Dis Dieters, weight loss and support Feb 2010 week 3 page 11 post 164

[CustardTart]

Thanks everyone. I will psyche myself up to getting on the scales before Valentine's Day. Yikes.

Good luck!!!

I looked at the online WW, but I think I would prefer the support (shame) of getting weighed each week at a class. I've found one that is on at 7pm, so I might be brave and go along...

Go for it!!!

...unfortunately all my friends are slim.

As will you be soon

What she said!!!

Has anyone watched Lorraine Kelly's Big Fat Challenge???

As will you be soon

Hopefully. I'm fed up of feeling uncomfortable in my clothes and buying things to 'cover up' instead of buying clothes I actual.y like. I absolutely dread the summer because there's more of me exposed and I can't go through another summer wearing cardigans and pretending to others that I'm not hot.

I don't think there's one of us on here who hasn't felt like that, Joolz...

Thanks. I'm determined to dump the cardigans and get a bit more fashionable.

Thanks everyone.

Good luck with the new group - I have to say i think it's terrible your old gorup leder made somebody cry - we feel bad enough in the first place which is why we join slimming clubs!

I agree, I don't know what happened as I wasn't there but it was a friend of my sisters. She also upset me a few weeks ago too.

well done hunny

that other leader should be reported

I agree but I don't think she has been.

Hi everyone!
I have finally stopped using my youngest DD as an excuse for my weight gain - as she is 2 and a half, I think it's about time.

I've done Weight Watchers before and lost almost 3 stone but all of the meetings seem to be at 5.30 or 6.00 which just isn't practical when you've got 3 children. Other times are when I'm working.

I've just ordered the Paul Mckenna book too. Not too sure about that though.

My self-esteem is too low for me to weigh myself just yet (and I'm not posting it on here until I get over the potential shock) but I thought I'd get a weight loss ticker in a couple of weeks and join you for a bit of support, if that's ok.

Well done Joolz, half the battle is starting so your doing well already. Good luck.

Hope everythings ok hun.

Well done to all so far, I have lost another 1lb this week which means through January I lost half a stone. It wasn't easy last week, the Mother in Law was making pies and my son was making cakes so I am happy I did this well.

Better week ahead I hope.

Best of luck of those still to weigh.

Well done Steve

I think i'm all caught up now!

Everyone is doing so well, like some of you I have written off January. I have changed my SW group as I didn't like the approach of the woman at my old group, she was very tough with people and actually made one woman cry.

Anyway I have been this morning to a different group, I was dreading stepping on those scales as I haven't been weighed since 16th December and have not really been on "the plan" properly since then. However I decided to get it over with and start again from today. Well I guess i've been harder on myself than I realised as amazingly I lost one pound!!!! Which also mean't I got my one stone award!

Good luck for this week to you all.

Well done Claire - I know what you mean about evil slimming club leaders. I hated my old SW leader too - she wasn't even that thin so it made you wonder if she was practising what she was preaching

Don't feel too bad hun, you are among friends here and, as Karen has said, we have all felt the way you do at one time or another. Good luck in finding a club and getting to grips with it - the first step is the hardest

Hope you are OK Netty - see you again when you are ready

My old one was like that too. Although the new one today has lost over 10 stone and still has a way to go yet but it's nice having someone that is weighing in every week too at least they know how hard it can be.
