Weight Watchers free trial challenge!!

NBirdy

Lol tara! Hope you've made up now.

Ailuro, how are you feeling now hun?

plzhelpmesave!, well done you for finding inspiration! Are you going to re-join/continue your membership?

3lbs off for me this week, got my '25 lbs' star, I can only think it's because it was such a busy week - I had possibly my worst week eating-wise so far Can't quite believe I'm now only 10lbs away from the maximum weight I'd be happy at :eek:

plzhelpmesave!

Nbirdy - well done hun, nearly 2 stone down in 3 months! hope you ge t loads of compliments over x-mas!

Tara - hope you and OH have made up hun x

Im doing ok - have cut down portions sizes and measuring some stuff - but still not doing things wholeheartedley - hence no real loss for me!! not doing any excercise either at the moment - been using work as an excuse i think!

New year new start, althogh i am gonna try to be good in the holidays.

Final weigh in for me - we're off to Orlando on Sunday, am logged in from my local library as our pc is dead!:eek:

Anyway, as promised - here's my start and end weights

Start weight 17stone 6 and a half pounds
End weight 15 stone 13 and a half pounds

So a total loss of one and a half stone - I had got down to 15st 12 but being in hospital and being completely inactive hasn't helped.

I'm almost recovered, still walking like an old lady, but I survived and it will be worth it in the end, hopefully wandering round the Disney theme parks for a fortnight will counteract the lush food they have....:o

Have a wonderful Christmas everyone, thanks again for all the support that was there in each and every pounds we lost between us.

plzhelpmesave!

have a brill time ailuro! u deserve it!

WI today, and I am 132.7lbs - 1.1lbs on!!! :eek:

But I am not going to be deterred. I had my work Christmas do and a couple of nights out so that probably explains it. I've made eating plans for Christmas, involving having a little bit of what I fancy ONLY. I am going to eat like a Frenchwoman, oh yes! No pigging out though, it only makes me feel overstuffed at the time and bloated later. So hopefully I can start the New Year no heavier than I am now. That's my aim for the next week and a half TBH!!

Are we keeping the thread going after the free trial ends? I hope so. Is anyone sticking with WW?

p.s. this little gem was posted by Valentina2 in the December dieting thread, it is very useful.

p.s. thanks for all your kind words. We did make up, but now we've sort of fallen out again and things are not looking good TBH. I am going to take a few days over Christmas to think about everything and decide whether I want to be with him or not.

Bad timing I know...

flea72, hope you make it worth it! I have no scales here so will WI at the end of the week when I get back from my mum's. I am not overly confident TBH!

plzhelpmesave!

morning all! hope you all had a great xmas and looking forward to 2010!

Tara, hope things are ok and you've sorted out what's happening with you and OH.

Flea, just reminded me about my subscription too!! think i'm a day late too, took it out on the 28th iirc? never mind, better make proper use of it in jan!

Had a bit of an epiphany in primark yesterday (first time ventured out into town - madness!!) looked at all the think people wearing the trendy, cheap clothes in size 10 and 12 and thought that there is nothing stopping me from looking good too - except myself! if i really want to be able to wear size 12, then i blooming well can, i just need to get thinner - which is do-able!

I hate shopping for a size 16 and and hate feelin fat and frumpy. and the only one who can make the change in me IS me.... I wore a size 14 primark dress yesterday with a size 18 jackets - fitted bomber style, and i looked pretty darn good and felt fantastic! I also felt the like the old me again - was full of jokes and life and having a laff...

So, for me 2010 is gonna be about looking good again, and caring about how i look and feel. Partly linked to me being back at work and wanting to look presentable and feel confident again..... so it all kicks off in the next few days!!

happy new year to everyone, and hope we all have a fab 2010 xxxx
