It has been awhile..

Where were we?

The last Blog I posted was saying I had a sneaky peek on my friends scales & showed I had lost 8.5lb.. So was quite pleased with that.. I was 16 stone 10.5lb & happy.

Well.. I went to official weigh in the week after & was actually 15stone 12.5lb, so if you remove the sneaky peek & take into account I was 17stone 5lb last official weigh in, that is 21.5lb loss!! Over the moon was an understatement..

& last week went again & lost another 4lb, so that put me at 15stone 8.5lb.. half a pound away from a 70lb loss, which is not bad if I do say so myself x

So went to weigh in yesterday afternoon.. & lost another 3lbs!!

So currently I am 15 stone 5.5lbs, which is more than I expected. I am now 19.5lb from goal.. I am aiming for that by christmas..

So all in all, it is has been worth it x

Well, what a nice surprise..

I wasn't intending to weigh in, but was at friend's house last night & the scales was calling me..

Well, bearing in mind, that I last weighed in on the 8th July after a week off the diet & weighed 17 stone 5lbs.

I am now 16 stone 10.5lbs, so a loss of 8.5 lbs which I am really pleased with..

So am keeping it up & seeing what the next 3 weeks brings :D

Subway :D

Walked into a subway in the city centre after work, to get something for my dinner & the manager saw my uniform.. I got a foot long meal deal for £4.49p, which is a bonus.  And  I got a privilege card, so as long as I go in my uniform then I get this discount.

I knew why there was a reason I enjoy being a nurse hee hee x

I always like subway, as for 10 points I can have a foot long chicken breast, lettuce & light mayonnaise on Honey Oat, & it fills me up until tea time.. Also, having 30 points a day gives me some freedom to enjoy it & not think about it.

Weightwatchers is going well, & when in work I have a structure now so it helps with the diet; & I plan much better now.
Am looking forward to weighing in mid august & seeing how much I have lost.. Am resisting sneaky peeking!

Absence makes the memory go funny :D

Dear blogging fellows

I am writing this letter to say with deepest regret, how sorry I am for not blogging in what seems aeons ago.. Sometime in the far far distance I posted something to which my memory is a little hazy, but now am back.

The reason for this absence is that I started work 2 weeks ago after a long period of unemployment, I am so glad I now have a job & finding it fun, frisky & frolicky, not to mention fundamental, fantastic & something else beginning with f.. I feel great & my diet is going wonderfully well. 

Furthermore can I apologise for the accidental alliteration which persistently pops up unintentionally in this brilliant blog..  It is with saddened surprise that the actual alliteration is caused by magical me to alleviate anxieties about my death defying disappearance.

I have to considerably confess that I haven't weighed in for 2 weeks now as I have been working shifts which means I can't get to meetings, however I am still pointing & tracking, & am throughly enjoying the diet in question.

I hope to get to a meeting after pay day so that I can do monthly pass (okay, so that isn't until 18th August), but I have to admit, not having to weigh in each week is less stress & am finding it easier to just chill out & enjoy weight watchers, rather than having to stress each week about how much i have to lose.

Where I am working there is 3 floors & being a nurse I have to keep on the go, which helps with my fitness.. I am finding it easier to get about now I have lost some weight & in all, the job is helping my weight loss.

My apologies for the disturbing delay in blogging & also, this long letter.

I hope I find you all well & that this letter finds you all in superb spirits x

P.S. I am using ScribeFire (Firefox Add-On) to write this blog as it means I can do it from my FireFox browser rather than having to go on blogger :D

For chuckles :D

Weigh In (Redux)

Just though I would pad this out as was a bit thin on the ground.

I lost 2.5 lb this week. I am now 16 stone 13lb & 51lb lost x Am so pleased.. I didn't expect to lose, I thought I sts at the very best, but I bounced about when I got off the scales.

I'm like a celebrity now in the ww meetings.. I helped out at the evening one I go to & my leader was showing me off :D

I wanted to hit the 16 stone bracket for 6th July (My 32nd birthday) so now am aiming for 5lb off for then.. if not am not fussed but it would be nice.

I have a fun packed day tomorrow, 0930 helping my leader at another meeting (Am doing the flip flop thing) then coming home & then going through the mountain of brand new, unworn clothes to see if any fit.. I can almost get into size 38 so it's going to be fun.

I am putting some before & after pics on, mainly from peer pressure from NCU on the weightwatchers forum, as my chums wanted to see me.. So here we are.


Before (at 20 stone 8lbs)

& now at 16 stone 13lbs

& a face pic :D

Before (20 stone 8lbs)

& after



I don't see it, but that is just me. I hope there is a difference x That wasn't to fish for compliments, but I see myself as fat, I guess from a lifetime of being fat I think.

I also am waiting for my 50lb certificate, but for now I still have one from 2005, so I have a post it note over it saying 2009.. It serves the same purpose.

Oh & thank you to evryone who commented on my posts.. I am not being ignorant, for some reason firefox won't let me post a comment so am trying to resolve it.. I think it might be a script issue, but shall show my gratitude here until I resolved it.. Thank you x

Weigh In

Well, I lost 6lbs this week.. Am over the moon, as this means this is the 1st time I have been 17 stone 1.5lbs in 4 years at least! My BMI is coming down & I feel so much better..

But I did put on a lb last week & sts the week before so basically should be lucky & now knuckle down to a steady weight loss each week instead of being dim..

But it is off & I am 1.5 lbs away from 50lb, plus not far from the 16 stone bracket now, yay!

Have got some good blog material coming soon too.. so bear with me :D
