My amazing auggies ladies 💖 - another thread and heading for 6mths in !!!

Be proud of us all.

We conquered our first Christmas and many of us sts or lost. Which is a first.

Those who gained it was 1-2lbs (minus the lady who ate her family and gained 18lbs) 😂😂 and the gain has come off

So to a new 2025 - some are getting near their goal and thinking about maintenance

Some still have a way to go to get to their happy weight

Some are on the highest dose of 15

Some are 5 and below

Everyone welcome

Morning all, some fab results as usual! Well done on losses (I don’t think anyone has mentioned any sts or gains so far?)

@Blondeshavemorefun agree with others you’ve got to go try on - think you’ve just been unlucky! I think I’m going to head and buy some work pants today, mine are hanging off me! They are an 18 though, and I think I’m about a 16 now whispers maybe even a 14 but I’ve never been a 14 as an adult!

-2lbs today bringing me down to -4st13/-69lbs/-31kg 😦 1lb off 5st. Finally under 90kg. NSV I ran for 20 mins solid yesterday. Wasn’t even that tired - think I could have done another bit after so plan to add in some weights after my runs next week! I am ordering one more pen after this one so just going to see how much I can do in that time.

Wow - sorry! That was long. Been a super busy week so I haven’t checked in a lot.

Weigh ins: -7, -5, -3, -2, -5, -5, -1, -3, -1, -4, -1, -4, -2, -5, -0, -2, -1, -2, -3, -2, -1, -3, -1, -3, -2 ✨

Good morning all, thanks for the vitual strength for today. I'll need to try and not blub, thank you for telling us about your Mums beautiful cushions @20bloodypounds. When we went through all her jewellery there was a beautiful locket no one knew she had, it was from DH Dad, I never met him and even her sisters didn't know she had it which was very strange. He'd gotten lovely words engraved on it.

@SilverSprings510 your losses are always consistent i love your check in posts. I'm in awe of anyone who runs, go you xx

@PoemsForTea you're a new wummin emerging 😂

I'm 43lbs down so a human leg or maybe nearly and elephants heart ❤️

Well done on the loss @SilverSprings510

Good luck today @NippyNinjaCrab

Weigh day for me and STS which I was expecting after a large 4lb loss last week! Hopefully have a loss next week to take me to my 5 stone loss! Now I'm within a healthy weight expecting lots of STS so not cross about it!

The full dose is 60 clicks, so 40 clicks for 5.0 from a 7.5 pen as you want two thirds

@Azuresky68 The facebook page is Style Me Happy - Community, not sure if a link will work but will try - https://www.facebook.com/groups/704840856631858

This is the lady's website for analysis if anyone is interested, it's quite an expensive 'treat' but I did find it worthwhile - it's not stopped me living in leggings, sweatshirt and knock off uggs for the vast majority of my life, but it has helped me pull together one or two outfits that I look and feel a bit better in for those rare occasions I need to be a bit more dressed up. Which I now need to replace in smaller sizes - nicer problems to have I guess!

@MrsHerbs79 that's annoying! Definitely sounds like she likes being the slim sister. It's clearly about her and her issues, so don't let her make you feel any less proud of your progress and don't let it derail you from what you're trying (and already succeeding) to achieve. I got asked at a Christmas get together, 'how have you done it, is it the jabs?' and when I said yes two other people were like 'oh we're doing it too'. Except those people were still merrily knocking back the wine, a massive plate of buffet and a load of desert - which may have been a one off treat maybe, but from what they were saying doesn't sound like they've changed their eating much at all. So clearly some people do think you just jab yourself, carry on as normal and the weight magics itself away. Best just to leave people to it and let them think whatever they're going to think - not always easy I know.

I love the style me happy Facebook page, really lovely community. I definitely recommend an analysis, it hasn't revolutionised my wardrobe but it does help me purchase flattering clothes that work together.

It really helps me choose makeup though. The right lippy makes such a difference and takes seconds.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/02/2025 12:06

When I saw one on my first Safari I thought the elephant had 5 legs. I even said to my husband, my god, that poor elephant is disabled. ,

Weepixie · 08/02/2025 15:49

And just a quickie as I’m babysitting -

I had my colours done by House of Colour about 7 years ago then once I’d got to grips with it I had the style session done - I’m a natural romantic.

It’s fun to do and I’m so much better turned out now.

oh and I agree about the make up. Not that I could do make up before I did the colour session but HOC have a 90 second make up that they teach you and I love doing it in the morning. For other occasions I can’t ramp it up a bit.

NippyNinjaCrab · 08/02/2025 15:59

@Weepixie I'm definitely going to get mine done and the 90s make up routine sounds fab x

SilverSprings510 · 08/02/2025 17:02

I can’t believe it but I’ve actually bought size 14 work trousers and they actually fit 🥹 the last time I was in a 14 I was 21! I’m absolutely made up. They’re a touch tight but in a week or two they’ll be perfect 😁

Another nsv today. I wanted a new pair of knee high boots as my current ones are EEE width and super curvy calf and frankly they look ridiculous flapping around. I ordered standard boots from boohoo which were delivered today and not only do they fit...they're roomy!! Also ordered some petite jeans which tend to fit smaller and the 16 was too big, 14 fit perfectly 👌 I guess I'm a 14 now! Another milestone today too....I deleted the Yours clothing app from my phone. I am never going to shop there again. That's my promise to the new me!

NippyNinjaCrab · 08/02/2025 20:30

Awww @4pink1blue and @SilverSprings510 i love this! I've cleared out more stuff today as I'm not wearing much because they don't fit. Tried on a dress I love and although it's big it actually looks nice the way it's hanging but I won't get much out of it. My belly is actually holding some stuff up 😂

Tried on the m&s Eva jeans and the light blue are good but a tad muffins on the waist, everywhere else they fit nicely, I could wear them in public. The Indigo ones, same style, nope be a wee half stone before they are fit for public use 😂
Now tomorrow I need to wear the 14's that are not too badly baggy but my arse looks like a burst balloon in em. I don't have any other clothes that fit me, I've donated them or chucked them soooo I need to work out what I can wear for lunch with DH tomorrow. I'm fine for tops because my boobs fill them just the bottoms... sigh.... imagine moaning cos my clothes don't fit cos I'm slimmer haha I never thought I'd be in this position 😅

NippyNinjaCrab · 08/02/2025 20:33

I've worked out by trying loads on that a stretchy 12 is good for bottoms and top. Fitted top is a 14 depending on the fabric content. Non stretchy bottom is a 14, well with what I've tried on with shorts and skirts for summer. I'm a happy happy crab if that was to be my body forever. Xx

owlyboo · 08/02/2025 20:39

NSV for me today. Wore one of my new outfits I got from vinted. Pair of Lucy and yak dungarees brand new for £15 (bargain!) and they were drumroll ......................................

a size 10! Are they generous 10 yes but still august me could have only dreamt!!

Well done on the NSV's @4pink1blue and @NippyNinjaCrab well done!

NippyNinjaCrab · 08/02/2025 20:46

Omg @owlyboo 😂😂😂 you're the slinkiest ever 😍
How are you styling the dungarees? I got a pair in the sale, yours are the fab bargain BTW. I love mine but haven't worn them out out yet. Mine are light green xx
