LL January Starters

[Belle Bee]

I bet that was really exiting, Janey! I've got a couple of trousers like that, I cant wait to feel the same. Well done on doing so well! You'll need to buy a belt now

Brilliant BelleBee, you go girl!!!
Good Luck for rest of your week.
I was extatic this morning, put my trousers on [first time in 3 weeks]and I can get them on and off without opening the button and zip, now these trousers were snug to say the least so this has really made my day!
Hope everyone enjoying the exciting journey like I am!

PS. good luck to all who have a weighin tonight.

[Gemma79]

reading this thread reminds me so much of when I started!

Lucie, I have had a major break out of spots throughout this and although I used to get the odd one it has been many! I'm not sure why, but think it is linked to the diet nd figure I can cope with some silly spots, I know they will clear up in time.

Keep going people, you are doing really well and trust me, the time will fly by!

 

[slendablenda]

Well done BelleBee.
I had forgotten that lovely feeling when you can get the trousers off without undoing them. Thanks for the reminder.
Just wait until you can get in 1 leg !!

Hi All!
I started foundation on Tuesday and have just started on my foodpacks this morning.

I had the porridge - which was surprisingly tasty - for breakfast and am planning on a banana shake soon. I am hungry, but my body is used to a massive food intake so its probably in shock.

I've taken the next 3 days off work so can retire to bed if i feel rubbish. Just drinking my first black tea (Yorkshire obviously!) and although its wierd, its not totally disgusting.

I'm 28 by the way and getting married in 5 months so my motivation is how I'll look on my wedding day.

Looking forward to sharing my journey with you all xxx

Hello January gang. I did not run off and join the circus. I have had a problem with my broadband connection. I hated being offline.

I lost 8lbs in week 1 and 4lbs in week 2. Am delighted.

Just got to read the thread and catch up with what you have all been up to.

Love to all

Hi Roratone, I too am doing this for a wedding, getting married in November though so a little longer for me. We are also quite similar in age (im 26). How are your wedding plans going, have you bought your dress yet.I wont dare even look for one untill i reach my target!

[missbiker]

Hi guys, and welcome to the newbies!

I'm still 100% abstinent, and feeling great with 22lbs lost this year so far. WI on Tuesday, bring it on!

 

[Spannerwanner]

Hi guys

Had WI today. I'm still not letting them tell me how much I lost; I find it strangely liberating actually as I'm not focused on little numbers and can just concentrate on eating the packs.

At my group today everyone was going on about how people are always getting at them for dieting and criticising them. I am amazed at what horrible families and work colleagues they all have. I've never had anyone criticise me, they've all just been encouraging. The worst I have to deal with is my Mum worrying (but she worries about absolutely everything I do so the worrying about my diet isn't anything special).

Hope things are going well with everyone else.

 

[Janey B]

Hiya all, and welcome any newbies who have joined us.
Well had a really good weekend, was worried about it as we've been socialising Sat & Sun.
However I am now very very proud of myself as I feel I sailed through it, only difference between myself and everybody else there was I had iced sparkling water and a plate of salad which I just pushed around the plate when I need too!! [ Did a lot of mingling and talking!]
Hope everyone is looking forward to thier weighins , good luck to any who have one tomorrow.
Janey xx

PS. hope no one minds if I start a running total of weight lost as we go through our journey.
