Have been given mountains of pre inspection paperwork to do at school. Not a happy bunny, it would have made more sense to get someone to have a go at in my absence in case I didn't get back before September. But there you go, that's how they work in that school.
Hopefully I'll have a good weigh in this week as I definitely look slimmer, well at least that's what others have been telling me. I'll be gutted now if I gain, lol.
Hope you all had a good day,

Never mind Sarah, it's not for much longer. You are nearly there, just think of your new life which gets closer every day.
How are you doing on your diet, by the way. Did you come off the Mayo or GI diet? What are you doing at the moment, did you finish with Ediets?

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Haven't got as much time to spend on here as I have had of late - too much planning to do! 
But here I am now - dutifully posting my weekly weigh in - 9 stone dead so that is a one pound loss on last week but we all know that this is because of the run yesterday - I'm sure I'll be back on my plateau again next week!
Still feeling drained from the exertions of yesterday so off for a nice long soak now and then bed!
Night all!

Yup like you say, not much longer. Each day is another step closer to my new life.
I ditched e-diets and the Mayo diet and am now following Rick Gallops GI Diet. Only on the basics at the moment as it was printed in a magazine, just waiting for my book to arrive and I will be at it full steam ahead.
Still getting up at 6 and doing my exercises, they are really paying off. Even if I haven't lost any weight (will find out tomorrow) I look so much slimmer.
Hope you are well.

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Okay, where did everybody go today?
I've been playing with horses this morning and this afternoon I have been ploughing my way through a pile of ironing! The house is nearly back to what it was before I had my weekend away!!!
Tomorrow is my weigh in day (I know I will have put a bit on, but that's ok) and after weigh in I am off to the gym. Bag is already packed and ready to go.
I have had to print off a new Form 47SK to fill in, as when I got to question L there was no option for me to have correspondence sent to me! As I went in to the office in Perth at New Year and paid for it I was a little fed up. Even more fed up as I had filled in 90% of it. Aaaaagh. Apparently they amended it shortly after issuing it. Never mind, it should just be a case of copying the info from one form to the other.
Hope everyone has had a good day
Have fun tomorrow.

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Good morning, is there anyone out there?
Oh well, I made it to the gym and this time I know I have been! I went and got weighed first, and it was just a I thought, I have gained a couple (2) of lbs. But at least I knew it would happen, and the weekend was worth it.
Is everyone ok?

Never mind about your 2lbs - you enjoyed yourself and thats the main thing.

Hiya
Don't know what happened to me yesterday - a whole day without posting once on here! Sitting at the computer now though, munching on some houmus, pitta bread, raw carrot, peppers and tomates for my lunch. Refuelling after running the toddler group this morning - I am covered in paint as usual!
Well done Shirley at keeping our thread near the top! You deserved your treat at the weekend so forget about the two pounds - there's always next week! And Lynn if you stick to your guns today and tomorrow I don't reckon you will gain this week. Good luck though!
Lots of chores (including ironing - yuk!) to get through so catch you all later.

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Hi everyone
Guess what, forgot to weigh myself this morning. Must admit I would prefer to change my weigh-in day to Friday. I used to do it on a Friday before and actually prefer it. It works better for me because I can be a bit more relaxed on weekend and then use the week to repair the damage.
Well stress from last week re work has sort of gone. We are now arranging talks with the lease-holder to see how he feels about us selling the business. If there is no problem we shall reduce the price to make a quick sale. If there is a problem we shall give him a couple of months notice and close down. Lots on our plate!
On top of that, we should hopefully receive visa grant anyday now. Things have slowed up a little lately because of pre-Julyers. However it seems to be picking up again.
Binbird and Ohippy, maybe see you soon at the Bristol area meet-up. Hope we can all arrange a convenient date.
Bye for now, Theresa

Hi everyone
Weighed myself this morning for the first time in about 3 weeks I think, have lost 3lbs, mainly due to being down about my cat dying I think and loss of appetite.
Still, a step in the right direction at least!

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Good to see you are all out there, for a while I thought I was talking to myself, which as it happens I do at home all the time!!!
I have been sat in my (very small) back garden getting some sun, bit naughty really but I want to look brown for the wedding.
My bunny's lump is getting large rather fast for my liking, so the vet's thought of him reaching the end of the summer may be a bit ambitious. Poor little soul, when he hops round the garden it nearly touches the ground. Still, he is eating and drinking ok, and it hasn't slowed him down at all yet.
Oh well, kids are due in shortly, just time for a quiet cuppa before the mayhem!
Have a good day all.

Re: Dieter's for OZ
Hi Shirley
My trio of mayhem have arrived home! The older two went on a school trip to a local wildlife park today and were tired and at each others throats - nice! (not) I let them have 10 minutes of television to recharge their batteries and to give them some respite from the sun but they were bickering over which channel to watch within minutes so off went the tv. Was never a problem in my day - only a choice of 2 channels for after school viewing but with sky the choice is vast. Bring back the good old days!!
With no television to watch, daughter no. 2 decided it was too hot to play indoors and has carried a big box of playmobil (horse stables, chalet holiday home etc) out to the garden and is amusing daughter no. 3 in a cool shady spot. It's like a premonition of life in Australia lol! Daughter no. 1 is on the swings and studying spiders in webs (from a safe distance!)
But back to reality! Better get on with their tea! (And never did get the ironing done - the garden called me to go and sit in the sun!!!)
