Oh my gosh ... I started this thread and I have hardly replied ... sorry ladies ... and such a big well done on the fabulous weight losses ♥ I weighed in tonight and I have lost 2lbs. My weight loss is only 6lbs at the moment, maybe 6 1/2lbs. The numbers aren't matching up and my leader is...

Hey ladies. I had my little baby boy in October 2010 and I am so sure that I have a 5 week old little baba in my tummy, who should be due in october 2011 :family2:

Urgh! This week has gone to pot!! :( I haven't been tracking, or exercising. Since yesterday, I have been feeling really groggy and disorientated and my eating healthy just hasn't happened. I have been eating rubbish and snacking. :sigh: I am dreading weigh in tomorrow night, although...

Hey Hannah ... how are you getting on ? My week is rubbish! Thursday was great ... was 10 points under ... then friday had a generally good day, saturday and sunday also. Though I didn't point my 3 curries I had for tea friday to sunday :eek: Then since yesterday, I am feeling so groggy...

Oh wow! That is a busy weekend and a half!! What a pain that you are still in the dilemma of which venue to choose. Looking at a few others sounds like a good plan. You will either find one that you fall in love with, or you will realize which venue out of the two that you really! really...

Bethwyn Lavender ... that is an unusual but beautiful name :) If you want to give SW a try then that is definitely something that you should do. You need to do what works for you best as this is how you will manage to get a better weight loss. Don't worry, I completely understand :) I didn't...

No worries about the typo ... it made me giggle :) It sounds a bit rubbish the situation you are in. I'm sorry that the health team are being so unsupportive. I have just had a little idea though. Do you think that maybe you could go to the SW meetings, but agree with the leader not to get...

Hey and welcome to the forums :) my baby boy is 4 months old now so your intro stood out to me x Irene is right. With weight watchers, you can join once you have your 6 week check and everything is fine :) as a nursing mummy, you are allowed extra points too x Each to their own though and I...

I was talking to Tom about the wedding yesterday and he got to a point where he just switched off and then changed the subject. I told him that it is mainly going to be all I talk about now and he had better get used to it haha :)

Right! Today is a brand new day and I am going to ignore this groggy feeling that I have - though it's because as a kind of new mum, I am realizing that I don't get weekends anymore!! :wave_cry: Bye bye weekends ... Hey, on the bright side, it might just help me to not cave in so much on a...

:welcome2: Have you set your self a goal for when you would like to loose 10lbs by? I find that can be a good motivation :) As you have seen, this is a really good forum, full of support and advice, and lots of "kicks up the bums".

Hey there and welcome to the forums :) Please make sure you don't push yourself so much that you cause more injury :) I find that this is a really good forum for advice and support. I hope that SW works for you, I know it works for a lot of people :) I wish you lots of luck with reaching...

♥ Pictures ♥ ♥ So yesterday, I started buying little bits for the wedding ♥

♥ I hope that my eating goes well today. I know that I am going to be tired as I didn't get to sleep until 12 am, Zach woke at 3.30 am till 4 am, I didn't get to sleep until 4.30 am as I had woken up, and then Zach was awake and ready to start the day at 6 am ... I have been good so far and not...

♥ Checklist ♥ ♥ Book a wedding venue ♥ Book a date ♥ Pay deposit ♥ Book a Chester registrar ♥ Pay deposit ♥ Get Tom's divorce papers (complicated!) ♥ Take papers down to Flintshire county council after May 12th ♥ Choose transport ♥ Book transport ♥ Plan invitations ♥ Make...

You may find that you have fun decorating the venue - although at the same time, the thought of not having to decorate a venue that muck also sounds kinda good. I can't wait to start sorting my decorations out - though It all seems so daunting!! But, have the "important" things to sort and...

Such a good idea for your fa mily having a bank holiday wedding. :-) I will reply more later as I am on my phone and my tea is ready x

Hey ladies ♥ I am using this diary as a way of keeping an online track of where I am up to with all this exciting wedding planning ♥ Tom and I are getting married on Saturday 12th May, 2012. Our venue is The Grosvenor in Pulford, where we are having the whole day there. Ceremony, wedding...

I hope you are feeling better soon hun. It sounds like it with all the exercise you are getting in :D I only ever use my 49 PP's if I go out for a meal ... other wise, they don't get used. It is possible to loose 3lb or more in a week. I have done a few times down to good eating and lots of...

♥ I am getting so excited now - I am waiting for the registrar to phone me back so that I can try and book *her* for our wedding :) I also rang the venue to find out what times they thought were best for the service, and 2pm is best for them, though they can also do 12pm and 4pm. Think we are...

I am having a chill out morning :) Although - I have been on the phone for the last hour sorting out online backing, phone bills, trying to book a registrar for my wedding and phoning the venue ... so not really a chill out morning hehe x Though Zach has slept like, all morning as he is getting...

Wow - making your own wedding cake - that is pretty cool :) We have got a wedding planner (she comes with the venue lol) but I'm not quite sure on what she does / how much she does. I am greatful to have one, although I also have a sister-in-law-to-be who is doing events management in Uni ...

Uh I might just pinch that idea if you don't mind :) 2 stone is an achievable goal. I was planning on starting to look at dresses in April, so can I loose 2 stone by april?? We will find out :) My plans haven't really started, although we do have our venue booked. We are having the whole day in...

Bindi - 5 lbs is an excellent start - well done :) Are you both having a good day points and exercise wise ?? I haven't done any exercise today as my baby boy is poorly after having his jabs. I have eaten really well - I haven't snacked and I have made sure I ate fruit after my meals :)

Hey, I am Nicky - I am determined to be a yummy mummy and am doing everything I possibly can to make it happen :party0011: This is my food diary. I do track in my tracker - but want to give this a go :) So here goes.

Hey ladies. I am getting married in May, 2012 - I am wondering if any one else is?

Well done for reaching you 5% :) I can understand why you don't stay for the meeting - when I was working full time, all I wanted to do was get weighed and go - but my mum was my lift and helps out there. I don't feel like I am dieting also. If anything, I feel like it is teaching me about...

I had to giggle then because when i quickly read your post, I thought you had put you have half heartedly been farting :D Lol - sorry :) Well done on the great weight loss. I hope that it continues to go well for you. MiniMins is a brilliant place for support.

:welcome2: ♥ Hey hunny. This forum is a great place for support and I hope you find it helpful ♥ Bring on that weight loss this week hey :) ♥

♥ Anything is possible if you put your mind to it ♥ And it sounds like you have ♥ Come on girlll!!! ♥

♥ Nice one - that is an awesome weight loss for the first week ♥ Keep it up hun ♥

Good morning ladies. This is the start of my weight loss diary, where I think I will be posting weekly - after my weigh in on a wednesday evening. :) So, a little about me. I am 26 years old, engaged to Tom - I get to be a beautiful bride on Saturday 19th May, 2010 :D - and Mummy to my...

Good morning ladies. :D I am wondering who else gets weighed on a Wednesday? And if so, how did you do this week? Do you attend meetings or weigh in at home? I attend a group in Mynnydd Isa, and my leader, Helen, is amazing! I bought myself the magazine last night (haven't read it yet!)...

Well done :) It's an amazing feeling isn't it :)

OMG!! That is fantastic - to go from a size 18 to a size 14 :party0011: What an achievement ... and an inspiration :) I have never thought about not weighing myself. I do love finding out that I have dropped down a clothes size. Wellll doonnnnneeee :) Am clicking on thank you so say...

Well done on kicking the habbit :) :welcome2: to the forum. I find that it is brilliant, I hope that you find it supportive and helpful :)

I can't really say that I am a binge eater, but I can definitely binge out from time to time. What tends to keep me going is I put a little reward system in place for myself. I get weighed on a wednesday evening. After that weigh in for the evening, I WILL!! eat so much chocolate and crisps -...

:welcome2: Hey hun, welcome to the forum. I find that this is a brilliant forum and I hope that you find it really helpful. Well done on getting to day 4 :)

:welcome2: First of all, a big well done on quitting smoking ... do you feel better for it?? I have heard that food can become a factor when quitting the habit (not a smoker myself). This is a really good forum and every one is really nice and supportive :) You have come to the right place...

1099 :)

The one thing that I refuse to do is weigh myself at home - actually, maybe I should rephrase that - I let myself weigh when I go on the Wii Fit Plus, but I remind myself that it is the wednesday night weigh in which is the one that I should be bothered about!!

Aww that is brilliant :) Well done you. Keep it up and have another good weight loss next week :)

I weigh in on a Wednesday x x

:welcome2: You have come to the right place for help and support. I think there may be some who are still doing the Discover plan. I am doing WW ProPoints but I also did the Discover plan pre-pregnancy and I really enjoyed that plan. I think that if that is what you feel comfortable doing...

I like the way that they now work out the exercise points ... the more weight you have to loose, the easier it is to gain exercise points and then as you loose weight, you have to work harder to try and earn similar amounts of points. That is the case for me anyways and I like it :)

Okay so I reached 20 but don't have the avatar option and i'm not able to join a private group that requires 20 ... should i wait rather than be inpatient lol sorry x

Okay, I just found it under my name on the left and my last post took me to 20 :)

is there a way to say how many posts you are on or do you get a notification when you reach a certain number??

I always work out my EP's as I also like to see them build up. If I do use them, I use no more than half so that I still get the benefit :)

Oh man well I didn't see the other 11 pages!! I must be tired ... sorry x

:superwoman: Being the super mum that I am :) I am going to try and do 5 hours. I know it isn't a lot, but with a 4 month old, swimming and lots of walking most days, I think that I may be able to do it. Miss Mango: 15 hours - 0 done Julie2011: 20 hours - 0 done Judimac : 15hours - 0 done...

Track! Track! Track!

You're very welcome :) It sounds ideal if you don't need to attend meetings, and can see why it would work out cheaper for you! I am currently paying £6 a week to attend a WW weigh in and meeting :doh:

I love making cards, I find it so relaxing and enjoyable, although since having Zach, I haven't really done any. Plus I am focusing on jewellery making as I am hoping to make an income through it so I don't have to return to work in June x

I'm not quite sure how the diet plan you are following works (as I have never heard of it :)) ... I just wanted to say congratulations on the arrival of your little one, I had my little boy in October ;)

Hey :) I am also following WW PP and I found it difficult to get used to as I was so used to the old plan, but this new plan I find does work really well and the portion sizes in the books mean that I don't need to weigh things out as much :) It is working really well for me and I think it is...

Wow, that is a fantastic weight loss :) Be proud!! I hope that your diet continues to work well for you and that it may inspire others to try it :)

I haven't heard about that weight loss program but I think I will be finding out more about it through this forum :) I hope that you find it helps and that you enjoy it x

I hope that SW works well for you hun, and I hope that you enjoy it too :)

Haha, I just seen the "not food related" bit :) Why not go for a walk instead or phone one of your friends for a chat? Or do something you enjoy, a hobby?!

First of all, I think that it is fantastic that you are trying to loose weight for yourself and for cancer research :) that must be such a motivation. When you are struggling, think about why you are doing this, and how proud you will feel every week when you loose that little bit more weight...

Oh man I know my LO is only 4 months old ... but I know all about the kangaroo pouch!! By joining the forum has been a good step to getting rid of it :) You can, and will do this hun, stick to your weight loss plan as best you can and feel proud about bringing your little one in to the world :)

Hi there, I am following the WW plan and I have challenged myself over the last couple of weeks to not snack ... and it has been hard but I feel so much better and a lot more motivated for it :) And tracking... that is another big thing that helps me to stay focused :)

Hey x I have not long joined either and I am enjoying the forums so far x I hope you do too and that it helps you more than you found the meetings did :)

Hey Plenty =)

;) Hey everyone. I'm Nicky and my little baby boy, Zach, is 16 weeks old :) I am following theWeight Watchers ProPoints plan and in 4 weeks, I have lost albs.Not brilliant I know, but it is a good start and is a start which I intend to carry on with :) My friend told me about this forum...
