Your a shadow of your former self Rachel, what a fantastic achievement! 
I've only one complaint.....................
Considering you've done so well, and lost so much, to me your just not blowing your own trumpet hard enough girl!
Your an outgoing, full of life, woman Rachel. Where's all the shouts of joy in your posting, the singing, the congratulating yourself on a fantastic job??
I'll tell you something, if I can manage to get as far as you on my journey, your going to be hearing me blow my own trumpet until I've deafened myself 
I've lost 1 and half stone so far, and I'm blowing my trumpet already!
Oh! Love the new photo by the way

Hey Rachel, we haven't heard from you for a while.
How's it going, are you still losing?
Blimey, you really must be enjoying life now being as you aren't posting on here much - good for you!
Don't forget us poor buggers, pop on now and then to say 'Hi' and to let us know how your weight loss is going.

Friday 30th October
I know it's been a while, and I'm so sorry!
The weight is a bit hit and miss - I've put on 1lb over the past couple of weeks, although I don't know if that's this week or last week because I've not been on the scales for two weeks!
Life is good at the moment - I've just enrolled in a dance class starting Monday (burlesque class) and I'm generally living life as nature intended.... to the fullest!
Debs, sorry I've not been around - I'll make more of an effort over the next week (promise)

Hi Rachel
Nice to hear from you again
I'm glad that lifes treating you well at the moment and that you are enjoying it.
Get you going to a dance class! good for you! I hope you enjoy yourself
It seems to have been very quiet on here lately for some reason 
As for me, I don't think I've lost anything since my last weigh in. I have managed to re-start my exercising again after my pig flu and allergic reaction to my pneumonia jab.
I suppose my body is still trying to work out whether it's on it's head or it's bum at the moment after the last couple of months
I have to admit, personally I'm having abit of a rough time at the moment in my life ( nothing new there then!  )
BUT I'm not letting it make me pig out on food I shouldn't be eating. I used to, but not this time!
Ok, I may not have lost weight the last few weeks, but I haven't put it on, so I'm ok with that.
They may be making me unhappy, but I'm not letting them win by making me comfort eat, so they can then make me more unhappy! 
Have a great weekend Rachel, inspite of the gale force winds and rain!
For the first time in 30 yrs I'm going to a firework display Sunday night. ( I've never been able to go before because I've always had dogs which I'd never leave around firework time )
And when I saw the weather forcast this morning for tomorrow............well, that just about says it all really, Heehee  Oh well, never mind, I'm sure my friends two kids will enjoy it ( and so will we! ) 
Have fun!
Debs

Glad to hear you are enjoying life Rachel - you deserve it.
Party on and keep at the gym! I know it's hard to get motivated to go but as you find you feel so much better for going.

Well gang, I went to the dancing class on Monday and it was just fabulous... this is the type of dancing I've wanted to do for over 15 years (yes I want to learn how to strip gracefully haha)
The gym is a bit on hold - only managing once a week at the minute, and my sleep pattern is totally out of whack. I come home from work absolutely knackered, but by 10 o'clock I'm wide awake. I think I need to have a weekend of sleep just to get myself back into the groove!
Life is good at the moment, I'm loving being single and loving the offer of dates that I've received - yep, you read it right... I've been asked out on a couple of dates!!
I've not actually been on any yet - (not the "yet") but it'll happen.
The reason for not going out, my social calendar is so full that I don't have time for a bloke haha haha haha
Weightloss... not sure - I know that I'm not eating properly, although I'm trying to make a better attempt at it. I have a weigh in next week, so we'll see how I've done. I don't even get on the scales at home any more... blimey, this single life is doing more for me than I thought!
Well, I'll read through and try and catch up with people
Big Kisses and lots of saucy wiggles from the "Burlesque Babe" (Burlesque name to follow in next class)

Friday 6th November
A l.5lb loss this week - OK I know it's the 1.5 I've put on in the past couple of weeks, but hey it's gone again so that's all good news!
I'm off for a few days next week, it's the first "holiday" I've had all year and I'm going to stay with my cousin in the Isle of Man... I'm really quite excited by it to be honest (going with mom, so best behaviour... YEAH Right!!!)
My weigh in is next week, and to be honest I'm not hoping for much - I think I lost weight very quickly after the marriage break up, and now my weight has steadied (which is good long term) so we'll have to see what the nurse's scales say... perhaps a very light summer dress and sandals (minimum clothing weight / maximum weight loss showed)
My ticker is updated - I'm still 2 stone off my original target... but now it's looking achievable (famous last words)
Watch this space!

Blimey, where has the time gone?
Obviously I'm not on the reds (although I need them right
now as my weight has started to increase again)
I'll post on here later as I have loads to share and I
want to finally pull everything together from the past 2
years to show someone special (yes... a man!)

I'm back, and I am really really sorry - actually I'm pretty ashamed of myself right now.
Every ounce I lost.. I found again - and I'm back to where I started four years ago, except this time there are no Reds to kick me up the backside.
I hadn't even noticed it was happening, until this week actually when I was ill, and I tried to remember what I'd eaten - there wasn't a single "home cooked" meal in a week.
I've seen the doctor and the offer was anti depressants or something else (Xenical)... I took the Xenical
So I'm back here, having taken my first Xenical this morning.
I'm hoping that it will kick start me into eating properly, 3 meals a day instead of a sandwich and a bar of chocolate on the run.
I'm not going to share my weight just yet... let's just say that it's not good, and I'm not happy about it.
I've gone full circle, from the scared girl on the first diet, to the bouncy full of life "look at me" girl, to the ashamed "don't look at me" that I am right now.
Well, only time will tell how things go... but I'll keep you posted!
