Well done.
 
Gained a massive 3lbs this week, after having a stomach bug. It must have been the bread I have been eating for the last couple of days. Feeling fine now so back to normal eating.

Sorry to hear you have been unwell, hope you are better now
 
Hi Well done to those who have lost weight, however little - and if you've gained then don't be too hard on yourself - this happens - hope you'll soon get back into your regular routine again soon.
I've lost 3lbs bringing my weight down to 9st 9lb from 9st 12lbs so I'm a happy bunny🙂 Take care x

Lost 1.5 lbs at my second SW week.,Shocking week,I got lots of sweet stuff the grandkids and family,who ended going off somewhere for the weekend,and I was left,with a lot of chocolate cake and no willpower! lol. Too distracted with family issues to settle down in a proper eating plan this week,so everything was a disaster. Also my knee got twisted had to go back on the extra strong painkillers for 3 days, which bloat me up and bung me up.:(
Couldnt go for my walks,and the weather was atrocious anyway,so I had cabin fever and just snacked out of sheer boredom.So I suppose 1.5 lbs was good in the circumstances
Oh well,start a new week tomorrow. Must sit and plan meals and rearrange my normal shopping list to include healthy snacks! Want to lose 2 lbs next week to get my half stone award.
STATS SO FAR;
Pre Slimming World:starting BMI 40.Weight loss for March/April - 1 stone. Total to date - 1 stone 5 lbs
1st goal - Get out of the morbidly obese level,i.e.below 35 BMI
SW (week 1 weigh in 2nd May) loss 3.5 lbs - BMI 37.28 BMI
(week 2 weigh in 9thMay) loss 1.5 lbs total 5 lb - BMI 36.96

Well done Dusty48 on your 1.5lbs loss - baby steps then you'll see results - losing weight is challenging and not easy for some so try not to worry at this stage - tomorrow is the start of another day, good luck x

Its a loss for me this week from 108.1 to 107.4, Heading in the right direction.
 
A loss for me too 300g this week doesn't seem a lot but it's nearly a pound so I'm pleased with that
