LOSS GAIN LOSS GAIN What Is Going On?! | Slimming World Weigh In Week 42 

I love you being real , its your journey you take the route that's it right for you. Its hard thinking SW all the time keeping control , a little break is good for the soul ❣️

I hope to have a loss this week but as you say life is for living it’s the commitment of going to the club that keeps me going hope your dog gets better soon take care ❤

As my old Dad used to say, a little bit of what you fancy, does you good! I feel your pain of having Rocko at the vet. We had a 32lb German Shepherd called Bella. As we sat in the waiting room of the vets she would start to shake uncontrollably. By the time she went in to see Adam (the vet) she would take one look at him and immediately pee the floor! She had never had a bad experience and we never, ever found out what caused her anxiety. My best friend lives in Menstrie so I will definitely try to visit The Woodhouse next time I'm up home. Another one you may have tried, which sounds very similar, is The Smiddy just outside Doune. Lovely wee place for cake, coffee and a blether. Have a great week, Denise. You are an inspiration to many and never fail to put a smile on this old woman's face 😊

Glad you have had a good week. You do need to give yourself a break from slimming world it makes us feel better for the break enjoy life is two short

If I lived by you Denise I would look after Rocco for you. I agree we can go too far and it could effect our mental health this is a life change. 1.5 is nothing that will be off in no time. Hope u have a fab week❤xx

Sometimes you just need to be a little less strict with yourself and you know you can rein yourself back in when you need to. In the grand scheme of things 1.5lb gain is not much at all, glad to hear you're not beating yourself up over it. Your weight loss so far is just amazing and you look and sound so much better from when you started! Keep going at a pace that suits you lovely lady ❤xc

I know Denise. I have been on plan for 1 year now,I only so called cheated on Xmas day. Sometimes you just need a day off !! You are doing amazing. You look fantastic ❤ From Angie in Newcastle Upon Tyne Ps there’s nothing wrong with your teeth. They are lovely

Hi Denise, well done achieving your amazing weight loss you should be so proud of yourself. I know exactly what you mean about being fixated on staying on plan, I know I used to panic if my husband suggested going out for a meal, in case there wasn’t anything on the menu which was completely on the plan. In the end he said I needed to calm down and learn to enjoy life as it didn’t matter if I took longer to lose the weight as he loved me whatever I weighed, as I’m sure James does you. So I did listen realising he was right, we do go out now and enjoy eating out and socialising with friends. I did reach my target weight, losing just over 4 stone and, although I fluctuate a couple of pounds up and down, I have stayed there for over three years. xx

You are always so honest Denise but it is lovely to see you enjoying some different foods when you want too. You are practicing for when you get to your target. My friend has a boxer that cannot cope with the vets, she needs injections monthly, her vet comes out to the car and gives Darcy her injections. It is much calmer and safer for all. My vet will also do this for Lily if we ask. Maybe this is something you could ask of your vet if you think it will help. They had to treat our animals in cars through Covid so I am sure they will not mind in view of how stressed Rocko gets. Apologies if this is what you have already tried 🥰🥰xxx

Omg im the same, i have to weigh at home, i eould be too stressed for weigh in. I need to have dome idea ❤

Thanks for the update. You understand that the bigger picture is what matters.

I'm sure you will get there in the best way that is for you. You've done incredibly well.

I also had a wonderful dog who previous to a small operation was fine at Vet and at home had been crate trained and would take herself there and my daughter and her friends knew no to disturbs her lordi she came back terrified.. Never went near crate again and we finally decided as she was elderly we would not Kennel her so no holidays her final trip to vet was a awful experience. My current dog completely opposite loves Vets will let them do anything... It shows how individual they are. Oh I remmber the March squeeze to ensure all staff had allocated holidays one of things along with end of year going into new year in April Budget I don't miss. I am glad you had a relaxing holiday and are balancing ongoing weight loss with living with foods that you enjoy even if not on plan... I was nooo when I realised how high Black Pudding was but heck if offered Storna8Black Pudding I will say yes please as not a daily thing. I continue on the slow train 1 lb a week regardless of what I do so just need to accept it will be long and slow. I have scales to weigh on Saturday but my husband removes battery and scales as I would get fixated on constant weighing.. Nxt stage is leave scales out with no battery until I get into only once a week with out urge to stand on multiple times a week... I will get there. I would happily have Rocco to stay if nearer Piper would go to my daughters while I dog sat and be spoilt going forward maybe looking into a dog sitter who does not req vaccination a option... I know when Piper no more I will not get another dog but would happily do a daily or holiday dog service for a single dog. Have a good week at work 💜

Hi Denise , I’m glad you have had a lovely week off work . I too have a frenchie and also a birthday 3 days after you my big birthday this year so pulling all stops out to get to target but hay if I don’t I don’t . Have a good week at work xx

I'm struggling this week, pulled my back , can't even cook . Eating for comfort ❤

You can factor the syns in for that day but things happen if your not well or stuff happens you have done so well when I go out any where I have a normal meal and any event but you can get back on track some time you need a wee break 🐝🐝

Would it be possible for the vet come to a neutral place..to give him his injections..it would take away one of his fears maybe..also if they could be in normal clothes may help..xx
