Yeah, it's been a real boost. I find it really 'hard' to see if I've lost weight on my tummy, but I can't argue with a tape measure. I'm obviously getting smaller. I remember Emma mentioned an app you can use to measure inches lost using pictures. Called Bodyshot or something. I couldn't find it in the android app store in Korea, but it might be worth a look. Speaking of which, where IS Emma? Everyone's gone AWOL!Amazing, especially your waist. What a difference! I wish I had bothered to measure myself at the beginning. Well done you, how satisfying that must be.
Right - its Friday (weigh day) and thankfully I am back at 8st 9lb (2 lb to target)
So I have lost most of the holiday lbs now but honestly I didn't deserve to as I haven't been 100% since I got back - haven't had the money to buy much food so been eating less than usual fruit and veggies etc.
AND it's lady fun week so I won't hold my breath for a loss next week tbh as it will prob catch up in me. BUT I am slowly getting the hang of it again and I have been 100% today despite going to my parents for dinner (bless my step-mum).
I need to keep focus so I don't throw this week away!!

Good work Sparty. I honestly don't believe we lose weight magically (think about how hard it is normally) so you've obviously done something right. It is awesome that you are close to Target! Keep it up and you'll be there soon!

Got to shoot off now - work to do (boring) but will be back later and will be posting some before, during and after pics, along with my feet on the scales showing 10 stone - when I can work out how to do it!
I've only gone and bloody done it!
