Thankyou Ditto! But 17st 7lbs is huge!! Although ww scales are very cruel and I did have shoes and a jumper on (to take off later when I've had a less than good week) Have never tried Atkins, but I might if ww doesn't work. Good luck with yours. Loved Willow's pics of James gorgeous!

I thought I was a good judge of weight though, and I'd have only put you around 12st.

I eat very little, but unfortunately, the wrong kind of thing, that's my problem (NN will testify to this, I'm sure, since the tour...) and I also have an abhorrence for most kinds of exercise.

LOL...not so much the eating little, as the eating often ....and as to wrong stuff, didja notice I turned a peculiar shade of green whenever I walked past the 'healthy eating' aisles in Tesco ;D

I went up to 15.5 and UK size 20-22 a few years ago after an accident .I was 11.3 and a 12-14 before that, currently I'm stuck between 12 3 and 13 UK size 14-16 and yo- yo-ing up and down can't get below 11 because if I do my face goes gaunt .. but no chance of that just yet determined to shift that pesky twenty pounds this year got a wedding in October ( on that bloody date ) but I'm hoping to do at least one gig so two reasons to fight the flab well three really cos I shouldn't carry this pork around with me.. it's not good for me

I agree Deb. We shouldn't feel ashamed of our bodies, no matter how large or small. I long to be 15.5 again! Never mind 11! I piled on so much weight in the space of two years, with reduced mobility and general crapness, that I have spent the last two battling to stop the rot! Only lost 22 pounds in all that time but as I am pretty good the vast majority of the time, the slowness is quite dispiriting *sigh* I have been back on track this week though, and I think the excess fluid accumulated last week with my erratic behaviour has started to move on out, lol! And good lord, I actually drank a (small) bottle of water today! *hands round the smelling salts* I may even start another one PS - hope you aren't suffering too much with the Tour Lurgy, Deb

LOL at Deb ...wot a fantastic word 'snotular'.... and I remember having a vaguely filthy phone conversation with a bloke at the local pizza delivery place after a weekend away with the gals left me with a breathy, growly drawl Dunno what I am in real money, and can't be arsed to do the math, but I hover between 68-71 Kilos ...used to be 10 kilos less B.G. ( Before Gremlins ) but having seen pics and wincing at the bony bits I'm happy at the weight I am....just need to tone the wobbly bits, and try to cut down on the smoking Water still makes me gag * bleughh *

I have no clue about kilos - they are totally alien to me, lol!
I don't dislike water, it's just making myself drink enough of anything that's a problem with me. I must have a fluids phobia or something, lol. But I did drink 1 3/4 little bottles yesterday, which was a good thing if still nowhere near enough, as I was up all night! How I resisted celebrating our MP holding on to his seat with a huge bowl of |RK I'll never know, as I was pretty rumbly by then (4-00 am ish!)

We're still bleeding Tory, no surprises there! I can't work out kilos, either. I only work in stones pounds and ounces... I haven't been drinking enough, and I feel queasy. Must drink more water.

A very good start, Ditto, take it from someone who is not doing nuffin, exercise wise! It's really hard to get back in that routine once you stop for a day or two!!

Me too Ditto, but it ain't never gonna happen, for me at leaste. I did manage to get back to the gym today after several weeks of neglect and wonder of wonders ran my mile! I have put on half a stone, mainly through chocolate eating I think I blame the weather cos it's so unsettled and makes me want to comfort eat, so roll on hot and sunny days

;D well done Pluto! I haven't been to the gym since we got the keys for the Rainbow (cafe that is) I wanted to go to the gym today but have been doing lots of business stuff. Eating not too bad tho' apart from a packet of fruit pastilles which I am addicted to!
