How we all feeling about the week ahead?

Im hoping for a good loss this week as ive joined slimming world so full of new resolve!!

Can I just ask something too - when you send your weight in on a thursday can you include your mumsnet name - I remember most times from the email address but sometimes get a bit stuck so that will be very helpful!

Thanks

I'm still in - forgot to get on the scales this morning - 2lb off I think, will wait for Becca to confirm.

I lost 2lbs in my first 4 days on SW! Quite pleased so far but have the weekend to come...

It's amazing how much better I felt mentally when I went on the scales last night. Physically, my feet don't ache so much after alot of walking now. So feeling alot better being a stone lighter. Think I was only going to go for ½ stone originally, but having lost a full stone I'm going to go for another ½ stone.

plus 0.5 for me

have never gained on a diet before.

I'm feeling a lot better for having lost a stone, much more energy and am finding I don't get anywhere near so hungry as I did. I've still got a long way to go, but I am certain I will get there. DS was weighed yesterday and is nearly 19lbs, next mini target is to lose another 3lbs so I've lost the same weight as him. I'm away for the weekend but am staying with a friend who is also counting points and has been busy cooking up low point curries for us so we can spend some points on important stuff like wine !

It feels great and after moaning about no-one noticing three people have commented on my weight loss in the last few days! Someone today even told me I didn't need to lose any more weight, although I don't agree, I still need to lose 12lbs to be within normal range so that is my next target.

MN Mamas makes a huge difference, I have lost weight before on my own but find having the support of everyone and being able to exchange tips etc really helps. Big thanks to Becca for all the hard work she puts into this!
