Well I got back on track today and I felt like a kebab which is about 10 points since tonight is take away night but for some reason I thought I'm on a budget meaning points and I need to stick to them, so I tallied up my points for the day and only had 7.25 points left, so I decided I might as...

Yes you've given me ideas Amanda Jayne, the one is too many and 100 not enough is exactly me, also I'm very good at giving in, probably because for years I've indulged my whims and now when it counts I take no heed. I think I need to learn the word 'No', I never tell myself no regarding...

Well I've been on Weight Watchers for 11 weeks and so far out of the last 5 weeks I've put on 2kgs and haven't lost any. My problem is that I'm not counting my points and I'm eating anything I want too. The motivation for weight loss has gone out the window and I'm thinking will I stay this...

I have a problem with alcohol and at the moment since the last 4 weeks I have been drinking it nearly every night, don't know why because I don't get drunk but I do get the munchies because I'm starving in the morning and I bye a pie or eat over my points in weight watchers. I weighed in today...

I'm on WW's just started this week, yes I've fallen off the wagon so many times on this programme, but this time I intend to stay.

6 months is plenty of time to loose weight at 1 kilo a week that is 24 kgs, what you need probably is a buddy who you can email often and you can coach/mentor each other.

I feel for you, I have foot pain when I wear any type of shoes after a few hours so i had problems getting a job because i could only wear sneakers. Frustrating isn't it. I can't run to save myself and my feet won't allow it so I've just started walking, had sore ankles at the front of my feet...

Thanks for your advice, it's highly unlikely I'll go swimming but I can go walking and if I budget carefully I might even be able to go to the gym. Starting weight watchers in 2 weeks time so I'm looking forward to that. Just need to get my goals in order, I like to write everything down and...

I live in Australia, I just found out my hours for my part time job, I'm new there so can fit my walking in after I finish work and after school. The weather has been good, fingers crossed that the temp doesn't go up and I plan not to have takeaway's that we usually have on Thursday nights...

Hi, I joined in early January I think or late December with all the determination of losing weight. But then came summer and with summer came intense heatwaves that I couldn't exercise in. Today I still haven't started a diet or exercise yet as I have just started college and have a part time...

Well I'm normally regular but found after taking the depo I didn't have one until 5 months afterwards instead of 3 months and I bled just a bit but missed my period that I should have had this month.

I would get my foot checked out by someone before you start running again, you could seriously damage your foot without the proper advice. Try going into a shoe shop where they specifically sell shoes for running, the ones that check your foot and how it is placed when you run, I don't know...

Thanks for pointing that out ChristieK, now that you mention it I see what you mean. I've decided now to have 3 meals a day, don't want not loose weight.

I haven't waxed in like 2 years but yes I remember the pain and it's not nice one of my favourite ladies I used to go to would give me a quick massage afterwards which was bliss. The pain we have to go through to look good honestly the men have it soooo easy. Wouldn't it be great if not waxing...

Welcome, I'm a new member too hope to see you around.

Thanks guys it's a comfort to know they will fade, I mean I've never been this big before and I will be buying the bio oil when I can afford to, I've heard it mentioned over the years but never paid much attention to it.

Yes I'm just frightened that I won't loose as much weight as going to the gym but I really have no choice. I plan to cut back on my meals to I know it's unhealthy to not eat 4 times a day but I only eat dinner and sometimes when I'm peckish I will have a sandwhich or 2 later on.

Well I've finally got stretch marks and just wanted to know from those who have achieved goal or nearly there ......... are they that prominent, like I have small ones on the sides of my breasts, under the top of my arms and my thighs. Is it really noticeable when you were a bikini? I've never...

Thank you for the warm welcome. 30 - 40 weeks will be a long way to achieving goal but I'm glad I found this site so that I can persevere, I know I'll be needing some support when the chips are down. :D

Hi All, Well I'm so glad I found this place it is so full of positivity. I've always had weight problems and have flucuated but recently over 2 years I ballooned to a size 20 most of it was comfort eating from depression. I started W/W's in June 08 but lost my job and my motivation went with...

Phew went for a walk down to the shops which took an hour there and back and to have a look around, right now it's summer and it's going to get hot. Now that was just 1km and I think I've had my head in the clouds thinking that walking was going to be easy. Well at least I started. As for the...

Congratulations Patch keep it going.

Yes that can be hard I've been on WW's before and I was a big drinker and when I drunk I would cave and eat take away foods only to try and skip my food or points for the next few days but I found I was on a rollercoaster and unfortunately for me the weight piled back on. Back then trying to...

Write, write, write if you can't stop those cravings. Write about why you are eating and what happened to make you binge on food. Once you have enough in your diary you'll start to see what the actual triggers are. At this point just pat yourself on the back for getting to this point. For me...

Thanks Jemma, I've fallen off diets before because I never stuck to them but walking for me will be just fine, I've asked my mother if she wants to walk with me and she said yes. I seriously would like to ask these people around the corner where I live if I can take their dog for a walk but...

Yes I used to weigh myself constantly but in reality those days don't count you need to look at the bigger goal and that is weight will be lost over time. Can you give the scales away and weigh yourself once a week at the chemist or something? When I lived in another country there were scales...

Have any of you's lost weight just by walking? Financially I can't afford to go to the gym and walking is the only way I can see to loose the weight. If so how much weight were you losing a week? I have walked around the block in the past and it's about 5km and takes over an hour or maybe an...

Okay the best thing I have found is to have a diary where you put all your feelings in it and why you are over eating, I've done this in the past and it helps or helped me to see the triggers of why. Usually something set me off like seeing a gorgeous female on tv and relating that to my size...
