That I have now lost 2 1/2stones since the 3rd of January.
I go to Slimming World and after trying to lose weight for over half my life I am finally doing it.
I don't expect any replies but I'm so happy and damn proud of myself. Grin

Good for you! (You ratbag!)

For all of us that haven't gotten round to getting our shit together.....

Tell me more! What is all the slimming world claptrap?

SkinnybitchWannabe · 30/05/2013 23:00

Thanks everyone.
It's fab Mrs. No weighing or measuring, eat loads of lovely fresh ingredients.
It fits in with my family life so well, I don't have to cook seperate meals anymore and I can enjoy a big juicy steak without feeling guilty Wink

Whoop...well done you!

FriedSprout · 30/05/2013 23:02

That's brilliant. Now comes the fun part, having to get rid of cloths you never liked, and only bought because they fitted.

You should feel proud, very proud you skinnybitch you Grin

tinypumpkin · 30/05/2013 23:03

Yay, well done you :)

hellhasnofurylikeahungrywoman · 30/05/2013 23:11

Well done! Is it easy to follow? My son would love to lose weight and it would be easier if we could all eat the same meals.

HeffalumpTheFlump · 30/05/2013 23:25

Well done!! You should be so proud Grin

MorrisZapp · 30/05/2013 23:27

Look, just tell us everything. Don't hold back. HOW DID YOU LOSE IT YOU SKINNY CAAAAAH

SkinnybitchWannabe · 30/05/2013 23:38

Wow! Thanks all for your lovely replies. I simply follow the plan and eat tonnes!
Hellhas Im finding it pretty simple to follow at the moment, I only ever cook different meals if Im making a curry because my youngest 2 ds don't like it. if your son is between 11-15 he can go for free with a paying member.
Im not trying to promote Slimming World because I expect that's not allowed on MN but it really is working for me.

He's 21 but he'd struggle to go to a group as he has Asperger's. I wonder if I could go instead. My BMI is within acceptable limits but I'd like to lose a bit of weight too.

Apileofballyhoo · 30/05/2013 23:50

Well done Skinny. It's lovely to read something happy. Hope you can get something sorted for your DS hellhas.

SkinnybitchWannabe · 31/05/2013 08:17

You can follow the plan online only Hellhas. The website is fantastic.
I find the meetings invaluable because I pick up so may tips and the support is amazing.
Good luck to your son, my middle son is going to start soon

Could you make up the spare bedroom cos I am moving in with you?
Well done, SW plan is amazing. The recipe books mean you can pretty much adapt anything to the plan and cook proper meals.

xigris · 31/05/2013 19:32

Bloody well done!! You have every right to be proud of yourself Flowers for you! I'm also doing SW. I think it's witchcraft as I'm seem to be eating loads but still losing the weight (although not as much as you!) EnvySmile

raisah · 01/06/2013 13:04

Congratulations. Well done you what a fantastic achievement.

I will mention slimming world to my cousin, she has to lose 4 stones before getting pregnant as it will make her morbidly obese otherwise.

ladymariner · 01/06/2013 14:00

Brilliant, no wonder you're delighted....well done you xxx

DaysieGoneBananas · 01/06/2013 14:09

Shout as loud as you like Grin and i think you need double congrsts for sticking to it. Every diet needs willpower. Even if you find slimming world works for you it wouldn't if you didnt have the determination to stick to the plan so have a big old pat on the back for just keeping to it x

BabyMakesTheBoobiesGoLeaky · 01/06/2013 14:52

Well done,bet you're delighted.

BeeMom · 01/06/2013 14:59

Keep on shouting! You are amazing.

I have lost (no I am not lying) over 10 stone. I still have some to go - but I know how hard you are working. Keep it up, you deserve to be proud of yourself.

UniqueAndAmazing · 01/06/2013 15:04

So you should be proud of yourself.
That's a fantastic achievement.

My friend does slimming world and it's really good - just healthy eating. :)

SkinnybitchWannabe · 01/06/2013 15:18

Thanks again Grin

I'm still over the moon about.

BeeMom I have about the same as you to lose in total. I cant wait to get to the same point as you. It's such a great feeling knowing there is light at the end of the tunnel.
