Makes complete sense Code. I'm quite a bit away from my healthy weight, at size 20. I want to lose three stone by the end of May (around a pound a week) - and that would put me at a size 14/16 I think.

I'm hoping I can carry on after I wed, and get to around a 12/14. I've been a 10 before - and I looked awful, although I thought I looked great at the time! But I'm big-boned (hilariously over-used excuse!) so although I was a healthy BMI I was very scrawny/bony in places. (eg I was just under 10 stone and my Dr told me I could do with putting a bit of weight on!)

What's everyone else's weight goals?

ah ms, i am big-boned too so even at size 12, i look big.. i used to be a 8/10 in those days but i think if i can be a healthy 10, i will be over the moon. am just at that plateau at the mo and not losing. sometimes i gain a bit here and there. :-(

I want to lose about half a stone but I've reached the weight where my weight plateaus and I get bored. Currently a size 12 in most things, except my wedding dress which is a 14. Curses to wedding dress designers and their small sizes. I am tall though and broad shouldered so I'm never going to be skinny.

Oh yeah, should mention that I'm also fighting against a hormonal condition that makes it really tough to lose weight.)

Rups32

oh yes code. i was told wedding sizes are always a size bigger. i guess that makes me feel better! :0) i wish i could have fitted into a 12 now but it hides my belly (it has those sie ruffle bits if you know what i mean), so i am actually quite happy. :0) will see how it looks in 2 weeks time.

MsShopper

Now, half a stone to lose sounds brilliant! But I know from past experience that the closer you get to your goal, the more your body fights it. Pesky metabolism! :mad:

Rups32

groan. i give up (today only). lol

I think I'd feel better if it wasn't for my mother. Eg. I tried on the dress in the shop when we picked it up and it felt great. The shop woman explained that it was slightly too big and falling below where it should at the back and I was happy. Then I tried it on at home with my mum putting me into it and she started going on about it being too tight and me needing control underwear. It was the same day. She didn't get that its meant to be tight because can be strapless and if it were loose it would fall down. Made me feel horrible though.
