Well Geranium I weighed myself and wrote it down, and stayed really good, but brought out the pannetoni for visiting son and girlfriend and had a tiny piece. I think that is not too bad. I would say I had a good start for the time of year.
You are already half way through your diet by the sound of it. Did you find you hit a plateau with your weight loss where it stayed the same for a while?

Another good thing to do is write everything down that goes in your mouth during the day.  I also need to lose 1/2 a stone, since my knee went I haven't been able to do much apart from a bit of walking. Much to OH disapproval it starts today. ;D |

Ha ha Steve. You are good with words.  Lesley, that is another reason losing weight is good. It is easier on the knees. I hope it wll help my back. I used to have a book charting my weight for cholesterol and I did very well, then all of a sudden it went up and the nurse wrote under the weight 'what happened?' I was then put on simvastatin, but it would be better to get my weight down. |

Yes, Cherry - I seem to be stuck after losing my 6 lbs. And no, it's not ' gateau', Steve...  |

This year I thought I might like to loose the 2 stone that the experts tell me I should'nt be carrying around. Too wise to get involved in that diet stuff. Going to eat, hopefully sensibily, but use exercise to shift what I can. If it goes it goes.
The other thing some of you may not know is the following based on personal experience.
Giving up smoking (although a difficult thing to achieve) is much easier when you have convinced yourself it's the right thing for you to do. Until you are in that zone you are only torturing yourself and are probably better off not kicking the habit.

I weighed myself this morning and it was depressingly the same, but I feel better. I am sure that counts.

You need to be the half full glass type Cherry, look on the bright side you have increased by zero I went out to wave goodbye to son and girlfriend and when I returned, the dogs had reached the table and taken the pannetoni which was not eaten (genuine, imported from Italy every Christmas I might add) and all the baklava and the disgusting pigs were wolfing it down. I had been good too and looked longingly at the baklava. I don't have to think about it now. |

I've lost a pound this week - (sorry Cherry!) - which makes half-a-stone all together. |
