QUEEN SIZE TO PRINCESS

aww Laura, I looked through your profile pics (cos someone else mentioned them and Im a nosey moo) and the difference is amazing. I got all choked up at the thought of doing half as well as you (cos im the emotional type too lol)... what an inspiration you are xx

prehaps someone should send Faith some skates... you'll run twice as fast Patsy :D have a lovely day with her xxx
 
Good morning ladies.. What a fabulous bunch of losers are you!! I can't see your pictures yet Laura but you are doing so well, I think I will be shedding a tear or two when I hit the 100 lb mark, I tell you.

Visitors gone, kids back to school today, back to the routine.

Capricorn, good luck with the gym, it takes a bit of getting used to but I like it (I can't do that much yet) especially the threadmill, I walk so much better and further on it than just walking outside but it gets a bit boring because there isn't much to see, you can eye up the squaddies though ;):D

I better go and sort out the washing and tidy the living room, have a great day all :vibes:
 
:eek: I'm starting to dread coming on this thread, there's always a shed load to catch up on! :8855:

Well done on the losses girlies! Fan-bloody-fastic :D

Laura (I've said this before somewhere today......but I'll say it here too :p) I'm so proud of you! I really am. You've done amazingly well - you look a completely different person :eek: I have to say though, you don't look like you've got another 100lb to lose! You look bootiful sweetie, flipping bootiful! That top suits you perfectly :D

Karen - WOW well done girl! I'm so glad you've blown your holiday gain away :D

I've forgotten everyone elses losses now :sigh: but well done to everyone.

Well my WI was last night and after my foolhardy 'experiment' with a green week (which I know doesn't work for me! but I did it anyway! lol) I lost 1lb. I'd be disappointed with that normally, but it's not bad for green :D lol

Anyway, as much as I enjoyed having a green week (twas like being off plan I love green so much) I shall now be returning to my precious red, with a EE thrown in now and then :D So in Bevland, tis now official - green is not the way to go! :8855: But I knew that anyway :D I might amend my stats when I get home from work though :D tis a step downwards after all :D lol

I'm gonna have to wait another flipping week to drop into the next stone now. BUT good news is, I won SOTW last week (left early and missed it - so she gave me it this week) so that cheered me up a bit :D lol

Patsy, have a good time tonight. Hope you manage to stay on the waggon :D Oh and I've penciled you in for Friday for our hot date, sweetie, honey bun xxx :8855: What time? I shall keep a look out for a hot, 21 year old looking chick! lol

I know I've missed a shed load of stuff, and I'm dead sorry. I'm just crap :eek:

Catch you's later xxx

Afternoon lovely ladies!

Well done on the loss Bev!! :bliss: And well done you on SOTW last week! I bet that was a nice surprise when you got to class! :)

Oh, and naughty naughty Bev! You should never be disappointed with a 1lb loss. 1lb a week is fabulous remember, and is 3 stone 10lb over the course of a year! :p

Hope everyone's being good today! :)

I bet it's nice to be back to your normal routine hun. Having visitors/friends round is always nice, but not very often SW-friendly! :)

Aww Bev aren't you a sweetie! I may carry my weight pretty well but I'm sure in person you'd see where the 360lbs is. :giggle:

Well done on your green week. It may not be as wonderful as normal but a pounds a pound! I bet you'll have a fab loss this coming week once you get back to normal.:D
 
Hi ladies

Well done on all of the fabuloso losses, your all doing fabulously, keep up the good work!

Capricorn, i used to love going to the gym, i used to try and go when i knew it would be quiet and enjoyed it alot more that way! have fun!

Im hoping you girlies can knock some sense into me! i am feeling realllly down! its not like me at all. i tend to just get on with things. couldnt make wi this week as was working, weighed myself at home and i had lost 1/2lb! that alone is not whats bothering me! i just feel like i have gone around in circles for the last 3 weeks! though im not gaining, i know i am not following sw properly! wake up every day and say today i will! im prob not going over syns etc and am still eating sw meals i usually would, i just cant find my motivation! and i know why, i suppose i am only posting this becuase i want someone to whip me into shape! i need to give my head a wobble! well possibly too much info here, but although were not trying for a baby just yet, i convinced myself that i was preggo last month! stupid i know, was telling myself i wasnt but really believed i was, i was nauseas for nearly two weeks, sore back and boobs and i felt like *****! anyhoo, im not! and now that we have just moved into house, i keep thinking about which room id have as nursery etc and honestly since then i think i have kind of lost my mojo. doesnt help that my best friend is preggy and also my sis in law (i really dont like her at the best of times....shes so evil). i think i have been broody for ages and i keep thinking that im 27 and better do it soon, but been trying to get weight off before trying. i think its just been a really stressful few weeks, new house, new job, exams, assignments etc i will be ok soon im sure. working on a neuro ward too, and although im passing everything i need to, its so bloody specialised that its hard to feel confident in what im doing. feel like i know nothing! im so sorry girls, all i have done is moan :-( i havent been coming on as much as i didnt want to bore you all or bring you down! im not used to feeling this way... xxx

Woohoo Losc...
Sorry you are feeling down Mrs.... righty-ho motivation lost... lets find it again ;)
The broody feeling you can channel that into motivation-every itty bitty ounce you lose will make conceiving more likely (Im talking to a nurse here -sorry :p).... so just think by getting your oomph back and getting your ass in gear you are still working toward your goal of a baby...
Im 38 and we have been trying since we got married -so 8 years now and still nothing-but all I can do is get my body into the best shape and I mean inside and out and then leave the rest to mother nature... if you want a weight loss/baby buddy -give me a yell ;).
YOU CAN DO THIS -just look at your loss so far..so come on lass pull them socks up and focuss focuss focuss.. (thats the kick up the ass bit :p)
 
Come on Losc, you can do it, here are some positive vibes :vibes: and a big fat hug:grouphugg:

You need to lose the weight so you can have a good pregnancy and a healthy start for you and baby.

Is there anything we can help you with? Menus, recipes, ideas?
 
Louise, anyone would be feeling stressed with all that on their plate for the last few weeks! Moving house, a new job and trying for a baby are some of the most stressful things we can go through, and then add exams on top and it's no wonder that you can't concentrate on SW - something's got to give - at least for a while!

If you really feel like you can't concentrate on SW, then take a breather - set yourself an interim target of the weight that you're now at and stick to it for a few weeks/months until you feel ready to go again - that way you'll still feel in control and you won't slip up and put the weight back on...(well, that's the theory anyway!)

And feel free to come on here and have a moan - that's what we're here for, to share the good times and the bad!

Hope you feel better in yourself soon xxx
 
Sorry girls Ive been a bit distracted these last few days but I promise to be more supportive going forward. I had WI tonight and I lost 5.5 pounds but that's over two weeks as I was on holiday last week and didnt attend.

Well done to everybody who has lost .. and to Laura for surpassing her 100 pounds woohooo ... xx
 
Awww ((((Louise)))) I feel for you sweetie xxx This losing weight milarky aint always plain sailing :( Life just gets in the way from time to time, and you have had sooooo much going and still have in some areas. Moving house alone is a major stressy, so with exams and everything else............. well, it's enough to get anyone down.

Don't be hard on yourself though, you have done so well so far, and you can conquer the rest of your journey too. I completely and uttery agree with what Spanx posted about an interim target - fab advice, and if you really can't concentrate on SW right now (and I completely understand why you might not be able to) it's a perfect way to stay in control while you gather yourself together.

If you decide that an interim target is the way to go, keep popping in here, don't desert us, we are still here for you whether you're 'off plan' or 'on plan' This is just a little hiccup along the road to slimsville - it's not 'throw the towel in' time. You can do this sweetheart, even if you have a little breather, you can and will get back on the waggon.

I can't 'kick your ass' like you asked (cos I've got shoes on! Ouch! lol) because I (and I'm sure everyone else on here) completely understand how it can be sometimes.......We wouldn't all be here otherwise would we? :D

As for having a baby - I was one of the lucky ones who caught on the week after we had decided to start a family, so although I've never really 'tried' as such, (infact I've spent the biggest part of my life preventing pregnancy!) I do understand where you're coming from, it's such an overwhelming feeling for a woman, it literally consumes you. But...............all good things come to those who wait. (easy for me to say, I know) You're doing a great job preparing your body for a happy and healthy pregnancy, and you're gonna be in great shape to chase the little ankle snatcher(s) about when the time comes. :D

Sending you lots of love xxx
 
good morning lovelies:wave_cry:

thanks so much for all your lovely, supportive words.:eek: you really are a lubbly bunch of ladies and im really glad i was honest. I feel like a weight (no pun intended) has been lifted off me. so thank you to all of you. I have been hiding from here a bit as felt like a fraud coming on knowing that i was not in "the zone"!!!

an interim target is a great idea and if i am still struggling then that is what i am gonna do, but i want to try and get my head in order and give it another bash first. So today, my aim is to just have a 100% day. I can plan for tomorrow later (at the end of my 100% day!!!), just gonna take it day by day for now. I am still gonna allow 15 syns, not gonna cut back as dont want to make it harder on myself. and i have WI saturday, so not much hope for that WI! but i am gonna go anyway and deal with whatever the scales say. weighed again at home and have stayed the same so im hoping not so much damage done. the wii is out and waiting for me so will start my day with that i think.

when i first started my journey (sounds so american doesnt it!!!) i planned that i needed to lose 2lbs a week and id be at target by next may. Well my hubby just totted up again where im up to, and i now need to lose 2.2lbs a week and il still be at target at the same date. so thats made me feel miles better, like i havent really gone that far off track.phew.

have a great day everyone. be back on later to fess on how im doing!

well done again to all the losers! fab job xx
 
That's the spirit Louise :D

NEVER feel guilty for struggling though. Be kind to yourself and give yourself permission to be 'less than perfect' from time to time. We are all 'only human' and self applied pressure is counter productive. And there endeth my wise words! :giggle:

Good luck chucky egg, we're right behind you xxx

Carole - mega big sorries mi duck, completely missed you up there ^^^^. Well done on this weeks loss :clap: I'm also chasing Lauras 6 stone shiny! :p:8855:
