  • Hi all, can i join please? I have so much to loose - i'm embarrassed to say - but i think that i will just see how i go. I did lose 2 stone 5 years ago, but have had a child since and all has gone back on and then some!
    I had my 1st weigh in (boots scales) and i have lost 5lbs, which i am so chuffed about, and i must admit it's not been that difficult.
    My weaknesses are: chocolate:crisps:biscuits, mainly.
    Anyway love the thread and the whole site really, very compulsive!!
    Will aim for 2 1/2 stone by end of may (family holiday). Here goes!! xx
    :money::money::money::money:
    I love to save money
  • oooooohhhhh can I join too? 7lbs in a month seems loads - only lost 4lbs this month! :o (well actually, I lost 5lb, but then put another on this week!) But I'm up for a challenge!

    Would be great if you guys could squeeze me in! ;):D

    JemJam, congratulations! :) That is good going.

    Today I have walked for an hour and a half as well as my trip to the gym, I'm just about to do some weights and 50 lunges. I've eaten very sensibly too, I had a lovely stir fry for dinner and haven't snacked. Let's hope it continues! :D

    Oh - forgot to weigh myself again properly and see what's going on with my weird new scales!! I'll do it later...
