Steps into thread to say hello "hello"
Into my third week. Weight has started to come off, after a small gain in week one - probably linked to my body trying to reject anything healthy.
Have plenty to lose, fed up of the kids trying to use me as a trampoline "like Peppa and George do" been trying to laugh it off for a while, but after going to the docs with a bad case of flu over Christmas reality kind of hit home, I had a few "age related" tests and a good ticking off
time to sort myself out.
Here's to being a much slimmer "daddy pig" in 2012.
ps: any more blokes on here, I feel a bit like a thorn in between all the roses

Hi
I started SW this Monday weighing in at my heaviest ever but also feeling optimistic.
My diet history is a rollercoaster to say the least, I was overweight during my teenage years despite having, as a nutritionist put it, a "perfect" diet, and exercising 5 days a week. Then I just got disheartened and didn't care what I was eating, although I did carry on exercising.
When I started working full time I decided to try Slim Fast, but an extreme version of it so I would have 2 shakes a day and some hummous and breadsticks...that's it. And I would combine it with 2 hours of exercise. Despite managing to lose 3 stone in as many months, taking me down to 12st7, it was completely unsustainable.
In the subsequent 5/6 years I have moved away to uni and have put on as many stones in as many years. Now I have sorted the rest of my life out- I have a wonderful and stable relationship, somemthing I could never have envisaged, and have started my dream job- I need to finally tackle my weight in a positive and healthy way. No more excuses.

Hello, started 11/1/2012 online after failing to follow the plan properly myself at home. I'm really enjoying it at the moment but finding the biggest challenge eating out. Looking forward to posting.:talk017:

Hi everyone! I joined Slimming World this week and can't wait to see if it works for me. It is great to find such a huge online forum full of like-minded people. This is my first venture into weight loss and I just hope that I'll look back at my decision to join Slimming World as a real turning point in my life. Finger crossed!

Hi everyone,
I started Slimming World on the 17th of January and am absolutely loving it. I've lost 4lb's so far and am hoping to get my half stone sticker next week.
I just wondered...if I stop going to group do I still get access to the slimming world website via my LifeOnline pin? I don't enjoy group and rarely get to stay as the class I go to is late evening!
Good luck to everyone, I have a great time reading through all the forum posts and cooking all the recipes, too!! xx

Hi all,
I'm new here and have decided to join SW as I am currently at my heaviest ever and really want to feel better again.
I joined on Thursday evening but really started this morning. It is kind of hard as I am feeling peckish and really craving a biscuit or two, but I've been resisting so far. I've been reading this forum for some motivation and inspiration and so far it is doing the trick.
I look forward to participating a lot more on the forums.

Hi, I'm not new to the boards (although I haven't posted for ages and then I didn't post much!) but I am new to the Slimming World section. I haven't actually joined yet but I'm going to do so on Tuesday. I'm getting married in September and I want to be 11st something by then...
