LL STARTERS IN JANUARY 2007

[joh117]

Hi Tootsie

Thanks for your words of praise. They are much appreciated.

My body seems to do 3 weeks of small loss then one week of big loss. Overall in the last 4 weeks I have lost 14lbs so its not bad.

All our group seem to be at the same stage all about 3 stone off by week 9. Our LLC says she has never had a group that has lost the 3 stone so quickly.

I will be going to Sri Lanka the slimest I have ever been so my husbands family will be in shock when they see me (not been for 3 years)

As far as my clothes go I have dropped from a size 20 to a size 16/14 bottom and 14 top. Depends where the clothes are from. I actually bought a size 12 jumper that fits perfect but it must be a large 12!!!

I want to change my goal weight from 9 1/2 stone to 9 stone after discussions last night with LLC she says not to come off the packs to early and to stick with SS right till we hit our goal then there is no pressure to loose weight once in management she says there is enough pressure there already dealing with the world of food again.

Guess that makes sense

It's great you are doing so well Jo!! Won't your family be in for a big surprise. Relish all the compliments you will get as you totally deserve them.

Our group is also doing so so well. Everyone is either at 2.5 or 3 stone and we have had no drop outs. Got one woman though, who I have to say really irritates me. Can't really say too much as she may read these posts but sufice to say she has lost the least and don't really think she is taking any of it seriously, all she does is laugh and to a certain extent ridicules other members when they have an issue or problem they need to get off their chests. I don't normally feel this way about people but this means so much to me and all the others, she frustrates me and to be honest I wish she would leave (think she may do soon)!!!

I digress, sorry......

Great news about the clothes sizez however, if you have bought a 12, then you are a 12, keep that in mind. Don't make excuses that the 12 is a big 12, it is a size 12 after all, be proud!!!!

I am feeling really good about my size now and don't really think I should lose much more but am so scared to go into management. Think I will have a chat with LLC tonight and see what she says. Another thing is that I don't want to lose out on the next few weeks of coucelling as I get so much out of it and if I go into management I will have to swap groups, don't know what to do.

Anyway hun, have a great day and keep strong xxxxx

Our group has halved in size we have gone from 12 to 6. The first girl dropped out on day 1 and it has gone from there. But the 6 of us that still go really get on very well and all look forward to the meetings each week

I am a little disappointed that my after photo is going to be taken at week 12 as I will be in Sri Lanka for the correct week. I did offer to get my husband to take a photo and email it through but she didnt seem keen! A week or two could make all the difference LOL

cheers!!

And I'm loving the new format, so we can see how much people have lost in how many weeks, i thought I was slow, but I'm actually bang on! Fool that I am

 

[AngieBabie]

I am so happy, I have lost another 5lbs this week. Since I have been on this diet it is so worth waking up to start a new day! Its exciting to try and guess what weight and shape I shall be the following week. I love LL, its my saviour!

Tootsie will you add my 5lb loss to my total. 24lbs in 4 weeks yeah! Well done everyone else for their sensational losses this week.... we are all winners! Angela x

 

[SuzyA]

Another new one!

Hi all

I hope you don't mind me joining in your thread. I started my meetings on 27 Jan but didn't start LL until 1 Feb because I couldn't get to the doctor. I spent last night reading all your threads and got really inspired by all your messages.

My group is good but not keen to get involved outside of group and I would really like the support. i travel a lot with work and have many social functions to go through so love the forums.

Many people in group don't like the counselling in the DVDs with one woman going on about how the Irish guy was a paedophile - which isn't true I believe!

Anyways you all seem much more positive so if I can give some positivity back, I'll love to join you!

Thanks
Suz x

 

[AngieBabie]

Welcome SuzyA. This board is a wealth of information and support. Good luck! Love, Angela x

 

[skinnyminny]

Hi welcome to the "family"

You are more than welcome to join in & I hope you get all the support you need, we have similar amounts to lose (if my maths are right).

How are you finding it so far?

This site is great for insiration & support when having bad moments (had my fair share) and I would never have got this far without the wonderful minimins.

[SuzyA]

I think like everybody I have my moments of this is so easy and at other moments I feel like the most deprived person in the world. I have found social drinking occasions harder than dinners so end up going home early.

Keep thinking this is only temporary but then also scared because it is dawning on me this is for life not just for foundation! That has never hit me on another plan before. Also still dreaming about cheese and onion sandwiches and cheese and ham toasties. Possibly a theme there!

Fab news, AJ. Your honesty and commitment are fantastic qualities and your management diary is inspirational for a newbie like me!!

Well done on your latest loss, VirgoGirl. I'm also a Virgo and getting married. In fact, having a look at the weekend, but not planning to buy til I've shifted some more weight!

Toots, can you update my stats too, please

cheers for the update Toots & your kind words. Love the new layout too - really good to see the overall loss & number of weeks.

Congratulations AJ - 7 stone is something else!! you must be celebrating big time - you certainly deserve it. And you are an inspiration to us all.

well done everyone on the fab losses - long may this last!

Hi everyone

Lost about 4lb this week - well I say that it was 3 3/4 & as I have generally rounded down in previous weeks thought I would call it a straight 4 to even things out. I have lost just over 40 lbs in 8 weeks whihc I am really please about.

Next week aiming for the 2lb to get to the 3 stone mark.

Alot of thr group have eaten this week - some of the quite alot and still either lost or maintained. Which is a bit annoying!

Never mind off to bed now as very tired will catch you later

"Alot of thr group have eaten this week - some of the quite alot and still either lost or maintained. Which is a bit annoying!"

Don't take it personally Skinny, you will already be aware from posts on Minis that people who eat during SS, usually regret it , because it then becomes more difficult to stay abstinent when the going gets tough again (as it undoubtably will).

Think about the fact the you'll get to goal quicker and start Management, spend less money on packs and more on new skinny clothes!

 

[SuzyA]

Hi Skinny

I agree with AJ as well. A few pickers have emerged in our group too but it's just going to make it harder in the long run. They also have quite a lot more than me to lose. You are doing so well at the moment so don't take any notice!
