Hi girls - mind if I join you? I've had a look at a few of the team threads but think I'd fit in well with you
I'm Catherine, 32 and have 4 stoneish to lose. I'm a bit of a failed serial dieter. I can't seem to do any other now apart from sw as it's so flexible although I'm not sure why I can't seem to stick to it long enough. I think it's partly to do with the fact I lose weight so slowly and after a while I get really disgeartened - it seems so much effort for so little reward. Since new year I have been trying to increase my exercise (DP bought me a cross trainer for Christmas) and even without really being mega good with food have managed to lose 3.5lbs. I figured if I start watching what I eat more closely it should come off quicker so I'm starting sw again - hopefully for the last time. I'm not going to class as I've been to a couple and because I can't stay to image therapy it seems a waste of money so I'm weighing in at home. I thought I'd start with you guys weighing in tomorrow. I have a voucher for a takeaway so we'll be using that tonight so I'm not tempted with it after I start lol.
If I can just lose 1lb a week by Christmas next year I'll be nearly there and I'e got loads to look forward to this year including a spa weekend with my 2 best friends in July and it would be extra special if I could be a couple of stone lighter by then!
I'm a working mum with 3 children (14, 3 and 21 months).
I'll update tomorrow with my new start weight and sort out my tickers
