I'd head over to the WEMITTS thread. You'll find lots of inspiration over there.
It is just a matter of taking it all one day at a time and fitting in as many good days a week as you can whatever plan you are following.
Any movement is good. Just a walk a day to the end of the road and back is a start. Or doing some stretching exercises.
Get a tape measure and measure yourself, it is usually a more accurate guide that those pesky scales.
Good luck.

Are you keeping a food diary? My weight loss if pretty slow but that is suiting me as I'm not really pushing myself so I find it's all fitting into my lifestyle quite well meaning I'm keeping going rather than throwing in the towel.
I think keeping a diary can really help you identify where you go off track and then find substitutions e.g. I know I like chocolate so my HEB is always the chocolate alpen light bars and mixing Options sachets into total yoghurt. I also noticed that if I eat bread I won't stop, so I don't eat it at all now. Use the diary to make discoveries that can help you along the way.
I think 16stone is about 2lb a week over 3 years (although my maths is crap so don't rely on that!!)
Good luck!

That's less than 1.5lbs a week so should not be a problem if you stick to the plan 
Best think of it in small amounts as goals then its less pressure - ANY loss is better than staying the same or putting on! Col Jack and Lily have both lots absolutely loads so they'd be great to talk to. Good luck! x

i got about 16 stone to lose to be at goal. thats the first time i have said it out loud like that. mainly because it scares the hell out of me. i need to lose more than the average person weighs eek. i think about it a day at a time and a stone at a time. this way i dont get disheartened thinking ahead too much. i lost 6 stone before doing Sw but im afraid i have put that back on plus a stone. SW is perfect because if you stick to the plan you will never be hungry and you will lose weight good luck hun! i wish u every sucsess u can achieve your goal just as i am going to this time xxx
good luck hun! i wish u every sucsess u can achieve your goal just as i am going to this time xxxrachaeld82
