Afternoon all!

Went back to class today, I've been putting it off for weeks. Good news was only 1 pound on and I've bought the 10 week pass so I'm all sorted. Have signed up for Jazz classes which start on Wednesday. I'm just in the beginners class but they say it's a high energy workout so here's hoping!

Away to plan everything out for the week and catch up with how everyone has been doing! xx

Hi everyone

Not a good day for me today - my favourite uncle died. He has been ill for a long time but it does not make it any easier. Have been stuffing my face today.

Awww Ainey I'm really sorry, its so hard to be good when your hurting dont add to the upset, just do what you can - PeP and The Musketeers will be here when your ready to get back on the wagon 1983.gif

Russ and I had a lovely night last night, show was good, it was a nice night and we had a wander in town, ended up having a bite to eat (even though we had early dinner before we went our shucks.gif ) so yest turned into a "no -count day", not a bad thing though. Its not as if we do stuff like that every day and its probably time I was relaxing more with my cx and approch to food.........the control freak in me y_evil.gif is not always a good thing!

The plan today is Pump at 10.45, girlie shopping with my sister this afternoon, she is 22 weeks pregnant and its her birthday next week so we are going clothes shopping for her pressie - she has nothing nice that fits her and she is away on a spa weekend for her friends hen night soon so wants some bits and pieces. Russ has the boys. Not sure if we are lunching in or out but its take away for dinner so I had better be good in between.

Speaking of boys - my wee man is getting so clever, he has started asking to use his potty, we are not actively potty training yet but he is now recognising when he needs to go (before he goes) and is asking for it. So I bought him some pull ups yest to make it easier to get him on and off the potty. Love the pride in his wee face when he gets it right 1983.gif

Right off to amend charts and have a nose x
elle
Aw Ainey, you know where we are... hug.gif hug.gif hug.gif

Jaci sounds like you have a very clever wee Mack 1983.gif
You will get to grips maintaining, I think it is just hard to relinquish control. Don't worry to much, you have been doing a fab job so far!!

Audrey feel better soon! You too Paula hug.gif

Well done on all the losses this week! Doing brilliantly ladies! 2thumbs.gif

Well I finally managed to lose something-just the 1lb from last week but its better than nothing! Also measured myself and I've lost 2inches from my hip, 2 from my waist and 1 from my hips so I must be doing somat right!

Feel like I am coming down with a cold though-trying to fend it off. I was just starting to feel better... pinch.gif

Got loads of wedding stuff done friday and yesterday. Table center pieces, ivy garlands for the staircase, ordered balloon decorations for the evening room, got sparkly bits for making corsages, picked most of the music and downloaded it and heading over to my mum's for a girly afternoon. Just waiting on the photographer to get back to me and we need to finish our vows and we are pretty much there smile.gif

I've also been granted permission by the registrar office to have my (step-)dad on the marriage schedual instead of my birth father who I've never actually met. It means so much to me wub.gif I didn't tell him until after I got the letter back in case they said no and he is really chuffed, apparently it made him cry once he came off the phone... Aw hug.gif

Probably should stop boring you with my nonsense so off to check out the board.

Have a lovely sunday
xx
Miss Broxi
Awww Elle - you nearly made me cry, I'm such a big wuss when it comes to weddings - love them, just so special, the start of a new chapter and probably thee only day you really get everyone you love together at the same time just for you (without you acuallt being dead of course confused.gif )

I cant wait to see your pics, glad everything is coming together nicely 2thumbs.gif

xx
elle
Aw, thanks Jaci. I know, my aunty is actually coming over from canada for the wedding. I can't believe how excited I'm getting about it all 1983.gif Berto is the same, and he is getting completely stuck in. He made up the table centers smile.gif

The only wee black spot is that my best friend wont be able to come. She is the girl ho lost her hubby suddenly last month, and while I completely understand why she doesn't want to come I'm still really sad she wont be there...

Good morning ladies smile.gif

well, after my wee night out on Friday - I was very, very ill yesterday. Self inflicted I know, but I have never been sick like that from alcohol for years. And I thought I had been quite sensible on Friday too - obviously not eh?!! I wont be drinking again for a very long time!

Anyway - just a quick hello, off to Dundee in a bit 2thumbs.gif

I am bushed! Had a great sleep last night but over an hour at the gym coupled with an afternoon cleaning frenzy and I am honestly ready for my bed again!

Ainey hug.gif

Elle well done on the inch loss! 2thumbs.gif Good to hear your wedding bits and pieces are coming together. It's a shame your friend won't be able to come. Maybe she'll change her mind nearer the time?

Morning My Fellow Musketeers smile.gif

grouphug.gifgrouphug.gifgrouphug.gifgrouphug.gif for you Ainey

Just a "quickie" y_whistle.gif waiting for OH to come back from his morning walk, then we are nipping into Elgin for a fitting for his kilt that he is having made, even though I say it myself he looks really good in a kilt 1983.gif

Anti/b's finished, feeling better, so looks like it was an infection and nothing else, thank goodness 2thumbs.gif

Oh! that's him, as a certain "actor" once said "I'll be back" laugh.gif

Have a good Monday butterfly.gif

Suzanne_Hwang
Just checking in. I lost a pound which is pretty miraculous considering I've been fighting a cold and needed to resort to pain killers and had a wee bit extra Chinese takeaway on Saturday. Also, I have lost an inch off my gigantic hips and half an inch off my bust (which I really didn't want to happen...LOL). Still waiting for my waist to start shrinking though. I've got an impressive scar in my waist area from the appendix operation so I'm not in any rush to do anything too adventurous yet. But I think more movement and exercise wouldn't go amiss.

Glad to hear you are feeling better, Audrey. Hope you are coping, Ainey, with your loss. hug.gif Sorry if I don't mention everybody by name. I'm still getting to know some of the people's names here. Here's to a successful weight loss week for everybody! All for one and one for all!! grouphug.gif

Good Morning Lovelies

Great losses Lorraine and Suzanne - well done ladies 2thumbs.gif

Rosie I'm with you and glad its Monday and a new week......my weekend has been AWFUL on the eating front y_whistle.gif but was great in every other way so its a Bank Holiday today and I'm off...and I'm being good. I enjoyed a longer lie and I'm off to Pump in 10 mins then home to "gut" the kitchen and livingroom and wash the floors then I'll collect Mack, make dinner before Attack at 6pm. Pump is a sneaky extra today - bit of damage limitation lolll.

Off to update charts and have a nose

Hi everyone

Firstly thank you for your messages of support. Don't know when the funeral is going to be but i think it will be this week sometime...................

I have got to stop stuffing my face. I have been like this since Friday. However, i am pledging for a better day today. Went shopping today and bought myself a new jacket, scarf, bracelet and earings. Sainsburys has 25% off today........ Kids are at school, hubby is working for a little while and i am enjoying the peace and quiet. My ankle is still sore so will give it a bit more of a rest then i think i might need to go to the drs.

Glad you are feeling a bit better - Audrey

Back later

Fell off wagon in the early hours of Monday and raided choc machine, won't bore you with gory details suffice to say I'm back on track and am several quid worse off .

Hope you all had a good weekend, 6 nights down, one to go 2thumbs.gif
ainey
Hi everyone

The funeral is on Friday and i am dreading it. My eating has been horrendous - the least thing to face me and i resort to food. Supposed to go to class on Thursday and i weighed myself this morning in the house to see what the damage was and I have gained about 4lbs. I know there will be differences between scales and it is naughty to scale hop but i have definately gained something. I am pondering about going to class or not or maybe i should just explain that i have received bad news............

My TOTM is all over the place at the moment. I have got really bad fluid retention again and it has just been 2 weeks since the last TOTM........

Well done on getting back on track Kop Queen.

Ainey

Morning all,

Not much exciting to report here! Had zumba last night, there were almost 40 people in the class! It was crazy and the instructor seemed really surprised as well. The routine was good, I was sweating by the end (a sign of a good workout) and my thighs feel a bit tight this morning! Getting my hair done after work and then I have my first Jazz class, here's hoping it's as good as zumba!

Will catch up later, have a good day everyone! xx

Suzanne_Hwang
Flick and Miss Broxi: you are both winners because you've both been fantastic losers! The decision to lose weight, the process of losing it and the changes that one goes through are truly amazing. It's a life changing event and a process of discovery. My hats off to you both and to all the contestants.

Kop Queen: painkillers and antibiotics will slow down your metabolism. Just take it easy and once you are feeling better the weight will come off. Don't give up!!!

Keep Diet Fighting, Musketeers! dwarf.gif
