Tell me it can be done…

[RedorBlack]

So I've just been to my first SW meeting and have more to lose than I thought, 5st 3.5 to be precise.

I have to do this, I owe it to myself & my dd but it's going to be a long haul.

So please give me some hope and share your successes here

It certainly can be done, my friend has lost 5st so far and still has a bit to go. SW is a great way to do it, I lost 2st with them and have managed to keep most of it off

Good luck

Thanks slimjim and well done!

Can I ask how long it took you and your friend?

I'm reading my slimming world books now! Ready to start tomorrow......I want to lose 4 stone.Its going to be a long road

We are dieting twins (almost) I started today and have 5st 2.5lbs to lose throws self to floor and weeps and wails

Sunshine & claret, good to meet some virtual slimming friends!

A lady in my group has lost 7 stone in a year. It has been amazing to watch her shrink! Five stone, at an average of 7lbs a month? You could be there by October, probably much sooner. You could very easily lose your first stone in six weeks and then it tends to slow down a bit. But stick with it and you'll definitely get there.

Good luck.

Loads of women I work with have lost weight with Slimming World. It's the only diet I've seen anyone do where they keep the weight off long term/permanently. It's not a diet, because they're always bloody eating it's changing your eating habits for life.

7 stone in a year is amazing and well beyond my wildest dreams. I think I will be taking the scenic route but I need to stay on board and not getting off at each stop and disappearing which is my usual game plan (hence why I am 5 stone heavier than I want to be). I admitted to one of my work colleagues how much I weighed today and I was mortified. Hopefully this feeling of mortification will stay with me!

Good luck!! I joined slimming world 8 weeks ago and had just over two stone to lose!! So far ive done 16lbs, and i really dont stop eating xx

Thanks everyone, that has definitely give me hope
