Hi there...

Hope you all dont mind me hijacking!?!?!?!

The thread is so long - are you all trying to lose weight eithout the aid of a slimming club??

I have put on 3 stone since i met my OH and even though he loves me to death (i hope!!!) I feel so fat and ugle - non of my clothes will fit anymore and i've gone up from 11 stone to 14!! :eek: (my height is about 5ft 8)

I could really do with some tips as i really cant afford to go to a slimming club!!

Thanks Guys - sorry again for jumping in !?!?!?:o

thanks smokybabe. I need to start using pedometer again - had certainly helped me last time.

At the start of last week I decided that I was big enough and I needed to lose weight. Ive managed to lose 4lbs in 6 days. This is probably over the top but I felt I needed to kick start my efforts. If I lose 3lbs this week Ill be happy. I plan to lose a stone at least. I dont like the way I look, my knees hurt and I always feel bloated so I had to do something. I keep track of my calorie intake on the pc so I know where I am and keeps me focused. I never thought that I could do it but for the first time in a long time I'm determined to suceed in something.

Good luck and well done Ebeneezer :T :T :T
