Since Christmas our SW group has doubled with a whole lot of new members, trying to get rid of their Christmas 'exra eats' me too!
We try to get there early, otherwise we have to wait ages to get weighed and as we eat our little one slice of bread, a sandwich, of butter and marmalade, after we're weighed our tums are screaming! So we try to leave the house about 9 , which means we get there round about 10 minutes past.. But oh my, was it cold yesterday morning, the car thermometer said 2C and it was bitter. A cold wind with icy rain drops was horrible. As I trundled along the path to the scout hut with my wheels, I was moaning to Dh, 'why are we doing this?' I had on a winter dress, but not a thick one and although I was wearing a half slip under it, it is so thin, its like gossamer! My thicker one weighs 12 oz which is practically a pound so I can't wear that one! One young girl had on just a spaghetti strap top with her leggings! Brrrr
And after all that what did I lose?? Half a pound, is that all I said! Ah well its a new week, and our planned Valentine's meal was steak, baked potato and a huge green salad, so on plan...but yes I did have ice cream after it, but it could have been a lemon full fat cheese cake, but we resisted and made do with just ice cream, which was delicious..and tomorrow it's the start of a new week!

Saw a young land in tee-shirt and shorts while I was freezing waiting for a shop to open - he must have been freezing - totally mad!
You were certainly Brave to go out in that cold weather. And I understand wearing the clothes you did so when you get on this scale you have a good idea how much you do actually weigh. And you do have to pay yourself on the back because you did lose some weight.
Good for you for sticking with it. It's so cold here too, makes me just want to stay inside!
Ou in the cold in a light dress is brave in my book. I wouldn’t do it here!
Oooh, Scout Huts are always cold!!!! Sorry to hear it wasn't the result you wanted but the dinner sounds GREAT!!
... you did lose weight though so be pleased :)
All the best Jan
You are so funny! And I can so relate. We had the same dinner, but yes, we had cake AND ice cream! Shameful, but sometimes a person just has to be allowed to cut loose a little.
