Loss Kg: +1.0KG!!!!!!!!!!!! AARGGHHH
Loss %:

Well, suffice to say I am totally bummed. Over the weekend I put on 1 kg! and now back at the top of the 78's........ I guess I've had at least 1 meal out a day since Wednesday last week and it all adds up. and it is also some water retention and hormonal issues.
But I am very frustrated! Out again for lunch today and dinner tonight. So, not looking forward to the scales tomorrow!

Mmmm, when I weighed this morning, I thought I'd lost a couple of grams, but I see that i was actually 78.1kg yesterday... bugger. But I feel lighter! I went to mums for dinner last night and then out to a friends house, which accounts for the deviation..... ate wrong fruit and some almond bread.
Still, I should be out of the 78's again tomorrow.... in time for the race finish.

Hi all,
I am 70.2 today, nearly back to my pre drinking weight!
200g down from yesterday, 1.7 down from Monday, but .6 up from lowest weight last week.
Have a good day.

Well done Bibabs!!
Hey it looks like you might be taking out the prize!!
We'll have to all post all our statistics on Saturday, I think.... to see who is the official winner.
But I think you might have got across the line, but Shell could come across the line with a big loss as well!!

Oops I had 3 slices of pizza last night, the first deviation in a month, because I have actually been 100% strict since 29th Jan.. I feel so cheated.
Will go for it day at a time again, fortunately the scales have shown nothing ....yet!!!!

[shell]

Bilbas you still had a great loss for the month
You must be getting so close to goal !!!
Hang in there you can do it

Loss Kg: -0.3kg (total loss 3.4kg)
Loss %: 4.6%

Well, managed a small loss for my final weigh in.....
A bit disappointed with my inability to last longer for a few days on the program at a time. My thought is that I will now take a rest for a few weeks, and maybe consider a "pulse program"..... one week on the program, then 3 weeks on maintenance. I tend to lose the most in the first week and then if I can maintain the loss over the following weeks, I should be able to get down a bit further. But I think there are some internal, emotional issues which need to be resolved as well that are blocking my way.

Anyway, thanks girls for joining me in this sprint... it was great to see Shell and Bibabs run so well... and Cait and I hung in there, and perserverance is always the long term key to success!!

Let's have the final weigh in results of everyone so that we can declare an official winner !! (shell, did your arm fall off overnight!?!)

[shell]

No Penny, still have my arm,

I am the same as yesterday, but there is always tomorrow for a drop!

Keep at it Penny, you will get there-try putting some positive affirmations on some paper & put it where you will see it several times a day.
Keep reading & believing in it, & whatever you write down will happen and come true
I hope you keep hanging about the forum
