Just started DC on Friday!

...and wondering if 81 lbs is an insane goal for 8 months. I have to look good in a wedding dress in May!

How are you all finding it?

I am starting today (again) but the DC website says a stone a month so I dont think 81lbs in 8 months is insane you should be able to do it in 6 months if you stick to 100%.

Good luck and you will look wonderful in your dress in May.

use this forum as we will all support you and try to answer any questions you have.

Thanks Shep!

I'm really surprised that I am staying full so far... I can easily eat 4 portions of anything at a time so I thought the first few weeks were going to kill me, but surprisingly I'm staying full! Now I just need to learn to stay away from the arty0036:

Hey Helen, welcome to DC!
I think a stone a month (possibly a bit less) is quite achievable but you should also bear in mind that you might hit plateaus and things, so don't be too disappointed if it takes a little longer.

Having said that, we're all here to support each other and give kicks up the bum (when necessary ) and I've found this forum invaluable on my weight loss journey so far - I hope you do too.

Good luck! x

My thinking is if I aim high for 160 lbs and land somewhere around a size 14 for the pretty wedding dress I have bookmarked I'll still be thrilled!

Thanks for support

Welcome

I don't think 81lbs is that unreasonable either as long as you are 100%. It may slow down a bit as you get nearer to goal but it is doable.

Now just keep away from that bottle, I mean it lol

Enjoy and good luck with your first week
