My family are all smaller and eat what ever they want and drink wine to high heaven! Grrr!

Em88

I don't think it helps either way really, whether they are bigger or smaller. My BM is much smaller than me but then she has no body confidence at all so I guess I would rather be me really. Just a smaller version of me haha

Em thats so good though, from 18 to 14, so carry on that! I was at size 16 at uni during my PhD as my stupid ex kept feeding me KFCs all the time and when i decided to go to SW, he even tried then to ruin it for me, but imanaged to lose weight, and then i lost him (woo hoo) and then went to the gym properly. but since my meningitis years and years ago, its been up and down.:( i want to try and just stay one weight.. i m happy that i am a size 12 (well sometimes) but i would rather a 10 as according to my height (5''3), that would be healthier! missions hey?

I thought a dress size was meant to be around 10 lb though but I have lost 38 lb and only gone down 2 dress sizes. And only one in certain things, but that is down to my bust which hasn't changed.

My OH doesn't care what size I am, which is nice but not overly helpful at times. HE has put on weight since we have been together too. But to be fair we were 14 and 15 and are now 23 and 24 so its understandable that we have put on weight really.

It's really hard to stay at a level weight isn't it. I've got a couple on inches on you Rups so I think I can have a few more lbs. I think if I got to a size 10 (especially if my bust stays the same) I would look out of proportion. Plus I am an hour glass figure, which I love, its just when I put on a few too many lbs that I loose that shape and just become generally rather round haha.

Hi Everyone,

I'm probably a 12-14 at the mo and would like to get back down to a size 8-10. I'm only 5ft so need to get back down.

have only lost 9.5lbs at SW so far - would love to have lost 1.5 stone by Crimbo.

Hey hadley. thats great though and yes we can try and do somehting before xmas.. i really want to so can wear a lovely dress (from next i have my eye on now).. lets all do it!!! ah Em, hour glass figures are in (hehe because i have one too).. i know men love that, but like you said, its us being happy with it. when i gain weight, it shows immediately on my belly and my face! i have such a round face as it is, and when i gain, people tell me that my face looks rounder. haha

9.5lb is good though Hadley. Keep positive, it really helps.

I had my normal porridge for breakfast and am now having lunch which is carrot and cucmber sticks, a mini babybell, some twiglets, an apple, orange and some pineapple.

Not got a clue what I will do for dinner...

Thanks Guys. I know I should stay positive, but its hard work sometimes. 2.5lbs is the most I've lost in a week its normally about 1 - 1.5lbs. Though do appreciate that I am somewhat naughty and have never followed the plan 100% since I started.

Em88

1-1.5lb a week is good though. Slower weight loss is more maintainable so they say. Plus you are still allowing yourself treats so more likely to stick with it as you aren't denying yourself everything.

I've just booked another hotel for our honeymoon. It's all very exciting heehee
