A Quick Thank You

29 Replies

Heya everyone

I just wanted to come and say a massive thank you to the people (Elisabeth3 , moreless , Tiggerr , Walkmore in particular) who replied to my first post about not following MFP calories. I'm not quite through my first week yet but so far I'm on track and if I had followed the MFP numbers as I had originally intended, I would have failed before I'd even began ... I'd also be having a sulk and a binge about now!

I'm looking forward to learning a lot more from you all :)

Thanks again,

Deb x

It’s great to hear from you and that you’re still on track. Never forget we all throw the rattle and fall off the wagon from time to time but it’s the fact we have the support to jump back on that makes this place work 😊

Don’t tell my partners in crime Lytham and fattybygaslight but I’m having a wee 🍷 honestly I have saved enough calories for it 😉

I hope you had a nice holiday. I’m on the mend but just fancied a cheeky wee red 😉

. Still plugging away with the exercise so I can only thank you for that, just trying different things like stairs not lifts and walking not taking the car 😘

Yeah we did thanks, went upto Northumberland and walked 40 miles in the week! Feet are still throbbing lol!

Great news keeping up with the exercises, did you do Vivs leg lifts ? :-) x

Walkmore7lbs in reply toLytham

Wow, that’s some steps, did you hit your target on any of those days? The amount of times I’m sat here of an evening thinking how many of us are lifting our legs... it makes me smile to think I’m not alone

Lytham profile image
Lytham3 stone in reply toWalkmore

Yea I hit my 20,000 pledge then SquirrelNutkin and moreless increased it to 25,000 and I smashed it with 30,000 (10 mile) couldnt blooming believe it !! Lol

Have you took your measurement since doing it? I only lost 1cm off my tummy but 2cms off my waist and that had been the same for months so I was well chuffed! Going to get back into them this week ! :-) x

Walkmore7lbs in reply toLytham

WOW I salute you, you smashed it 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I’ve not retaken my measurements but I will now you’ve reminded me.

We’re all improving with age 😉

Like a very fine wine my dear ! Lol

Heyy hows the new smaller jeans doing ? Still strutting your stuff? :-) x lol

Walkmore profile image
Walkmore7lbs in reply toLytham

Still fitting 😁

Having small targets seems to work better for me than one final result! What do you aim for?

Was thinking of you during the week, I’ve started a sewing class and we’re making handbags!!

Lytham profile image
Lytham3 stone in reply toWalkmore

Awe class, love a new handbag ! What are you making it out of?

I cant look at the bigger picture, its far too daunting, thats how the Easter Challenge started ! I go for the next half stone loss or to get me under the next half stone weight mark, or just to lose the weight I put on the last holiday plus 1lb before I go on the next! Heyy when do you go to France ? Thatll be getting closer now is it ? :-) x

Walkmore profile image
Walkmore7lbs in reply toLytham

It’s fab, a tartan tweed fabric with plain lining. Lots of mistakes but lots of learning 🤭

I’m delighted you set yourself small targets too - I just can’t imagine the bigger picture, yet - Far too daunting!

France on the 7th June, if I could lose a few more lbs before I go I’d be delighted, I can’t believe it’s come round so quick!!

Ooh sounds lovely! Do you have a tartan of your own ?

OMG thats only a couple of weeks away isnt it? Going to have to get your head down girl! :-) lolx

Walkmore profile image
Walkmore7lbs in reply toLytham

Oh yes we’re MacRae tartan, lots of blue but I’ve gone for a neutral green check which will go with more.

I’m lifting those legs like they’ve never been lifted before !!!! Two weeks and counting 🥴
