    but it's a loss!:j

    We had a chap tonight who was also disappointed with his first weeks loss. Our consultant said that sometimes losses take a while to show - and if you have another good week on top of the last good week it'll continue to show (and it does-just as a bad week catches up with you ;) )

    The first time I did SW (nearly 8 years ago :eek:) I lost 0.5lb in my first week and was totally devestated. Criedmy eyes out in front of a packed "New Years resolution" class. But I stuck with it and lost 4.5lbs in my second wk (and 3.5stone in 5 months!)

    Stick with it hun and you'll do grand! :D :grouphug:

    Thank you. Im glad someone knows teh disappointment I feel, even if it is totally unreasonable! I did SW a year ago and lost 5lbs in my first week! So this feels a bit crud. Onwards now, and I will have a 100% week this week!

    I think I read on minimins that you are a bride-to-be too? Whens your date? Mines Oct 2010!

    Oh no!! Don't sabotage yourself!! :grouphug:

    I bought myself a Double Decker as a treat tonight to eat in the car on my way home from SW :rolleyes:. It's still there as a) I'd got my pizza treat planned and included in last wks syns and b) I knew that as much as the 'idea' of the taste was tempting I knew I wouldn't enjoy it. I'm doing that a lot recently!
  • WTH is happening in that smilie? LOL!

    I know, I need to stop. This is exactly why I quit SW last time - I kept self-sabotaging!

    went for my second weigh in yesterday and lost 3 pounds! thats 5 pounds in total. i only need to lose 12 pounds so i very surprised it is coming off so quickly.

    just wondering - does everyone go to class alone or with friends. i go alone and like it that way (no one to put me off what i am trying to do!)

    i can imagine if my friends notice i have lost weight they will want to jump on the bandwagon. i don't want anyone i know to come to my group!!

    I go it alone and like it too - I have enough problem with OH trying to force wine into me!

    I think the rate you're going pebblespop you'll be maintaining by the time your friends join! ;) Well done you.

    Off to bed for me as I think this cold is trying to take a hold!
