Not a newbie as such, I first did SW in 2011, but after a 'break' (during which I have unashamedly cheated....
) I'm continuing my weight loss journey because my knees demand it from me. Start weight back in early 2011 was 19st1lb. I did Slimming World and lost exactly 5st to get down to 14st1lb. Personal circumstances (involving a departing now very ex-husband) meant I fell off the wagon and by Jan 2015 I'd regained 1st12lbs, so at 15st13lb I started Slimming World again on 5th Jan 2015. I also joined this group and received a tremendous amount of support and inspiration, mutual congratulations in the high points and mutual commiserations in the low ones, from lovely people who truly understand what a struggle it can be. Did great, getting down to 13st 5lbs by the middle of May 2015 before spectacularly falling off the wagon after a brilliantly mental birthday weekend (no regrets!), and never quite managing to get my head back in the game again. Roll forward to Jan 2018 and I'm 16st 6lbs again - ouch. Now on the downward trend again - phew... Here I am at my heaviest 19st1lb, and 2 pics at my lightest a couple of years ago at 13st5lb. So back to 13st5 is the first target! Hi all
