Back on for phase 2! :-)

Just missed the 4st mark this week! 1lb short. But still another 2lb closer!

Bought myself a size 12 skirt this week and was pleasantly surprised that I got it on! Got a pair of 12 jeans on but not done up! :-)

That's almost 4 dress sizes down! Happy days!

Have a good week all. :-) xxx

Hi Joy,

Doesn't that just sound so lovely. "Do you have this in a Size 12, please"

What size where you at the start of your journey?

It's getting that time that we feel a home maker over is on the cards, how about some new pictures or little bits and bobs to give it a fresh look.

Go mad, plant a couple of planters up with one seed for every 1lb you've lost. In Spring you will seem them bloom and think each flower represents a pound of your fat

  

I have resisted! I'm being a good girl! Results are too amazing for me to give in. lol

Would love to decorate, my house could seriously do with cheering up, unfortuntely I rent so can't. :-( I do however have plenty of new seeds to plant ready for my veggie patch this year. I'll be able to enjoy lots of home grown fresh veg this year. So best get on with it this weekend. :-)

Am going to have a trip around the charity shops this weekend and see what bargains I can find in size 12. That will give me a bit of a boost. :-)

That's a no no to the stew and bread - what's wrong with our lovely hot meals? lol..

Have to agree that this time of year is difficult to stay focused. But you sailed through the Christmas period and those baggy clothes must make it all well worth it. You'll soon be at the next size down! - which is the best way to go xx

We agree with you about the weather. Together with all the news telling us about Blue Monday and January being depressing. Best to have a news blackout and get on with something more exciting. Some of us in the office have started to decorate our houses. Just changing a colour scheme or having a change around is a real energy boost and totally lifts your spirits.
  

Hey, fingers crossed for better weather. It's freezing down here at the mo, and I'm sooooo sick of rain. Am struggling a little this week what with the weather. Could quite happily sit down to a big bowl of stew and fresh bread! lol

Anyway, am trying to stay strong and looking forward to my meeting with the scales again on sunday. My size 14's are getting quite a bit looser! :-) xx

Hi Joy.

We're still here and agree it's gone very quiet. At least we have you to help keep our KeeBees motivated.

And well done to you for losing even more last week. It won't be long until the better weather arrives (fingers crossed) and we all shed those comfy cardigans and overcoats! Think of those lovely shopping trips where you'll be able to buy what you want instead of what just fits.

Enjoy the rest of your week.  

Where is everyone? It's been so quiet on here this week. Hope everyone's doing ok. :-) xx

Yay! 3.5lb this week! Happy days.   

And I got into a pair of trousers I bought a couple of weeks ago. A very snug pair of jeans when I got them but now comfy.

29lb to go to target! :-)

xxxx

 

Ok, so have got the tape measure out and taken my measurements! Am amazed! Have lost a total of 32"! 7 of them off my waist alone. Have redone my bmi and have gone from 37.5 which is obese to 29.2 which is overweight!

What a boost! Here's to a good week ahead.

Thanks Imp :-)

Was happy yesterday coz I got a pair of jeans on that had been tight before. Might go find the tape measure and see what that says. :-)

You get weeks like that and yes it is incredibly depressing - but I learned at LL that often you have lost inches not pounds as your body adjusts and water retention fluctuates. Try putting on a pair of previously tight jeans or something - or measuring! Bet you will feel better then celebrate with a nice glass of water!!!

Week 2 weigh in -0lb! Not an oz off! Very disappointed and cant understand why. :-(

Haven't eaten anything I shouldn't have, I have had a couple of days where my water intake wasn't as much as it should be but otherwise all normal!

Feeling a bit frustrated. Have had a few days this week where I'm really hungry and others where I don't feel hungry at all. Plus have been really tired but put that down to a stressful week at work.

:-( Well at least the sun's shining today!

Hi Joy, Ah thanks, we do try, we love chatting as well. We find the forum is a great place to keep in contact and gives you the opportunity to really get to hear others stories in more details, Facebook is great but generally short and sharp, although great for any motivational messages we find to hopefully spur everyone one. The best being "Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels"

Although you already know that

All the best keep up all the good work and it is a real pleasure to have you in our gang xx
  

Hi,

I'm doing the Rapid Burn again. Just because I know I'll see good results and I'm happy that way.

I love chatting to others on here, nothing like talking to someone who's going through the same thing, especially when they are living proof it works! :-)

Thanks for your support too! None of us could do this without you guys! :-)

Hi Joy, What a journey, and so many well done's for not giving in at Christmas, so much damage can be done and we often hear that it's March already before someone has managed to get back to their pre Christmas weight, just because of the old habits reappearing and the cold weather

With your determination you can do this, are you following the Rapid Burn Plan again in your Phase 2 or one of our other plans ?

All the best, thanks for giving everyone your support on here, you'll be surprised how much it means to everyone xx
  

Happy days! On the first weigh in for the second phase I have lost 7.5lb. Very pleased with that!
Seeing the amount lost showing more than the amout to lose is a great boost!

Hope everyone is having a good week!

Joy xx

Hi all,

After a planned break for December I'm back in the flow for phase 2 and the final 2-3 stone.
Amazingly I didn't put anything on and really enjoyed a Christmas break. Looking forward to seeing those pounds drop off again now.

Hope everyone had a good Christmas and good luck with your journey!

:-) x
