Hello,
I am new to Minimins and I am hoping this forum will help me along my SW journey!
My journey started in May 2009 and by April 2010 I had lost a thrilling 7st 8 1/2lbs. My weight went up and down between April and the start of September but has rocketed since then. When I rejoined SW last week my total weightloss stood at exactly 4st. I am thrilled that I've lost that amount but obviously kicking myself (frequently and hard) that I've wasted all the effort (no blood but certainly sweat & tears) of losing the 3+ stone I've regained.
To put my ongoing journey into context I'm about 9/10 stone away from a modest target (hard to know as I've never ever ever been anything other than solid, chucky, heavy, fat and then ridiculously fat). I realise that, even beyond group, support is one of the key factors for me and I'm hoping this forum will help with that as my friends who are fabulous and so supportive and encouraging are simply to "friendly" to be honest with me when things are going wrong (ooh go on have dessert, you look great, etc... when the reality is I am double their size).
Fingers crossed some of my ramblings made some sense and possibly touched a chord with someone - as I really hope I'm not alone in the type of journey I have ahead.
I really hope this isn't too much information for a newbie post!
I look forward to getting to know the forum users
