    Of course! :)

    Thanks.

    Well I have A LOT to lose so I'm trying to break it down into smaller goals.

    My first BIG goal is to lose 2 stone but I've broken that down as follows - lose 7lbs, then 14lbs, then lose 21lbs and then onto the 28lbs.

    I'm on my third week of WW and to be honest I was really down in the dumps over the weekend as my second weigh in only showed a loss of 1lb. I know a loss is better than a gain and all that but where I weigh so much I had expected to lose more. But oh well.

    EDIT: so far I've lost 4lbs

    Well that's a good start, well done! :T Also, you may be losing inches too, so don't be too disheartened. :)

    I have a lot to lose too, but not worth thinking about the big amount too much otherwise I'll get fed up have to go and buy myself a cake. :o:rotfl:

    Oh definately no inches yet lol.

    Hopefully in a few more weeks I'll have lost the first 7lbs. I've got my reward waiting for me at home already (new mascara) - I'm just not allowed to use it yet.

    "Everything in moderation"

    At WW last week, a woman was saying that during the week she'd fancied a snickers bar (7 points) but thought "I'll be good" and had a weight watchers mini victoria sponge instead (3 points). Only that didn't hit the spot, so she had another. Still didn't do it, so she had the snickers as well. :rotfl: My point (in a long winded way) is that you shouldn't deprive yourself of 'stuff', rather control the amount that you have :o
