    Hi Just got some news and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I got some routine blood tests done last week because I generally haven't been feeling well (very tired) andjust wanted to get checked. Cholesterol, blood sugar etc. Anyway, doc rang me tonight and told me I'd slightly elevated...

    Oisin, Oli, That's AMAZING. You're doing so well. I'm absolutely thrilled for both of you. Long may it continue. Well, I'm another 1.5 lbs down (I'll fix the ticker later on after work). I'm delighted too obviously. It is slowly but surely coming off and I don't feel that I've changed that...

    Hi Well it looks like I missed out on a good natter - haven't seen one born every minute but if my DH catches me watching anymore baby/birthing programs , I think he might strangle me :) I'd love to have a silent birth (just like Katie Holmes ?). My first labour, I was so so silly and...

    Hi abz, I NEVER knew that. Wow, maybe that explains why I have progressively got more hormonal as my weight has blossomed. Interesting.... Thanks Oli and Abz for the support but I've hit a wall. I can't believe I did this tonight but I actually ate a quarter box of pringles. I'm feeling...

    Hi, Yep, if things fall into place, I'll start July/ August this year. So far, I've never had a problem getting pregnant as I was pregnant on my first within the first month of trying and my second within three months. Mind you, I had been off the pill for a number of years and was on a...

    Hey Oli/ Elaine, Sounds like it is a day of temptations for everyone. Well done on avoiding the cheese- don't know if I could be that strong and Elaine well, Oli is right in that you know you'll feel much better if you've lost a few stone before you ttc. These thoughts might be related to the...

    Wow, Oli- congrats that is absolutley brilliant weight loss. I am SOOOOO jealous (but delighted for you too) :) SO I checked my BMI it's 40.1 - crikey, I'm just morbidly obese. That is so scary. Definitely gave me a jolt to get back on track. Well, I told you last week I had abad weekend...

    AH, mummy of three girls, don't feel like that. Like you, I've been overweight in all my pregnancies and while I had some problems, I had nothing that no other mother had (fat or thin). You say nearly the same thing yourself anyway in your post - you have had healthy pregnancies. Being...

    Hi Kissed a Kat , Yep, I'm up for a Monday weigh in. I've done it each Monday morning before breakfast, showers etc so that works out perfectly. Not sure if I'll see a loss this week though. I'm falling back into the bad habit of eating in the late evening again. However, still haven't...

    Loosing weight before ttc

    Hi, I'm in the same boat as you. I have two beautiful kids and one of the reasons I want to lose weight is to be healthy when I ttc for no. 3. My bro has diabetes and I have been heavy all my life (though never this heavy) and I don't want my own history or my family history to affect another...

    Hi Karen, You ARE doing really well. Why mess it up now? If you really have a craving to eat, then why not pick something really good e.g. if you like crunchy, crispy things, then how about carrot batons and some extra light garlic mayonnaise? Or if you have a sweet tooth, then go mad with a...

    For women, is it harder to diet once a month?

    Thanks for the replies. Just peachy, I've found since I had my kids that hormones have been RAGING at that time and this is one output of that along with the emotional ups and downs and all the physical pain etc. I agree it definitely is an issue when doing a weigh in and I'd forgotten that...

    For women, is it harder to diet once a month?

    Hi In the past when I've dieted, I've found it difficult to stick to it during my period. I'm in week 3 now and again I'm finding it hard. I'm eating stupidly then feeling guilty and then the guilt is making me feel like I can't do this and want to give up. Does anyone else have this...

    Hi It's probably a silly question but why do you need the chocolate? Is it habit? or is it that something happened? or is it that you really really need it. I'm only new and am DEFINITELY not the best for advice but I gave up chocolate cold turkey a weeka go and have had cravings. So far, I've...

    Hi from Determind :)

    Hi I've never been on a weight loss forum before and I'm hoping that you all can keep me "determind" when the days get hard. My ticker says my weight and I've put an interim goal in for myself to lose 4.5 stone. Challenging enough I feel. I've lost over four stone before on Weight...
