well another 1 lb lost this week bringing it to a grand total of 16 lb so far. Only another 36lb to go...[:I]

Had 2 little victory's this week, start a charity bag with the clothes that are now too big for me which feels good, and the other I bought a pair of shorts 2 or 3 years ago on the hope of one day fitting into them, they still had the labels on them, tried them on this morning and they fitted perfectly. I was whoohoo-ing round the bedroom like a mad thing. [:D][:D]

Mixed news for me on the diet front - increased my exercise and feel better. Can now buy a size 14 with confidence, but want to get back to sixe 10/12!

A hospital consultation confirmed my bowel complaint is now one step away from surgery. Without doubt, my condition is affecting my weight, just pinning my hopes on new medication working!

Thank you, I'm pinning my hopes on it too. I can't start the medication for 2 weeks, as the consultant has to write to my GP to authorise it!

Hopefully, the combination of my diet and medication will be positive in the long run.

For the guys wanting to lose weight:


A guy calls the weight loss company and orders their 5-day, 10 pound weight loss program.

The next day, there's a knock on the door and there before him stands a voluptuous, athletic, 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nike running shoes and a sign around her neck.

She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company.

The sign reads, 'If you can catch me, you can have me.'

Without a second thought, he takes off after her. A few miles later after huffing and puffing, he finally gives up.

The same girl shows up for the next four days and the same thing happens.

On the fifth day, he weighs himself and is delighted to find he has lost 10 lbs. as promised.


He calls the company and orders their 5-day/20 pound program.

The next day, there's a knock at the door and there stands the most stunning, beautiful, sexy woman he has ever seen in his life. She is wearing nothing but Reebok running shoes and a sign around her neck that reads, 'If you catch me, you can have me'.

Well, he's out the door after her like a shot. This girl is in excellent shape and he does his best, but no such luck. So for the next four days, the same routine happens with him gradually getting in better and better shape.

Much to his delight, on the fifth day when he weighs himself, he discovers that he has lost another 20 lbs. as promised.


He decides to go for broke and calls the company to order the 7-day/50 pound program. 'Are you sure?' asks the representative on the phone. 'This is our most rigorous program.'

'Absolutely,' he replies, 'I haven't felt this good in years.'

The next day, there's a knock at the door and, when he opens it, he finds a huge, muscular guy standing there wearing nothing but pink running shoes and a sign around his neck that reads, 'If I catch you, you're mine.'


He lost 63 pounds that week.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I put on 1lb this week but that's better than I expected after a weekend away last weekend and then not getting properly on track when we got home.
