Thanks spoony
Happy belated anniversary and happy birthday for Tues (fingers crossed you'll be the proud owner of a new shiny sticker, but if not I'm sure you'll get it the following week).
Thanks for the advice...and you're absolutely right. Up til a week ago I would've said that I was following the plan and that I couldn't understand why it had stopped working. But last week I decided to go back to basics, weigh everything I should (surprising how off you can be when guesstimating cheese!) and measure and stick to my milk allowance and write everything down etc and, lo and behold, I lost 3.5lbs on Wednesday! Think I'd just got lazy and complacent (still at least I can say I know how to maintain!).
Not expecting to lose this week as I had my birthday on Thursday and got big family bbq tonight and a christening tomorrow but life just gets in the way sometimes, doesn't it. I'll be happy with a maintain on weds Tbh. It's taken me nearly 2yrs to lose 7st 2lbs (reckon another 4 to 7lbs and I'll call target) but, for me, it's been important to enjoy 'life' along the way. I'm in awe of those people who don't let parties, holidays and the dreaded 'beige' food of buffets deviate them but I know being that strict on myself wouldn't work. I dare say I could've got to target 6mths ago if I were able to be so strict but I suppose we're all different.
