Thanks ladies.

I relly hope I can lose 2lb next week. Then if I do 1.5 the following week I'll get a silver 7!

Hello another new member here

I have officially started slimming world today, I tried weight watchers last year but it wasnt for me, a few girls at work are on slimming world and love it so I'm giving that a go (always helps when you have people to keep you right ). I have lost half a stone so far, but want to keep to a better diet.

Unfortunetly I cant join any local classes as there are all on too early for me, as I am crazy busy with the end of the financial year at work

Trying to get my head round it all - I have planned my meals for this week so that is taken care of

 

[natalielongstaff]

welcome Gemma, good luck xx

yes ! i dont eat/drink after 3pm on weigh-in night....and i wear my lightest clothes

LOL ~ Guilty as charged. When I got to goal I went in wearing barely enough clothes so as not to get arrested

...BUT this time around I weighed in on the first meeting in my heaviest, AND had lots to drink beforehand!

So now I can actually wear jeans on Mondays as I used to have to sit at work cold on WI days. I do wear lighter jeans than my first ngiht oens though.

It also has the benefit of if I really need one week then I can wear light clothes and maybe gain myself a sneaky lb!

That's a much better idea as you'll be comfortable at the meeting, I managed to wear my jeans last week and was only 1lb above goal so I was delighted with that and it's given me a push to try and get back to goal wearing my jeans.

Well done to everyone who's lost this week

Well done everyone.

Does anyone on here that is doing Slimming World know if you can change groups half way through your countdown? I have about 4 or 5 weeks that i've pre paid and I want to change groups.

Hope you get that sorted, Claire!!!

Ok Im in, had my first weigh In yesterday after my operation and Im still in shock as to how much weight I have gained over Christmas and the last 2 weeks of just laying about recovering I guess, so started my diet today and will check in every Monday Good Luck everyone and well done to all those already started and have loss.

Might get myself a weight ticker, as I dont have a holiday ticker

Welcome Sue!!! And tons of luck, hun!!!
The 'inactivity weight' is the killer IMO!!! I gained several stones a few years ago because I was off my feet for a few months with damaged hip ligaments...

And welcome to you too, Gemma!!! Another bride onboard!!!
There are quite a few SW members on here so I'm sure they can help with questions - tho' it sounds like you know what you're doing... Good luck, hun!!

here are my before and after pics ( sorry about the quality...they are pictures of a picture ! )

[CustardTart]

Amazing, Nat!!! You must be so proud of yourself!!!

 

[gemmybear83]

Wow Nat, you look amazing!!

 

[PoppyAnna]

Nice before and after Nat, well done

Love that pic of you, Ellie and Matthew

 

[CustardTart]

OK. This is me in January 2004. I'd lost a stone when this photo was taken but there are so few pics of me at this time (I was an expert at camera avoidance ), this is the nearest I can get...

And this was me another 2.5 stone lighter at my Vow Renewal in September 2007. I weigh about half stone lighter than this now... Happy day!!!

Fantastic before and after pics girls, brilliant, well done

Right now I could post a pic of me as I am now, and one from about 3 years ago when I was 3 stone lighter, but I think that defeats the object

Amazing photo's Nat & Karen!

Hope you get that sorted, Claire!!!

Thanks hun, I am going to call the woman at the new class this morning and see if she will let me move over now as I can't face going back which isn't helping with my weight loss.
