I was 20st.
I've recently lost 2st.

I'd like to be 10st, so I have 8st to go.

Does anyone want to join me? I'm taking Orlistat and trying to stick to 1700 cals/day.

All welcome!

Well done, I always find that when I’ve been eating well overall that a few treats doesn’t matter.

I weighed myself today and surprising had lost 100grams despite having a pretty bad week exercise wise.

My SIL came to our house today, and we haven't seen each other for two years.

The first thing she said was "You've lost a lot of weight".

Yay me.
🤣

@FlabMonsterIsDietingAgain you're doing really well.

How many diets have you been on? For me, it's been two a year, for ever.

Loads and loads, started at weight watchers when I was 11 😂

I did really well during lockdown, I think because there was no pressure of social eating or explaining to anyone why I was having a salad instead of did chips for lunch. Then lockdown ended and cake started again.

Oh wow that's amazing . You must feel great .
I have lost nothing - just coming back now and need to be focused

Springcat · 09/08/2025 18:39

I thought loosing weight would be the answer to all my problems
But they are still there
Which is surprising as I thought my weight was causing my anxiety and not getting out of the house much .
Unless I just haven't lost enough yet .
I don't know
It hasn't been the big deal I thought it would be .
But my body will thank me for lugging round less weight

Did you start with slimming world

NLmum4 · 11/08/2025 08:04

Yes started with slimming worth but need in person meeting for the accountability but none near me now. I'm doing an nhs programme now which we meet each week - I do feel the accountability. Lost 8 lb which is a start

Springcat · 16/08/2025 13:59

That's brilliant op
Well done
8lbs is fantastic
