    i know i have been missing for months but just wanted to say i'm back.

    And some very good news as well. Started dieting again last monday and got on the scales for the first time today and have lost 7lbs in 10 days.
    Now i know every week wont be like this but it's a very good confidence builder.

    Hope all is well with everyone else.

    HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!!

    So... I got my revised timetable for the trains next week into London, and there are NO trains at all going to London from where I live. Great!! On a positive note it means I might not be able to get into work, but also I will be pulling my hair out bored at home. Boo.

    How is everyone?

    Looking forward to my 4 day weekend :)

    All the best, Love Tanya :heart: x

    Hello everyone - we are in april already - and if you are in London -it is sunny - Makes me want to play outside!

    Good news - I can run again - I ran for 15 mins last night - not very fast - but I did it none the less!

    Tanye - its good not to come into the office - it means as soon as you finish you can hit the gym - or you can go in the morning b4 you start - I love working from home - I can't wait til next week :)

    Anyway - Aim this month is to get down to 85kgs for my birthday - which will be 187lb - which means I would have lost 18lbs since joining - wish me luck!

    Enjoy the long weekend and don't eat too much chocolate!

    Heading over to the Newcastle area in January of next year for a 6 month chemistry stint at the university of Newcastle. Working on getting myself into hsape before arrival. I thought "team UK" would be a fun place to say hello early ... before I arrive. ... anyway. Hello UK. On my way there soon.

    The last 10 pounds is the hardest apparently, and that is why I am struggling to lose. I weigh 9 stone 7, well I did, but the scales tell me this morning I weight 9 stone 10 again. GAH! But I want to lose 10 lbs but it just isn't budging!

    Best of luck! :flowerforyou:

    OMG it is April already. that means only 7 weeks left before the holiday. I will really have to step it up a gear this month if I want to reach my goal. for this month I will be happy if I can lose 5-7 lbs. The will take me under the 15 stone mark which I have not been for a long time.

    I hope everyone enjoys the the Easter weekend and you all reach your goals for the month.

    take care

    Afternoon all!!!

    What a morning!!! Been running around like a headless chicken all over town running errands, but they're all done now so i can chill out for the rest of the loooooong bank holiday w/end.
    I think this weekend is just going to be baaaaaaaaaad! It's my friend's 30th birthday tomorrow, so on Friday we are going for drinks in Guildford. I think I've more or less decided to try not to drink anything that night. Once I have one I can't stop! Saturday should be ok because we're at home and I'm going to go to the gym. Sunday is going to be the killer. Going home to visit the rentals, but because they're divorced it's lunch at dad's and dinner at mum's. It will be two full on meals with pud and then there's the easter chocolate and the wine! I'm going to try and maintain at least...I think that is the best I can hope for!

    Erika - just enjoy yourself, try not to over do things but don't beat yourself up if you do. Once in a while won't hurt, it's if it becomes a regular habit that the lbs start to pile back on - that's my thinking on the topic
    And some very good news as well. Started dieting again last monday and got on the scales for the first time today and have lost 7lbs in 10 days.
    Now i know every week wont be like this but it's a very good confidence builder.
    James - well done!!! I lost 5.5lbs the first week I started to watch what I eat, my weight loss since has been in the region of 1 - 2lbs a week - which I'm more than happy with.
    We have a box of Cadbury Cream eggs in the office.. I want to go and hide them around the building for people to just find
    That sounds sooo much fun Katherine, you should've done it, and bah humbug to the miserable bat sat next to you :wink: My ex-boss told me they did the same in the office today....they weren't so much fun when I was working there!!

    Enough from me for now, I'll be back when I can,

    thanks sweety.

    Right what can i do to get you motivated?:indifferent:
    Maybe as we are two months off summer and i'm sure u have a holiday away planned. you could think of gorgeous sunshine, baking hot weather where u can show off you stunning new figure. got an image? i sure have. lol

    I'll give you a txt tomoz and hopefully we can get u motivated again. Seeing as your always here for me is the least i can do. xx

    I'm still very proud of you still.

    James x:happy:
