Hi Kankles, Well done for your fab loss.
Sounds like you are really enjoying getting stuck in and getting the weight shifted, it's a great feeling isn't it?

Keep up the good work!...

 

[Kankles]

Thanks Emmaline! I'm really loving SW this time round. There are some fab recipies on here that are making my weight loss journey that much easier because I don't necessarily feel like I'm dieting and therefore missing out on all the foods I enjoy!

I only lost 1lb this week (weigh days Friday morning from home), so I am hoping for 2-3lb this week if possible, although I've got my * week now so that may hinder it slightly. Hey ho, as long as I'm still losing I'm happy.

How long have u been doing SW? How's ur weight loss been so far?

Not actually doing SW as you may note, but just like to browse the forum and try to encourage as many as poss as I know how much it helps me.

Weight loss so far is 24lb since April 2010. very slow but not surprising considering I am unable to exercise much and am on a variety of meds. Determined to get this weight off tho' , once and for all!!

Onwards and Downwards!!
