Hi girls, I've not been on here for a few weeks, holidays and general busy-ness! Just a quick update now, I've lost another 6lb since my last log in, but that is weighing today so will update again Monday and then start regular Monday weigh-ins again from then. I've had a quick read and looks...

Well done Nic! I've not done too bad this week, lost 3lbs, quite surprised actually as I've had a funeral, a girls night in with pizza and chocolate fountain, and a friends birthday bbq this week. God knows how I've lost 3 lbs but I'm just gonna be thankful that I have :D. So I'm now half a...

Wow! 5lbs, that's really great. Looks like we're both off to a flying start. :happy036: I love your goals, I've got so many clothes in my wardrobe that I've never fitted into so that's going to be great when I finally do. Ever the optimist I buy something I like in a size too small and never...

Hi Colette, welcome to the forum. I've been here for just over a week now and it's really helped with my motivation. I lost 4lb in my first week :) so am suitably pleased with myself and I've just committed to posting my weight loss every monday on another thread here so I'm hoping that will...

Thanks Lynsey, really hope I can keep it up. It's good motivation to keep going after having a good first week, hope you're doing ok too. :)

Hi, I'd like to join in too please. I think it will really help with my motivation. I weigh in on a Monday anyway, so having somewhere to report to might make me keep away from those nibbles over the weekend.

First WI this morning, 4lb off, woo-hoo me! Really quite pleased with myself. Looks like calorie counting works for me. Welcome Maria and Special K, hope you reach your goals. The support on here is really good, so stick around. Lynsey, I really don't like the sound of those side effects, looks...

First week is over and I've lost 4lbs! Really pleased that it's worked, was a bit sceptical cos even though I'm counting calories I still seemed to be eating quite a lot of food! It's done the job though. Goal for this week is to up the exercise! xx

Wow Laurie, congrats on the 6 you've lost. I've been getting on ok thanks. Have been sticking to 1500 calories a day and drinking gallons of water. Wish I could exercise more but finding it hard with the kids home from school. The weather has been pants so my plans of walking to the park every...

Hi Lynsey, Yeah I do feel better but peeing for england also! lol! Your calorie intake is good though so don't get disheartened from what the scales say. Just go by your doctors ones. I find that I jump on the scales once, am pleased with the result so then i jump on them again to make sure and...

Oooh I'm a chocolate addict too. Nothing satisfies my craving though so it's easier for me to go cold turkey! I start off with the chocolate mousse then think, nope that wasn't good enough and go searching for the real thing, lol. I find if I cut it out completely then I don't miss it as much...

Hi Lynsey, I've been doing pretty well all week. Not done as much exercise as I would have liked with the kids being home, and the weather hasn't been great so haven't got out much either. I would have liked a few days at the park but it's just been rain rain rain all week. The food side of...

Thanks Debzi and Nic, really good to know that it is possible. I intend to do lots of walking too, and running around after my little ones. I'm using the summer holidays to get a bit more active and then once the kids are back at school and nursery I'll be able to get into some more structured...

I know how you feel RainbowRose. I got down to around 12 stone after having my first baby and then it all went back on with the 2nd, he's 3 now and I'm still struggling to kick start this weight loss. I'm determined to do it this time. I've been reading around this website and it has given me...

Hi everyone, thanks for all your messages. It's really good to hear that you've done so well, Nic and Debzi, have you done this with calorie counting alone? Big Trev and Auburn, looks like we're in similar situations, lets try and keep in touch and encourage each other, I know I need all the...

Hi, thanks for all you're encouragement, especially 'soon to be yummy mummy', looks like we're in a very similar situation so should definitely keep in touch. Do you think the Xenical works? Not sure if its for me or not, maybe I'll see how I get on doing it alone and see my GP if I feel like...

Hi, I'm new here and I'm looking for a buddy with around 6 to 8 stone to lose to keep each other motivated. I've tried all the other diets but really want to adopt a healthy way of eating for life. I'm sticking to around 1500 calories a day (will reduce this over time) and trying to exercise as...

Hi girls, just thought I'd introduce myself. My name is Liz and I'm a mum of two gorgeous children, a girl aged 7 and a boy of 3. I've got 110lbs to lose and I really want it all away by the time I'm 30, I have approximately 15 months to get it all off and I really want to do it so I'm gonna...
