Hi I’m Natz, I’m 40 in December. I’m retraining to be a gas fitter (services and fixes boilers). Loving it, apart from the fact I’m a fat f*ck! Sweaty Betty is making several appearances and I really don’t wanna be the old fat bird at college. And also, I can keep up with my two girls. I wanna...

THANKS!!! That's put me at ease. I'm still about a lb away from where I was when I found out but my lump is a definite lump only I can feel. Lol! It's been so long since I was pregnant. I forgot everything. Last time was 5+ years ago. ;) Wow you've done amazingly well to be only a lb away from...

Howdy pregnant peeps! Been away from here for a while (gave checked in a couple of times to have a nose ^_^) but been ok I think with dieting. I've just come by to ask a few questions. I'm 16 weeks now and have been feeling bump #2 move since Saturday so I was 15+4 when it happened. Today...

Howdy! WI tomorrow after a week away. No where special. Had to take that as holiday as had to take my nan out to see her twin as her normal excursion day is Thursday and my DD had a home visit thursday. (she starts first school tomorrow in the afternoon.) Wonder how we'll all do?! I know I...

Good luck you'll do fine! :)

Thank you. We had a few we liked but that was the one that stuck. Couldn't convince my OH to have her middle name as her first but I like this one just the same. Lol!

Ah bless. That's a lovely name. Isabel is 5 on the 16th. And mum is still OTT with me and her. But hey I reckon she has control issues. Lol!

Not feeling the love this week. WI is on Wednesday. But feel so uncomfortable. (Tmi sorry!) don't remember feeling this uncomfortable in early preg with my DD. but hey. At least last week I stayed the same. We went out to eat for a friends kids 15th. And been eating too much bread I think...

Ah that's a bugger! Bet your mum is chuffed thou. A gran kid! Sorry meant to ask is it your first or second? My mum has gone from one extreme to the other (miserable cos her free home care for oap has got preg to extastic!) but she was manic with my pregnancy with DD. lol! Mustn't grumble! ;)...

Congratulations on your pregnancy!!!! and again so sorry to hear about your loss! Well done on your weightloss so far that's fab! i'm trying to have all 4 extras but not always successfully, i am having both a's as i need it for the calcium for my arthritis. with my last pregnancy i drank so...

Hi, i joined last september and have lost nearly 2st since. i joined due to fact my knees were bad and when we started trying and i got pregnant id need to have lost a load of weight. i told everyone that if i was pregnant i would continue to stay at sw till i had and rejoin straight after. i...

Congratulations to Mummy and Daddy! Sorry to hear about the tear but yes worth every second to get a result like her! Beautiful name!!! I tore with my DD. but don't even think about it 5 yrs on. ;)

Had my weighin and after having given up smoking (found i'm pregnant) and feeling nausea (eating crackers -bad!!!) I've been putting on for the last 2 weeks and this morning I have lost 2.5lbs. So pleased! Been really trying not to snack on crackers and it's obviously worked :D Hopefully you all...

Hi. Have you gone to any breast feeding support groups in your area? I'm a mother supporter for our local bf group. Speak to a bf counsellor they may be able to help find out why little man is having trouble. But down get down too much about it as thats no good for you or him. I fed my DD for...

Yes to two of each HE. And go for EE as will give much more varied. Hope ur taking your folic acid. I'm having readybrek (HEB) that's got it in too. Congrats btw! I'm knackered and hot too. Im 6+4 i think. Was feeling nauseous but that seems to have passed. Was eating (HEB) ryvitas to help...

Thanks. Yes very early to find out. So I feel like I've been waiting forever to see someone about this pregnancy lark. Saw mw at about 6 wks with DD. not going to see one til 10-11 wks with this one. So bizarre. Hey ho. Fingers crossed for a stickey one! ;P

Thank you! :) Thanks ;)

Hi all, I'm 33, this is my second pregnancy. I'm about 6+5 weeks. DD is 5 in September. Very excited about it. I've been trying to lose weight since September and been up and down loads but am almost the same weight as I was when I found out I was pregnant with DD. so pleased about that but my...

Crossed fingers for you! ;)

I had a sweep at 10 days past due date. It's uncomfortable that's for sure but if it gets things going... Lol! DD didn't turn up til the induction was booked at 13 days past and was intiated, she was born 16 days past due date. Hopefully that won't be the case for you.

Good luck with WI and have fun! Starting afresh is hard, not knowing anyone or changes in the cliques that were there (well that was me anyway!) but go you! ;)

Need a kick up the arse! Had a half pound loss! Happy with that especially as had a weekend away but really struggling at the moment. I think I go thro fits and starts with it. Anyone up for the kicking part?! ;) any inspiring ideas how to get me on track again? TIA!

Still in here by the skin of my teeth! :S Had a half pound loss at today's WI but had a weekend away. Tried to choose properly but still enjoyed myself. A loss is a loss nonetheless! :) Need a good kick up the arse... Anyone wanna supply it?! ;) Well done with all the losses, especially emmab...

Whoa! That's fantastic! Super well done! :D

Wow that amazing. Well done you. With your attitude I'm sure you'll make it sooner than that! ;)

Wow. That's amazing. Congrats on your award! No wonder your so chuffed! ;)

Well done everyone for losing! Amazing weight loss! Weighed in yesterday. Put on a half. Wasn't unexpected but still disappointing. Now 2.5lbs away from club 10. Will have to step up the exercise. May even go back to writing it down and reading my book again! :) We are away for the weekend...

Well that has just sold it! I'll let you know when I've sampled it. Or may have to wait till I have recovered from my 'joy'! ;)

That does look incredibly yummy! May have to buy the ingredients tomorrow after weigh in. Lol!

Bricking it! I would like to lose 2lbs but I think it may either be half or 1lb. Hope you all lose what you would like. GOOD LUCK WEDNESDAY LOSERS!

Had a gain this week, only a lb and it is *week, but don't think the roast dinners I had at weekend did me any good thou. *hangsheadinshame* I was so close to my club 10 too (1lb away) and i blew it... 2lb to get off for next WI.. never mind next week is another chance to get that shiny! I like...

Don't feel deflated.. 4st is amazing but the less you have to loose the harder it gets I've been told... Hopefully you'll get you loss next week with your juggling about on plans. everything is crossed for you! :)

I had that in feb and march but something happened (think I've been moving around more) and I've been going down the scales. Hopefully something will click (brain, food or more exercise?!) and you'll do the same! Good luck! *hugs*

After it being OH birthday and going out for a meal together with another SW friend and her OH (bloody nice meal:break_diet:) total unexpected loss of a lb :eek:, even star week at the weekend and felt really bloated. I couldn't have been happier at WI today! Which now makes me 1lb away from my...

@fat&40... Lol! Sneaky hey?! Haha!

Hey. Welcome and good luck! I am known to put on during star week too. Had mine last week and only lost 1/2. Was gutted but at least it was a loss. Hope you get a loss too. Even if it is a small one. It all adds up! :)

I know its not Wednesday but had an appt at hospital today and they had to weigh me and it was around the same time I normally get weighed on a wed... and to my surprise (as not had a good week :() I got weighed in Kgs at 101.8kgs, so I worked it back to pounds and got 16st... woohoo!! :bliss...

Beef brisket with loads of veg and boiled spuds. :)

I like this. You so right! Good luck to us all on our journey, whether it be long or short! ;)
