What a great motivational post! Count me in please I would like to start with 1 stone. Will be following SW with old books, but not going to class. Will dust off the exercise machines and DVD's.
Just got to find some scales so I know where I am starting from. Have avoided having them in the house for some reason.......!"If you want to feel rich, just count the things you have that money can't buy":j0 -

Hi
I've just weighed and stayed the same. 0/28lb
Must admit I haven't been trying as much as I could have. On saying that, I usually have a glass (or 2!) of wine every night. This week I haven't had a drink other than during a family meal out on Wednesday evening so I haven't done too badly. Must drink more water though.
Exercise was out of the window - I've decided to go swimming at least twice a week but it's been far too cold!! (Or perhaps I'm not so committed!!).
I've decided to weigh in every Friday so hopefully I'll lose some poundage by next Friday!!0
