well done everyone xx

Evening girls! 7.5lbs off this week, so with my 5lb last week I'm very nearly at a stone - woohoo!

Suz I'm sure it'll start moving shortly hun, just keep doing what you're doing x

Wow Jill - that's suberb! Suzky, I find it harder to shift the closer I get. I've got 8lbs to go for my goal and need a rocket up my arse!

you will lose the 8lbs soon surely.... just keep plodding on

well just been on a power walk around chester walls..... feeling good!

Hi, I've not posted on here for a while as I went a bit off track for two weeks over Easter as I had my hen night and my best friends hen night (which I organised so was a bit stressed about!) but somehow I only managed to put on 1.5lbs as I was still exercising etc. I've now lots 4lbs in the last two weeks so I'm back on track! Only 9 weeks to the wedding though, and ideally I want to lose 12 more lbs to get to target, I may get there, but if I can get at least close I'll be happy. I've just bought a bike so hopefully that will help! I just need to wait for H2B to get back from his stag do on Monday to go out on it as I've not ridden a bike for about 15 years so I want to go with him for the 1st time!

I know, I was really surprised! I was careful about what I ate and drank in between the two hen dos and did go running though so I think that saved me! Also, I didn't actually weigh myself until 5 days after I came back from the second hen do so that probably helped too!

Well I'm sat here (meant to be planning but distracted by wedmin fun) eating some melon and grapes. Made a pan of WW zero point soup and just had a bowl for lunch. Although I didn't do Zumba this week and had a headache this morning so couldn't be bothered (oops). Getting panicky at the thought of my first dress fitting in around 3 weeks !

Ooh how exciting! Did they ring you or you ring them?

Oooh where was it from? My dress shop put my wedding date as a month early to guarentee it would be in the shop in time and it is due at the end of this month. They said they would ring me but now I want to ring them ha! Although I can't actually go in until half term so there's really no point in me knowing if it's in or not!

btex..... chester branch did the same.... said the wedding date was june so its in early and it is wooooo

2lbs off this week, slow and steady, hopefully!

1lb off this week x

i've had italian and mc d's this week well and truely fell of the wagon back on it tomorrow i think!

Argh 4 weeks before the wedding and I just spent 4 days in Germany to go to a beer festival - while it was amazing, the scales tell me I've acquired 4.5 lbs!! Arghh! Better get power walking asap!

I have just come back from a weight loss boot camp and lost 5 pounds and 3 inches off my waist in 5 days! It was a low carb camp so there was no wheat, bread, pasta, cereal, rice, processed food, sugar etc and mainly meat, fish, vegetables & salads. Food was really tasty and I never felt like snacking because I was so full all the time. It's surprising but whenever I have tried the low fat diets, I always seem to feel hungry and thinking about food all the time. I would definately recommend eating a diet higher in fat & protein & lower in carbs because the weight will drop off easily and gave me a lot of energy. If anyone wants more details about this boot camp, let me know!

I have survived my first Zumba class! It was brilliant will def do it again.x

You still have time to put it right Natalie, good luck.xx

2lb off this week, 6lb to go! in 5 weeks. Hopefully I can do that...

well weigh in morning is tomo but due to having a stressful week in work I had two take a ways this week (cringe) though I didnt eat hardly anything due to stress yesterday and jumped on scales this morn and so far have lost almost a lb.... could have been more but I had to cheat and have fast food as I just didnt have time. One night I got in after 8 (bout 8.30) ridiculous this week. Back on track today. I had scrambled egg with less than a small tin of beans for lunch, and for tea I have had prawns in tom and chilli cause with 100g pasta.

oh I know what you mean, I cant fit into my hen do dress... well i can but if I sit down its GONNA rip!

well its official weigh in day and I have only lost 0.75lbs but I know why. As I said stressful week at work so two take a ways and school dinners so I am now 8st 12.5lbs. As I said, the dress is tight in the bum and hip area so I an going to try and step it up now by going the gym.
Can you let out dresses that are supposed to be skin tight?

Good luck suzky123, you can do it! :)

Thanks OleH and I truely wish you good luck with yours. Fingers crossed we can both do it :)

Jill thanks too and yes it is a pain. I thought I could extend the zip but thats not the issue as it does up but omg its tight. I can get away with giving it to her a week before I need it so I have basically two weeks but three weeks until I need to wear the dress. I am stepping it up and going gym 4 nights this week. I keep saying I will go back and never do but I am going to have to. I need to lose it all from hips and bum (the worst place aaaaaah) Good luck to both you you x

oh no, 2lbs isnt too bad it should come off hopefully soon. You still have 3 months or so. I hope they can let it out but im not sure how much spare material there is on it. I may go and take it to her this week and just get her to have a look to see if its a possibility. I ordered it in a size 8 which is normally fine because I get floaty dresses.... I didnt think about the fact this was skin tight... im such a divvy!
