I lost 4.5 lb this week. I lost my way. The personal trainer I had was great, between July and January but I lost no weight at all. I was training full on 2 or 3 times a week but nothing happened. So I jacked it in and went back to slimming world, mucked around for 2 weeks and then knuckled down. So I am 4.5 lb lighter this week. 🙂

Well done to everyone else, its going great.
 
Well done Adrienne! Keep it up.
 
Nice to see you in here Adr hun well done on the weight loss.x
 
Thank you very much ladies. I am trying very hard now. 🙂

Adrienne, do you want your weight loss recorded? Or are you just losing recent gains?

Hopefully we can add it as that is a brilliant loss. Well done.

Oh add it on yes absolutely. I have about 8 or 9 stone to lose so yep all weight added on (hehehehe) but it now needs to come off. I'm in the right frame of mind and have my pals at the cwd list helping me along the way. They are giving me help, inspiration and recipes (yummy) which are all free on my food plan.

So 4.5 lbs is a start, I have small goals so we'll see how it goes.

🙂
 
Hi Everyone,

Can I join in? Since diagnosis I have lost a total of 6kilos - 12 lbs, does that count or do I start from today? Is there any specific day we weigh in?

I badly need motivation as I'm not able to get out with the dogs (walking) as the snow and ice is too difficult to walk on. However, I do have an exercise bike. Why oh why, do we find it so boring! Note to self, get on that damn bike, even if it's 3 x 10 minute stints!

Donna, think we are just doing this year - so any idea what you have lost since New Year? The boss, Lucy, will let us know!
 
Oh, and of course you can join in - the more the merrier and the more stories to read and identify with.
 
As to the boredom, one of the few useful things my practice nurse has said to me is that when the adverts come on telly to stand up and move around, depends on how energetic you are, but it does actually help. I sometimes do a few stretches and even sometimes do a few floor exercises whilst watching the telly. I only look at exercising as toning up and preventing excess skin.
 
Marge, to be honest, I haven't been weighing myself recently but how often would you recommend? Once a week? My clothes definitely feel looser which is a good thing! I'm not going to weigh myself again until Monday and I will report any losses then!!

Once a week is perfect. If you do it more you could become despondent as each day is so very different.

Sounds like you have done great with the loose clothing. I hope to get there one day.

Donna, once a week is what most of us do. Except Andy with his .2 - lol

try and stick to one day, similar time. Also, we tell people at Slimming World to take measurements and when you feel stuck and despondent, measure yourself again and feel good when you see the inch loss.
 
oh wow!!!! well done everyone ..... gosh isn't this great :D

I'm on another forum that has a weight loss section but there is very little encouragement.... but on here it is great😎
 
Well done everyone who has lost weight in the last week, you are doing brilliantly. Adrienne that is a brilliant weight loss
 
Donna - you are more than welcome to join us.
Only 2011 weight to be recorded!!!
How about having a guess at what you have lost approx and record that, or maybe use now as a fresh start - the choice is yours. Great to have you aboard.
