Okay, so it might be a little early on in my journey to suddenly throw caution to the wind and loudly declare my undying love. I mean, it's hardly an established affair, we've only had relations for 5 short weeks after all. The cynics would probably say we were still very much in that "Honeymoon...

I'd like to join in if I may? :-) I'm Steph, 27 (but not for much longer :'-( ) I'm happily married and Mummy to three, (DD 8, DS 2 & Tiny DS 1 :-) ) Hubby and I have decided definitely no more babies, so I'm now on a mission to shift the baby/chocolate/comfort food weight! I was 12.1 at...

Honk!! :-D was a tough day though, broke down outside of macdonalds (emotionally not in my car!) and had to hold my breath when putting petrol in, so I couldn't smell any of my favourite junk :-/ (how many syn's in a sniff of Maccy D's?! Haha) Soooo one very proud honk over here on day 6...

Yep, I do! :-D It helps keep me on track. Initially I only intended on it being for the future skinny Steph to see lol But then I figured if I remained pretty anonymous I wouldn't be embarrassed or mind who was watching and it might motivate me to keep at it! So that's what I do now :-) I post...

Zumba is fab! It's probably the most enjoyable kind of excerise IMO (well, almost ;-) Haha!) I've been using a weighing scales and BMI calculating machine-thingy at the gym, which also measures body fat percentage, I felt checking my bf % (which started at arond 35% and is now about 32%) would...

Hey guys, Glad someone else asked about this, I've been wondering too... I've been Gymming it regularly (every other day or so) since beginning of Nov last year, managed to shift 7lbs just working out, but then hit a standstill and have been weighing the same, more or less, for about 3 weeks...

Awww thanks guys, was feeling such a failure! I'm happy to make the changes, if anything I think the easiest thing would be to follow a set menu, that way I can stay focused and I won't have to think too much, if that makes sense? I have 3 children, 2 under 3years, so I'm not great at...

Hey guys, I joined Slimming World last night, after very little consideration and armed with pretty much zero knowledge of the plan, sounds stupid I know, but I was just sooo desperate to find something simple to follow, to help me lose the weight that exercise alone just isn't shifting, and...

Hey guys, I want to try something simple, SW sounds good! (You can eat chocolate?! lol Real chocolate?!) Is it easier than WW? And is it possible to try it out without signing up? DH says, and I quote "I'm not paying that to be told what I can't eat!" lol :-/ I'm sure he'd be more willing if...

Best of luck! Sounds like you already have the determination and know-how to succeed!! :-D I seriously struggle with breakfast too, I just don't feel hungry in the mornings and find I have to force it down :-/ sure it'll become a habit soon though. I read somewhere the other day that the real...

I struggle with snacking when I get bored, I think sometimes I just need something to do with my hands... So now I do a little cross-stitch, or I'll play sudoku or something, to distract me and steer me from the kitchen! Lol Are you able to go swimming? It's low impact so usually a good option...
