Thanks guys :) I've never heard of Zumba, I don't have much cash at the moment so will have to wait for my birthday in just over a month and can hopefully save up for a wii then and don't have to exercise in public :D

Thanks, I don't usually do much exercise but I just can't understand how I put the weight on in 2 days :/ *sigh*

Hello, Basically I lost like 10lbs cutting down on food and eating healthier and then I was stuck in a rut and the weight wouldn't budge so I changed to WW two weeks ago. On my first week I stuck to my points and lost 3lbs! woo. But this week I've been really good again, drank loads of water...

Wow, you look gorgeous! You really do look like a different person :) x

Congrats, bet it's a great motivator :D x

Colly, I am hovering on fitting back into my size 18s again I was a size 18 but sometimes a 20. I tried some jeans on and fit into a 18 it feels really good doesn't it! My tops are a little tight sometimes still though but I'm just remembering the times where the 18s firmly fit and it's giving...

Mrs Joyce, I'm surprised you're not constantly in the bathroom lol. I just read an article that says that your body parts can swell if you drink too much water, think it's called water intoxication. Yesterday I drank 2.5 litres quite quickly and I had a splitting headache last night and still do...

Well done on your weight loss so far, you look great! :D Glad you found something that works for you too xx

I've only had 21 points today no idea what to eat now then! Hmmmm, thanks for your advice :)

Sigourney lol, I've chugged 1.25 litres of water already and felt so sick after. So if I drink 2-3 litres of water it should speed my weight loss up? Hope so!

Thankyou Erin, does it matter if I eat under my daily allowance? I know you can't transfer your points but sometimes I don't eat them all by 2 or 3.

Hiya, I've just seen this thread and decided to get the water out! I usually drink green teas and juices so this will be a change I quite like water so I'm not that bothered about drinking it. However I am terrible for needing a wee all the time as it is so drinking 3l of water a day will keep...

Hiya, glad you're enjoying it :) I've nearly finished my second day woo. I only had a half a tin, still can't believe how high they are lol.

I've noticed my belly looks a bit smaller. My boyfriend says my bum is smaller too! I wish it would go from my arms sharpish, I hate my arms eughhh. I've only lost 10lbs so far though so soon hopefully.

Thanks Tonic, I have noticed when I bought good for you salad cream earlier that it seems just as good! I'm gonna go to ASDA later so I might have a look for those casserole mixes they sound interesting :) xx

Thanks BM, I was really hungry for the first week or two when I first started calorie counting and lost a bit of weight so I guess you're right my body needs to adjust! I'm doing a bit better today not feeling as hungry, still hungry though haha. I've only had 12 points though so far, nice big...

Hello Sigourney, I've had a quick look but can't see anything there's so many options :/ I guess we could just start a thread in the general section? Eeeee dunno! x

I'm really sorry that your life is crap hun, if you want to talk about it then I'm here for you :) I have really good listening skills (or should I say typing skills! ;)) I've applied for voluntary work, just for something to do and also to get some experience which is what everyone seems to...

Lol, I know I won't but it's good to know I can have an apple or a banana when I'm peckish! :D

Thanks Tonic, that's the figures I got from the online calculator :) so must be doing it right, yay. Even bananas are 0! Might just have like 10 bananas for breakfast or something haha.

Thanks guys for the advice, I had some instant oats porridge with 180ml skimmed milk as it stated. Porridge is 3.69 pro, 19.2 carb, 2.7 fibre and 1.86 fat. The milk is 6.12 pro, 9 carb, 0.18 fat and 0 fibre. The soup was cream of tomato soup an ASDA brand: 4.8 pro, 25.2 carb, 13.6 fat and 0...

Hello Sigourney, it definitely wouldn't be short skirts for me :D Probably the really light nights until like 9.30-10pm, love sitting in the garden in Summer! :)

Hiya everyone, I decided because my weight is coming off so slow that I'd start the weight watchers diet today with no books or anything, just relying on internet articles etc. So I worked out that I should be 30 points according to my weight. I've eaten today some porridge, a tin of...

Nooooo, why would you have offended me! :D At least I'm not responsible for anyone, only myself *hugs*. I'm not doing well on my diet to be honest even though I'm not eating that much the pounds are just not shifting. So, today I've decided to try Weight Watchers but because I'm skint I...

Hey everyone, after another disappointing week not losing any weight again I've decided to follow the Weight Watchers plan! Just had a bowl of porridge and it said it was 5pp :o I haven't got the books or anything or can't join as I am short of money but would love it if someone could tell me...

Hiya Micci, sorry for the late reply I've only just worked out that you wrote something to me :D I'm still not having a very good week, I'm still sticking to my calories or thereabouts but getting lazy with it. So I'm saying I 'think' this is 300 that'll do and not doing it properly and also...

Hiya, congrats on your breakthrough hun hopefully things will get a bit easier for you now :) As for me, I've been doing quite well on my diet but today and tomorrow I have job interviews and I'm basically I'm a nervous wreck, as I'm not very good in social situations atall. So I've been eating...

I drink green tea sometimes, I always boil the water and it seems okay? The leaves do fall out into the cup though but I think that's normal? I have Clipper green tea and on quick glance I'm pretty sure it didn't even have any instructions on it, tut!

Aw cheers, wish I had some of you as real friends you all seem so awesome! :)

My boyfriend's mum always comments on my weight and I hate it lol. Even when I'd lost like 2lb she'd notice and go on about it. So this time when she came down to visit me and my boyfriend I'd lost like 8lbish and she was like ''wow you've lost some weight'' I was like ''ummm ummm, have I?''...

Lol :P I *think* I've lost an inch from my bust, waist and hips and I've in total lost 10lbs! You win MrsJoyce, booo! ;)

Jebus! I lost like three quarters of a pound on my first week. Congrats ladies :)

To be honest, I don't know what I was to start with so I'd have to rough guess! Oh by the way, does anyone know where to measure the waist? I've heard it's between the bottom of the ribcage and the top of the hips? Or, where you bend down and it causes a crease? I'm like....which one!? :D

Hello :) I've only been on my diet a few weeks and I'm losing weight soooo slowly. I was 13 stone 5.5 for 3/4 weeks and I was eating salads, meat and veg, really healthily during this time so I was really frustrated that my weight wasn't budging especially during this early stage! However, I...

Thanks guys :) it's nice to know I have people on here who I can turn to! *big hugs*

CeeCee, like you I remember every single hurtful comment anyone has ever said to me. I'm so shy and coming out of my shell is so hard because I have so little confidence because of such nasty comments. Even my sister and closest ex friends have been so awful to me :( It's weird I can remember...

Some people are really quite nasty, and don't understand how such unkind comments can affect your confidence permanently :( It seems overweight people are 'easy pickings' for skinny people to attack, being overweight is the ultimate sin in society these days! My dad once said to me, ''if you...

Woo well done! I bought a couple of Greggs sausage rolls for my boyfriend yesterday who was in hospital and didn't even take a bite, was starving too! It's so hard isn't it! It'll be worth it in the end :D

Hello, Viva La Diva I'm new here just saw your thread and think I want to start walking more as you have done so well :D I have been on a diet for like over 8 weeks and I've only lost 8lbs, I'm eating really healthily so I put it down to my lack of exercise I guess. I'm now at 13 stone 5.5 and...

Aw, thanks everyone for the replies really kind! :) I know I should go easier on myself 8.5lb is better than nothing, right? It's just frustrating with such a huge diet change, I want to look slimmer and become more confident! I don't know if I could brave running just yet, I'm trying to...

Hello everyone, I thought I'd finally post after browsing this site for a while :) I've been on a healthy eating/diet for around 8 weeks now. Before this I used to eat a lot of junk food like crisps, sweets, chocolate and generally overeat quite badly. Anyway, the first week I cut down a lot...
