    BMI Information:
    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!

    It might seem like a long way off now, but once you start you'll be surprised at just how quickly it moves

    Won't be long now

    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.

    Started LL Feb 2008 21.5 stone
    Reached goal Dec 2008 10 stone
    Maintained for 2 Years and 8 months now
    Woooo Hooo !!!!!!!!!!!!

    Have you chatted to a counsellor about your concerns?

    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!!!!!!

    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.

    Loving the thought of that picture - and also the thought of the cheering that will happen when you not only fasten them up but discover they are too big

    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!
