    That tight pencil skirt I had to struggle to get into and struggle to button and zip? Well I just have to step into it and pull it up now. It's baggy in the waist. I can sit down in it with no worry about splitting the seams! Yay me!

    Hi all my weigh inn is a Saturday

    Awesome! I re-joined SW in January and my weigh-day is Saturday, too. I lost 1.5 st but gained 3 last week. I blame my weakness on Easter and my son's birthday cake. I am loathe to step on the scales tomorrow as this week was a holiday. Part of me doesn't want to face the scales. But it's a...

    Why do I feel like it will never happen?

    Hi all. I am feeling a little less than hopeful at the moment. About a year ago, I lost track of everything I had worked for. I lost the plot even more when I realised my mother-in-law and her other daughter-in-law were going to SW and didn't think to ask me if I could join them. My MIL is ok...
