Some people like or need the support of a group; I like to do my own thing as whenever I go for regular classes, as soon as I stop losing weight I come home and eat badly then eventually give up. I have to say you've lost loads of weight so far and you have done brilliantly, thus proving you...

Try not to worry too much about the scales/BP measurements - I always used to have high BP at the docs because every time I saw that BP cuff my breathing rate increased (I was nervous about going to the doctors). Now when I have my BP measured I try to breathe slowly and say in my head "low...

Yummy - just made one medium spud worth of these - lovely, just used sea salt, my hubby sharing them so don't feel too naughty about eating them - better than reaching for something really dangerous

I put them in things like a quorn or vegetable curry. I am a bit weird with foods but I quite like them as they are - rinsed and drained in a pot and nibble on them like you would peanuts! Yuck I hear you say.

I can seriously sympathise - I could probably drink most days given half the chance. At the weekends I do like a few glasses of wine or more often than not start with a cocktail or G&T then open a bottle or two of red wine to share with my hubby. This past week I made a pact with myself not to...

hi all Please tell me how much a WW meeting is? Thanks Ray

well done

I did this 2.5 yrs ago, I went for a few sessions as it was £50 an hour - it was my second time of trying it - the first time I wasn't very motivated (back in the late 1990's). So I was really motivated the last time I tried - I dropped from 17 st 4lbs to 14st 2lbs - At first it was quite fast...

Hi Sorry to ask another question - how much is a weekly meeting at WW? thanks guys R x

Hi Happyhippo I signed up ages ago to a weekly voucher site: Voucher Codes - Exclusive Discount Codes and Discount Vouchers I get sent an email once a week telling me about offers - eg, discounts at online shops - high street shops and restaurants (probably wise to stay away from the...

Thanks for the information. Wow Purple Rain - you've had an amazing weight loss - you must be so pleased with your results - really consistent losses. All on WW I am guessing. May have to try it out and see how it goes - I have a voucher for free joining and first class free so maybe I should...

Hi Have been to slimming world (SW) a few times but did weight watchers (ww) back in the early 1990's. My local SW is a bit grim and the consultant isn't great but I was thinking about retrying WW once again. Can anyone tell me what to expect these days on joining - I ask coz back in the old...

I STS - bit bored now - second week of STS, nice to hear other's are still losing - well done. R x

Hi Everyone STS this week - only thing I can say is it's better than putting any on. Hopefully it will show next week! Good luck to everyone else.

Hi Everyone Hooray - I've lost 4lbs this week, I am really pleased. Have stopped RC and back on SW, so think it must suit me better at present. Good luck to all fellow Monday Weighers. R x

Well done everyone - great loss Stormwind. R x

Hi All I'm just posting to say I've had my first weekly WI on RC - not very happy as lost nothing! I've stuck to the diet, done an hour's exercise every day. What is most fustrating is that I had a sneaky mid week WI and had lost 2lb so thought I was bound to lose at least 3 this first week...

Hi Just had my first WI on RC........ STS - can you believe it? I am pretty disappointed - especially as a mid week sneaky WI was a loss of 2lb! Exercised an hour every day and no alcohol or other "naughty" things. Oh well, here's hoping for better next week. Hope you all did better than...

Hi All Can I join you too please? I'm kinda restarting really - this Monday (6th Sept) - hoping I won't be naughty on the weekend, aiming for a good loss this next weigh in. I weigh unofficially most days- just can't help it - must stop it though! Good luck to you all over the weekend and...

Hi there Welcome - I'm a newbie too, so far I'm doing OK (only started this week). I've had very few "evil" thoughts but not given into them so far. Two weeks without alcohol will be tough for me but I am determined to lose a lot this first month. Good luck x

Have you got it now and have you used it? If you have had a go and you get your heart rate up then it's working. I had a lateral thigh trainer (LTT) until the chain broke, then I got a reebok stepper which was similar to the LTT, I find that it's not as good as some other forms of exercise...

Looks like you've had a great start for week 1. Good luck

Hi Sarah Thanks for the information and the welcome. Wow, just seen your weight loss - a real inspiration, well done to you.

Hi everyone, Just to say I'm going to try RC - having done it 20yrs ago! Lost my original Hip and Thigh book I'm going to buy Inch Loss. Going to class is not an option for me at present, mainly cost and availability. Until Amazon dispatch the book could you give me a bit of advice on what to...

Hi I've joined today here thinking I'll share the joys and pains of weight loss with everyone here. I've been overweight for almost all my life and it's time I was slim again. I've lost 3 stone in 2 yrs using hypnotherapy. Tried slimming world earlier this summer but found if I hadn't lost at...
