    Another couple of lbs have disappeared!!

    Hi all

    Well this week has been really good, I've lost 3 lbs!! Normally I just plod along at one pound or even half a pound a week, which I am fine about, but this week I seemed to have had a big jump to 3 pounds!! I'm soo happy!

    I can honestly say that since re-starting back in August I have been say 95% good! The 5% would have to be the odd coffee!!!

    I also think doing the 6 week exercise challenge has helped too - I bought a pair of trousers just before I started the exercise challenge which fitted nicely, I'm now having to pull them up all the time, they've gone that big on me!!! So I think I'll stop buying clothes for a couple more weeks.

    Can I please thank everybody on here - Its reading everyone elses hint, tips and success stories that keeps me so positive.

    How refreshing to read someone talking about trousers! A good old fashioned British term. None of this "pants" talk.

    Great news Jane I am really pleased for you. Keep up the excellent work.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

      I'm wearing the said trousers today - but I've had to put really high heals on with them so they don't trail along the floor!!!

        Jane, congratulations. The longer you go on your weight loss journey, you'll see the weight go in big chunks. I'm not sure why. You'll go along not losing and then all of a sudden a big drop.

        I'm close to goal now and I get a big drop and then a gain and then a big drop back down again.

        You may also find that your body will be smaller at a higher weight than it was in the past. I weigh 10 lbs more than I did in high school, but I'm wearing a smaller size.

        Your pictures are beautiful by the way!

          Wow Jane! 3 pounds is awesome! You had a whooshie!

          I'm so happy for you! Way to go!
          Did you do anything different this week? Drink more water or extra exercise?

            Thanks Joy - I must be honest, I've noticed I'm getting into clothes that last time I wore them I was probably another 7-14 lbs lighter - how strange is that!! I love your pics too - you remind me of Elizabeth Shue out of Cocktail with Tom Crusie!! hehe!!

            Tamariah - I cant think of anything I've really done that differently this week - I always drink my water. I might not have eaten as much cheese as normal, thats about it really - I just love cheese!! lol

                    Congratulations. Good job. I am not buying any clothes right now because I just found a whole new wardrobe way back in the back of my closet of clothes I have not been able to wear for the last 3 years. LOL

                    Hey Rich over/down here in Texas those trousers/pants would be britches. She'd be be pullin up her britches all day. haha
