Lots to lose ! Anyone else got lots to lose!

[banishwobbleforever]

Thank you ermintrude, I love cake and cherry pie. Unfortunately this week isn't going quiet as planned, I forgot that we were going out for a meal tonight for our wedding anniversary, I had soup, thai curry, but left most of the chicken just ate boiled rice and sauce, and had a taste of chocolate fudge cake!!! Nut I had only had weatabix, skimmed milk, baby tomatoes and strawberries for the rest of the day. Then tomorrow we are out for dinner with the inlaws-but I will be good as it is not a special day

Looking this week to sts or lose the 1.5 that I gained. Also have a wedding on Friday, arghhhhh!

I also have 6 1/2 stone to lose which seems enormous amounts at the moment but just started and taking each day at a time. Tiny baby steps for me.

I had to weigh in early this week but still lost 1.5 lb which makes me happy. I'm dreading the time when I hit a plateau.

Well I have 2 main targets. One is to lose 4 and a half stone. Thats what I am focussing on at the moment. I could stand to lose another 2 stone after that according to BMI (not the most accurate system to use, I know) but I want to know what my body shape is like after losing that 4 and a half before I decide how much more to slim down. I plan to bulk up with a bit of muslcle at some point. Not to be a big body builder or anything...I just wanna be a bit more defined

I've been working so hard, with food and body magic and only lost 1lb in one month!!!

Worried like hell, have to wait till next wk for results.

Hope your test results are ok and that your weight starts to shift soon x

Ok I need you opinions. I am going to a friends wedding tomorrow (evening) and this is her present. Would you like to recieve a gift like this?

 

[banishwobbleforever]

Thanks hoping, I kno it's off topic but was starting to doubt if it was ok and hubby is useless all he says is 'hmmphh'!

Hi there I am just starting Slimming World (after a 4 year break) again ... I have to lose more than half my body weight and am having a panic ... does anyone else have that much to lose? x

 

[sarahlill]

hi i started at 14.5 and after 5 weigh ins i am down to 13.8 id like to get to 11 stone so a long way to go

 

[ermintrude]

Well, I started at 27st 9... I dont really count - what I lose, I lose... I know can't aim for 11 st so I aim for every 7 lbs, every rolling over of the stone, every 10%, every anything...

 

[CharleyBar]

Hiya, I need to lose about half my body weight nearly!! Oh dear.... but hopefully we can all support each other and the weight will drop off... I just long for the day when i can go into any high street shop and i know they will have my size! It seems now anything of a 12 is "plus size"!!

 

[banishwobbleforever]

Hi Liberty1972, I am slightly heavier than you and also have lots to lose! I am hoping to lose at least 9 stone which will take me back to around about what I was a 7 years ago

Good luck with your weight loss, this site is fantastic for support and help x

 

[ILoveCake]

Welcome newbies, lovely to have you on board. Take it 7lbs at a time. I'm nearly half way on my journey now, commit to it long term and you will get there. X

Does anyone else set themselves a clothing goal for each stage of their weightloss? I have set mine today, I have chosen a pair of size 18 jeans that I can just squeeze into (they are like a second skin and totally indecent!) My goal is to look ok in them by the end of summer as I don't plan on fitting into them next year

Hope no one minds me sharing, helps keep me motivated and focussed.

I often buy things that are too small (sometimes its accidental it may say size 18 but doesnt fit) I get most of my clothing off boot sales much cheaper and I enjoy the hunt

 

[banishwobbleforever]

There seems to be a massive variation in sizes even in the same shop. I hate trying on clothes when I am over weight especially after almost getting stuck in a wedding dress when I was dress shopping

I don't have to buy too many clothes for losing weight as I seem to have most sizes down to 12s, this time though I need to bin as I go down so that I am more aware when I put weight on.
