I was doing slimming world until last night. I was doing it since June and haven't lost a single pound since Aug.

I think it's time for change. I am starting WW on Tuesday. Any body else up for joining me.

Hey ladies, i've said it before and I'll say it again, don't pay too much attention to what the scales say. Go by how your clothes fit and how you feel -- I bet you're feeling healthier now, aren't you? Well, that's the main thing. Keep at it.

oregonianabroad · 29/04/2008 22:39

PS banana,
I puff up like a balloon during my period. Mine started on Sun and by Tues I had already dropped another pound. Just wait till next week, you'll see an even bigger difference hopefully.

bananaknickers · 29/04/2008 22:39

I feel slimmer even though I still feel blooby because I am on.I think thats why it was a shock to have a gain. I cryed when I came out.

bananaknickers · 29/04/2008 22:41

oregonianabroad, thanks for the encouragement

ShortandSweet · 30/04/2008 07:14

Hi Ladies I lost a pound this week.

Banana it will only be due to your time of the month. Please don't upset yourself because next week you will probably lose 4lbs.

Liz when life gets in the why or you feel crap you can get put off your diet. Today is a new day.

Heres hoping to a better week ahead

Well done shortandsweet

Well done shortandsweet

My first weigh in's tomorrow

This and only this has stopped me from hitting the vino and crisps .. the children are being particularly trying

Thinking calm thoughts

oregonianabroad · 01/05/2008 21:27

OK, I am going out tomorrow nite for a much needed girls' night out, at ASK pizza. I've just been looking at their menu and drooling, but WTF can I have?? And I intend to go out after too, god damn it. Shall I just munch carrot sticks all day and then throw caution to the wind or what??! I really don't fancy a cheeseless pizza.

Still, I've stuck to it pretty religiously for 2 weeks now, which is pretty monumental in my life.

lizandlulu · 01/05/2008 21:35

jusy have a small pizza and plenty of salad with it.
i love cheeseless pizza! i hate all the goopy cheese they put on them

LittleBigMansMum · 02/05/2008 08:38

oregonianabroad · 02/05/2008 15:55

LBMMum, don't be discouraged. Half a stone is still half a stone.
Have you tried the kick start menu?

not having the greatest day. meant to save points for tonight, but this naughty voice int eh back of my brain keeps whispering, 'well, you're going to blow it tonight, so may as well have that now too.'

sigh.

laughalot · 02/05/2008 15:56

Can I share my news I bought a size 14 top today I was dancing round the shop

lizandlulu · 02/05/2008 17:40

wow laughalot thats great

i would love to go into any shop and be able ot buy stuff. i have a 18/20 at the mo depending on which shop it is, but still cant get into river island clothes

sagacious · 02/05/2008 19:53

Littlebigman: Its my 1st week I am all enthusiastic and have stuck to it properly (plus exercise) next week might not be so great

Laughalot: Excellent !

Lizandlulu: RiverIsland always comes up really small (when I was a 12 I had a pair of size 16 RI jeans (bought off ebay) they were still an odd shape and never looked right)

ShortandSweet · 06/05/2008 07:14

LovesTents · 06/05/2008 22:33

Well done all losers!

Having a bad week this week, damn the bank holiday weekend!

ShortandSweet · 07/05/2008 07:15

Well I don't know how but I have stayed the same this week. I am glad of that.

OP posts:
RiaButterflew · 08/05/2008 12:27

I've stayed the same too . I seem to be stuck at 18-4, If I could just get under 18 I would feel I'm getting somewhere.

If the weather holds at least we can drag the DCs off on some serious walking over the weekend.

mixedmama · 08/05/2008 17:18

Hi ladies,

Havent caught up yet, but have just started a new job so had no time to get online.

My update is I have lost 11 pounds in the past 4 weeks so very pleased, but have been a little slack at counting properly so need to get back into it.

Will catch up with all your news now.

lizandlulu · 08/05/2008 20:39
