Me! I joined a couple weeks ago, 10.5lb loss in that time. Got 31.5lbs to target, could get there by Christmas by losing just under 2lb a week. Probably a little unrealistic but gonna try my best!

Me! I join tomorrow. Aiming slow and steady but would like to be a stone lighter by Christmas. Two stone would be amazing but I'm going to be realistic about it

Can I join please? I have all the books at home from my many previous failed attempts at losing the baby weight. I've got a stone to lose, but ideally a stone and a half. I'm 100% determined this time, I'm sick of looking in the mirror and hating myself. This is not me, I am not this size. I want to get my body hang ups sorted before baby DD is old enough to pick up on them!

has anything changed on the plan since last year?

I might join you. I'm fed up of carting around an extra 2 stone but I last around a week before giving up. I don't know what's wrong with me I hate being this size but have the willpower of a mushroom.
Was going to try WW but SW suits me better if only I can just stick to it!

Yay! We can do this girls. Around 12 weeks to Xmas, so maybe a stone or stone and a half? I too have the willpower of a mushroom. Good luck everyone 😊

Oh and I taped Bake Off to watch tomorrow - thought the temptation would be less after a (hopefully positive) weigh in....

Going to properly restart after freshers (starts Sunday) I'm hoping being at uni, on a budget etc will help

Weigh in today. 3.5lb off. Which is better than nothing but not as good as the 5.5lb the scales were showing at the weekend and I keep getting told slow and steady wins the race!

You can all do it. Sometimes that random person on the internet just helps keep you on the straight and narrow.

1.5 off yesterday. So, that's 6.5 off in three years. Really, really want to get my first award next week. Looks like it's going to be a slow process for me.
