of the SW ones I think I'll weigh myself next Mon evening (it's Dai's bday and my parents are staying with us hence the reason for missing class!) so at least I'll have a good idea where I am and stay on track!! I weigh myself each morning nowadays and not sure whether or not this is healthy!! I always said I wouldn't do that as scale hopping is an obsession I'd quite like to avoid, but I do actually think it helps/will help to keep me focused in the long run! Anyway I'm pretty confident that the lack of loss this week is down to a combination of *week and having just done pesky nights! I FEEL really bloated in my tum but my clothes feel fine so I'm not worried!! This is how it works sometimes! Endov!!!

So rant over, and over to you!! Just commented on the challenge thread- well done on your loss!! This is great news and the last 2lb/1 kilo is yours for the taking next week with a little focus!! YOU CAN DO IT- WHOOP WHOOP!!! It feels great being on track again doesn't it!! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Well, nothing standing in the way as such. But basically, I was a bridesmaid for my bestie last month and about six weeks before the wedding, we realised my dress was huge. Long story short, we couldn't swap it, couldn't alter it, so I just took a break from SW for a bit. And the break was a bit longer than I had intended. But I'm back in the zone now and gonna get myself back into a different dress for another friends wedding next year (so I've got time!).

You'll get back into target range, no worries! xxx
