Thanks Cupid!!
Well weigh in day today and predictably another 3lbs, not that I'm complaining of course. I'm so happy with that number and long may it continue. Another 5lbs to go until I can say I have 99lbs to lose and then I'll look at setting some more targets. I have almost 2 weeks to do this if I want to have it done by the end of March, but to be fair, I'm not that bothered so long as the number is coming down steadily.
I wore trousers today to work which was a real shock for my colleagues as I live in dresses and tights or leggings and boots. This was partially because I couldn't fit into my trousers anymore and didn't want to buy bigger ones but also partially because I'm a real girly girl and just love dresses. So today I walk into the office in some black trousers and a nice top that I haven't been able to wear for a year or so and literally jaws dropped. It made me feel a million dollars and I have been smiling ever since. Just popped to asda for some dinner and picked up some size 20-22 pjs (before was 24-26) so this is an improvement! Plus...they're seriously cute pj's lol.
Hope everyone is getting on ok! Happy hump day (Wednesday is the hump of the working week, just incase anyone thought I was being rude) X

Hey ladies, just a quick post to say that I have changed my goal weight to 200lbs which will take me to a BMI of 27 and around 14st ish. I had a good talk through with my other half and I reminded myself that I have no desire to be a size 10, a 14 would be ideal for me but to be honest I'd be happy with being healthy and a size 16. My goal is to be ready for conceiving a baby next January and that's what I want the focus to be, my health not my numbers.
However, I do enjoy the numbers game so it's nice to think that I'm closer to my goal than I was before lol and am further along in my weight loss than I was before. I hope people don't feel this is a cop out but I have come to terms with what's realistic in my time frame and think my new goal is achievable and having it be so has made me less pressured and happier about it all. Happy Sunday xx

Hi Pip
My bff banded set a goal initially, 13st...she got there became obsessed lost another 3st (was then less than 10st) & looked bloody awful...it made her I'll, periods stopped etc, she aged badly....2yrs later she's back to 13st & is size 14-16....and much healthier.
This bmi malarkey & target weights are kinda like a moving feast...I think we'll all be naturally obsessed with numbers, we were obsessed with food so there has to be something in it.
Onwards & downwards to your healthier size/weight & baby plan - marvellous xx

3lbs off again this week Can't complain at that. I still find it odd that I tend to lose it at the start of the week, then stall for the rest of the week, very bizarre. But I'm really happy, my bmi is down to 38.9, down 6points, 10 points to go until goal but I guess as you lose weight you need to lose less lbs for that number to drop.
Work is incredibly busy at the moment and very stressful. I really cannot wait to have my baby, so that I can leave this job. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the job in principle, but the employers can be a tad abusive and we are often treated like idiots. My other half is currently in the process of applying for jobs that take him up his career ladder, which may involve a minor relocation, so fingers crossed, that can happen and I can hand in my notice. Ohhhh how I have dreamed about that. Ha x
