Weight loss update: I have lost another pound and so has Janet. We are not sticking to the rules I have to admit! I think getting over xmas and into the new year with a weight loss has sent us complaisant. We have been snacking again in the evenings and I think because we are doing more...

When I went into surgery it was for a bypass but due to my hernia the surgeon had to resort to a sleeve. But to be honest we have noticed very little difference between the two operations. We eat pretty much the same meals and although Janet (bypass) can eat quicker than me we still manage...

Best of luck for Wednesday, it only seems like five minutes ago we were in your shoes!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Well where do I start recapping the festive period? Firstly Janet and myself have both recorded a loss of 3lbs each!! I cannot recall ever in our adult lives losing weight over xmas and new year!! Don't get me wrong we had plenty of nice treats and did not feel left out of any...

Weekly weigh in! I have lost 2lbs this week which takes me to 21st (haven't been that weight for a long long time!) Janet has lost 1.5 lb this week. There is no way we would have been this weight prior to Christmas with just dieting, normally we have a crash diet prior to Christmas and that...

Weekly weigh in! Janet has lost another pound and I have dropped another two! We have been eating more fruit this week which has helped. The trouble is now though with the run up to Christmas the temptation for chocolate is everywhere! I have to make a real effort not to sneak a chocolate off...

Weekly weigh in! Janet has lost another pound and a half and is only 1 pound off 5 stone! Finally convinced her to buy some new clothes, nothing too outrageous for now but some nice leggings and a couple of tops which really suit her and her slimmer figure. Bit of a negative now though is her...

Weekly weigh in! Back to basics worked for me this week dropped 8lb!! Janet lost another pound (steady Eddie as she is now known!!). We attended Northern General Sheffield for our latest check up on Tuesday and they are really pleased with our progress since the operations (Janet 4 1/2 months...

Weekly weigh in! Forgive me people for I have sinned!! I have maintained again this week after finding my old snacking habits coming back to haunt me! Crisps and cheese have been over indulged over the last two weeks really and reality has caught up with my weigh in. Can't believe that the old...

Weekly weigh in! I've maintained and Janet has lost a pound. We had a lovely time in wales and did push the boat out a bit with the treats! We had to face a massive selection for breakfast, there was fruit juices, yogurts, cereals croissants, fresh fruits and choices of full welsh breakfasts...

Weekly weigh in! Janet lost another 2 pounds and I have lost another 3lbs!! We went out for a family meal on saturday for Janets birthday as we are away on the actual date which is tomorrow. I had Haddock and chips and Janet went for Sausage and mash, we had the main meals and the others...

Weekly weigh in. I have lost 3lbs this week and Janet has lost 1.5 lb! That takes me to 6 stones lost since my heaviest! Unbelievable! Janet has lost 4st 6lb but is getting a bit down with only shifting a pound or so each week, it seems slower to her but I have a lot more weight to lose than...

Weekly weigh in! Janet lost another pound and I have lost 7lb! (Been back to the basics this week!) I have bought a cheap pair of jeans from Tesco yesterday £10 bargain! Janet said my others were (and I quote) "hanging off me arse!"...... They are cosier to say the least.... Janet is...

Weekly weigh in! Janet has lost another 2 pound (in two weeks since last weigh in) I have put a pound on!!!! Well I know we had a few treats on hols but equally have both been more active with walking etc. Every day though I have a slice of bread now which I was going to try and avoid, plus...

What an amazing week! Absolutely knackered, my knees are about to give in and Janet looks like she has done the London Marathon!! But we have loved it, went swimming twice and will definately be keeping that up now we are back. Felt really tired today but thinking about the walking and outdoor...

Had to do a quick update from the isle of Centre Parcs! Well went to sub tropical paradise last night and guess what? I didn't die of shame!! Just pulled up my shorts and draped a towel round my shoulders, luckily at night they dim the lights and we just walked through and after dropping my...

Had another brain wave! Going to walk into pool backwards then if someone says look at that fat bloke coming out of the water! I will be going in instead! Simples! Really just going to bite bullet and go in! Got to stop this worrying about what people think! It really does spoil your life.

Wednesday weigh in! Janet has lost 1lb I have lost 4lb this week! (WEEK 10) This is the op that keeps on giving! Janet is looking so much better for her weight loss but perhaps like all of us it is not happening quick enough on the scales! I am still playing hide and seek with the scales for...

Might have found my own solution on ebay!

Got a mild dilemma! In our new found confidence we decided to agree to go on a weeks break to Centre Parcs (Sherwood forest one) with our Children/partners and grandson. All sharing a villa which will be lovely I'm sure (we all have seperate rooms with en suite so privacy is not an issue)...
