The 3 stone club

This was mrspinks idea but I thinks its great!

We have 3 stone to loose but cant go to clubs or gyms so we have to do it from home, so anyone else in the same boat join in so that we can give each other loads of support and encouragment as well as lots of usefull ideas and tips!!

Can I join? I really need something to help me - I'm quite good in the day but come evening I just pig out. Its as though there are 2 me's and one of them is determined to wreck the other's good intentions. I'm my own worst enemy but I don't seem able to stop myself

I lost a stone last year using myfooddiary.com - but various circustances stopped me using it and I've put back 10lbs (at least I'm 5lbs down!).

an apple
2 slices of wafter thin ham with spinach
WW Beef goulash.

i have had a seriously bad day involving lots of bread and chocolate! Oh well, back on the wagon tomorrow - nothing but fruit and veg for me i think!

RubyMummy · 12/01/2006 10:57

Can I join you?? I am determined to lose 3 stone this year (hopefully by my daughter's first birthday in june...) From 12st to 9. Started WW week before Xmas and have lost 4lbs so far. Need serious encouragement and willing to offer lots in return :-)

RubyMummy · 12/01/2006 10:59

I find this is great for some recipe ideas! In case it helps anyone :-)

Copper · 12/01/2006 13:48

Well, I've only lost 1lb so far - not 5lbs like some - green with envy! 1lb is better than nothing

hi id like to join too. i need to lose 3stone at least so i can get back to pre pregnancy weight of 10stone. i have lost 5lb so far just by cutting out junk and eating meat veg and potatoes every night. i am going to start swimming 3 times a week and running around after the kids helps too. good luck everyone and well done to those who have lost some already!

cranberryjampots · 14/01/2006 20:23

Ive been to weigh myself today and have lost the enormous amount of ...........

2lbs! grrrrr however it is in the right direction and I have started my period today so hopefully with a bit more work I can squeeze that up to 4lbs next week!

And Ive had 3 slices of pizza this evening (although left the crust and had no garlic bread) - still within WW points but feel very naughty!
