Grin It would have been great if that did work. could have made millions from that one Wink

Hi! Have had my thread deleted I hope.Smile

I'm here, ready to start on the 7th! God I'm desperate to loose this weight, I dont feel like me. Mirrors & any shiney surfaces are not my friends, I hate seeing myself.

northernmonkey · 30/08/2010 21:43

Your pretty close to me then. dont worry about it. A friend of mine recently lost 9 and she still has more to go.
Another lost 13 so i know it can be done.
I just wish i could do it :(

elmofan · 30/08/2010 21:45

You will start to notice a difference after you loose 10lb, that's when clothes start to feel a bit looser, other people notice that something ( they're not sure what ) is different, you get the "you're looking well" comments.

That's my initial goal, 10lb.Grin

SgtAngua · 30/08/2010 22:02

< tries to chop the 3 stones up into managable bits>

TitsalinaBumSquash · 30/08/2010 22:11

Oh yes much easier to set little achievable goals, then when you get there (and we will get there!) you feel ace and it spurs you on to loose more.

I shall tell you all a secret, then once its out there i have to do this otherwise i will feel silly. I'm am loosing weight because DP and i want to start ttc for baby number 3 next year when DS2 is at school and i want to be in good health before we do.

eek! There its out in the world of cyberspace now! I haven't told anyone in 'Real life' yet.

MilkNoSugarPlease · 30/08/2010 22:12

I searched for you but a bunch of people come up! is your PP a pic of 3 people?
