Hello,

Wow I have had a total wake up call today after munching my way through most of 2014 and recently my size 18's starting to cut me in half I have decided I NEED to sort this out, I was going to put it off until after Christmas but I have to start now.

I got on the scales this morning and got the shock of my life 16 stone 9lbs and the most I have weighed. I'm going to be on the slimfast/tesco shake plan and hope to get off at least a stone before Xmas, this will cushion the blow a bit lol

I have been looking at the post today and lots of motivation on site hope your great results rub off on me :)

Hiya! Hell of a shock isn't it, when you blow the dust off the scales and step on. At least you are doing something now. I keep the Tesco and ASDA powder shakes in the cupboard in case I'm in a hurry and in danger of falling off the healthy eating plan by grabbing a biscuit of slice of cake instead of lunch. I don't know if this is any help, but I keep some gelatine in and make a few mousses with the powder as a change. One packet of powdered gelatine is enough for 2 meals. I melt it in a little boiling water, add to the, made up before I start, shakes blitz with a stick blender pour into 2 dishes and chill until set in the fridge.

Hi Ginger, I'm new too and a similar weight to you! It's so daunting isn't it? But the only way is down :)

Are you following a particular eating plan?
 
That's great you've taken the plunge to start before xmas, hopefully that'll mean you won't ovedo it too much at xmas and then you'll be on track for new year. It's actually a great idea cos it's so much harder to get moving after indulging all through xmas time making it a struggle to start the diet before March! Good on you and keep up it.

Hey!!! Don't worry about it hun! You could have kept avoiding it and his the scales from sight but at least your on the ball!! Good luck with your shakes and let us know if it works!! I went onto slimming world after I had my 1st baby a year ago...I was 11.9 before I had him and wearing a tight 10 comfy 12 I'm now wearing a 16 that just fits!! I did well on SW but couldn't stick to it so! I have no idea what I weigh and dread to think!!! BUT I'm off to success slimming tomorrow 1st meeting! I'm sooo scared but happy too!
 
Morning aboyne01 It's scary but you will be fine hun, I've never heard of success slimming before what kind of plan do you follow with that plan?

Good luck for your meeting and let's get to our target together

Best of luck to you Ginger. I've put a bit of weight on myself this year and am pretty much at my heaviest. We can do it!

Also mad respect for anyone who can do Slimfast: I'm on Slimming World as I need to eat pretty much all day!
