Hi Gemma, your pictures are not unsightly you look really pretty. Its a good idea to measure yourself as when the weight slows down you can see that the inches are coming off so something is still happening.

Exactly im excersising alot at night try tone that mummy belly up lol... i go by hips not waist as i hae he hips as long as they get small dont matter bout wasit want get my hips to just slightly bigger than waist lol!

 

[alwyn]

You look lovely hon!! And so does your living room

You'll do it - you sound very determined and there would be nothing worse than feeling awful on your wedding day because you didn't lose the weight (speaking as someone who knows )

wasn't until was writing my sw diary in my book i realised i had no syns ... wasn't purposely done! really wanted 7 100% days this week do you think will effet weightloss majorly?

 

[OzzieMoz]

Not having used your syns for one day certainly shouldn't adversely affect your loss. It's just good practice to make sure you use your syns regularly, because (a) they help make the plan more pleasant and sustainable in the long-term and (b) if your losses do slow down eventually then you can start cutting back on syns to shed the last few pounds or so.

This plan works, try not to stress about it, I find when I'm relaxed about it I do better - there is no logic to that but it seems to be true

Good luck :fingerscrossed:
