Thread: hi all :)

Well i joined slimming world yesterday so wanted to join a site where other people know what im going through what struggles i will go through and hopefully i will have some support and advice. I weighed in at 12st 6 which for me is great as 2 years ago i was almost 16 stone and a size 22. After giving birth to my 3rd child something happened and i dropped 2 dress sizes and lost 3 stone dont know how as i wasnt trying but i was definitely more active. I then joined weight watchers and managed to lose another stone taking me to an almost 4 stone loss my goal has always been to reach 11stone and although i havent dieted for a year i maintained my weight so im starting slimming world and doing extra easy.. its going to take me a while to adjust to slimming world but im just hoping that with my exercise and slimming world i can finally reach my goal weight of 11stone by the summer... by the way my name is kelly. Hi to you all

Hi Kelly

Sounds like you've been really successful already! Lol
Welcome to the site, I'm sure you'll find lots of support here. It's a great source of ideas and inspiration and nice people too =)

Good luck

Thank you for the reply sharon.. i hope to find a lot of people who can relate to me and we can share advice to one another it would be nice to know if i felt like a binge or was tempted to snack on junk that i could write here and someone would change my mind and help ne resist temptation. Ha

Exactly! My first weigh in was last Thursday and because my scales went weird I didn't know if I'd lost put on or stayed the same but even tho I was so disheartened, I didn't reach for the chocolate or crisps, I came on here and stayed on track and at yesterday weigh in (on new scales lol) lost 4lb.
I was so chuffed that I didn't just give up and pig out cos that's what the old me would have done. You really can get inspiration from here. Have a good look round, there's loads of stories to read about people who have lost weight and kept if off.
WE CAN DO THIS =)

4lb well done. My first weigh in is next thursday and i am nervous but i always get nervous before a weigh in. Well done for resisting temptation if i get tempted i shall be reading over your post again. All i want is to reach my goal weight by the summer and hopefully with the exercise im doing i will tone up too... PMA all the way. We will do it
