Hi all,
I am also a second time round girl, lost a little under 3 stone by July last year
. Then my counsellor left and I joined another group for management. I didn't really settle in this group and used the fact that the class was too far away and too late at night as my excuse to stop attending.
At first I did ok, even managed to stay more or less the same weight after a 3 week family holiday.
However, the weight was slowly creeping on... lots of the lovely clothes I bought were too tight but thankfully I didn't buy any in a size up!!!
Then, in December, I got a letter from the counsellor I met during the ill fated management sessions.... she had a refresher course starting 12th January 2008. That is the best letter I have ever received!!! I knew I was putting weight back on and didn't want it to continue.
Anyway, I went to the session today and met lots of lovely new friends, all in the same boat as me and knew I had made the right decision with rejoining. I even had a pleasant surprise... I have only put 21lbs back on, not the 2 stones I thought it was!!
I've read all of the other threads in this forum and was very motivated to learn that after the first two weeks I should be ok, thanks to you all, it does help to see that it can be done!!!
I am sooo looking forward to:
Take care
Trish xx

I am sooo looking forward to:
- increased energy levels
- shiny, thick hair
- long and strong nails
- beautiful, healthy, glowing skin
- being able to open the wardrobe and take out anything knowing it will fit, look good and I'll feel great
Take care
Trish xx
