The current WW plan works very well with low carb - but it wouldn't work really at all with high fat. But seeing as I was careful about fat all along it worked really well for me. I just do the online version - I wouldn't do meetings (too antisocial :) ) - following the plan gives me absolute...

Weighing and posting a day early this week (sorry I missed last Friday - end of term, Good Friday and going away was all too much) - because today it is ONE YEAR since I started my weight loss then weight maintenance journey! I'd been to see the nurse at GPs - discovered my BP was sky high and...

Thought I'd said this the other day - but I think my ropey WiFi ate the reply - I LOVE YOU @ickihun

'Check your privilege' "Check your privilege" is a wise phrase - making the world a better and more understanding place <3

Oh - I'm sorry I wasn't criticising and I'm sorry to hear that you lost both parents at the same time - what a trauma to go thorough. I have friends who have retired on health grounds as teaching has destroyed their health completely - I think that I'm probably very lucky to have realised that...

4.7 today - fitted in a nice long walk for a cooked breakfast at lovely cafe - then an equally long walk back to the caravan to rouse the kids for lunchtime!

Love you @ickihun <3 wish I was teaching your little one - <3

I came to the conclusion years ago that one had to get out early. I went at 58 and everyone I graduated with went before 60. We were lucky with pension schemes. I fear for the sanity of the young senior managers in large schools now. My pension situation is dire after spending my 30s working...

4.7 today - at caravan in Wales with very intermittent WiFi

Thank you - FBG seems to be trending back down a bit now :) In the future I can imagine anyone will manage 36 years teaching - I'm 25 years in, and the last of my peer group still teaching. My last teaching friend has been signed off since January, and I'm sure she will not be able to go...

5.5 today - I've had a run of high 4s and low 5s for a week now. No idea why as I'm usually low 4s. Stress of the end of term or the rumbling cold I have?

4.9 - two days of term left.....

Mine didn't tell me - I worked it out myself. Had a general blood test as my blood pressure was raised at a routine appt - I was phoned to say it needed repeating in a fortnight. I picked up the paperwork and saw HbA1c on it. Hubby has T1 - so went straight home and tested on his spare kit. Saw...

4.1 this morning - not getting any time on here as so much to get done as I'm dragging myself to the last day of term on Thursday - just exhausted now and desperate for the holidays

Hooray! Keeping lower fat (as well as low obviously) in most things certainly helped me get right down to my current weight :)

Poor you <3 - I do hope that you are feeling better soon. It's been a tough winter for you

Don't give up - you have every chance to lose next week :)

Fantastic!

Late posting today - I weighed myself this morning and dashed out of the house as I walked to my school in the next town (4 miles :) ) - part of the schools fundraising efforts for Sports Relief. Weight at diagnosis on 5.4.17 - 115.3 kg BMI 39.8 Lowest weight - 64.0kg BMI 22.1 Weight today 64.2...

3.9 today - had a horrible sinusy headache thing for the last couple of days - seems to have cleared today :)
