Ok here's a copy of what I wrote earlier:

here goes: [gulp]
current weight: 10st 8lb
goal weight: 8st 10lb
weekly weight loss goal: 1.5lb (as bfing)
diet: weightwatchers
am on 30pts a day which is loads but still seem to get hungry and keep binging and breaking the diet! Also am hoping my ovulation comes back and can conceive so am in a race against time as I can't really diet while pregnant.

Can I join - I'm from the sept 05 thread!!


I'm 65 kilos - & want to be 58 kilos (to fit my summer clothes I couldn't wear last year!) - I think about 10 stone & should be 9 stone. Have lost about 25 kilos since giving birth with bf & general run around!

I don't want to diet just take more exercise & not eat biscuits!!! I'm bf & this helps use up the flab!!

Repeat of mine.

Weight - 11st 7lbs (huge fat cow)
Goal - 10st (fat cow)
dream weight - 9st (Bootylicous!), yeah - dream on..................

weekly weight loss goal - 1lb
on SW, but the weight, after the first stone, has not shifted. Might have to go to something more drastic - any suggestions???

How about some inspiration you guys? Whose figure do you really admire? I like the curvy girls like Kate Winslet and Kelly Brook but would love to be long and lean like Uma Thurman.

I can't think of anybody's I really admire! But I know in the past when I was slim I looked better!

Just in general though - sense of humour and everything including the looks! Plus she's DH's fav actress so I might be a little bit jealous Smile

Anyone know how much bfing norks weigh so I can add that to my pre-preg weight to get a more healthy goal weight? Grin

No, honestly you'd be surprised! Grin. Way to do it is to kneel down and (ahemm) flop them on to scales. I am going on estimate for 'full', rather than empty Grin

Weighing scales read just under 12lbs [shame]
(I'm sure they are dodgy, will check on another - Wink)

Want to lose 2-3 stone, but 2 would be great.
Weight gain all round the middle.

Endeavour to cut out junk food/quick fix food.

Don't be envious - they don't flop cos they're not v. big! I did find a website that corroborated what you are saying about the scales but said you must do it at right height so you're not putting any body weight on it. I think rather than mess around I'll just take your 4lb and go with it which means if I assume they were 1lb to begin with, I can add 3lb to my goal weight - yay! How many lb are in a stone anyway?!

BTW thanks ChaCha for the idea of doing this - I have been soooooo good since Monday! The accountability def. helps!
