    Dearest darling husband. BOG OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE! I'm not stupid, I know slimming world Is a business that wants to make money, every business does. I am not spending a massive amount of money on classes every week, unlike your wine purchases, my class costs less than £5 per week...

    My other half is a complete pain in the ass. I was just treated to a 10min rant about how SW is only after my money, the group/company doesn't care if I lose weight and all I need to do is listen to him, drop eating so much and get off my fat arse. I'm so bloody mad. Do I moan about the amount...

    Could My Friend Attend Class?

    That totally makes sense and my friend was also told this by her nutritionalist but unfortunately she couldn't stomach the rich diet and it made her vomit everytime she ate something high in fat it ended up making things worse. Her thinking is that if she had to weigh every week at class she...

    That's not too bad a gain Hannah and with the exercise you will soon get rid of it. Class starts at 7.30 and its a 5-10min drive. Only 3 miles so walkable on nice nights if Ewan puts cj to bed. Just need to phone later to make sure its on as its a brand new group, only started last week. Have...

    Could My Friend Attend Class?

    Thanks, not what she wants to hear but saves her a wasted trip to class. She does see a nutrionalist but only every 6 months and was hoping that attending a class to eventually maintain her weight would help and encourage her in the way it does all of us struggling to lose. Maybe she can try it...

    Could My Friend Attend Class?

    Ok the situation is a bit different to most people wanting to join class. My friend is most definitely not overweight. If anything she is underweight. She was extremely ill last year and had a feeding tube for quite a few months as she was unable to eat at all. The tube has been out for a year...

    Thank-you. Have no idea why I'm so nervous. I have spent my while adult life walking into church halls full of strangers, sitting down amongst them and starting a conversation. So if everything starts from weigh in on Thursday does that mean I can eat whatever I want til then?? (only kidding)...

    Excuse my french but bugger bugger bugger. Weighed myself yesterday and STS. Have now realised that when I go to join the class I will be weighing in the evening after dinner when I usually weigh in the morning as soon as I get out of bed while wearing just a big t-shirt. Im gonna have a massive...

    WOW. You look amazing! That is a gorgeous dress & you look beautiful. I didn't expect support from him as I know how he feels about slimming clubs. He thinks all I have to do is eat less & exercise more. If only it was that easy

    Thank you, i knew you would understand. When I said to OH that I was going to join he went mad. Waste of money, only you can do something about it, give me the money and I will weigh you, going to a club will not help you lose weight........ the list is endless. I need him to look after CJ for...

    Am finally biting the bullet and going to join a class. A new class is starting about 10 min drive from me on a Thursday night at 7.30. Mum gave me a leaflet today and for once the class is on at a time I can manage. I feel really nervous about this but as you both know I have really struggled...

    Well done on starting your weight loss journey and loads of luck. Taking it small steps at a time is a great idea, makes the idea of it so much more manageable I think. Look forward to following your progress

    I like your consultant! Yes I still weigh in on a Saturday. Mid afternoons are difficult. I want choc and biscuits as a bit of a sugar boost. Am just so tired at the moment. Off work next week which is great but makes this week feel even longer. Problem with dress is a 12 would be too tight...

    I am going to buy one if those daytime/nightime clocks that light up with a sun at the time you set the alarm for. Unfortunately we live in a flat so no downstairs for me to hide.

    Dear son. I love you more than life but not more than sleep. Please stay in your own bed tonight and sleep ALL night.
