I see we've both got the same total amount of weight to lose. Despite it saying my start date was 15th Aug, It was more like 3 weeks ago that I got started properly. I've done RC in the past and found the mixture of diet, exercise and socialising very successful - hope you enjoy it.

Good luck! The more you can fit exercise in the better (I just walk the dog), as you will soon start to feel good and then you will want to keep going. As for DVDs, I find it preferable to go to a class, as it's more fun, so can't really recommend any I'm afraid. I'm sure you could be a...

Yep, I'm sure you're right Sarah. There will come a point when I have to start doing this. At the moment though, I'm pretty good at stopping eating when I start to feel full, because I can't bear that 'stuffed' feeling any more. Weigh in this morning, and 3 more pounds lost. I'm aiming to...

Hope it gets in so we can all read your story.

I weighed in on Wednesday (but only found time to get on here now), and I'm pleased to say I've lost 6lbs this week. I must start a proper log in the diary section. Now I'm back into it, I must say I find the RC method very easy (I'm not too strict about counting the calories, I just apply...

OK, I'm very sorry I didn't get straight back here after my holiday, I've been so busy at work & home that I kept forgetting. Well, unsurprisingly I didn't lose anything while I was away, but I have lost 4lb since. I've used this as a new starting point for my ticker as it's a nice round...

Wouldn't you always feel you'd missed an opportunity if you didn't? I say, go for it - and just think of how many others you may inspire!

Hi there, I'm just starting too. I also intend to keep an eye on what I eat and take more exercise (finding time is hard). Hope you get off to a good start.

Well done John - that's amazing in such a short space of time. Are you exercising as well?

Well done Red Rose. I know from past experience that after a few days it becomes second nature and you want to keep going. Keep your eye on your goal.

Hi MT I've got 7 stone to lose to get me back to what I was before I ever had children, but I'm just concentrating on losing 5 stone at the moment. I'm basically calorie counting (using Rosemary Conley's low-fat principles), drinking more water, and intend to up my exercise once the kids are...

Thank you for your welcomes. I know that the RC diet combined with exercise works well, because it has for me in the past. What I need to keep going is my motivation to do it! I've been using up the contents of my fridge these last couple of days. Apart from the homemade apple & sultana...

If I get through the next 24 hours I think I will. I've found mommyb's at last, and agree it would be useful for me to do too. I'm looking forward to the feedback!

Funny how I suddenly fancy strawberries ...! Will have to get some tomorrow. I'm all for encouraging each other teeny, I don't really have anyone to talk to about my plans, which is why I'm so pleased to have found this site (just wish I'd found it when I really needed it 8 months ago, but...

Hi there, I've just joined, and the forum seems really friendly. Is there anyone to support me in losing weight the RC way? I can't get to meetings thanks to job and kids, but I have been in the past, and really enjoyed them. I subscribe to the magasine and use the recipe books. My approach to...

Well , I would be happy if I lost 5 stone. I would need to lose 7st to take me to my pre-children weight, but as that was over 15 years ago, I don't think there is much chance! I've set my ticker up, and think it may be a good idea to log weekly weight change in my signature. I'll try to visit...

Do you know Jim, I caught sight of my reflection today (I usually try hard to avoid it & certainly never have a photo taken), and thought that as I've been overweight for so long, I will always look like a shapeless lump. Seeing your pics, however, I realise that I could become a completely...

Hi everyone, I found this forum completely by accident, and I'm so glad I did. I managed to lose 2.5 stone last year just by eating sensibly, drinking water and walking the dog lots (she was well happy with this!), but I let it slip, put a fair bit back on, and have been feeling more than a...
