I'm 12st 11lbs now and have to be 10st 5lbs to be WW gold weight. Im not sure that weight would be right for me at all so am planning to lose another stone then go and talk to my gp about it. I've heard of people agreeing a weight with their gp that's healthy and sensible. BMI is a very...

Do you mean you lost 5lb in week one? If so bloody well done. If you're starving all the time maybe you're not eating enough? Are you using your weeklies?

Woohoo can't believe it. Lost another 2.5lbs this morning so im now 12st 11lbs and overweight not obese anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally reached the overweight category on Monday. Over the moon! Next little goal is 3.5lbs til I've lost 7st

I lost 2.5lbs this week making me 12st 13.5 eeeek! Can't believe im in the 12s! I feel almost normal lol

Eek thought I should clarify, the doctor taking crisps out of my hand is a colleague as I'm an occupational therapist, not just a random doctor lol. Still bloody out of order though. In some ways its comforting that others have had rubbish experiences but I do find my blood boil reading them...

I hate all the 'should you be eating that' comments. One of the doctors ripped a packet of walkers baked crisps out of my hand and asked if I was allowed to eat them. Bloody cheek! You'd have thought I was eating a family sized chocolate cake! Now she's asking for advice as she's thinking of...

I know its a cliche but this is a lifestyle change rather than a diet. Its not really restrictive but is based on having a healthy amount to eat, as much fruit and veg as you want and treats when you want/need them. You have to want to be slim and healthy. Get creative with ingredients and your...

I've been fannying about for a few weeks on and off track. Work is all changing, the workload is unmanageable and all I've wanted to do is eat. Been to weigh in though and have lost 1lb...suppose my days on track must have paid off lol. Back in the zone, have been to class this morning and am...

Oops, fell off the waggon in style last week and didn't weigh-in. Weighed in this week and have gained 0.5 so happy with that. Yay for damage limitation and getting back in the zone!x

Aw thanks everyone. Its the little goals that are so important to keep us going! Xx

6.5lbs to have lost 7st! Then I'll also be in the overweight category rather than obese! Exciting!!

Eek I forgot to post I gained 2lb last week so weighed 13st 7lbs on 7.5.12 Lost 4.5 this week so now weigh 13st 2.5 Yay! Straight back on the waggon works! Lol xx

Yay! I've had a hard week emotionally because of things at work. I had 3 days off track but managed to climb back on the waggon for 4 days and its paid off, lost 1.5lb so am super chuffed. Good luck all xxx

Lovely! Ok so i was 191lbs last week and lost 1lb this week. Thanks for doing this!x

Aw I was disappointed the last one petered out. I weigh-in at 10am this morning so not sure which weight to give you! X

New goal is to get into the 12s, that will be massive for me! I'm 13st 9 now and would like to do it by the end of May x

Wow, 3lbs is amazing in your last week! Well done!x

It really must be, well done to you too! Im expecting a STS after such a good one last week (and Easter egg!) Xx

Hmmm, looks that way doesn't it! If we still are, I lost 4lbs last week

Ooooh well done Emma! I lost 4lbs xx

SO I reached my 'get in the 13s' goal. I'm 13st 13.5lbs lol. My next goal is not to be obese anymore! I've never been just overweight before, other than probably when I was a toddler lol. So to be only overweight I've to lose 13.5lbs....here goes! x

STS this week. Had to weigh in at home because leader is on holiday and noone else turned up to run the meeting. NOT happy! lol x

Yay I lost another 1.5lbs. Finally into the 13s (even if only by 0.5lbs) lol x

Woo I lost 1.5lbs this week and am now in the 13s! Soooo excited! OK so I'm 13st 13.5lbs but it still counts lol xx

Good decision. You have my utmost respect if you can manage it. I obsess all week on and off the scales lol. Good luck xx

I wouldn't change anything tbh, your weeklies are there to be used. Don't take any notice of your weight until your official weigh in. Theres a reason its once a week!

This will probably confuse you more but it could be that you're not actually eating enough if you're on quite an intense exercise programme. If you're not eating enough your body will cling on to any food you give it, you'll need to eat often to keep your metabolism high. Would your personal...

*bit* not boy Lol

I need to lose 2 little lbs to get in the 13s. That will feel so significant to me as 2 years ago I was nearly 20st. I dunno why...i think its just because to me 13 sounds just a boy overweight even though I'd still have 3st to go Lol xx

Good luck! I couldn't hack slimming world!x

How s how much weight do you have to lose?x

Are you writing everything down that you eat? Are you measuring everything? If so, are you certain you're on the right number of daily points?xx

Lost 1.5lb this week, yay!x

Lost 1.5lb, yay!xx

Thanks everyone! Good luck with weigh-ins xx

Lost 4lbs...turns out exercise works afterall, after 2 STSs I was getting fed up lol

Can't believe it, the exercise has paid off. After 2 weeks of STS I've lost 4lbs. Xx

Haha so if anyone Irish says I look massive I now know not to burst into tears!

I hope this is an autocorrect fail!

I've stayed the same again. Very miffed as I've exercised loads x

Sts for the second week in a row. Could it be because I'm gaining muscle doing exercise wheras was doing none before? I hope so as I'm eating within points!x

alpen lights are 2pp and come in chocolate fudge, chocolate orange flavour etc :)

Sts for me, started exercising again this week so was expecting it. Hopefully now it can start flying off me lol x

I've stayed the same this week, was expecting it as I've got back into the exercise this week... Hopefully it'll come flying off now! Lol x

Yay thanks for doing this! Makes me wanna be good even more this weekend xx

I'm in Leeds x

Maybe eat high point but healthy stuff like oily fish, nuts, seeds, avocado etc. But I agree, don't force yourself to eat more than you want to. Also why not have peanut butter on your crumpets. Maybe deep the low fat yogs for fromage frais, Muller rice, fruit corners etc? Make the most of it...

I'm 202.5 this week, lost 1.5. Yay!

Yay its totm so I wasn't feeling great but have lost 1 and a half all the walking I did paid off! Good luck to everyone still to weigh!x

hope you do well! If you're eating lots of fruit that will be lots of sugar so just be careful!xx

wow I couldn't not use my weeklies! Are you exercising? You might find that you need to use at least some weeklies to see losses. I'm not looking forward to it either, I've been really good but sneaky peek is showing a 1lb gain. Its totm :( x

ooh is it lower points than rice?

Haha, on first reading that I thought you meant you had 10 cereal bars!

My start weight is 14St 8lb...haven't got that in lbs sorry! If I get weighed on Monday do I just tell you Mondays weight on friday? I'm very easily confused forgive me!x

I lost half a pound which I'm really chuffed with since I lost control on Monday Tuesday and most of Wednesday! I've been angelic since then and its paid off. Hoping to spread my weeklies a bit better this week!

Oh, and my start weight (last Monday's weight) is 14st 10.5lbs

yay! Looking forward to getting started!

No time like the present!xx

I lost 2lbs but then pretty much ate all day on Monday and tuesday. I don't even know why! Living just on dailies until Monday for damage control!x

Can I join? Weigh in day Monday!xx

Hey I started at 15St 5lbs a couple of weeks ago and am now down to 14St 11.5lbs. Can't believe I let it slide back up into the 15s but nevermind, onwards and downwards!xx

I know its a cliche but muscle weighs more than fat! Enjoy eating more this week!xx

No flour or milk, don't they taste really eggy?x

As long as all the veg is free don't point it. If you try to pp veg it will come up as containing pps because it has nutritional values like everything else!

Well done losers! I've lost 1lb which I'm pretty pleased yay!x

Completely dreading it! Tried to save lots of weeklies so I could have a relaxed weekend but then realized eating lots of points at the weekend isn't so good for a good result and ate them all anyway. Had fun though! Good luck everyone xx

Ello Ello, I was weighing in for a long time on Wednesdays, then my brothers wedding happened in November and I've pretty much been eating everything in sight since! As a result I put on a stone. First week back on the waggon last week and lost 7.5lbs. New meeting is on a Monday night so...

Name: Catherine Age: 25 Home: Leeds Occupation: Occupational Therapist Weight loss so far: 5st 8lbs Favourite food: Too many! Chinese, pizza, cheesecake, nandos, carrot cake Least Favourite food: mushroooooms! And fishy fish 5 reasons for dieting: 1) to be healthy 2) so I'm not the fat one...

Wanted to lose 3 but only lost 1...better than a kick in the teeth!

Reeeeeaally want to lose 3lbs and get into the 13s tomorrow! Fingers crossed! Good luck everyone x

Me toooooooooo Actually can't believe it!

I've lost 3lbs today, so happy! I'm 5st 8lbs down now, 3st to go!

Aww welcome! You'll be looked after don't worry! I'm just off to the gym and gonna weigh myself at there since I'm not at work this week. A week off tracking pretty much and a hen party lol. Fingers crossed! Good luck everyone x

Sorry to see about your relationship too. There must be something in the air. I should have done it ages ago too but it doesn't make it any easier. Hugs xx

Thanks guys, it'll be off next week hopefuly not on its own. Got my sister-in-law-to-be's hen party at weekend. Hopefully lots of swimming at the spa will help and hoping there's some healthy choices at the buffets! X

I broke up with my bf last Thursday and after a week of olympic level comfort eating I've only put on 1lb. Luckily I've been exercising. Well done to all todays losers xx

Haha I actually think there's some truth in that but let's not do it every week lol I have to say thankyou to you all, until I read the first post I was in the 'ah f**k it, I've ruined it now' and was gonna carry on munching everything in sight til weigh in and points reset but you nevrr know...

Me too completely since I broke up with my bf on Thursday :( Tomorrow is a new day, we can do it!

I've put on 1lb but it was completely deserved! Glad points reset tomorrow, let's try again :)

Terrible weekend! 33 points a day and exercising my arse off to compensate :)

I always went on my own, don't worry about it. Everyone is there to just get fit and have a laugh xx

When I first started exercise again I gained, I assume because of muscle but then it started to come off nicely again. Don't give in, don't let your hard work go to waste xx

Lost 2lbs, went to the gym and then went and had fish and chips for tea. Maybe this is why I'm fat haha xx

Aw me too, I've not gone over points and have stepped up my workouts. Good luck everyone Xx

Crunchies are my chocolate bar of choice at the mo. I can't get my head around the fact that most little treatsize things are 3pp yet crunchies are only 5pp. Something doesn't seem right there. The good thing about them is that they're so sweet I can't want anything else after wheras...

Haha, aw its brilliant isn't it. Its the most fun exercise I've ever done! Unfortunately my leader just left my gym so I can't do it until they find a new lady. I've memorised a couple of the routines though so am doing it in my living room haha. Hope theres no peeping Tom's around!

ooh yum yum. I'd have some chicken with it too. Perfect for after the gym! xx

Haha I've done alright so far and have earned lots of APs which I'm trying not to eat to make up for curry/booze night. 18 left now is well good!x

When I was a size 22/24 I remember really liking TU jeans from sainsburys. They're a really generous size Xx

I didn't know there was a pool there I love swimming! Pure is perfect for me because I do shifts so its really hard to have a set routine

Oh my goodness I've already eaten all my weeklies thanks to wetherspoons curry club and a few drinks ast night. Chuffing hell!

Oh wow thankyou so much. How do they squeeze so many points in things? Lol x

I really like it for the price but I don't find it particularly friendly. The classes are good but zumba just got cancelled so I'm a bit miffed at the mo. A friend of mine has just left Pure to join The Gym in The Core which he says is better and for he same price xx

Hey everyone I'm out at wetherspoons for tea tomorrow after work and its curry club. Does anyone have any idea what curry would be the best option? I've lost my eat out book x

I've gained 1lb which if its true weight gain I'll be really upset at. Hope its just TOTM gain and I'll be able to put in a big loss next week. Keep calm and carry on :) x

I'm in Leeds (headingley) but do shiftwork so not much chance to get out walking. I joined pure gym in town instead

That bikini is special lol I'd be arrested in that! Good luck for tomorrow guys. I've been good this week but I think I'm coming on my period so who knows what the scales will say!!xx

This was me a few days ago. Try to work out what you've eaten and take it off your weeklies then keep calm and carry on. Do as I say not as I do though. I continually ate crap for a few days after a massive argument with my bloke but am back on it now :) Why is it so haaaaard? Lol xx

Oh god I've eaten about 300 biscuits today :( lol

Oh well done! I've taken 2 years to lose 5st lol. Started at 19st 10lbs and am now 14st 8lbs. I've had some stops where I've just maintained for a while but am ready now for the final push. I'm looking forward to silly things like being overweight instead of obese lol Good luck!! X

Wow, thats so brave! I admire you! Can't wait to hear details it sounds so exciting!x

I only have the internet on my mobile so can't open the file until I'm at work but it sounds good! I know we're not on the same diet. Is it diet specific or would it work for any? Xx

I weighed yesterday at the gym and stayed the same. Pretty chuffed after a weekend of camping, eating like a pig and drinking like a fish! Good luck everyone who hasn't weighed yet :-) x

Haha the pedometer should come with an elastic belt!

I was going to chicken out of weighing myself but I've bitten the bullet and done it. I've put on 3lbs because I've just binged and binged since weekend as well as it being totm. I'm pretty disgusted with myself. I don't know why I've slipped so badly into old habits this week but I'm glad I've...

I'm having a terrible day, out with my mum looking for an outfit for her for my brothers wedding. The mother of the bride was there too. Why are a group of people on weightwatchers such a terrible influence on one another when toghether! It started ok with a beef and ham salad but ended with a...

Yay 2lbs off

Good luck tomorrow everyone, I'm hoping for 1lb off as i've been neither an angel nor a devil this week. Fingers crossed!xx

I'm off to the gym then to the chinese buffet tonight (what a contrast!) Keeping weigh in in mind so will try to be sensible :-) x

Haha definitely. Its not our fault or out lack of self restraint at all :-P

I love the cakes like carrot cakes and the lemon ones. I just wish they came individually wrapped!

My boyfriend wanted to go to bed straight after that but i felt really numb for a while after. Think we watched family guy or something as a contrast and to perk us up. It was so grim!

Well done, i've still got a human leg to lose!

I saw this on the ww forums last year and have been googling it but couldn't find it. Thnks for posting. I've lost an irish setter!

Haha i wish i could say my weekends been as fun! Lack of fun times means (this time at least) that i've found it easy to stay on track. I have used quite a lot of weeklies (18 left) but could be much worse!

I don't think you sound as though you're going about this in a particularly healthy way. Wouldn't have thought that 1500 is enough calories considering the exercise you're doing. And also if you're exercising loads late on just before bed you won't be giving your body time to recover...

I love this topic its so motivational. I walked into work last week and was called over to reception. A receptionist thats been on maternity leave for ages said she'd been watching me come in and out for a few days and had called me over to check it was the same person! And she even asked me...

Well done losers! I weigh in at work on a mental health unit but one of the inpatient wards have swiped our scales. I see weigh in as significant in starting off the new week but unfortunately it'll have to wait til tomorrow! How very dare they!

I had very very very messy night on saturday so I'm in damage limitation mode til wednesday. Eeek! Whhhhhy! Lol xx

My mum is having this problem too. She's sts or gained for a couple of months and I'm really worried she's gonna give up if it carries on. She's mid 50s and 19st and I want her round for a lot lot longer but I've no idea how to help her because its working ok for me still

I lost 4 last week but put on 2 this week :-( I'm hoping its just because of totm but I haven't had the greatest week. On the plus side i tried on the bridesmaid dress I'm to get into by November and I'm nearly there! Well done to everyone who's lost! Xx

Good luck tomorrow everyone. I dont have good feelings at all about it, I'll be very chuffed ifI sts after losing 4lbs last week. Someone evil brought cheesecake, lemon drizzle cake, carrot cake AND krispy kreme doughnuts to the bbq i went to. Eeevil!

Aww thats so cute, black and grumpy

Ooh me too! I'm exercising and losing slowly as the last thing I need is saggy skin!

Haha yeah its a good day! I was a monday girl when I went to class and that was good coz it forced you to be good at the weekend (but no fun!) Xx

You can join anytime! I only joined last week :-) xx

I've got 10 weeklies left but my mum has bought blueberry cheesecake, carrotcake and lemon drizzle cake to take. Whyyyy!? Lol x

Hey welcome! I'm in the same boat with the cliques a little bit. I've got about 3/4 stone to lose after already having lost 5st so far with weightwatchers. I was 19st 10lb when I started and I'm 5foot 6 too Good luck! The first week I found weird as you're so motivated but theres lots of work...

Definitey go. 5 minutes in you'll forget to be embarrassed you'll be having so much fun!

That picture is so upsetting. I work in mental heath, the eating disorders unit is on the floor above me. Its so upsetting seeing young girls looking so old and frail sometimes with feeding tubes. My inspirational pic is one I cut out of the simply be catalogue. I want to keep my curves but...

Welcome! I was 19st 10lb when I started which sounds like a mammoth amount to lose but silver sevens and other little goals along the way really keep you going :-) x

Your very last sentence tells me you'll do it. Sounds like in the past you've seen it as a diet rather than a lifestyle change. Wishing you all the luck in the world!xx

Looking for a bit of advice because I'm getting very confused doing internet searches. My boyfriend and I want to go on holiday for a week leaving on 10th October. Can anyone recommend anywhere thats still nice and sunny/warm that time of year? And preferaby not super expensive! Thankyou!xx

WW fits in much better with my life, it makes much more sense to me and there seems like so much more freedom! It also seems to me much more maintainable. I think I'm biased because ww has worked so well for me over the lst couple of years though lol

Yay me too, well done!

I'm exactly like that and it drives me mad! We have aset ofscales in the loo at work (I work on a mental health unit) so I now try and always use a different toilet coz I can't trust myself!

Most days but I don't know why because i just torture myself! The only ones I trust though are the ones at work or if I'm off work I'll go to boots :-)

I'm looking forward to more 'wow is that really you' reactions when peoplewho haven't seen me in ages bump into me. Such a boost!

Yay I've lost 4lbs! And i had fish and chips yesterday lol xx

Hey everyone, welldone on the losses posted so far! I've not long since joined he site and am a Wednesday weigher and have just stumbled upon this lovely thread. This week is the first week in months that I've been properly on track so I'm hoping I'll be posting a loss later on today. Good luck...

Haha I've lost 4st 11lbs so far but still have 3st to lose. I was so happy when i discovered I had collarbones! Now I can't wait to...get rid of the love handles!

I buy clothes i like in a smaller size as an incentive and it seems to work well. I get such a sense of achievement when the zip finally goes up on a pair of jeans in a smaller size (bonus if you can breathe too) My current aim is to get in a size 14 bridesmaid dress by Nov 5th. I'm a 16/18 at...

Yum yum. By home and bargain do you mean home bargains? If so I'm there! I found some tuna light lunch things for 79p in there, full of pasta, tuna in a tomato sauce with veggies. Great for lunch with a big salad and only 5ppts

Hey, you sound motivated! I joined the site yesterday and am doing weightwatchers propoints :-) I started ww in march 2010 and lost over 4st but it ground to a halt for a long time and I've been around 15st 4lbs for months and months. Finally last week I broke into the 14s and am dead chuffed...

Hi all, I'm new here today though have been doing weightwatchers since March 2010. I'm a size 16/18 now but need to be a size 14 for November and thought I could do with some moral support. I work shifts so getting to meetings is difficult, not to mention expensive! Hope everyone is well :)

This sounds amazing. I've been with my bloke a year today and was looking for something to cook as a pudding. Might try this. Wonder if there's any cream type thing it'd go well with for not too many points!
