Good luck in the morning dvjj - will be crossing my fingers at 7am.

Good news for me today - wasn't able to make weigh in due to festi chores so weighed myself when I got home, in my clothes, on my ww scales. Tried it a couple of times in different parts of the floor to be sure and have lost 4lbs, hurrah!

Was dreading today's weigh in due to birthday weekend but turns out I parties hard enough to burn the cake off ;). (and suffered healthy food on a horrendous hangover).

So have hit my Target of losing the stone I recently put on before the festival. Am now only half a pound over the next stone barrier so really hoping I can lose that over the next week to boost my confidence before we leave

Hope everyone else is doing well x

Yay, made it back for a swim. Going to try again tomorrow. Fecking shattered though as I am working 11-12 hour days this week with no sitting apart from half hour at lunch! Ouch.

Not been eating much in the day which is good for the calorie counting. Belly hasnt flattened much though sadly :(

Final WW weigh in I have lost the 1 1/2lb I put on last week, will go and weigh in at Boots Liverpool Street on Monday (the scale in there weighs me 2lb heavier I ran in this morning and checked it out!) and let you all know if I hit my 7 Stones total loss I was a little disappointed I didn't lose all 3 1/2lb today but kind of expected it...Can't wait to have a freezing cold Strongbow Tuesday on the way down!!! (Thank god I don't drive!!) haven't had a can since June 2010!!

hey, well done on shifting the 1.5 dvjj! can't believe how hard you are exercising, if you don't get rid of that last little bit by next monday then i would be looking around for someone sneaking pebbles in your pockets ;). You've done so well, i'm sure once you're sat round at your tents looking out at the festival in a pair of shorts that must be half the size of the ones you wore last year you won't really mind if it's a pound extra in either direction anyway....

good tip on the apricots as well, although i suspect we'd have to be careful to no overdo-it while there's nothing but longdrops on offer?!

the monthly pass that i bought for this pre-festival boost has now run out so i've joined WW online to try and keep up the good work (had somehow forgotten that one of my best friends is getting married at the end of july - so glad i've already shifted a stone of the excess). will do a final weigh in when i get home from work on tuesday before setting off

hoping to arrive about 4-5am on wednesday so will look out for a particularly slender person scoffing apricots in the queue!!

BS x

Hey good luck for tomorrow :-)..... everything crossed for you. We're getting there on Tuesday afternoon (East cv) - if you are queueing East on Wednesday morning towards gate C and not moving give us a shout and I'll bring you out a cup of tea and fat free fruit loaf (just baking 4 of them at the moment for munchie times). We're going to the cider bus meet on Wednesday evening - other than that no plans at all. If we hear of anything exciting will let you know :-)

I've finished my two weeks on the Elimination diet (really tough detox) - and in 2 weeks have shifted 11 lb. Cannot believe it - had plateaued so much and now it's moved and in a big way....... going to be good(ish) at Glasto and then straight back on it when I'm back. only another 1 stone 3lb left to go and I'm at goal - cannot wait and it's manageable now .............

Yikes, didn’t realize you were doing your final weigh today dvjj, hope it went well. Mine isn’t until after work tomorrow, how will I survive all my packing excitement without any treats?!

in fact, just realized that I’m going to have to do the booze/treats shop at asda on my way home from work tomorrow, all pre-weigh-in, what’s the betting I get to the festival with a 24 pack of crisps and loads of chocolate :lol:

If anything ever deserved an OMG it is this, OMG WELL DONE!

Absolutely immense effort, you must be SO looking forward to getting there and prancing around as a shadow of your former self (in a good way).

Congratulations :) x

wow - glasto eve is here and i'm already thinking about totally sacking off my healthy eating, what is wrong with me?!

will definitely hold out until i've got home and done my final weigh-in tonight (fingers crossed everyone), but someone just mentioned gail's bakery at work and my first through was 'the holiday is here, sack it, i'll treat myself to their amazing olive baton, butter the whole thing up and scoff it on the drive down tonight'.

aaaaaarrrrrgggghghhhh, no will power at all!

i will be good for glasto, i will be good for glasto, i will be good for glasto......

    • Yeah, I was just joking.
    • Ahhh if anyone manages to grab a spare one of these, would love one! Haven’t been in years & just don’t have the budget, so this would be so amazing! 
    • it's already twice as expensive as it used to be just a few years ago, so surely there's not a lot of room for them to increase it much further now. I'd hope not anyway as it's already prohibitively expensive!
