Great ideas! Thanks for sharing. I may need to print these out, they are so spot on! my one is to think of an event in the future - say a family wedding, or Christmas.... Now fast forward from that event and look at the pictures in your mind. Are you looking great? Are you happy with you success thus far? How do you feel…

Ps check my pic out.... Run...sweetie, the bar is going to close...think of the wine, sweetie. RUN!

Sitting here with my 2nd glass of wine.....aahhhhhhh! Friday-night-wine-time nothing to beat it! Relaxing after a week, kids in bed, just about to put a film on with hubby, loosing just over 1lb a week, life is good! I know weight loss could be faster, but I don't think it would be sustainable! The relax factor needs to be…

Congratulations to you all for remaining focused, and your weight loss! I am motivated once again, weighing less than I did this time last year, but more than I did in the summer....bad days turn into weeks.... I hope that everyone in this group has a wonderful year! Mrs tattie x
-
Sorry, folks, been AWOL for a while. Gained a couple of lbs since last weigh in. I think 2, but got confused. Back to it, although kids are on hols which makes exercise hard! Well done to all the weight loss, sorry to be bringing average back up! Mrs tattie
-
I'm loving all the excused / reasons in here folks!!!! Come on - 6 more days till the next weigh in!!!!!! I have a bottle of motivation which was taken from a surplus back in January...............now if I could just find it I could make a fortune!!!!! Keep the end in sight - long haul and remember how you are going to…
-
HHHmmm, ok, right direction, but not very fast - only self to blame. Well, cold to blame - I just never feel like exercising when I am stuffed up. But, hey look on bright side, under 160 lbs!!!!! Didn't take a new pic, so it is 11-5.8...massive loss of .4lb
-
WHooooo hooooo the saturday folk!!!!!! I have refrained from weighing myself all week, ready to jump on the scales on Monday....HHHHmmmmm that sounds good, doesn't it? But I am sitting here with wine...... Been a good week exercise wise, so-so food wise and then there is wine.............. Ah well, got a hike planned for…

This thread is great! I just want a holiday in the USA NOW so I can buy clothes with a smaller size label on them ( I think you are minus 4 or even 6 from us - so a UK 14 is a US 8??) To me anything below size 6 sounds like you are 10 years old and not healthy!!!! (don't start ranting, I know this is not the case, and I…

If I am going out for lunch or dinner I have a glass of wine. Simple!
-
I have a full glass of Diet Coke in front of me and I was just browsing the message board for 5 mins! Hysterical. Personally I don't really like water unless I am exercising and I also do not like tea. Coffee needs so much sugar for it to be palatable to me. I don't really see it as a problem apart from cost. Enjoy - just…

I have a friend who is about 120 lbs - we have just lost her!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whooo hooooooo go us!!!!!!!
-
I would quite happily loose my 2-year-old at the moment....but that has got nothing to do with weight and is another story!!! If you are a vegetarian, you should probably stop reading now!!!! For the rest of you... Tonight we had a roast beef supper (on a Tue, tut, tut, I know!) and what always amazes me is how big a lump…
-
haha Lottie Lou! That has brightened up my Monday!! Just shows what difference a day can make. Did you have to kick the scales around the bathroom? (and remember to log that as exercise!) whoooo hoooo, well done for reaching your mini goal!
-
1lb down this week! I thought it would be more due to not eating much (ill and tooth out) plus quite an active weekend! But under 11 and half! 11-6.2 or 160.2
-
we have lost 89 lbs! Well done folks!
-
161.2 I am still slightly annoyed that I weighed less then this in June, but now delighted that I am back on track and going back down! Didn't weigh last week and so this is 1.8 loss in 2 weeks. Well done folks!
-
I wish there was a "like" button......I actually have to admit to joining another group before this one - same day I think. I have not joined a group before and didn't really know what to do/expect! The excel is great for this group x
-
Well done Helenoftroy (HOT!) and thanks again for the admin of this!
-
Didn't weigh myself this week as we were away for a long weekend at a wedding....now hubby is away which makes exercise hard as we have 3 wee kiddies (not impossible - just got to get the DVDs going) I am not going on scales till Monday as I know it won't be good until then! Well done to everyone!
-
Christmas is banned in our house till 5th Dec as our son's B'day is 4th! I hate Christmas before Halloween in the shops!
-
I sprinkle cinnamon in my porridge.....because it tastes good - now I can be very smug knowing that it is actually good for me too! Thanks for that info! What is your source BTW?
-
group total - I like that! For info - My ticker is from the start of Jan...and my profile pic of the scales is "wrong" - I was taking a pic each week in the spring...but I went up over the summer and so my pic is there for motivation now! I like Helenoftroy's ticker with Santa - although perhaps he could loose a few lbs!

Being married to a tattie farmer I have to say POTATOES! Just go easy on the butter or cheese! Make your own chips. Enjoy a baked tattie, new potatoes, HHHmmmmm yum yum yes please! http://www.manyfacesofpotatoes.com/uk/nutrition/potatoes/ Potatoes are a starchy food, which means they are a source of energy as well as…

thanks for setting this up and for the admin! Good luck folks! The leaves are already turning and so there is no time like NOW :) (as I sip my wine, following my steak dinner! I love Saturdays!!) Mrs Tattie
-
ps my pic is wrong - i am using it for motivation just now!

Hi there. I am back to MFP after a wee break. I had lost a stone and a half this year 12-12 down to 11-4. I even did a 5kkm run for charity! After that I lost a bit of motivation and then summer came - kids off school = snacking and wine Friday became wine Thursday/Fri/Sat and sometimes Sunday. My exercise levels have also…

Thanks for the people for replying to my previous comment. Just a quick question, I'm curious, and mean nothing by this. Do you ever travel to Europe, Canada, Australia NZ etc where the general population do not routinely carry weapons? How safe do you feel in, say, Paris or Edinburgh. I know that "bad" people are…
-
I am scared reading this thread. If you need to carry a weapon to go about your normal business (and I take running to be normal business) the states is in a far worse place than I thought it was. The more people who carry weapons really increases the likelihood of someone getting hurt or killed. Wow, this thread is…
-
This is great for me just now - I have been consistently loosing just over a lb a week for the last 8 weeks or 10 weeks ...and then suddenly half a pound in 2 weeks...Haha the dreaded plateau. I have had 3 compliments this week and started running 2 weeks ago. I feel great! Obviously I wish the scales felt as good as me,…
