Hi. A big welcome to 2014 and to new members

[upndown]

Hello. You two seem to be doing fantastically well with your weight loss. I don't understand pro points so I can't help but I do think this site is brilliant. The people using the site are certainly experts based on first hand experience. I was following slimming world on my own but the doctor suggested I try orlistat and following a low fat diet. This is fine but its amazing how much fat is added to foods.

Welcome - I'm finding this site is really helping me - and hope u find it helpful for u too - good luck with ur weight loss journey.

Hi Everyone,

Good luck with your weight loss girls. I have just joined slimming world, the consultant advised me to follow Extra Easy so I am giving that a go. Any advice or tips would be marvellous. I'm trying to lose about three stone before my wedding in August which is a massive goal so wish me luck!

Hi. I have just joined and have been doing Slimming World online since January. I've been a yoyo dieter for years but have decided enough is enough. I am 40 in December so would like to finally be a weight I am happy with by then. I did Dryathlon in January, which gave me a great kick start. It also made me realise that although I enjoy alcohol, it has been the thing that has stopped me being successful in all the diets I have done.

It's great to see the profiles of dieters on here. Totally inspirational!

Hello all. I was just reading through the last few posts and thought how we all have our reasons or goals for losing weight this time and they are really diverse. I think my motivation is that I am 60 and i really need to lose 3 stone. yes Im taking swimming and gyming seriously but I want to lose this weight so I can really enjoy my retirement and because I want to be able to wear and look good in the clothes I like. Good luck all.

You and your jacket spuds! Lol

I wouldn't have been too pleased at a 6am wake up call at all

I have no idea where the hotty botty is and my wheat thing that goes in the microwave has a hole in I'll be ok.

Thanks hun xx

Hey everyone.

I just joined today and I'm glad to see that there's so many of you here. As i'm writing this I have a couple of cake left over in the cabinet with my name on it that I'll happily indulge in tomorrow once my fast day is done.

Hopefully this forum will distract me for the next couple of hours(...you vanilla cream masterpieces...)

welcome this is just the place for distraction! lots of friendly ppl in the same boat! Good luck!

Hello!
I'm new too! I think this website will be just what I need!! I would like to lose a stone ideally and I'm really struggling to lose it. I initially lost two stone after separating from my husband and have put a stone back on so would like to lose it, a healthy stress free way, so am doing slimming world. Fingers crossed!!

 

[mo53]

Hello Minnie. You did well with your weight loss even though you put some back on. Brilliant! Have you joined a group or are you doing it on your own? Good luck.
