I must say I have and still am really pleased with Pam, who is soldiering on with her loses every week and now as some new attire to show off. Excellent work, keep it up.
Jo is steadily losing the timber too, and by her own words "has no idea how" but its happening and so just think how much you could lose if you put your mind to it!!
Claire........ I have to own up for being a bit of a bad influence on you this last week or 2 and as F@t Controller I should know better. So its time to get tough!!!

Claire and Michelle were maintainers, which I know Michelle was happy with. However after Claires boozy weekend its a shock she didnt put on. This week Claire better be a loss or ill be dragging you round with me a lunchtime
Another 1lb loss for the F@t Controller and making my total 9lb so far
Ok, now some useful info for you
Diet myths are everywhere and if you're trying to lose weight reading contradictory information can be frustrating. Here we try to bust some of the most common diet myths and hopefully help you to acheive your weight loss goal. Good luck!
Carbohydrates are fattening = FALSE
Carbohydrate foods such as rice, pasta and bread have been labelled as fattening and people think if we avoid carbohydrates this will result in weight loss. Carbohydrate is important for fuel for our bodies and it is difficult to sustain a low carbohydrate diet. Rice, pasta and bread are low in fat and are actually low in calories and high in fibre thus very filling. It is when we overeat these foods and diverge from out recommended portions that they can be no good for us. Carbohydrates can be included in a healthy meal plan, just limit the fat that can be added to the carbohydrate, including butters, margarine, oils and cream.
Low fat milk has less calcium than full cream milk =FALSE
Low fat milk and full fat milk have the same amount of calcium, so both are important for bone health. However, they do differ in fat content. If you are trying to shed some pounds then so ideally opt for a lower fat milk.
Snacking makes you fat = FALSE
Overeating between meals (known as grazing or picking) or choosing wrong snack choices can lead to weight gain, but snacking healthily does not make you overweight. One healthy snack between meals can be beneficial as it can help reduce the risk of overeating at the next meal and keep your metabolism burning. Some ideal snacks may include:Piece of fruitLow fat yoghurtVegetable sticks with hummusSmall handful of unsalted nutsLow fat crackers & low fat cottage cheeseGlass of low fat milk
Honey is a healthy substitute for sugar = FALSE
Honey and sugar have similar energy/kilojoule content and provide little nutrition. You are better off to sweeten your food with fruit instead. For example, top your cereal with fruit or add a slice of lemon to your herbal tea.
Red meat is high in fat so avoid this to lose weight =FALSE
Red meat is important for iron and iron helps to transport oxygen around the body. If we don’t have enough iron we can be left feeling tired, which in turn makes eating correctly and exercising a lot more difficult. Choosing lean or trimmed red meat for meals three to four times a week in correct portions is appropriate to meet nutritional requirements, as well as continue on your weight loss journey.
Treat foods should be eaten in the morning so it's burnt off, rather than at night = FALSE
Our metabolism burns throughout the day and night, even when we are sleeping. It is about the portion and how often we eat these treat foods and not the time of day that will have an effect on our weight.

Howdy!!!!
Sorry folks for not posting last week, I had been struggling with man flu all weekend and into the early week. But Im back now.
So, last week we only had 1 loser an it doesnt take a genius to workout that the others were either maintainers or gainers. Yep, gainers!!! Me included.Pam was the biggest loser with a steady consistant loss every week and so a mahoosive well done :D Pam has even refrained from the office chocolate dive in, we need to all stay strong.
Now onto this weeks weigh in, looks like the rest of us have had a word with ourselves and are starting to take this healthy choice of living seriously. Or everything in moderation, as long as you dont refer to it as a diet.
We have a new member in our club, Jo has decided to join after she had a sneaky weigh in and decided she wanted to shed a few pound before Christmas. So welcome on board
Now, stat time
Firstly well done to Pam who has lost over half a stone. I can feel "slimmer of the month" award heading its way to you!!!
This week weve had losers and maintainers and what do we say "a maintains better than a gain"
Joint Biggest loser of the week goes to Pam and yours truely however i just lost what Id put on from the week before and so am not a deserved loser!
Well Friday is nearly here ladies and so lets get some extra exercise in an heres to a good loss
