OT - Weight Loss Update

WTG Joan! Doesn't it annoy you when you have to keep hitchin' them undies
up? Or you've hitched 'em up that high they poke out above your jeans?
Puts a whole new meaning on wedgies that does! LOL

WTG!

Weight loss has temporarily halted, but I did notice that my undies are
looser
than they were last week, ALWAYS a good sign!

45 pounds in 6 months and loving every moment! Down from a 3x to an 18W.

MMMM Posh frocks! I've started eyeing off those now. Last year DH's work
had a marquee at the Melbourne Cup and I always said I was gonna get
something good for that this year. Boo Hoo - the powers that be have
cancelled that, so I'll just have to buy myself a posh christmas day frock!
Well done Kate!

Great stuff!

I'm still on the downward slide, and hope to lose a little this week,
but am eating way too little after a blow-out weekend and catching a
stinking cold! I AM doing my exercise, however, so hope the damage
won't be to great.

I bought party frock fabric while in Coventry because my Christmas Posh
Frock stuff is now too big!

It seems to me that you might not want to buy a holiday dress if you are
continuing to lose. May not fit by then.

I shall make another sari jacket a size smaller than I need officially
now, and a dress out of panne velvet that will stretch a bit if I don't
quite lose enough, but will not look too bad if I lose more... The
velvet was 60" and £2.50m, so the dress will cost me under £25 to make.
If I wear it twice this year, that will do. I have nothing to wear to
the company Christmas meal, and this will cost less than hiring. I can
always sell it later!

It's encouragement like this rather than the "Oh don't lose too much and
make yourself ill" comments from my DSM that make it so much easier!

Congratulations to each and all of you for becoming such big loosers!
Ok.. now that I have had my fun I'll be serious. Loosing weight can be
hard
work, and keeping it off takes a long term commitment. You all deserve to
feel very proud of yourselves for sticking to your dreams.
Fanstastic!

LOL! I plan to stop when I can see my toes! No seriously, I want to get to
a small size 14 or large size 12. I believe that's a 12 or 10 in the USA
'cause your sizing system is one size smaller than ours. I figure that's
another hmmmm....2-3 sizes. Not too far.

Woo Hoo! Absolutely with you all the way! BTW - one of the friends that
made it to WW last week and was all excited didn't turn up this week. The
reason? She'd put on weight! Sheesh ain't that the whole purpose of going?
To go regardless of which way the scales go? Lord knows mine have gone up
plenty of weeks.

Ooooh gosh darn you're close! I'll email you a pic of me from Tassie (which
is smaller than I used to be by 3 - 4 sizes). If I feel as good as I do
now, imagine how great I'll feel down a couple more sizes!!
Hmmm.... smile yes, accent - what accent? eyes - yes four complete with
mischievousness! Hair? Well it's there but what it looks like depends on
the day, and my mood if DH has been away 'cause that's usually when the hair
colouring happens!!

Will you feel healthy at that size/weight? Thats the criteria that seems
the
most important. Tho... the size numbers help me picture what youre aiming
for... would help me if I had a picture of what you look like now.
All I see when I try to picture you now is a lovely lady with a very
infectious smile and a tangy strine accent. and impishly mischevious eyes.
:-) Maybe curly hair too.. not sure about that.. and glasses?
I dont ever imagine plumpness...could I be that far off?
ohhh nooooo!!!
