  • Yeah sometimes my other half will get home from work and remind me I’ve not dunk any all day! I really wish in my teens I’d binned the fizzy drinks for water and maybe now I’d manage to drink more. X
  • 2 litres of tea is right up my street! I’m not going to put any pressure on myself to be drinking so much. As long as I’m not drinking Coca Cola as much as I was, I’m happy x
  • Thanks folks. That’s put my mind at rest. I just keep thinking ‘ahh! I need to drink more water’ ‘I won’t lose as much if I’m not drinking water’ but it really is a struggle and so far nothing’s been forced or enjoyable while calorie counting so don’t want to start now. The frequent trips to the bathroom when I’m drinking…
  • My sister in law went to a PT for an upcoming wedding. She managed to drop a dress size and her weight stayed the same. I know it’s easier said that done (I’m guilty of it myself) but try not to fixate on the scales. Keep doing what your doing and don’t beat yourself up about it xx
  • Thanks lovely. Fingers crossed it just starts to fall off 😜x
  • Correction. It’s 5 miles doing the school run Monday to Friday. X
  • Thanks Shadow2soul. I’ve changed my activity level to active this afternoon so I’m interested to see how I get on. I’m itching to see the 100’s on the scale and have been hovering over 200lb for the past 2 weeks. Here’s hoping I eat more and get a wee rush on the scales 🤞🏻 x
  • Thanks ladies. I have considered getting a Fitbit. I might need to look into getting one in payday. It’s just the price that puts me off so will see if there are any deals going. The school run is a big help with my steps. Without it I’d struggle to get as many steps in. I worked it out this evening that the distance to…
  • Exactly! I keep thinking ‘more calories = weight gain’ 🙈 I also think a factor is that I’ve been spoiled with the weight coming off so quickly that now it’s slowing down I’m worrying. It’s not a Fitbit, it’s a cheap as chips tracker my sister in law got somewhere. Does the basics but I can’t link it to mfp unfortunately.…
  • Thank you for everyone’s replies and support. I had, up to this week, been using my iphone to track my steps. The school run alone (2 schools in opposite directions) would clock up to 12k. But obviously once in the house my phone would sit on the side and any steps would be missed. Also if I placed my phone inside the pram…
  • Hi Sammie, at the moment it’s between 1500-1600. I was considering upping it to 1700 after looking online but I’m fearful it’ll undo my work so far x
