Yeah Carly just under 5'4". I am heading to 170, slowly sometimes, but that is where I am heading to. Feels more realistic right now :)

Glad it went well Julie, rest up :)

WOOHOOOOO wtg. I too am aiming for the overweight class, cannot imagine being 145lbs which is the highest range for my height. You must feel so great right now! Well done on working so hard at it, getting it done in a year takes some dedication and hard work. Please reward yourself or do something to celebrate, that is…

Do it!! lol Come on, you are nearly at 100lbs gone. When you get there you need to get your hair done.

Pat did you get a hair cut yet? With all your progress and clothes sorting I hope you did! x

That is fantastic Pat.

Added you :)

No C, I am talking a couple of people who posted drama filled posts for the sake of getting attention, alll the time.

I am the same, went in a couple of Christmases ago because of an asthma attack, ended up on bp meds. Lost weight, kept on the meds and put on cholesterol meds. Also am pre-diabetic so have to check my sugar levels but so far the new food plan does keep those within ok levels without needing meds. I like Pat's way of…

Thanks all for the support, and thanks for the pm I did get it and you are right making better choices for me is part of being a better and healthier mum for Dean. I still do not sleep great - I actually went to nap at 10am yesterday and ended up sleeping till 2pm!! Dean is back to school and life is back to the routine so…

Pat what happened to your farmer's market, salads, fruits. I thought you were doing good on all that. Soz not in the challenge but you all made me giggle and feel a sense of relief that it is not just me that finds such a simple thing so darn hard! x

Bloody hell you crazy man ;) Amazing but damn crazy lol

I have lost a portable photo booth and an Imperial state crown (far more interesting than the Ipad). Not bad!

Hi Pat, I have done the same as you, ordered some bits online and picked up a couple of things when shopping for DS, and the too big stuff got sent to a charity shop. Just don't spend a fortune on new stuff as you WILL be shrinking out of that stuff one day too :) Wtg, I think the whole clearing out of larger clothes is a…

Hi Pat, after a couple of days of umming and ahhing I think it might cause some ill feelings if I joined that challenge but good luck and what a great prize!! Very generous donation. I might play along from home just to use it to re-motivate me :)
-
Hmm link doesn't work for me. But good luck with that to any who join. I am not having a good week at all, after a string of so so weeks. Saw my dad last weekend for the first time in 12 years, he came to Montreal for a weekend to see me, meet Dean and my DH for the first time. It went very well, Dean and Dad instantly…

Scuba wtg on getting into the normal range! My NSV this week has been not eating my anxiety. I am seeing my dad for the first time in about 12 years this weekend. He is flying with his partner to visit her family in Ontario then they are flying to Qc to visit this weekend. My Dad and I have a very rocky history since he…

Lovely pics Pat and well done, what an amazing hike. I do not know if I could have done that!
-
lol I am sure if you need to let something out no-one would object :)

Morning Julie. No special weekend here just groceries to do, persuading my DH to play badminton, getting Dean's school bag ready. He starts Tuesday but today is when we get the things ready, tomorrow we make cookies together and we get him ready :)

Great Pat wtg!!

Up to the age of about 4 or 5 I was slim as a child. Between 5 and 7 something happened (I do not mean literally) and I started getting chubby. From there the weight just kept creeping on, I was teased at Primary school, bullied at Secondary. I stayed a virgin till the ripe old age of 30 because I was too ashamed of my…

Totally agree on the yoghurt thing. If there was a like button I'd have clicked it!

Does he need to drive for the job, if yes I think it is fair enough. If no then that is ridiculous. No advice as I do not know the system over there but sending a hug. Congrats on the new grandchild Julie, I like Persistents idea of not having them see her as the fat aunt. Maybe you can use that to track yourself to a…

Salty things taste a lot saltier now for sure. I still have a sweet tooth and love deserts but if I decide I have the cals or it is an occasion when I can indulge I find I cannot eat as much of a sweet thing as I used to. For example I could happily eat a huge fudgy brownie with ice cream and cream and syrup etc all to…

Using stairs without having to hang on the rail because of my knee. Playing with Dean. Not needing my asthma pump as much.

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/asian-tuna-patties/ I made them once for the same reason, had a lot of cans and was tired of the salad or the sandwich! They are surprisngly (imo) not bad! I didnt have sesame oil so used olive oil. And I used spray oil to cook them so cut the cals there.…

Morning bubbly Carly :) Well what keeps me going is I cannot and will not accept that everything I have done and given to this change would be for nothing. Also when I decided to try and lose the weight my son was 3 and a half and out running me. I wanted to give him a mum that could move. I thought I could do this quicker…

Right now I do not work exactly, I just do some part time stuff typing at home. This is good because I can spend a lot of time thinking about meals, and so on, I have time to plan ahead rather than track after the fact. It also means I have time for exercise, I am just a lazy bum sometimes about still doing it. But not…
