I have a target of losing 70 pounds which would take me to 140. It seems daunting at the moment but I am determined to give it a try!
I just set up a sliding scale for my signature... the right hand side seems a long way off!

Good luck ladies,
I am sure starting LL will be a positive move for you. Nice to see that nobody has decided over Christmas not to go for it.
When I look back to this time last year I have a new life and attitude towards it now.
LL has turned my life around completely. i can't believe I am able to say that 2 days after Christmas, but it's true.
Good luck everyone for 2009.

hi guys
im starting my ll in january as well. im a bit scared about the side effects, dont really want to lose my hair os im a bit hasitating to be honest
ol![]()
hi and welcome zandilemhlonitshwa,
i dont think everyone loose their hair and if you do its not permanant. the side effects can be harsh but i think they are totally worth it.
well im STILL waiting to hear my start date, there was talk that i would be the wednesday after new year but nothing set in stone!!! im going to ring on monday and try and get it sorted.
ive had a ok xmas, although food did feature quite heavily, im going to be starting LL a good half a stone heavier than i planned to i think!!!!!!! ive not got anything for xmas, just money which ive put away, then when i get to target i gonna go and have a huge shopping spree, hopefully of all size 12 clothes!!!!!!

Well I've bought my scrap book for my LL journey, and bought the pair of jeans I've been looking at for a while in the sale as my dream size pair!
Getting in the mood for it!
Start of Foundation 8/1/2009: 13 stone 9lb
End of Foundation 24/4/2009: 9 stone 5.5lb
Current weight: 21/01/2011: 9 stone 6lb (and 12 weeks pregnant!!)
Wow, sounds like we're all getting ready for the start line!
Food has featured heavily over my Christmas too, although I though I'd try and cut back, it's almost like the last supper each day for me, so really can't wait for 5 Jan to arrive.
I do have some CD packs and am tempted to use them for a week before I start LL, but worried that I might mess things up, so maybe better to wait to my start date.
Emveg - bet it won't take too long and your jeans will be too big for you lol

Well... just as a little experiment I just "put the jeans on" to see where I am now, thinking it would make the moment I fit into them somehow comparable.
The reached my knees!!
I think that may make the moment in 4 or so months very sweet indeed.
And yes, that picture is going in my scrapbook.

that made me laugh emveg!
I think I might do the same - i've got some size 12s from years ago somewhere - will be amazing if/when i can get them on!

Hi all!
Not long to go now....ironically several of my presents were food related, but they'll keep, I haven't been behaving well, but not nearly as badly as I usually do over Christmas.
Can't wait until the 5th though. Or I suppose the 6th because the LL meeting is 8pm on the Monday and I guess we eat normally during that day?
Westiegirl - there was one girl at my info meeting who lived nearer Wrexham but hadn't known there was an LLC there, so I doubt she'll come back as a confirmation - I really hope we're in the same group, but either way you'll start very soon!
