Hi folks, how are you all doing? Well I hope.

This will be the last class I'll be doing until I maybe make an appearance over Christmas time if our new Online Class leaders kateyboo and rebelsue2 will let me! kateyboo and rebelsue2 will be taking over and doing alternate weeks from next week and I'm sure that they will both do a superb job - Good luck girls and thank you!    . 

Now the wee "talk" today will be on how to maintain our target weight when we get there. Well, firstly we need to gradually and emphasis on the word gradually, increase our checks over a few weeks to the weight we are in kilos, for example, if we are 60 kgs in weight then we can allow ourselves to have 60 checks per day for the rest of our lives without hopefully putting on any weight. We must however, continue exercising, eating healthily and making wise choices when eating out or having guests over or going over to other peoples houses for drinks/meals.

It's very easy to become nonchalent and think that now you've reached target you can go back to how you were eating before you joined SS, but if you do this you know the weight will just come back on again and you'll be back to square one and we don't want that do we? So come on, try and keep motivated after reaching target too and you'll keep the weight off for many years to come, (if you slip up however SS will be here to welcome you back with open arms).

Talking of target weight, we have one Online Class member who has consistently done well over the weeks and now has reached his target weight and that is PETE ! Well done Pete!!! You've been an inspiration to us all and we all hope that you can keep the weight off, I'm sure you will with your continued determination, healthy eating and exercise.   

Other STARS of the week include: dying_angel who lost a remarkable 4 and a half pounds!!! Well done you!! Our two new ladies Suzanne_Hwang and Kop Queen lost 5lbs and 7lbs respectively and our two new Online Class leaders from next week lost 3lbs each, way to go girls!!!          .

Everyone has done well this week though, with almost 2 STONES in weight being lost between us, only a pound gain and a few sts!!! 

CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE !!!! Keep it up!!!      .

What a week to end on! Keep the positivity up and for a final time from me, I'm going to say...Lets be having you..

GOOD LUCK to you all and thanks for having me over the last five months and a special thank you to Tracey too for all her hard work and filling in for me from time to time - thanks Trace. Take care, Catrina. x  .

Hi Catrina,

Well, I've lost 2 pounds this week so that means that I've already reached my first target! Altogether I've lost half a stone. Onwards and downwards to the next target

All the best in the future and I hope all your goals and dreams become a reality. I'm looking forward to rebelsue and kateyboo taking over.

And well done to dying_angel, Kop Queen and Pete!

Well done Suzanne on your loss

Excellent!!! Well done you!!  . Thanks for your best wishes and I'm also looking forward to rebelsue2 and kateyboo taking over (even though I'll miss you all) and will be having a sneaky peek now and again on the Online Class!  .


Congratulations on reaching your first mini target and as you say onwards and downwards to your next!

All the very best. Love, Catrina. xxx.

Hi folks
Well this weekend i was away in Liverpool for the football and treated myself to some ice cream,Burgers and chips,but i did walk from Liverpool stadium to the docks and must of walked round Manchester airport 3 times,so i think i deserved it

Back to reality yesterday and my weigh in saw a 3lbs loss,so happy with that
Next huge task is Germany for 5 days in Sept,i am not going to be concerned about what i eat,just how much and make sure i walk loads to burn the cals off

All the best

Brilliant Tracy

Hello everyone

0.5lb loss for me this week, bit dissappointed I have been so good and have upped my excerise regime, so not sure what's going on. I feel like I have put on as my clothes are a liitle tight, maybe water retention, but who would know

Ah, don't worry simmyhx, some weeks are just like that aren't they? Our bodies are strange things, try and keep positive and maybe by next week you will have lost more. Take care, Catrina. x  .

Sorry everyone sts for me this week!
Usual totm situation!!

Hopefully be better next week!!

Xx

Aww, never mind rebelsue2, its almost impossible losing anything when we're due our periods isn't it ? Or when we actually have them sometimes. Good luck for next week! Take care. Love, Catrina. x  .

Aye, true, I have been around for a while, been "faffing around" for the past few months, decided enough was enough, so went "back to basics".

Thought you were leaving us?

Yeah, I am leaving. This will be the last class I'll be doing, will maybe make an appearance at Christmas time.  . Good luck for your new plan of going "back to basics", wish you every success in the future. Lots of love, Catrina. xxx

 Hi folks, I am ending the Online Class early today as my subscription runs out at some point today and I would like to wish you all the very best of luck while I still can.

I am sure that kateyboo and rebelsue2 will do an excellent job and I have every faith in them and you.

Hope that you are enjoying this sunny weather if you are living up in the Moray area like me and anywhere else where the weather is being kind to us.



It has been an absolute pleasure doing the Online Class for the last five months and thank you for letting me.

Take care everyone. Lots of love, Catrina. xxx
