Thread: A welcome to all our new members in 2012!

Hi I'm Kerry I turned 30 recently & think it's about time I kicked my ass into gear! I've been on slimming world before & lost over a stone but then went on holiday & couldn't get back into the swing of things
Me & my hubby really want to start a family soon but having PCOS & being so overweight is making things a lot harder & getting me down
Im really hoping to loose a good chunk of weight by my birthday in September, I'm feeling very motivated & hopeful that this time I can do it!! (So sick of eating crap)
Good luck to everyone who is starting there journey!!

Hello all, I'm new.

I've been loosely following this website from afar for the last 12 months.

Without taking it too seriously, I'm delighted that I managed to lose just under 2st in 2011.

This year, I'm going all out to lose another 2st. It's going to be tough, but I'm hoping by having a look to see how all you wonderful people are doing it, then I'll stay strong instead of throwing in the towel when the dark nights draw in!

Hi Kerry

This sounds so similar to me! I was recently diagnosed with PCOS, and it really does get you down.
I'm aiming to lose 7stone this year, and get back to myself! I wish you and Hubby well, and will keep checking on your progress.

And remember, PCOS only lessers your family chances, it doesn't stop them all together Stay positive! x

Well Done!!! Thats fantastic news, big congratulations

Hi. I am a returning member to minimins and i am hoping to lose 2 - 3 stone by August as i'm going on a cruise. I am hoping to get lots of inspiration from all the other members on the website. I am trying the slimfast option for now and see how it go's.

Thank you!! I am also hoping to lose 7st but at minute I'm aiming for 5st
I really do try staying positive but my consultant at hospital is horrible he won't even discuss anything with me until I lose weight but I'm so determined though to do it more than ever this year
Wishing you all the best & good luck!! Xx

Hi everyone I just joined this is my first post
site looks great for motivation as this is exactly what I need hearing success stories and other people's journeys really helps. Any way I am joining weight watchers in the morning (started the diet today tho) Not looking forward to that first weight in but has to be done ha I have about 2 stone to loose as I have gone crazy the last while eating takeaways and junk food
My menu today was:
Breakfast:
2 egg omelette with onions and mushrooms (low calorie spray) tea with low fat milk and splenda
Lunch:
Small brown roll with low fat butter, Small tin tuna in sunflower oil with salad
Dinner:
Chili con carne weight watchers recipe with basmati rice. Yummy
Snacks:
Grapes and orange

Have to say was very satisfied and look forward to seeing results.
Best of luck to everyone who is also starting out

hi everyone, iv just joined up this is my first post. im 23 and i lost 2.5 stone on weightwatchers i went from 188lbs (13st 6lbs) to 154lbs (11st), i have recently put 10lbs on over the past few weeks and i can really feel it, i feel disgusting so im desperate to get it off, and more would definitly be a bonus!
since ww changed to the propoints system i starting struggling with it and finding myself feeling starving so i have decided to give slimfast a whirl. its my first day and im suprised how easy it feels, i havent felt hungry all day. hopefully this will work 4 me x

Just joined this forum and am hoping for some inspiration to stick to a good nutritious low calorie diet, actually a lifetime change in eating habits and exercise habits. I hope the members of this group can give me encouragement to become healthier and more attractive by losing weight (55 pounds!) and exercising more.

Hello I am a new member today, with a huge amount of weight to lose Still got to start some where i suppose. I am not sure yet how to work this site, tried to create a weight loss ticker thingy but seems I have failed miserably!! Oh well keep trying!

Hiya all,
I'm Kelly,29 yrs old,5"2 and weigh 11 stone 12 lbs.
In May 2011 I weighed my heaviest at 14 stone 6 lbs.I joined lipotrim and made it down to 10 stone 12 lbs.I stopped lipotrim in Sep 2011 and have acquired a stone.I'm not prepared to put all my weight back on,so I returned to lipotrim yesterday.
I found this site by accident but it's totally what I need,as I struggle to believe that I can ever make it down to 9 stone and so far I've found soooo much encouragement and I'm already feeling stronger.

Best of luck to everyone for their weight loss in 2012

Seriously Im rubbish so Im not sure if its the right diet for me - but I am going to give it a go. Good luck to all of you. Whatever happens 2012 is going to be a wonderful year.

Hi everyone

Re-joined slimming world Wednesday after reaching target last summer with a 4st lose and have since gained 30lb. So disappointed with myself but I am determined to reach target again and change my eating habits.
Good luck everyone, we can do it
