Current bmi 48.9...in other words morbidly obese, being 9st 7lb would give me a bmi of 23.9 in normal range...ten stone to lose.. Have no support from bf in real world, only putdowns, so relying on support here..Also concerned as to how to tone up loose skin when Im losing so end up like folk on "the biggest loser"...and be toned and not like those on "a year to save my life" who have to get skin removed. I may not be as big but not far off and I have 25 years of a ravaged body due to fat...and so the journey begins...*

You'll get loads of support on here and I'm sorry you bf is unsupportive and puts you down, if he loves you it shouldn't matter about your size and he should support your wanting you lose weight for yourself. Regardless of the support in your life you'll get lot of support here from people in the same boat that really understand xx

Linda .......

Hugs sweetheart,, your bf should love you for the wonderful woman you are. It's hard when people don't understand but we're all here for you every day and with every pound you loose xxxxxxxxx

 

[L.i.n.d.a]

Thanks oasis n becca, and I might be newbie but am here for you too..as the only folk who understand are those who have had lifelong weight/life struggles too.. x

My husbands guest comment after the usual mornings and love you'd was well I wonder if this is the year you loose weight. I've worked out I've now been loosing the same baby weight for 4 years in 14th jan and its affected my confidence relationship everything. But hubby just doesn't get the plan and is one of those Ben who can eat anything and not put on weight and equally can go without food grrrrr. But I will show him
Day 1 and was 100% used all my daily pp and that's all.

 

[oasis6918]

Well done! My hubby is quite supportive, apart from offering me naughty food all the time or trying to tempt me but if I say no he'll usually just leave it, if I say you know I'm dieting he just says yes but its polite to offer, he just keeps saying he can't see anything wrong with me if loves me for me and not my shape, but if I want to lose weight then go for it and if not just enjoy myself ha. I'm lucky in that way but I also still want to show him I'm not all talk and I can do it, he's seen me loose 4st before so he knows I can do it - to an extent but I'd like to WOW him if you know what I mean xx

 

[Nikki321]

My boyfriend is also someone who can eat anything and not put weight on but he's really good! He excersizes with me, eats my ww food and compliments me all the time however I've told him today that if I suggest takeaway he has to say no & if I put weight on he needs to be abusive! As a size 14 and 5ft11 I don't look huge until I stand next to my 5ft size 4-6 best friend! Hope you're all okay! Xxx

My bf hates fat, and the way i look. 7 years together cos its easier then not being....his fav line, "you told me 7 years ago you were gonna change and youre still the same..." Ive been on unsuccessful lifelong quest to lose weight battled against being an emotional eater, like many are. I gotta do it...after millionth attempt. All diets work when done properly. WW seems one of the simplest...

 

[L.i.n.d.a]

Nikki youre a lucky lady, and I love hearing happy stories...x

Linda you're gonna show your boyfriend! We're all here to support you and for every pound you lose we will be happy for you! You can do it & you will do it! Xxx

 

[L.i.n.d.a]

Thanks honey x ¦')

 

[mrs-s]

Doesn't sound very nice Linda! I'd kick him into touch! You shouldn't let him speak to you like that xx

My DH is the same, always slim and toned and can eat whatever. He doesn't get it either, thinks he's being nice giving me the biggest half of something or getting me a bar of choc when he goes to the shop! I feel bad but we've been together nearly 5 years I've been trying to lose weight for 3 of them and he still hasn't took any notice! x

 

[butterflybow]

Linda let's see what he says when another handsome man starts seeing you for the lady you are eh Use all that to spur you on - you want to make him feel sorry for ever doubting you!

Good luck everyone with your 2013 weight losses!

Hi everyone I've just been reading through this thread and it has given me some motivation you all seem soo motivated and ready to fight the pounds!! Was hoping I could join you all !! I've been here on minimins a while my weight constantly fluctuating, but I'm now losing this dreaded weight for the last time!! I put a massive 8lbs on over Xmas and I wasn't even that naught :/!! But hey ho not going to mope lol!! But anyway my names jenn I'm 23 from Devon and I weigh 14st 8 and am only 5"5 so quite over weight I'm a size 16 in clothing which I have never been in my life....ever!!! Even when I was pregnant with my now 4 year old Kara.

I see ppl on here were mentioning about exercise DVD's and it just so happens I have the Jillian Michael shred gathering dust I've started it a few times but never finished it, so if anyone on here wants to buddy up on here and do it with me would be great then we can compare results.

While I was reading through I noticed your comments Linda and just want to let u know u can do it!! Your partner being like that is terrible and you deserve to be treated better (soo big virtual hugs to u).

Anyway sorry for my S.A. and look forward to joining u all with your journeys we can do it and I'm more motivated than ever

Xox

 

[lis2811]

Happy New Year everybody!!! Back on the wagon as of today and feeling very excited

Decided to stay off the scales until my official weigh in at class tomorrow night......really haven't got a clue what I am but if I'm under 12st 7lbs I'll be quite pleased :-/ fingers crossed!

Off to the gym straight after work to start my C25K programme, can't wait!!!! Have a good day everybody

PS loving peeps food plans as it gives me loads of fab ideas Xxxxx

 

[sookie]

Although this probably only excited me I have just discovered that lidl (of all places!) do these really nice hand cooked crisps and you get a 6 pack with 2 of each flavour, salted, salt & pepper & salt & vinegar for about £1.80 and they are only 3pp a pack but they taste so much more!!! Since being on weight watchers I have been easily excited by boring things! Hope you're all okay. Today is my last naughty day before I start again tomorrow as Wednesday is my weigh in day as that's when I'll be doing class until at least September xxx

Excites me big time... I'm a crisp fan especially the hand cooked ones, even more so when they are sea salt and black pepper flavour x

 

[lis2811]

Mid am snack mixed berries Greek yoghurt 1pp
