Hi ladies
Re joining again next week. Feel like if I don’t do it this time, I won’t do it at all.
Could you all spam me with your success stories?

DS2 is 5 months old and I’ve lost 2 stone in the last 18 weeks.

If you stick to plan 100% you will lose weight.

I’ve lost over three stone in six months. Gone from a 16/18 to a 10/12. Life is fucking amazing now.

Started in January as I needed to lose weight to be considered for surgery. I lost 3st between January and July. I’m hoping to go for my 4st award before November. It is slowing now but my surgery has increased my quality of life.

Agree wholeheartedly, and would like to suggest this as a headline on the cover of the SW magazine.

Many times on here have I read things along the line of ‘I lost weight but I wasn’t any happier / life wasn’t different’.* But, fuck me, am I happier now. I am a totally changed person. That sounds wanky but it has turned my life around.*

Love the headline idea.** Not sure they would go for it?!

I lost 5 and a half stone about ten years ago and have kept it off, more or less, ever since. I am SO much happier now!

A very inspiring post.
I gained 2 and a half stone during pregnancy and have to lose 10lbs to get back to my pre pregnancy weight. Sounds like SW could help.

I’m a target member for almost a year. I lost 3 stone 3 dress sizes and I’m back in my size 8 jeans. I never thought I’d lose the baby weigh.. I had kind of resigned myself to the fact that my body had just changed! Then one day I went along to a group and I’ve never looked back. It’s most definitely a life changer, I have more energy due to eating the right kind of food and my confidence is back because I feel like the old me.

I lost 3 stone in 8 months. Gone from a 16 to a 12 (which I’m quite happy with, I’m designed to be curvy!). I just about recognise myself in a mirror now. People I haven’t seen in a while do a double take. I eat so much better. I’ve been ill recently but I still eat well because I know it helps.

Also need a kick up the arse! I'm size 14, weigh 12 stone and I'm 171cm. Got two kids and weight has crept on. Should I sign up??

I would recommend it @HollowCity . It's easy to do, as there isn't too much measuring involved and it's simple. And if you follow it, it works!
