Hi guys :wave_cry: Just wondering if anyone has any tips for sticking to sw? I done it for 6/7 weeks from home + lost almost a stone! But im now totally not motivated! I think going to the classes might help, but I don't feel comfertable in groups so haven't done this yet! I have been working...

Hello fellow weightlossers :wave_cry: This is my 3rd try at using this website, & hopefully 3rd time lucky! Previously I tried to lose weight by eating healthy, it would last a few days & then I would be back to eating takeaways at the weekends! In March 2012 I had finally had enough &...

Thank you <3 xx This is my motivation! it might seem quite sad haha! but i have wanted these for ages!

im not very good at sticking to diets & exercise isn't my best friend! Im just trying to eat healthy & be more active. Taking small steps so that i stick at it before i do anything big! Im cutting down portion sizes, so far today iv had 2 bowls of special k & some fruit + lots of water! my...

okayyy so iv started 2 or 3 of these diaries, it lasts a few days & then i lose interest! 1st of August! new start; new me <3 basically i want to get skinny :D i always look at how amazing other people have done, & think they can do it but i cant! but emm WHY NOT ME? :confused: fed up with...

This is my Bichon Frise puppy Bella! She's 9months old & such a character! She loves barking back when you tell her something & also loves chasing my two cats! :D

So im fed up with all the usual places i shop, very, dorothy perkins etc. & I can't seem to find a nice maxi dress anywhere!! Does anyone have any good sites/shops that i could have a look at? :D

this sounds so fun! theres a class near me tomorrow, i might just go along! i thought it was only me that felt nervous about going & being the only over-weight one! but everyone sounds like they feel the same! :D

yehh i have thought about zumba! might give it a go. i just have no confidence to actually enjoy it & think everyone will be watching me; even wen they'r probably to busy to even notice!

Ok so ever since i can remember i have hated exercise! In primary school i would do everything to get out of PE, i couldnt stand the thought of everyone watching me, or being all warm & sweaty! Im now 19 & nothings changed. I have NEVER been to the gym, i have this image in my head that i would...

ok so i'v never been very good at sticking to something; or updating things (apart from facebook!) i started using the site almost a year ago, & loved how much everyone helps eachother & the before + after pictures. it all looked so easy! but its really not! my neighbour has done the cambridge...

Hi everyone :wave_cry: im back at square one again! Started with such good intentions before (see here) !! I got caught up in so many other things, interviews, holidays etc! But now im determained it will be 3rd time lucky! It has to go :mad: After seeing how good my neighbour got on doing the...

Thanks Pink. I totally agree! :D

Also these are my targets, 28/02 - 16st 04/04 - 15st 09/05 - 14st 12/06 - 13st 11/07 - Size 16 18/07 - 12st 22/08 - 11st 26/09 - 10st 31/10 - Size 14 05/12 9st Not sure how realistic these are! Wanting to lose a stone in 5 weeks? Thats 2lb & a bit a week! Hopefully I can lose roughly 7st...

That's exactly what I have done Rainbow! Replacing food with better options & watching what I eat. I have tried to "diet" before, but because i know i can't have a biscuit or packet of crisps, i crave them more! I weighed myself after work yesterday, but before dinner. Probably not the best...

I notice everyone has "targets" at the bottom of their signatures. I thought if i made my own targets then this would give me some motivation! However im not sure what realistic targets should be? By Monday I want to be 16 Stone, or less. I have made what i think should be targets, losing a...

Thanks Sunshine :D I'v found the forum has helped a lot. I read other people's stories & how they have fallen off the wagon, got back on & are now doing great! Surely if they can do it we can as well!! Good luck with starting today :D I wouldnt call what im doing a "diet" it's more...

Day 2: So yesterday's a bit of a blur, to be honest i think i was half asleep all day? At lunch i really didnt have an appetite, so nibbled at some salad, while my friend dug into a massive burger! Again, lots of water & dinner was chicken & rice! I was so tired lastnight so went to bed very...

Hi Scarlet, I am also from Scotland, where abouts are you from? I totally understand everything you have said! I really like the idea of buying clothing in a smaller size to encourage you to lose weight & fit in it! Think i might need to try this. Are you still doing the diet chef diet? How...

Day 1: So today I felt really down, didn't really have much of an appetite. I had toast for breakfast & some fruit at lunch. I couldnt get rid of the sicky feeling I had, which normally goes away after having something to eat, but looking at food made me feel worse! I also made sure i had plenty...

Since starting this thread on 16th September, I managed quiet well at eating healthy. However, round about December I totally fell off the healthy eating track, & now im back to square one :( I havent used the forum for a number of months, but recently I was told by a "close family member"...

having a down day today! feel like total cr*p! as for healthy eating? i'v went from eating healthy to not wanting to eat at all & not feeling hungry :( constant mood swings don't help either; but im puting this down to pcos & stress at work! feel totally yuck :sign0137:

think i'll go with 16st 6lb :D that's 3lb in a week :bliss:

meeeee :D i can't drive; & don't plan on doing my test; im quite happy using buses etc. but my parter drives. we go to track days & cruises etc :character00182: as for a fave car? emm it changes all the time!! audi a3 & q7 rangerover overfinch volkswagen scirocco & thats just this week haha...

:lost: just a wee quick question weighed myself at the weekend - 16st 8lb weighed myself lastnight - 16st 5lb weighed myself this morning (as i couldnt believe lastnight!) 16st 7lb not sure what would be more accurate? or the best way to tell lol. :sign0163:

so lastnight i started doing extra in work, cleaning the office; took an hour & felt like great exercise! (& im gettin paid for it) :D i didn't really feel that great again lastnight so only had soup for dinner. i couldn't avoid the scales when i walked past them, i was shocked to see they...

thanks for the support guys :thankyou: wasn't feeling to good at the weekend, the thought/smell of food was making me feel sick for some reason :sign0137: so never really ate much! back on track today though :party0049: - yoghurt & grapes for brekfast - 2 x Rivita with low fat cheese &...

thanks guys. you's have reassured me its not all bad!! just another wee question; did you find with pcos you had mood swings/emotional? im finding this a lot recently. not sure if its because of pcos or something else!!

okayyy so far today iv done not bad; yoghurt & grapes for brekfast - 100cal 2 x Rivita with low fat cheese - 100 cal litre of water said no when offered a roll & bacon, & also cakes :D feel better already! just not sure what to do about dinner tonight; normally it would be a takeaway. . . . .!!

i never said i wanted to lose 6 stone in 6months, i said id love to, although i know it will be a hard push, so im doin it in small steps, & losing 20lb for crimbo is my first! as for lazy, although i was shattered lastnight i managed to get the wii out for 90mins :D

thanks Ria! I read your diary, omg how did u manage to stay on track? the site's showed me anyone can do it!! x

thanks alex! you'v really helped. i'd love to lose 6 stone in 6 months!! I think i'l try to eat under 1,000 calories each day. using the site should also help as everyone's been really supportive already! dreading the weekend though; but things NEED to change :-) x

thanks lexi! & from glasgow like me!!

I was told not to diet, it had to be a lifestyle change, that would last forever & not just a few months. Moneys tight so im trying to avoid joining clubs & doing diets that mean i have to buy specific foods/brands. Im looking to lose 6 stone & drop from a size 18/20 to a 12, although...

I Love this idea! Due to working far from home and having to travel for at least and hour & half every morning & night, I find it hard to fit in exercise! I have worked out roughly 1,000 calories a day, maybe less if there is no exercise/walking that day. Congrats on your weight loss! The...

I am new to this whole diet thing! & after reading a few & how they work; i am TOTALLY confused! there is sooo much information to take in! Im looking to lose 20lb before christmas (14 weeks away) Can anyone recomend a diet that has worked for them, that is easy to follow. Thanks...

thanks for the support! just been to the shops, & now having a healthy lunch (or so i think) of riveta with low fat cheese & grapes. actually the yummyest tasting lunch iv had in a while!

After reading a few peoples diaries I thought it would be a good idea to start my own! Today (16th September) I am roughly 16 stone & a size 18/20. It's 14 weeks until christmas & by then I would like to have lost 20lb. Working in an office i find it hard as people bring in cakes etc for...

thanks guys! its nice to know im not alone! iv been taking fruit to work, & avoiding cakes/sweets etc but i dont seem to be losing weight! only putting it on; which i totally dont understand as my diet has changed to be more healthier & i have cut out junk!

thanks for replying! iv been so worried about this. the dr just confirmed i have it, but never went into detail - i made the mistake of reading online about pcos & all i seem to have read is bad things. one of the main things that stood out was not being able to have children, and at 19 thats...

just a quick question that has had me really worried recently. does pcos mean you really can't have a family (without ivf etc)?

Hi guys. Decided today I really need to do something about my weight. Im 19, roughly 15 stone & 5foot 4, overweight for my age! Im a size 18, pushin 20; which i dont feel is right for my age! Im jealous that other girls my age can wear all the nice clothes that are in all the shops...
